X-movie essentials
SHIO LING HWEE
Nope, its not another X-movie casting thread but what are the essential
things that the X-movie should have. I know that this thread will have no
effect on the decision making process of the movie, but, hey one can wish
can't he (Where's Longshot when you need his luck!!)
Anyway, what are the essential things the X-movie should have ? (Please
omit out the obvious things like the X-mansion. These items should be
background things that affect only the colour of the movie, and prevent
it from being a distortion like that bat-movie.)
Here are my essential items :-
a) The Blackbird ( I like the SR-71 better than the Jim Lee version)
b) Rogue's Stripe
c) The Danger Room
d) The X-men horsing around playing basketball, baseball or whatever
e) Cerebro
f) Xavier's wheelchair
g) Graymalkin lane or greymalkin lane
h) Peter's russian curse words 'Torasavish' or something like that
i) mutant-hating humans and human-hating mutants
and finally,
j) Magneto's totally dorky and impratical helmet
Abbetity abbetity, That's all folks ......... Porky pig

Just nitpicking here - I don't speak Russian, but 'Tovarish' (sp?) is not
a curse word. I believe it means 'comrade','friend', 'brother', or
something along those lines.

Howzabout:
k) The Wit and Wisdom of Henry McCoy, both in the person of the Beast and
readings from a copy Bishop *just happens* to have tucked into his uni-
form before coming to our time...

seldom actually spelled that way here) means 'comrade.' This is 'comrade'
in the specific sense given to it by the Communist movement; the idea was to
eliminate honorifics that might smack of class distinction. The version for
females is 'tovarishcha.' Every now and then you'll hear Peter come out
with 'gospodin,' which is equivalent to 'Mister.'

Ummm, getting by on my really shoddy Russian, which is not one of the
languages I know (folks on #comics know more about my language prowess ;)
Tovarish is Russian for "friend", and is not a curse word.
Just thought you might want to know for in the future...
