I've just re-watched X-2.

God, but I'd forgotten how damn good that movie is. I love the way that even through things going asploady, there's still this wonderful characterization (Pyro getting in touch with his inner psycopath, anyone?), and oooh, but yummy. The entire movie. And Wolvering getting all sweaty while hunting people and then using his leather uniforms. I fucking love the leather uniforms.

Of course, now that I've become the shameless little shipper that I am, I watched it with my SUPER SLASHER EYES (registered)! But even without that, I just payed much more attention to the baby!X-Men, meaning: Bobby, John and Rogue. The way they interacte with each other is just so intriguing, and seeing John looking so alone breaks my heart.

Love, love, love this movie. Why the fuck did Bryan Singer had to go and elope with Superman of all people? Clark Kent is not as cool as Tom Welling makes him to be. Seriously. *sigh*

AND THERE'S NIGHTCRAWLER. That alones makes the movie. I truly want to have his little blue-tailed kids. (And now I wanna go and re-watch whatever little X-Men: Evolution I taped even when the translation to 'Girls dig teh fuzzy guy' doesn't pair up XDD)

Right. After this big pointless entry, I'll just saunter off to go and watch Satan's Pit. Can't believe we're already on episode 9 ;-;

I know, I just have a serious addiction to this movies XD (I'm still a bit mad that Gambit didn't show up, though, he's the coolest thing ever ^-^)

Didn't you love the flying house? I know I did :0

Oh the flying house was awesome! I was continually amazed by what can be done with technology these days. For example, the moving of the San Fransisco Bridge. Totally awesome.

Moving making seems to have no limits anymore.

Yay for the X-men! But the real slashy subtext is Xavier/Magneto. ;-)

i don't know what Singer was thinking not returning for X3... and for that damn Superman movie, of all things. grahhh. :\

but leather outfits and Wolverine, what? YES. XD

aaaand lastly, my icon. Magneto is dressed like a damn lumberjack and there is a little butterfly floating around them as they hug. it's from a scan someone sent me. yes, Magneto/Xavier = canon. :P

Apparently, X-3's director (can't rembember the naaaame) was supposed to do Superman and they switched in the last minute and I was not a happy camper. *is grumpy*

I kinda adore your icon, really *stares*. It's so pretty and wonderful. Is it from Ultimate X-Men? Man, I'm dying to get that series...

i can't recall his name, either. i guess he just wasn't important enough or skilled enough to earn a spot in my memory. :P

hee! thanks, doll. :D i don't know where the scan came from but it was too good not to make the icon out of. XD

Yeah, X-2 was cool; The scene with Bobby's parents alone
("Oh, and what do you teach?" - "Art") - priceless.
Yes, I like Nightcrawler; I mean, a German priest, how frakking cool is that? Plus, in the comics he also has a strong affinity to Kitty, which helps in my case. I'm still wondering where he went during X-3, especially since it would have been a one-sentence thing ("Oh, and Kurt?" - "He's doing well in Germany.").

Hehe, I giggled so much at that. :) That, and at Magneto's "You really do think everything's about you, don't you?" at Wolverine. XD

So it's also in the comics? I adored Kitty/Kurt in Evo, although everyone says they killed Kitty's character (but hey, I liked her)...

Yeaaah, some continuity would've been cool. It would've been cooler, though, getting to see Kurt teaching philosophy at Xavier's XD

Na, not so much; he's more of a best friend. (He calls her Kätzchen. Please, fanbrats. note the 'ä'. And don't use apologies like "But, but, he calls her Katzchen in the comic. No.)
Or, to steal shamelessly from her Wikipedia entry:
"Initially wearing an old-style X-Men uniform, Kitty took the codename "Sprite." Later dressing in more brightly-colored outfits she called herself "Ariel". From the time of their first meeting, she developed a crush on her teammate Colossus. Her initial reaction to Nightcrawler, however, was much less positive. Terrified of his nightmarish appearance, Kitty avoided him whenever possible and flinched whenever he spoke to her. Undeterred, Kurt patiently continued trying to make friends as he "Liked her too much to give up." It was not until an encounter with the lonely Morlock mutant Caliban (an outcast even among outcasts) that she realized her attitude about appearances was childish. Consequently, Kitty and Kurt became the best of friends and have remained constant even when all their other friends died, abandoned them or were scattered across the globe and/or various parallel universes."

Yes, they are really bests friends forever.
Wolverine is a mentor to her (similar to what he was to Rogue in the movies.). He even taught her Krav Naga (which, combined with her skill, which is *definitely* underrated, makes her *deadly*.)

Her romantic potential seems to be Colossus.

What's very funny? In the Ultimate-verse, she's dating Peter Parker at the moment. They're cute together. Cute, as in, OTP. And Colossus is no issue, since he's more interested in Wolverine. (Heh. No, Wolvie doesn't know. But Piotr is rather... protective. Funny issue, that one.)

Oooh, that makes a lot of sense, really. *sigh* I wish I could go and get all the comics, I'd love to see how all the different characters evolve with time. And awww, best friends, they're just so wonderful. :)

Really? Peter? I so want to read that now! How many issues exist so far, anyway? And hehe, I kinda giggled a lot at Colossus liking Wolverine XD

X-2 is my FAVORITE THING EVER! That movie rocks so hard.

SUPER SLASHER EYES

I think every girl comes equipped with a pair of those, lol! We seem to pick the slashiness out of everything.
