Who is your favorite Mutant from X-Men: The Last Stand?
I am going to list mainly characters from this movie. If you want to give an honorable mention to a character not in this or any of the other movies, go ahead.
I went Cyclops, Angel and Iceman. I like the old school X-Men. I would have gone Colossus too, but I figured three was enough. Wanted to pick Angel too, but I liked him more as Archangel in the X-Factor years.
You're going to see a lot of people on the Gambit bandwagon. I liked him until he turned into the next Wolverine in the since of fanboy popularity.
Cable, Havok, Cannonball, Forge, Bishop, Multiple Man all ruled.
Thunderbird and Sunfire were lame.
In the comics Rogue can fly and had superhuman strength. She sucked Ms. Marvel's power out of her until she nearly died and the power stayed with Rogue.
I have this comic where Rogue planted one on Colossus and then turned all metal and whooped butt.
He's the popular answer. I like Wolverine, but it was one of things where everyone did as a kid so I went another way. I was glad when the original X-Men got togther to form X-Factor. That ruled.
Rogue and Gambit had a romance in the comics, which was cool. I think Iceman went loopy for a whle, still cool though. He had to wear this lame belt to keep him from going crazy with the ice.
HECK, I remember that comic where Rogue kisses Colossus. She's a frisky cat, you know. She's kissed every single member of the X-Men, male and female... Well, I'm not sure about the female part in terms of canonized Marvel Universe-dom, but in MY fantasies...
I chose Rogue (NOT from the movie. ONLY from the comics. To tell the truth, I think I've got the perfect girl to play Rogue: Missy Peregrym, the girl from Stick It and a short-lived TV show called Black Sash...), Colossus (gotta love 'im. I remember after he fought with Riptide and snapped the twerp's neck. Then he got real sick, and Magneto tried to heal him using magnetism, but he ended up paralyzing Colossus instead. Then, over time, Colossus healed, but he was exponentially stronger than he used to be. I remember in a comic that I still have, he was stuck in his armored form, needed to use a payphone out in some remote place, couldn't fit in the booth, reached in with his index finger to dial while he held the receiver in his other hand, and when he pressed the button, he accidentally wrecked the phone. He then got mad, flung his arms out to his sides, and destroyed the whole booth. Good times...) and Wolverine. He's just the man, but his powers have changed with his popularity over the years. He's not supposed to have superstrength (as was the case in the 80's, I have the Marvel Universe issue to prove it... "Wolverine possesses the strength of an average human male who engages in intense physical exercise on a regular basis...").
I voted for just what I got from this movie. My picks were Wolverine, Iceman, and Magneto.
My favorite from the comics was by far Rogue. I was disappointed that she got such a small role in this movie. All she did was get jealous, leave for a while, and come back with her power gone
"Man is a marvelous curiosity ... he thinks he is the Creator's pet ... he even believes the Creator loves him; has a passion for him; sits up nights to admire him; yes and watch over him and keep him out of trouble. He prays to him and thinks He listens. Isn't it a quaint idea." Mark Twain
