In the original X-Men comics, wasn't Cyclops the Gold Team leader and Storm the Silver Team leader or something like that? I know for sure that for a while, the X-Men were split into teams and Storm was the leader of one and Cyke the leader of the other... forget if the movie was like that, though.
When they introduced the new series entitled just "X-Men" in addition to "Uncanny X-Men," the teams were split into Gold and Blue.
Cyclops led the Blue Team that consisted of Wolverine, Rogue, Gambit, Psylocke, Beast, and eventually Jubilee.
Storm led the Gold Team that had Jean Grey, Ice Man, Archangel Colossus, and eventually Bishop.
One of the reasons for the new title and the splitting of the teams was the great plethora of characters. Given that the roster for the X-Men movies is rather miniscule when compared to the comic cast, I don't think they'd be splitting up the crew into two seperate, distinct, and set strike forces.
As much as I don't like Cyclops, given almost any arrangement of X-Men Characters, I would always consider him to be the man in charge.

Lots of people don't like Cyclops, he's my fav. I'm glad you still respect his position though. I feel he's most qualified, because he has a leadership personality and he was the first X-man.
I like Cyke as a character. Sure, he can be annoying and uptight, but he's a good CHARACTER to have on the team. He's a necessary part of the dynamic

The movie is also gonna have a wee bit more Iceman, Pyro, Shadowcat and Colossus. Plus, Famke Jemmson and Halle Berry's hair appears to have been cut, and it looks bad :P

I noticed they got their hair cut, but I only thought Halle Berry's didn't look good for Storm. I thought Famke Jansen's hair looked fine.

Hmmm... I think Lady Deathstrike looks weird-ish, but whatever.
Hmm, I'm not sure I 100% know what her character looks like but if she's the character I'm thinking of I don't remember her comic book version having a particularly appealing look.
I really like the first X-men movie, and can't wait for the second one. Looking through the pictures, a picture of Storm with the caption saying she was the X-men team leader caught my attention, simply because as long as Cyclops is there I don't consider her the leader of anything, and don't think they would have her as "leader" if Cyclops is there. Who knows what will be going on though, so maybe Cyke will be AWOL from the team while in the movie... I don't know.
Once Cyclops wins an Academy Award he can lead the team, until then he's stuck playing second string. ^_^
LOL. Guess you're right. James Marsden, I'm not sure what else he's done. I just know he has a very similar name to James Marsters (Spike on Buffy). She looks ok, though I'm not sure if Lady Deathstrike had anything to do with the God Loves, Man Kills story (I need to get that book, I haven't read it! Ack!) which I believe the movie is based on. Oh well, anyway, I think she looks good as Lady Deathstrike. It doesn't look exactly like her, but it still looks good, and the long fingernails were cool.

Since we had this topic I was wondering if anyone here has played the newest X-Men game? I was thinking about getting it, but I heard some bad things.
My roommate bought it, he likes it. I haven't played it yet, but I will later today and let you know what I think. It looks alright (I think Bloody Roar: Primal Fury is prettier) but I don't know how it plays. I will try to get some time in today and get back with you.
Ok, if you are an X-men fan, you should like the game. It's not the greatest game in the world or the most inventive fighting game ever, but it's fun to play and has X-men characters.  I'm a big X-men fan and fighting game fan and this game is fun, at least to me. I do with Iceman and Angel were in it though. Has Angel EVER been in an X-men game? I think he's the only member of the original X-men who hasn't. Anyway, rent it and try it, you just may want to buy it. I am going to wait for Metroid Prime though and I need to get Mario Party. There's other games I need to get too...

Thanks, but I have a couple more questions. How up to date are the costumes? Does the X-Box version have anything that the PS2 or GC versions don't have?
Well, there are at least 8 costumes for each character, I believe. The costumes are as up to date as possible. I like the older costumes better than the current ones though. I haven't seen all of the costumes yet. Cyclops 7th costume is the costume he got when he returned from his "death" before the New X-men (which I don't like) started. His first costume is his current one, I don't know what the second and third are (don't think they were actual costumes of his in the comics) but I haven't seen 4, 5, 6, or 8 yet. I can't wait to see them though.
