X2 was on HBO last night.
Remembered I really liked the movie. But biggest kick was COLOSSUS! Only in it for a moment, but I was all "Go, Pete! Go! YAHH!!"
Aimee calls him the "chunk-chunk-chunk" (sound of him transforming to Organic Steel!) Guy.
So that's my dream. That and some stuff about cigars and a tunnel.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

When I saw it in the theatre, I think that moment got a bigger audience reaction than any other part of the movie.
All my classic X-Men comic reading has made me want to re-watch the movies, but I still have lots of comics left to go.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I really only know Colossus from the arcade game. I had no idea he was such a fan favorite. Why is he so cool?

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
And he's Russian.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
I was a bit disppointed that movie-Colossus isn't Russian. He makes up for it by being absurdly pretty, though. Good LORD. No more shirts for that boy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm beside myself at Kitty Pryde. Not only does the character rock, I love the actress. I hope she's back in X3.

I have a plan.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Is Colossus still dead?
