I just really want to see my two favorite characters Rogue and Gambit in a x-men movie. I think that it will be a hit with their relationship.

Storm, my favourite x-men character, she is one of the most powerful x-men. i think there can be very good storylines that are based on storm being the lead character and also storm and wolverine goes hand in hand, she is the most passionate character and deserves supremacy as she is a queen.Storm needs to get a chance to showoff her mighty powers, she can have the whole world at her mercy. She is also the most appropriate one to keep wolverine in check. the actress NEED to change, Halle Berry don’t do storm justice, no offence i luv her but not as storm.I put plenty of thought in it and i think VANESSA WILLIAMS is the best actress for the role.Rougue and Gambit rocks and are inseparable, they are the real deal and cannot be changed.Mystic is always a blast to see & Rebecca Romijn did justice to the character.

@Lj- although I think Gambitbis deserving of a large role in a move, I disagree with Jim having his own spinoff for the simple fact that he’s not a major character although a fan favorite. His interactions with other mutants are comical at best and he doesnt have a nemisis or arch rival. Storm on the other is an Omega Level mutant, 2nd in command of the x-men in the absence of Cyclops, and a one time leader of the morlocks. Her powers rival that of Thor with the exception of godly strength, speed and endurance and she can control at
Isomeric conditions on the entire planet. She can use oxygen whereever they may be. Space underwater and the only time that she is unpredictable is when in am enclosed space because she is claustrophobic and will panic and lose total control. I agree about not making a Storm spin-off if Halle Berry is the actress. And I don’t want to hear anything Bout her winning Oscar. There are at least 3 other actress I can think of that would be a better storm. Angela Bassett (Tina Turner- what’s love got to do with it), Sanaa Lathon (AVP), and or Gabrielle Union. Storm is deserving of a spinoff

I think a Gambit Origins is a great idea, however I don’t see how Rogue could be envolved in it. Rouge and Gambit did not have a thing until after Gambit became part of the X-Men and since the first X-men movie made her a naive little girl without her gained powers I don’t see it working out very well. They also introduced Gambit in Wolverine Origins which puts Gambit around 16 or so years older than Rogue. I didn’t care for Taylor as Gambit he needs the cajun catch phrases and Gambit was suave, tall thin, very cut and a thief. Sadly I did not see that in Taylor’s Gambit, however in his own movie maybe he can pull it off.

A Storm movie is a very bad idea, even though I do agree that storm is a power character I do not believe she is one of the strongest X-Men.
We all know that Jean is the strongest X-Men; then Wolverine and Rogue. Storm may have been one of the smartest but lets face it a Storm Origins movie especially with Halle Berry would be super boring.

Look, I super want a storm movie. Here’s the thing, halle berry should be nowhere near it. She’s a great actress but she should never been given the part of storm in the first place. Pick an strong tall and regal actress that can play a true queen. I’ve been reading comics for a long time and I’m tired of seeing actors put into a movie because their popular at the time.

Personaly… Storm origin would be a great idea, starting off as Teen Storm she devolps her powers, like Angle in X3, by floating in the air of south Africa. Also the vengeince of her parents deaths, she goes after their killers. It’ll be a good colaboration. Changes: more skin, long white hair, and he powers should be more ficious.

Ok so im just gonna say a few things about the Gambit spin off thing… 1st they really need to some how get Rogue in there. It would make me and soooooooo many more people happy because i hated the Rogue and Bobby fling! They should also go into Belladona and her marige to him. 2nd I think they choice the guy that played Gambit really well, now i know they have a few quickz to work out but if you look at the actors that could of been him there arent any other good actors.

I think a Gambit movie would be cool. Especially if it revolves around Gambit being stolen from Sinister as a baby, and used by a mutant whos power is kinda like a vampire where he sucks the life out of people, and then Jean luc (the thieves guild leader) rescues him and raises him as his own son. It would be cool to see him raised as a thief, and see the rivalry between the assasins guild and the thieves guild.
I think Gambits story is good enough on its own, and if he gets expelled from the guild after doing something really stupid, he then meets rogue and falls in love with her.

