I loved Rogue from watching the 90's cartoon growing up and I felt like she was WAY underutilized in the movies. Maybe they were planning on her gaining her flight and super strength later on, but it just never panned out
They'd have to change her story pretty drastically though since those powers came from Carol Danvers, and Marvel owns her.
It kind of makes me sad that we won't get another X-Men film with the original cast. I was hoping that after Days of Future Past they could of cranked out one or two more, and bring back Alan Cumming's Nightcrawler.
And redeem James Marsden's Cyclops for being a complete pansy.
Agree about Alan Cummings, what a great performance. But disagree with the rest. I think they need to shut down the whole machine and just start with in the Deadpool universe.
Outside of the DCEU, FOX seemed to totally not get more of their characters than any other of the companies, including Sony.
They got Professor X and Magneto, as well as Beast, Nightcrawler and..........at the very very end, Wolverine.
But that's about it. They completely missed the point with Cyclops, Jean, Sabertooth, Mystique, Havok, Angel (both of him), Apocalypse, Jubilee, Pyro, Ice Man, Psychlocke, etc etc.
Start over, and find writers/directors that are more interested in the characters than star power and explosions.
