Wah!
The only thing I have to blog or journal about, I can't blog or journal about. And I just combed my friendsfriends list (which is a strange and disturbing thing, rather like a Michael Card concert with Marilyn Manson as the opening act) and I still don't have any ideas.
Obviously, Jemima needs to say something controversial again. Or maybe I just need to get out more.
Um, how about... I went to see X2 last week? And having spent my teen years in the thick of the Claremont era, I was vastly amused by the cameos from Hank, Kitty, Siryn, and Peter. (Jubilee whatever. She just annoys me.) Anyway, was I the only one who goggled at the Native American girl who was one of the captured kids, and immediately started looking for Cannonball, Wolfsbane and (especially) Magik? Since I didn't find them, however, I guess I'm going to have to assume that girl wasn't supposed to be Danielle Moonstar.
I also think they've limited Rogue's mutant ability too much. They used her well in the first movie, but if it takes her that long to absorb somebody's powers and if the victim stays fully conscious while she's doing it, she's really not that useful. Plus she doesn't have any of the Ms. Marvel-related powers like flying*. What fun is that?
On the other hand, the next movie looks very promising. *rubs handses*

*Which reminds me, even Storm doesn't fly in these movies. Will we never see a flying mutant?
