what does the X in X-men stand for?
608315
The X-Men were gathered by the benevolent Professor Charles Xavier, a.k.a. Professor X, a wealthy mutant who founded an academy to train young mutants to protect themselves and the world from Magneto and other mutant threats.\n\nThe team's name is widely said to be derived from the fact that mutants are "extra" powered due to their "X-Factor gene", a word which was coined by Professor X. Co-creator Stan Lee recalled in his book Son of Origins of Marvel Comics and elsewhere that he devised the series title after Marvel publisher Martin Goodman turned down the initial name, "The Mutants." In addition to this "official" explanation, the X-Men are widely regarded (both within the Marvel Universe as well as by the readers of the series) to have been named after Xavier himself. The members of the team have always been followers of Charles Xavier, hence, "X-Men."

Apocalypse is the all powerfull mutant that all X-Men fear. I find it strange though that they never even mention him in any of the movies... :-?

I'm not sure what your question is... The last question you had about magneto is the reason why they want us to come back to watch X-men 4. And the scene after the credits was a guy waking up in a hospital bed with the nurse saying "Charles?" Replying to Charles Xavier... you know, Professor X. Well, recall in the beginning of the movie when Prof. X was showing a video of a man in an unconcious state with a nurse next to him. Prof. X says that it is possible for a mutant to use another persons body to store their powers and soul into, and if it was ethical... well the end of the movie shows exactly this. Prof. X wakes up, using the unconcious man's body, calls the nurse, and it shocks her. She knew right away it was Professor X because she calls him Charles... \n\nAnd of course the movie was focused on Jean Grey because the comic and cartoon contained many episodes focused on her and her alternate identity, Dark Pheonix. It was by far the right time for it, because if you have ever opened the COMICS (the cartoon was slightly off also) Dark Pheonix began to spin off into a separate comic, but it never caught on. Also in the comic, Wolverine never kills Pheonix, the issue was actually unresolved if I remember.\n\nFor the sake of film, some items where changed. This ALWAYS happens when you adjust movies for cinema... like the Da Vinci Code.... that's another story.\n\nThis should answer your question about Beast and Arch Angel, in future episodes they may play more important roles, like Iceman and Pyro did in this episode.\n\nWith all of the characters and info that the movie leaves out, they really could have upwards of 20 sequels if they wanted to include every detail. I bet you never knew that Colossus is actually Russian, and in love with the girl who can walk through walls. Iceman was actually not interested in her... just because. The comic never had him and Rogue as love interests, because the comic depicted Rogue as an older woman (old as Jean Grey) who was in love with Gambit. Rogue was also capable of flying. MANY MANY MANY other issues are being left out.... Mutant related to each other, those that switch sides, change identities...\n\nOne last example of whats being left out... In the comic version, Juggernaut is actually Professor X's younger half brother, Mystique is Nightcrawler's real mother, however a foster mother of Rogue... making Nightcrawler and Rogue step siblings..... it goes on and on....\n\nI used to love the comic, now that I am grown, I enjoy the movie.

Apocalypse is a virtually immortal mutant bonded with extra-terrestrial technology. He is one of the most powerful beings in the Marvel universe, possessing a multitude of superhuman abilities, including almost unsurpassed strength and invulnerability and the ability to shift and alter his mass. Apocalypse is often accompanied by four servants, the Four Horsemen of Apocalypse, named after the Four Horsemen of the Book of Revelation.\n\nApocalypse is one of the first mutants, born in mid-30th century BC Egypt. He appears as a death god in several ancient mythologies. However, he has been most active in the late 20th and 21st centuries AD when mutants became a sizable part of the human population. He sees this as an age to implement his extreme eugenic philosophy (only the 'fittest' have the right to survive).\n\nA popular X-Man adversary, he played vital roles in 1990s-era “event” storylines “The Age of Apocalypse” and “The Twelve.” He was also featured prominently in the 1990s X-Men animated series, its successor X-Men: Evolution and the video game X-Men Legends 2: Rise of Apocalypse.

Well, If you stayed after the Credits you will find out that Xavier transfered his Brain Power or whatever his mutant ability to the guy who had no conciseness and no brain activity this means that in the next movie(which I am sure they will make) that X will be able to walk like old times.

