[QUOTE]Originally posted by Griffworks: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by AndrewR: [b]>SNIP<[/b] And sorry - but who/what are Muir Island (Isn't that where Moyra McTaggert is - wasn't she a love of Xaviers and helped build Cerebro with Eric?)[/QUOTE]Muir Island is the home of Moira MacTaggert, Scot scientist and former love of Xavier. To my recollection from the comics, she had no hand in the building of Cerebro. [QUOTE]Franklin Richards?[/QUOTE]Son of Reed and Susan Richards - and a mutant. In an alternate timeline, he's the love of the daughter of Scott and Jean Summers. ;) We found out he's to become one very powerful mutant in some later issues of "Fantastic Four", too. [QUOTE]Project Wide-awake?[/QUOTE]IIRC, the project which founded the Sentinel's, and then the Mutant Hounds, tho not for another decade or so, if they're following the comics time-line, which I sorta doubt. [QUOTE]Originally posted by Griffworks: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Ryan McReynolds: [qb] [i]>SNIKT!<[/i] Now, I haven't read the comics in years, and my memory isn't the best about them... what role did Stryker and/or his son play in the comic? [/qb][/QUOTE]Nope. Not unless Stryker is relatively new to the X-Universe comics. I'm thinking he was possibly made just for the movie.[/qb][/QUOTE][QUOTE]No, I definitely remember Stryker from before. Didn't he become a religious fanatic or some-such in the comics? [/QUOTE]Hmmm... Could be. I'm more than willing to admit that I might be wrong - unlike some other people here in this discussion. I do, however, know that there was a Jason Wyngarde known as "Mastermind". Mastermind was the most powerful illusionist in the mutant repretroire during the run of the X-Universe as I was reading the comics (near continuous run from '79 thru '97), and had a major hand in creating Dark Phoenix. Mastermind's father was never mentioned as being William Stryker. If he's dead, I'm curious to know how they'll handle that for the next movie...? Is it possible that Stryker was someone who "inherited" Project: Wideawake from the guy who created the Sentinel's (can't remember the name off the top of my head and my comics are all boxed and stacked - Bolivar Trask...?)? I seem to recall someone stepping in there at some point, but forget for sure. I'm still a bit torqued that they killed off Gyrich and Kelley in the first movie.... [/QB][/QUOTE]