I agree with whoever said that the writing for the Xmen movies is just not up to par. I do believe they water down character like storm, rogue, iceman, just to give more focus on certain characters. I don’t understand hollywood not wanting to give a good quality Xmen movie that shows all the xmen true strength and who they really are as they were created in the comics. It just suck! Maybe one day ill become a film director and screenplay writer and ill be able to give Xmen what it needs

Well Gambit has always been my favorite X-men character even 20 years ago when Wolverine was very popular.

I just want to see more Gambit in a movie. Solo or not.

I would prefer a reboot of the series and have Gambit in the team already and also having that romantic chemistry with rogue. and that great competitive relationship him and wolverine had.

First Class was a great movie but it needs to be a reboot.

Storm also needs to be African. or atleast sound african.

Storm is in my Top 3, but it would be hard to do a spinoff on her without it being boring. They would have to add quite a few characters to the movie and possibly a story of when she went AWOL and was the Leader of the MOrlocks after defeating Marrow. But they would have to make a movie that would show all of her powers that could possibly match Thor’s without the Super strength and Super Speed. They would definitely need to go far away from Halle Berry as Storm. I would prefer Angela Bassett, Sanaa Lathon or Gabrielle Union or and I’m reaching with this one, Beyonce Knowles.

I fear if there were to be a Gambit & Rogue movie I might embarrass myself with fanatical screaming…. and that would be awesome!

Gambit and Rogue <3

I personally feel that they should do a spinoff for storm i am big fan of her alone every since i was younger she was one of my favorites. I think they should do it AS LONG as they have a good script and a GREAT director to put it out. She is one of the strongest and most ampped up characters from the comics so why not just do it and do it right? She is a main character storm deserves a spinoff

taylor did a great job with gambit. there should be a gambit movie with taylor playing him. there are enough fans out there for this movie to work. taylor should be allowed to do gambit darker. after all gambit does have a dark side. his roots with the theives guild and the streets would be awsome to see. i followed gambit since he first came out.

give taylor some slack people. he did a great job with gambit. i’d go see the movie over and over again with taylor playing him. after all gambit does have his own series, why not his own movie?

I agree, if anyone who knew anything about the comics and the cartoon, they would know that Storm was the strongest and most powerful of them all. Her ability to command the earthly elements was astounding and she was respected by all the other X Men. She was the one they looked to for guidance and answers. Wolverine was a beast with basically no control. Storm is the glue that helped keep the group together. Damn Hollywood has stripped the powers away from from all the strong characters so that they can build up Wolverine. Of course they water down Storm’s character because she is a female and she is black. Hollywood is not ready to showcase females as powerful superhero’s or heroines I should say, especially not black ones. They want to send the image that in order to be a real super hero you have to be some muscled up white guy. If they had respect for the other super hero’s that were women and those that were black then Wonder Woman would have had her movie by now. Some of these other characters that nobody see’s on the screen would have movies. I am tired of Wolverine and I am tired of these fake ass Hollywood created storylines that basically pan out to a love story. Hell if you must make these movies show us variety hell lets see a real ICEMAN on screen or a real Gambit.

Storm is not weak in the movies because it Halley Berry – it’s because of the script. Anyone who knows about Storm knows she was far more powerful than portrayed in the movie – much more powerful and popular than the ones they have pumped up, characters who had no popularity at all in the comics. The most powerful characters in comics were featured in animated media – Storm was one of them… where was Phoenix in our afterschool cartoons? Nowhere and nobody cared.

Beast was more interesting and more popular than Wolverine – yet movie after movie it’s all about Wolverine. I am actually tired of the X-Men movies and it’s narrow focus, not to mention taking liberties to virtually destroy characters for whatever subjective reasons they may have. Magneto was not an octogenarian in the comics – and I was sorely disappointed in the role choice no matter what the pedigree of the actor. And the Nightcrawler I read about did not have overtones of a conflicted bible freak with gay tendencies – as most of the male characters, weakened so that Wolverine could look like he was the strongest character. They should re-name the series “Wolverine’s Lookin’ for a Mutant to Love” – because it isn’t the X-Men, it’s a love drama disguised as a superheor movie – and a free ride for Hugh Jackman.
