Can't we please just have a Rogue and Gambit spin off??? That would be great! We can have Rogue older, she can leave Bobby, she can have her powers, Storm can have more screen time, Sinister and the Mauraders can be involved. If you don't know the whole story go to the Joker and the Queen web site to read it. It would make a perfect movie and Fox needs to listen to us! I don't think we would be happy Gambit/Rogue fans if he was introduced now because the already messed eveything up and if they had their own movie we would be happier anyway. I am willing to be patient if they will deliver. Nicole

you just read my mind um Gamitindaflesh! A Rogue and Gambit spin off would kick so much ass. Just as long as Rogue is MissMarvelized you know have the strenght the flight the super desenes skin it sounds like a blockbluster...hey it'd out sell Hulk and Daredevil that's for sure.

gambitindaflesh
I wonder how to get the attention of Fox, does anyone know, how do they know what we want??? There must be a way, I want to see this movie!!!
Mainstream
so you agree with having Rogue as her missmavelized verison..you know how she was on the 90's Xmen cartoon...you do remember the 90's don't you buddy?
gambitindaflesh
Of course! I don't know what they were thinking with the movie, more like a Jubilee/Rogue hybrid. Her character does not appear strong at all but puny and I think they could fix that in a spin off, you know over time as she ages and gains all her powers she grows confidence as well! It could be done very well I think. The cartoons were awsome, that's when I really got into the two.
Mainstream
who do you think the villian should be in a gambit and Rogue movie...I vote for Mr. Sinster and the Nasty boys
gambitindaflesh
Yes, one of the high points in the movie would have to be revealing Gambit's past, Sinister is most definately a good role for this, the morlock thing, definately Sabertooth as well. I don't care a whole lot about the whole theives and assasian thing. I don't know about the brood, but his past would have to be an exciting part. Sinister is a big deal.
gambitindaflesh
OOooo, the poll is getting interesting! If you vote for other, please note who you are wanting to see.
Jason Horan
I just want a plain Gambit spin-off, with sinister and the Morlocks...I think leave the Romance of Gambit and Rogue to the offical movies

Mana4X2
Ooooh, I would like to see a Gambit and Rogue spin off, but then, I am also in agreement with you, Jason. Leave that to the official movies and just bring on a Gambit one. Oh my. *DROOLS* A whole movie based on Gambit! Am I allowed to cry right now? LOL. I be certainly hopin' f'r that, o' course!
Cheers,

I don't think a whole movie based on Rogue AND Gambit will be a success. Maybe a Gambit film with Rogue walking in and out from time to time would me much better.
X2 was great and it was pretty much only bout Wolvie, so I voted for him. They just have to make a lot more x movies to get all characters in (or that is, all interesting characters)
gambitindaflesh
Well, it doesn't have to be soley about the couple, that wouldn't work, you couldn't follow them around together all the time, but it is a good foundation for a good film I think. The question is whether or not it would do well, I think so, people who read the comics love him, people who watched the cartoon expected to see him in the movie, people who just wanted to see a movie with action and mutants and knew nothing of the characters would be satisfied as well. I don't see them doing a good job putting the two as a couple in the x movies and Rogue would have to have a good role in a Gambit movie.
Mainstream
Gambit and Rogue movie....it's only a matter of time.
Clovie
romance

Mainstream
action and drama...mabye just a litttle romance.
Clovie
a lot of ramance and sopme action
and NO drama
Mainstream
no drama Clovie..not even a little bit...not even a crumb of drama...wait...suspense..that what I meant..no drama..drama rather sucks.
Clovie
suspene could be

Mainstream
you agree with me...I'm so happy!
gambitindaflesh
I think there must be romance, but it has all those catagories!
Mainstream
why you gotta bring me down dude?

gambitindaflesh
sorry, I'm testing to get an image up so I can be like everyone else, it's not as easy as I thought.
Jason Horan

cry away my friend

it seems that we always see eye to eye mana

gambitindaflesh
Sure would make a person cry. Amongst other things.
Mana4X2
Don't all Australians?

