Kingberg is just bullshitting now, cause i clearly remember him saying that they wanted to reveal that Raven was pregnant with Azazel's child (Kurt).

Not that it matters now, but still...

I’m happy this wasn’t in the movie. It makes no sense... also implies incest?

Not that I like or agree with this ,but it doesn't imply incest you weirdos. It implies that nightcrawler gets his powers or his genetic makeup was passed down a different way. This implies that nightcrawlers dad was a nobody which in my eyes is the bigger problem. What while Raven was running around the 70s trying to save the world she....got knocked up and abandoned a baby??? And we totally just glazed over and never mentioned it in the movies just expected the common moviegoer to get it???? I hate Krinberg it's like a guy keeps vomiting actual poop and people keep paying him for it

Its the reason why I always say I'm glad Fox Studios will NEVER make a X-Men or Wolverine movie ever again. I never felt like I ever saw the X-Men. One or two good movies can't fix the damage they did. Fox Studios took the WB approach to making X-Men and Wolverine movies and mostly failed.

What he says at this point is meaningless

I remember reading that the X-Men Origins game or something made Wraith as Nightcrawler's dad, which made no sense at the time. But if Azazel was at least his grandfather then maybe that could have worked.

I'm pretty sure that game wasn't canon, but who knows - maybe the idea was inspired by some ideas thrown around by the movie's writers (which I wouldn't put past them...) and passed down.

Broke: "You will give me my baby!"

Woke: "You are my baby!"



Everything is bad

I remember being so excited watching the 1st X-Men film. I never thought I would see a character like Cyclops or Storm in live-action (even though I thought Fox missed the mark not casting Angela Bassett as Ororo). I'm a huge X-Men fan but I forgave a lot on that first film, like, why is Iceman with the younger students & not an active member.

But as years went on I waited for some continuity to comic canon and it never happened. Was there a hint that Mystique was Nightcrawler's mother? I can't remember. Kitty Pryde replaced Rachel, with mysterious new powers in Days of Future Past. Havok was now older than Scott, his brother by 2 plus decades. Pietro Maximoff is now American, renamed as Peter & has a personality adjustment from the comics. His sister (Wanda) is hardly an afterthought and not a twin. It was frustrating to see how Bryan Singer, the other directors & producers & Fox just trashed comic continuity to fit whatever their story narrative at the moment was. So not surprised at all, that Kinberg now says Azarel is Mystique's father as a matter of fact & totally ignoring his Nightcrawler connection.

X-Men is great, not only for its analogy & diversity but because their characters have very deep interrelationships in the comics. X-Men in the films bared no resemblance to the comics. That is why Fox failed the franchise and its fans. I hated everything about the films starting with X-Men 3 & when I saw Marvel Studios doing so much a better with the superheroes they controlled the rights to.

I just thank God every day that Fox never had a chance to ruin Alpha Flight, my favorite X-Men related team. One day when Marvel Studios adapts any of those characters into live-action I am confident they will be considered with care & at least feel like the characters I loved back when I was a kid.

Maybe that would've explained that shot from the first trailere where Mystique was seen crying, she must've found out while she was at that HQ from the military that acted as a mausoleum for some of the mutants that were killed like Angel's wings. I don't remember that scene making it to the cut of the movie,

🤬😂 On that note, I think we're done here.
