The Marvel Cinematic Universe is just the beginning - talk Marvel on the big screen, small screen and everything in between. DC Cinematic Universe and independent comic creations are welcome, too - The Walking Dead, Preacher, etc.

Right, and in the Prequel comic, he's in great shape as well! He's doing somersaults in the air and all sorts of circusy tricks.

So what happened? He get depressed and stryker left him one-on-one with the cookie jar?

Maybe he had an allergic reaction to the drug Stryker injected him with. Maybe if they'd just given him a Benadryl the swelling would have gone down and his abs would have resurfaced.:D

You know...I actually had a dream last night that I was on the set when they were filming the opening scene of X2...and it looked so lame with them just flinging Alan around on wires...which it probably did...

He actually did work out for the part...mostly to strengthen his body for the wirework...but it didn't show, did it?

Maybe if we compared his X2 body to his before X2 body we might notice something...but I don't think I want to do that...

I'm Australian...snark is what we do :D

I've got nothing against Mr Cumming...his portrayal was fine...it just wasn't my idea of what Nightcrawler should be (kickarse opening scene aside)...it was Bryan Singer's idea of what Nightcrawler should be.

My favourite non-comic version of Kurt thus far is the Wolverine and the X-Men one...they seem to have gotten the balance right. He kicks butt, is charming as hell (you'll notice Wanda didn't fall for Gambit's charms...only Kurt's :)), has a wonderful mischievousness to him and though there isn't a prayer book in sight, he's still very thoughtful and caring over others...

Researching his pre-X2 body wouldn't even be all that hard considering he seems to have a propensity for running around in the buff.

I rented Titus after he was cast as Nightcrawler since it was all Blockbuster had and.... yeah.

He keeps his clothes on in Spy Kids...and Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion...and Josie and the Pussycats. Titus I saw on Pay TV...well some of it...it was pretty disturbing...what with the pie and all...

I saw it on TV once
I'd like a piece of that pie. :LOL
Kind of reminds of the "Cartman pays back" episode with the chili. (South Park)

Anyways, I saw him in Golden Eye and he looked like a nerdish 30-year old. Then I saw him in Titus and he looked pretty much the same, but then I saw him in X-2 and he looked like a 30-year old something with the body of 50 year old janitor.

Yeah, you're right. I guess I ment more scrawny, not so much thin. And again you are right, he's not too tall either, but I guess I don't really care so much about the height.

I suppose what I ment is that I'd prefer a guy with not much of a body, so I can pay more attention to the face. I mean, when I'm talking to a guy, I'm looking at his eyes, right? I'd take a pair of beautiful eyes to a six-pack any day.

When I'm with a guy, I don't want to spend ALL my time talking. Jeez. A sixpack (or even just average amounts of muscle development) can be very nice.

I found Alan repulsive before I really noticed or cared about any of that stuff though so ymmv.

I wish he'd been more.....athletic....,but I did like Alan Cumming in the movie. He definitely wasn't everything the character was in the comics, but he was likeable and for people who'd never read an Xmen comic, he was sympathetic and really brought home the idea of 'don't judge a book by its cover'.....especially when in the beginning he was set up to look like the bad guy (because before, the only mutants that were "different/ugly/abnormal-looking" were the bad guys and the beautiful mutants were the good guys). So if no one knew about Nightcrawler going into the movie and had seen X1, they'd assume that here's another ugly evil mutant ready to take down the good guys.....and it wasn't so.
So flabby bod aside, I think Cumming did a good overall job of playing Nightcrawler (in the alternate movie reality) and got pretty good reviews and introduced a lot of new fans to the Xmen and comic-Nightcrawler. I was really looking forward to him being in X3 and was really disappointed when he wasn't.

Really? I always thought the whole Nightcrawler absence went through without an explanation. They didn't even mention it in X3 (which really bugged me).

What did the game say happened to him? I'd check the game out myself, but my game store is sadly very deprived.

Oh, thats nice then. I suppose that that would fit more into his movie portrayal than the comic one, huh? I like that.

Thanks, neling.:)

So, anyway, everyone here seems fine with the opening scene of X2 up to a point, but not so much with the rest of it. Why is that?

Because after that scene two things happened. 1. We got a good look at him and 2. he opened his mouth. It's all downhill from here!

Oh, come on. I still love him to bits, movie or not. He was presicely what the X2 movie needed, and even though he was far different in the comics, he's still a great character on his own.