Bring on a Gambit movie, please! *Hopes and prays*
Mana
Mainstream
Just Gambit...not Gambit and Rogue?
Mana4X2
Just Gambit... for me. Although Rogue woudl be an added bonus. I would love to see a movie based on his life before he met Rogue, though.
Mainstream
I see. A just Gambit movie could work. If they make a Rogue movie..they should base it on when she get Miss Marvels powers.
Mana4X2
Yes. Now that would be cool.
Mainstream
Rogue with the miss marvel powers basically sucks.
Mana4X2
Yeah. But the special effects for that would be cool.
gambitindaflesh
You can't just have a Gambit movie without a lot of Rogue! Gambit's history before he met her is great but for crying out loud upon meeting Rogue is when he realizes a lot of things and really wants to be a good guy, it's a very signifigant story line and a very good one. It's really the most awsome love story and should get recognition. I don't think they need to go as far as the blinding thing and all the bull but the basic fact that they were very much in love and they couldn't touch for a long time and the whole arctic thing then there is forgivness is plenty, maybe it ends where they get to be happy and cope with normal life, but for sure, BIG part of Gambits coming into who he wants to be, a good guy. You have to respect that he did horrible things and learned that he wanted to change in the name of love, call it sappy but it is the drive behind his change.
Mainstream
I agree here are the official rules for the Gambit and Rogue movie. It's about Gambit and Rogue. Rogue has her miss marvel powers, it has a ton of action, some humor..but I don't want it to be comedy...Mr. Sinister and Saber tooth are in it. and that's all I can think of right now. of yeah...no Wolverine he gets enough exposure as it is.
Mana4X2
That's not sappy at all. Awww! Now you've got me totally wanting to see a Rogue and Gambit movie.
Cheers,
Mana
Mainstream
Me too. Hollywood get on it.

