You do realize Jean is more powerful than Professor X, even without the Phoenix Force. She is an Omega Level mutant. Xavier isn't.

That stupid term from X-men 3 and forcing me to go google it. It was used one time in 1986 then all the way in 2001.
professor x is even listed as one also to go with your own counter
en.wikipedia.org
without that dumb 2000s garbage just like the rest of 2010s garbage comics they put out to have a “see see it’s in the comics so it can be in the movies” professor x has always been the measuring stick for mind control and Jean had some but also combined with being able to move stuff with her mind as well it was only with phoenix was she more powerful
I haven’t touched comics since the 90s as to me X-men is then and the animated show and anything beyond was just gay alphabet stuff or to reinforce what they wanted in movies but are interchangeable to subvert and take over to make theirs

As I mentioned a ways back... Magneto wasn't always a Holocaust survivor. THat was reconned into his character in the early 80's in the Christ Claremont era IIRC.
That's incorrect. In his original incarnation (No religious/holocaust backstory) he was still a mutant supremacist, ran the brotherhood of evil mutant. (Although now they'd have to be called the "folks of misunderstood socio-genetic background" but still). You don't need to be a persecuted Jew to have pattern recognition go into overdrive and decide all the "others" must be eliminated.. (Hell, just go check the Politics forum here for examples. heh) That's exactly what Magneto was about, Charles was the "get along guy". Essentially Malcom X v. Martin Luther King for mutants.

Yeah, I remember going in to see it knowing what I know. Versus Mrs Haus and a lot of our friends who went along who ... well... really didn't.
I even tried to prep those who would get the reference with "Just know, this is going to be the "The Empire Strikes Back" of this series....but worse."

Thank you. That triggered me as much as if someone said "but Catwoman is supposed to be black!" or "but Iceman is supposed to be gay!"

I’ve debated what I consider the first cat woman retcon. The dumb show in the 60’s or Frank Miller who clearly reimagined her as a black hooker or something. Been a while since I read it.

Fiege said its not the full cast, so I expect Mystique, Beast and maybe Angel, they will save Iceman and Kitty Pryde for a sequel. Prob get a Magneto cameo that is uncredited as well.

I wonder if they'll have Storm saving african villagers dying of thirst by conjuring rain.
Infamously, this scene was planned for X-Men : The Last Stand (X-Men 3) but only in a fake "Hale Berry script" meant to convince her to sign onto the project and then trashed once she was secured. The first director quit the project supposedly over this shady move, and was replaced by Brett Ratner. He was actually reading the script with an executive and commented on this scene and the guy went like "Oh my bad this is the Hale Berry version, here's the one we'll actually do".
