Hey All,

I agree with Maryann, that Patrick Stewart's character in X-Men 2 is similar to Capt. Picard. Both are leaders of some very extraordinary people. Both are excellent speech makers as well! I guess that's probably why Patrick got the role of Xavier.

Why is are the X-Men called the X-Men? As in Xavier's Men?

I saw Matrix Reloaded last night. It reminded me a lot of the Voyager episode "The Thaw". Remember in the "Thaw" how Voyager came across the race of people who had put themselves in hibernation and created that computerised dream state where their minds could still interact, and how the Clown took over the dream world so that they couldn't leave with out dying? It's similar to how the people in the Matrix are also at the mercy of another computer system.

Wouldn't have the Clown made an excellent Agent? LOL!