Shadow_King
what the hell... they do not deserev their own film...
pr1983
oh sweet jesus...
there will never be a rogue/gambit movie purely for the fact that the characters simply aren't deep or interesting enough...
the only thing that made their relationship interesting was her power... thats it...
Shadow_King
and they havent even introduced gambit yet... they cant just stick him in a film..... what if he doesnt appeal to the audience then their goes a year down the drain....
gambitindaflesh
Okay, don't sign the petition then, don't waste anymore of your time on this subject if you don't like it, start your own freakin petition if you want to see something!? get off my back.
Shadow_King
nah i dont want to start my own petition.
gambitindaflesh
fine then, take your no idea, ornery self out of this forum
Shadow_King
you mean thread....
gambitindaflesh
No, I'm nice. You don't have to agree just find a nice way of doing it.
pr1983
look, i see what your tryin to do, but the only xman who has enough backstory to have his own movie is wolverine, and i hate him, but i can admit it...
nobody else has enough backstory (enough interesting backstory) to warrant a full movie...
gambitindaflesh
Well, I think this movie would allow for a lot of other characters to be present and there is a very interesting story behind Gambit all the way to his conversion into a good guy, I don't find Rogue to be terribly interesting personally but an accessorie to Gambit's coming out. I think there is a lot of history, well enough for a 1-2 hour movie. I'm not writing it but I'm sure some genious can figure it out and before they throw Gambit's character into X3 and screw it up even more they might just want to reserve some things for a seperate movie. I'm not expecting that they will make a movie on this but I'm glad to try because I want to see it, I'll leave all the tecnical crap to Fox. They already gave up most of Wolverine's story, I love him, but how are they're already making these movies without a good plan, it seems.
pr1983
they do have a plan, however bad...
what can you get out of a two hour movie?
sabertooth killing his gf... then fast forward a few years to mutant massacre... that won't last two hours...
and thats it... otherwise its an xmen movie...
LISA-J
Wolverine doesn't deserve his own movie,what they should do is have the x-men come in to his solo movie and hog most of his screen time for a change-it's only fair.lol
pr1983
i know what you mean...
but he's still with the exception of the professor the only xman to have enough backstory for a 2 hour movie...
LISA-J
He may have the back story but so what,surely he's had enough screen time in x-1 and x-2 to last a lifetime.Fox need to realise there are other characters in the x-men that they could expand in x-3 to make them interesting enough for a spin-off movie(not going to happen though- thanks to those stupid money grubbing,no imagination morans at fox).
pr1983
i completely understand, i hate logan, i'm a huge cyclops fan...
but even i can admit that they make movies to make money, gambit, cyclops, rogue, nightcrawler, there not well known enough (or have enough backstory) to warrant their own movies... the only way to get a gambit movie is to have a big actor take the part.
i hate logan, if it were up to me he wouldn't be in x3, but to make the movie successful (unfortunately), he's needed more than anyone...
the only way to expand the characters is to make stuff up, none have enough history to last two hours...
LISA-J
They do have enough back story,but with the way singer wrote them it's just to hard to portray.If it had been done propally to begin with there wouldn't be this problem-damn singer and wolvy loving ass.lol
pr1983
which characters have enough good backstory to keep non comic fans entertained for 2 hours?
Mainstream
Rogue and Gambit, um Professor X, Archangel (mabye)..maybe Beast if you show his tranformation into the Beast and how it affects his life..Scott and Jean mabye..base the movie after they marry.
pr1983
rogue and gambit... no... unless you turn it into some whiny romance movie...
professor i said already...
beast, not a chance...
scott and jean... only if sinister and cable are in it... which is unlikely...
Mainstream
if you think about it almost any Xman or Xman villian could make a decent movie...A Juggernaut movie could be like an evil hulk movie and feature 5 or 6 xmen in it....hmmmmm not a bad idea if I do say so myself.
pr1983
its not comics, these are movies, u can't have a juggernaut movie with xmen in it, they're too important as characters, and then it becomes an xmen movie... same goes with everyone else, it has to appeal to non comic fans too or it will bomb...
the best thing they can do is give rigue and gambit some screen time in x3...
Mainstream
then if the generally public likes it one day a GAmbit and Rogue movie right...I heard Gambit and BEast where gonna both be in X3 could you prove or disprove this notion for me pr?
pr1983
i have no problem with gambit or beast being in x3, read the teaser trailer i wrote, i want to see them both...
the only way you'll see a gambit movie is if a big actor decides to do it... like affleck did with dd, i just hope it would be better...
Mainstream
agreed..I hope Beast isn't CGI...no toon Beast for me please.
pr1983
u want a guy in a suit?
Mainstream
I think it'd be better..I mean the Ninja turtles were guys in suits and they looked real and that was early to mid 90's..we've came along way since then lad.
pr1983
lad???
yeah... if done properly it could work...
Mainstream
you from Ireland right pr?
pr1983
yes i am...
but i'm older than you aren't i?
Mainstream
nope...I got you..I was born in 1980..you were born in 1983 right?
pr1983
hmm... seems you do... u in college?
pr1983
cool, what u studying?
gambitindaflesh
Okay, big actor to play Gambit, sounds good to me! See, it's not impossibe.
pr1983
its not, affleck practically got daredevil made himself due to his celebrity, not a big stretch that theres a big gambit fan...
LISA-J

Hey their romance wouldn't be whiny,it would be BEAUTIFUL!!!