--Attention--\n\nMovie spoilers ahead!\n\nIf you have not seen the X3 movie, please do not read on!\n\n- - - - -\n\nIf they plan on making another movie it will most likely be one of these ways. A prequel - to explain more about the origins of the X-Men. They could continue with the current cast and take the movie in a whole different direction; either by ignoring the characters who have since passed on, or by using Xavier and Jene as more passive characters rather then major characters, in which the powers of telepathy would influence the existing characters like Storm and guide them on their way. Who's to say Xavier is completely gone!?! After all, Xavier has walked the halls of time and space before! They could resurrect Xavier and the other two making them major characters yet again (nothing is impossible in the movie industry.) Or they could do spin-offs like Wolverine. I don't think any of the other characters are spin-off worthy. Wolverine is a story in and of himself and would do well on his own.\n\nJust think about it - we barely get a glimpse of Jubilee in X2, we have yet to see Gambit make an appearance, we just briefly get so see the Sentinels in X3 and there is still the story of Apocalypse. There are so many things that they have yet to touch on. They would not willingly kill the story and lose a million dollar movie opportunity! However, they might want to make it appear that way so that they are not "chained to the beast" so to speak, giving them the option of doing it more then one way. After all, Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen are getting older. Who’s to say one of them won’t kick the bucket any time soon!?! I’m sure they want to play it safe and not make any promises that they can’t deliver.\n\nMark my words - the fans will cry out for another X-Men movie!!! Whether it be with Xavier or not, we will demand another movie to satisfy the burning itch/scar that X3 left in our hearts and minds! They chose to mess with our minds, so they must satisfy the public voice and tie-up all the loose ends that they left with the last movie. We demand to know how the story really ends!!! \n\nWho ever said the "cure" was permanent!?! That's what they thought, but that doesn't make it so! After all, Magneto got a huge dose of "the cure", and yet his power still remained. I mean, Beast returned to normal after being in the same room with the boy. Who’s to say the cure was ever a permanent solution!?! If this is all true and the cure never really was a cure, that means characters like Mystic and Rogue may yet return. Which begs the question - when does Rogue get her super human strength and her amazing flying abilities. Are they going to tie her down and domesticate the great Rogue!?! We want Jubilee and Gambit to fight on the forces of good! Where is Cable, Bishop, and Mister Sinister!?! We want to see the memories of our Saturday morning cartoons come to life again! We want the X-Men (as a whole) back again to bask in their former Saturday morning glory.\n\nIt was cool how Wolverine stopped Jene, but I still don't know why they didn't have enough sense in them to have "the boy" face up with Jene. It all could have been over and done with like that, had the boy faced up to her. Then maybe she would still be alive! \n\nXavier always believed that Jene was the most powerful mutant alive, even more powerful then himself (as was proven in the movie.) Unfortunately, the movie left us with unfulfilled visions. We wanted to see Jene turn in to the Phoenix and fly around the skies in her wonderful and terrible glory. We wanted to see the Sentinels kick some mutant butt. We wanted to see more of a superhuman explosion with Magneto and his minions. But instead, they gave us never before seen or thought of events, which shocked our systems and put a whole new swing on things.\n\nThey (the movie industry) are suppressing a blockbuster monster and domesticating the

yes its true.\nRemy was later framed by mutant businessman Sebastian Shaw for the death of the Australian crimelord named Viceroy. With the assistance of Rogue, her team of X-Treme X-Men, and former Triad member Red Lotus, Remy was able to clear his name. Soon after, Remy became embroiled in the X-Treme X-Men's fight against an alien invasion of Earth. He was captured and used as a power source for the invaders to open a portal that would allow their full invasion fleet to pass through and complete the conquest of Earth. The process was halted by the enigmatic villain known as Vargas, who plunged his sword into Remy's chest. Remy survived, but found that he had lost his mutant abilities. As a result, he and the also-powerless Rogue sought to live a normal life together and retired from the X-Men. \n\nHowever try as they might, a normal life was not for them to lead as the pair soon became embroiled in the X-Treme X-Men's fight against the mutant predator Elias Bogan. After Bogan was defeated, the X-Man named Sage used her mutant ability to "jumpstart" Remy's mutant powers and he rejoined the team. \n\nIn an alternate future over 70 years from now in which the X-Man Bishop was born, Remy had become an aged figure named the Witness, so-called because he had apparently witnessed the betrayal of the X-Men by one of their own members.He was also thought to be the last survivor of the X-Men. Upon joining the X-Men himself, Bishop suspected Remy to be the traitor until realised that Xavier's mind and Magneto's mind spawned the corrupt psionic entity known as Onslaught. \n\nDuring Apocalypse's most recent bid for power, Gambit joined Apocalypse's side as the horseman, Death. Gambit believed that Apocalypse would be able to save the mutants, but he would be able to stop Apocalypse should he betray them.

Jean Grey Kills Cyclops (thought we don't see the body, and don't see her finish him off, so maybe...)\n\nWolverine kills a few of Magneto's Brotherhood of Evil mutants in the woods..\n\nJean kills dozens of federal agents and mutants on Alcatraz (disintigration - nasty way to go)\n\n\nWolverine Kills Jean Grey in finale (with love, to save the world) - That makes it 2 Xmen movies she's died in.\n\nJean seemingly killed Professor X earlier in the film, but if you stayed to after the credits you know death is a loosely defined thing in the world of superheroes...

it really didnt show in the movie but ill go with when angel became archangel. the story and the plot would be the same as is in the pages of the comics. and best of all, apocalypse would be there. although magneto is really one of the best villian of the x-men, but apocalypse is one of the deadliest and surely the baddest. and the x-men and magneto can team up just to battle apocalypse and his horsemen. exciting isn't!
