    Thumbs up

    OK, here they've been leading us on about how Shadowed Past was supposed to focus on Nightcrawler and what do we get? More Rogue! Dammit! Like we need yet another episode filled with Rogue's "conflicted loyalties" and soul-sucking powers. And don't forget the moral message at the end this time, Kids WB!

    I'm so sick of Rogue, I could just scream. When you think about it, everything that can be done with her, has been done already in the comics. Except, of course, curing her of her power. And the character is her power... she wouldn't be remotely interesting now without her terrible feelings of isolation and angst. After all, she wouldn't be just an ordinary person; she'd be a regular gal whose personality has been completely wiped out from years of whining. Now all we need is for Goth Gambit to show up and begin on the "Oh, I love you!", "But we can't touch!" theme.

    You'd think making her Goth would refresh the character but since the only noticeable change has been her look and choice of reading material... AAARRRRRRRRGH!! I hate her! *Fasheem jumps up and down, stamping her feet and getting all red in the face* DIE! DIE! DIE!

    ...

    Heh. Uh, any Rogue fans out there? Hmm. This got a little off-topic, didn't it?

    Rogue... mad

    Fasheem is funny. Fasheem can be alittle off-topic at times considering this is a
    Nightcrawler forum!

    But, I must admit, Fasheem is right! I really liked Rogue at the beginning when I just started to read comics and when I watched the cartoon but, alas, she is now boring. I'll just have to find another good comic where the characters are fresh and not priests!

    Anyone read that new Oni comic?

    Red face

    I prefer to reserve my opinion on the new cartoon until it's been shown. At least it's a new one on Saturday.

    Wink

    I was thinking Oni Press...home to such greats as Barry Ween, Whiteout, Clerks, and Queen & Country.

    Hrmmm. I seemed to have inadvertantly driven this even MORE off topic...

    Oh well.

    Fasheem, I may be evil. But you're just scary.

    *yells off into the distance* Rogue, If you know what's good for you. RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!!!

    I'm gonna go hide in a bomb shelter in case Fasheem decides to turn on me. *slink, slink*

    Just read this at xfan:
    <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>
    In an earlier article discussing the upcoming new episode of the X-Men: Evolution animated series entitled "Shadowed Past", story editor Bob Forward originally informed X-Fan that the catalyst for the story would be nightmares experienced by Jean Grey that were actually Nightcrawler`s, and that Jean was picking them up telepathically.
    Forward recently contacted X-Fan to inform of a slight change in the story for the episode from what was originally intended.
    "Greg [Johnson, co-story editor] has alerted me that at some point after the script left my hands, some changes were made," Forward told X-Fan. "The story now has Rogue having the nightmares instead of Jean."
    "Shadowed Past" is set to premiere on the Kids` WB! network on Saturday, March 31. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

    If I'm reading this right, Rogue is just taking Jean's role, but the dreams are still Kurt's. I think this could be interesting if they touch on the siblings aspect. I like the evo Rogue. I'd say she's my second favorite after the 'Kiddo. She has just the right mix of tuff as nails over a vulnerable, sweet side. She reminds me of the 80's era Rogue, which I liked best. I really like her voice in the toon, its very realistic. I think the actress does one of the voices in King of the Hill. Its not that digusting "Southern belle" stereotype accent. Although I like Gambit, I'm not sure I'd want to see an evo version. I just can't see him as a teen without conjuring up someone like Avalanche. For this reason, I don't think there's gonna be an evo Gumbo.
