Talk:X-Men (film)/Archive1

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Removed Star Trek paragraph...just because Patrick Stewart was in Star Trek and X-Men I see no reason to place this information in X-Men "film" category.

[edit] Lensherr?

Why is he referred to in this plot summary as Lensherr and not Magneto? Evan Reyes 23:34, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Slime in the movie?

When Senator Kelly gets the beach after escaping from Magneto, a boy is playing something. What's that exactly? Is it hinting at Kelly's mutant ability? Any official source mentioned it? --Mato Rei 06:34, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

It's a jelly fish that got washed up on the beach, he's picking on it by poking it with a stick, which is why his sister is getting mad at him.Rglong 07:03, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Jelly fish? Thanks! I didn't expect that the answer would come out in the archived page. --Mato Rei 12:06, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Trivia Speculation?

"Although it is stated that the radiation device used by Magneto has no effect on mutants, it is clearly the cause of Jean Grey's stronger powers in the second movie.."

Is there a DVD commentary or interview to verify this theory? Without it, this point is just speculation and should be deleted.--DMD 16:37, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

It fractured the barriers in her mind which Xavier made to control her. Thus her ulterior personality was given more control

In the Easter Egg of the scene with Spiderman coming out, that isn't Jackman in the orangey black spiderman suit. Before the camera cuts off, you can see Jackman walking onto the stage there claping from the joke. So the paragraph in the main article should be changed, it wasn't Jackman at all.

I believe that Toad's (Ray Park) twirling of the pole when battling Storm, Jean Grey and Cyclops is a reference to his role as Darth Maul in Star Wars - Episode One. I don't have anything to support this, but the airing of this movie on FX's DVD on TV hints at it. Paul 02:59, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

With reference to the previous comment, 3:18 into this montage is the clip with the pole. 85.210.49.160 15:36, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

Interview with Ray Park where he is asked about the reference. 85.210.49.160 15:42, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

I just checked my DVD of the first film and it seems to be dead on for Toad and the pole spin

[edit] Speculation

There's no mention or evidence anywhere that Magneto's machine affects Jean Grey. It is more obvious and likely that her powers are set loose after she uses Cerebro (the other characters repeatedly warn her that she's not ready to use it and that it is dangerous).
