X-men 2

I saw X2 the other night and really enjoyed it.
I noticed all those things people mentioned (well I only noticed Remy LeBeau on that screen, but it flashed so quick that I culdn't see any other names), except for the Phoenix at the end. But I saw what was coming at the end there with Jean, and I kinda figured that it would lead into the Phoenix storyline.
Jammie Maddrox is actually the name of a character from the old X-Factor comics. His code-name was Multiple Man I believe.
I used to be a big XMen fan between the X-Cutioner storyline up until the Onslaught thing. Towards the end, the stories just got bad, so I stopped collecting.

Long before Twistid was around, hell, long before the Insane Clown Posse, Jamie Madrox was the name of Multiple Man, a member of X-Factor.
There's a scene where there is a TV in the background. On the TV, they are interviewing a Dr. Hank McCoy, aka the Beast.
As for Nightcrawler in the 80's and 90's, he spent most of the time as a member of eXcalibur, the team of X-Men based out of Muir Island, England.
Schi0249, is Colossus still dead? I stopped reading the X books before the Legacy Virus deal was wrapped up, but I did scan through the issue at the store.

He sure is. One of the few to remain dead. For now that is. Late last year they went through a rash of killings. Pslocke, Magneto, and everyone else on Genosha. The current writing teams seem intent on not constantly bringing back the dead. They returned a few old members, most of the X-Factor team. Colossus was always one of my favorites. And I was very disappointed when they killed him. But the story for it was good.
You should see what happened to him a few years later. The current Beast is blue, furry, and has sharp claws in place of hands. Ah how times they change. If you think the old X-Men books are bad, then check some of the truly old Superman and Batman comics. Man I'm feeling way nostalgic. I guess its time for me to read some old school comics.

Iceman looks like a snowman, throwing snowballs at his opponents.
Also, check out Angel with the bazooka.
I saw it on Sunday, I stopped checking out X-Men YEARS ago (around 1996 I think), however, from I remember, it made the movie enjoyable. I liked seeing Collosus (correct spelling?) and Pyro. However, was Pyro a good guy then became a bad guy in the original story as well? Because from what I saw Pyro was ALWAYS a bad guy. I stopped watching partway through the Phoenix saga. In fact, I remember very little. Also, wasn't Mystique, Rouge's mother in the series?

Blade was created during the Midnight Sons saga with Ghost Rider taking on Lilith and her horde of vampires, IIRC.
