And another news brief from the Department of Stupid Ways to Invalidate Stupid Plot Developements in Comic Books:
Nightcrawler never went to the seminary and got ordained as a priest. He only THOUGHT he went to the seminary and got ordained as a priest. It seems as if his mind was being tampered with by some crackpot anti-mutant religious organization. And since it apparently never REALLY came up in conversation ever with anyone, they all just found out and said, “Duh, you were never a priest, blue dude.”
On a similar note, I the only thing I really minded about X2 (which for the most oart I thought was lots of fun, with plenty of nods thrown in to the nerds of us out there who care about whether or not the government is after Franklin Richards) was Nightcrawler. The teleportation effects were great, but the character had nothing of what I always like about Nightcrawler the wiry, wise-cracking swashbuckler with the mischievous smile and furry skin, the one who always seemed curiously sexy. The movie’s nervous, Jesus-freaky version with the goony pants and the brandings instead of the fuzz just left me cold, when not cringing in dismay.
I agree, Nightcrawler was tres whiny in comparison to happy go lucky. But that opening sequence was KILLER! Now I gots to have me some Dark Phoenix.
Hey, this is Edie, Jaqui’s housemate.
I just read that x-men comic you’re talking about-and I see your point.
Good thing you only payed 25 cents for it!

i think they did a fantastic job on n.c. in the movie, but, he could have been alot more happy-go-lucky like he really is! but other than that, it was great!
I AGREE, NIGHTCRAWLER IS MY FAVORITE X-MEN AND I WAS DISSAPPOINTED WHEN I SAW HIM IN X-2.I REALLY WANTED HIM TO BE MORE LIVELY AND NOT SO……MOPY.
