    It was kind of an obvious set up I thought... but it was still pretty cool.

    Oh yeah, as soon as the post-credit sequence started I pretty much saw it coming, but still.

    Well I thought it was going to be one of three things:

    1. Zombie Xavier.
    2. Magneto finding he still has the power to move chess pieces with his mind
    3. The Cure wearing off while Iceman and Rogue are "gettin' jiggy with it".



    I was almost right.

    Be seeing you,

    Magnus Darcrider

    Is it just my wishful thinking, or...Did Magneto actually make that chess piece wobble a little at the end?

    And...The setup for Xavier's 'relocation' I thought could've been more subtle... it was just kinda random like, "here's a guy, no brain higher function but the body's still okay - ;)"... I wonder WHO that could possibly be handy for?

    Well I didn't think on the vegie man too much before right at the end. But yeah, I don't really know who Juggernaut is either, and I've read like 4 comics in my life, 3 of them xmen! :)

    And yes..wobbling chess piece.

    The chess piece wobbled, yes. I thought it was a great thing to go to the credits on, very cool.

    I'd have thought that Rogue would have changed her mind about the cure, and I was positive that she would start draining him when they touched in her room. Some may see that as corny, but I would think it more of an X Man thing to do.

    I have been all for Cyclops ever since the first movie. Back then I had only really seen the cartoon, but Cyclops was the leader (behind Xavier). I know that Hugh Jackman becoming A-lost had a lot to do with Wolverine becoming the main X Man in the movies, and I love how he plays the character. The second movie was where I really felt that. Cyclops has been a wasted character in the movies, his only real character depth has been his grief.

    But I agree with Magnus and BigBossNass. I enjoyed this movie a lot! And I really didn't notice the "de-ageing" of Charles and Erik. I took note of Erik and thought "they should have made him look younger".

    Yeah I'm reading about the cg Patrick thinking..wow, how stupid am I not to notice that. I just thought it was nicely lit :)

    Yeah I was disappointed that ther wasn't more of Cyclops in this one too. Grief can bea powerful weapon too ( see ZOE in Serenity) I thought he'd be kicking a$$.

    You scored as Rogue.

    Rogue is a strong but tragic personality. She loves Gambit. Because of her mutant powers, she cannot touch anyone without hurting them. Therefore, she longs for human contact. However, this southern gal's strong personality has allowed her to deal with this. Powers: Absorbs lifeforce and powers by touch, Super strength, and flight

    Rogue 80%
    Jean Grey 75%
    Storm 70%
    Gambit 50%
    Nightcrawler 45%
    Iceman 45%
    Wolverine 45%
    Emma Frost 35%
    Cyclops 25%
    Beast 25%
    Colossus 25%

    Hehehe Rogue all the way!

    I did love this movie, love Jean Grey's costume! Though I do feel the first one is still the best. I agree that the pacing was much too quick, but it was still an exciting movie that I thoroughly enjoyed.

    However, I have to comment that I believe Cyclops is not dead, and that Rogue has not lost her powers. The cure can not last forever, she will get it back!

    So did anybody stay until after the end credits?

    I usually do but for some reason I left before and I just found out there was something extra at the end!

    If anyone know what it is can you fill me in?

    ICEMAN

    Iceman is a very powerful but volitile X-man. His ego and reluctance to follow orders means that he often clashes with Cyclops. Despite being immature sometimes, he's very popular with the ladies and is an extremely powerful X-Man. Powers: Can lower the temperature in areas around him. Basically, he has a near limitless ability to freeze things and make massive amounts of ice.

    You scored as Nightcrawler.

    Nightcrawler is a very symbolic X-Man. He is persecuted by society because of his devilish looks, but it is his faith in God that gives him strength. He is a very gentle x-man but he does know how to fight and he enjoys fencing. Powers: Teleportation

    After a tie-breaker I ended up with Frost.

    Emma Frost is a former enemy of the X-Men but has joined them. She finds certain rules about not reading minds without permission too confining, and she still retains a bit of a bad-girl side. Some x-men are not certain of her alligence, and for good reason. Powers: Telepathy, Can turn her skin into Diamond, Psychic persuasion.

    Emma Frost 75%
    Jean Grey 75%
    Rogue 70%
    Beast 70%
    Iceman 70%
    Cyclops 65%
    Storm 65%

    LUIGI:

    Sorry for not knowing names, but Xavier made it into that braindead guy's body and greeted that lady doctor as she walked in one day.

    And The cure is not permanant L_C, Magneto moved the chess piece.

    You scored as Jean Grey

    Jean Grey is likely the most powerful X-Man. She loves Cyclops very much but she has a soft spot for Wolverine. She's psychic so she can sense how others are feeling and tries to help them. She also has to control her amazing powers or the malevolent Phoenix entity could take control of her and wreak havok. Powers: Telekinetic, Telepathic

    Jean Grey 80%
    Emma Frost 80%
    Storm 65%
    Cyclops 55%
    Colossus 50%
    Wolverine 50%
    Rogue 45%
    Nightcrawler 40%
    Iceman 35%

    Finally got around to seeing it last night.

    Thought: Was the post-credits scene an "ooh!", or actually a double ooh? Maybe I missed something, but was there a significance in the recognition? [face_thinking]

    Anywhoo...

    You scored as Colossus.

    Colossus is the strongest X-Man physically. His love for his family and his sister Illiana make him strong. Although he can be prone to fits of rage, he has a big heart under that organic steel skin. Powers: Can change his skin into organic steel making him nearly invunerable and exponentially increasing his strength

    Colossus 85%

    Wolverine 75%
    Iceman 70%
    Jean Grey 65%
    Beast 65%
    Rogue 65%
    Gambit 60%

    Emma Frost 60%
    Cyclops 55%
    Nightcrawler 30%



    Dang it, I so wanted to be Wolverine.:D