pr1983
its a movie about two xmen, it cant be a romance movie... you need enemies to make it interesting...
LISA-J
I'm not saying don't have enemies in it,have loads-just have their romance.Though if they show them having one hell of an attraction to each other in x-3,they don't need a spin-off.
pr1983
thats what i've been saying, give them both a bit of attention in x3 (decent screen time) and that will improve the movie...
LISA-J
That is all i've ever wanted,but if fox wanted to do a spin-off I'd piss my pants with excitmentlol
gambitindaflesh
The reason I want to see a seperate movie: Fox is not likely to have Gambit in the x movies, their reasons are: Gambit's personality is too similar to Wolverine's, he is too physically similar to Cyclops (they must think viewers are pretty stupid not to tell these guys apart!) My reason's: Rogue has Bobby, Rogue is too young for an adult Gambit, there is not a lot of time to develope this character especially with Pheonix coming into the picture. I would hope they would make my much wanted movie (G&R) with an adult Rogue, which also would mean a different actress!!! Rogue can have all her powers and have confidence, sassiness, strength, instead of being scared, puny and sickly, sorry I really don't like the actress for Rogue! There can be time for them, Bobby can be gone and it allows for many interesting opportunities. I do want to see the whole abandoned Gambit in the acrctic bit without the stupid green ghost and how he comes to forgive himself and be forgiven by the others. Pr1983, you don't like a little romance? for shame, this is the only romantic story I'm dying to see.
gambitindaflesh
PS don't forget to sign the petition when it's ready, even if you don't think it will happen, the point is you want to see it happen.
gambitindaflesh
How is Fox goint to do a spin off of Wolverine anyway??? They already went to the lab, destroyed it and the scientist guy, blew the whole Yuriko/Lady Deathstrike character out of the sene, not to mention, nothing like the real story, so what are they planning on doing with Wolverine??? I love Magneto too but they are making him out to be mean to Charles and the X Men, he made that cruel comment to Rogue about her hair on top of trying to kill her, he just isn't the Magneto we love for the simple fact he is not a good bad guy. They need to just start over on these other popular characters and then they can do it right. Everyone is dying to see Gambit, they can get Beast in there too, there's no good reason to do a spin off of the other two, if they are all high on the idea of creating spin offs then they need to start fresh, very fresh!
pr1983
ok...
there us nothing wrong with romance in the movie, so long as it isn't the main plot...
to people who havent read xmen gambit and cyclops are similar, the red eyes, the physical build, even the haircuts are similar in some comics...
a wolverine spin off will deal with his past, there's easily enough to fill a two hour movie and keep it interesting... i won't watch it (cos i cant stand him), but to me he's the only one bar the professor who can make a movie that will make money...
gambitindaflesh
I hope they do a better job telling Wolverine's story. I don't think there would be an issue with Cyclops and Gambit, who can tell Scot has red eyes? There is also a rumor that they are brothers, I can't remember where I read it or if it's true but it's interesting.
pr1983

Alright....Gambit and Rogue movie here we come.... I hope.
doctorstrongbad
It does sound like a good idea for a movie. Maybe they could make it an animated movie?
gambitindaflesh
That would be good enough for me! If they do put Gambit in X3 and he and Rogue suck then they could still make an animated movie spin off of the 90's cartoon! that would rock too.
Mainstream
Whaaaaa ?who says A live action Gambit and Rogue movie isn't a good idea.....I hope they were joking...though it not really a joke cuz it anit funny.
gambitindaflesh
Yes, I want to see this with real actors and actresses, but an animated movie would be a good second. I found this most incredible series of stories on a web site written about Gambit and of course Rogue, I am completely blown away by them, they are genius and creative and just goes to show how an entire movie can be written well, these stories are long and in depth, I have a ton more to read before I can finish them, they were written by Lori McDonald, you really must check them out!
katie_girl09
But you find CYCLOPS interesting? I don't understand. How can you think Gambit and Rogue are boring but Cyclops is interesting?
katie_girl09
They wouldn't have to just talk about those events. How about doing a caper movie starring Gambit? That would do pretty well. Gambit has a really interesting backstory, especially with the different guilds and all. I'd actually rather see a Gambit movie than a Wolverine movie...
gambitindaflesh
Aw, right on. All Gambit fans really must check out that fan fiction lady Lori McDonald's stories, I mean, they kick serious ass and I am not a fan of fan fiction typically. So, if Lori can write kick ass stories and I mean hundreds of pages on these two that are absolutely awsome, I mean staying up until 3 am reading it off the computer until your eyes bug out awsome than Fox can cut it. Oh, make sure to sign the petition too, thanks.
gambitindaflesh
Here is the web site to check it out, I just finished the King of Theives and my God, this woman is a genius, click on her name but beware because there are a lot of other weirdo stuff on this page: http://home.att.net/~lubakmetyk/because.htm check it out, it's addicting, oh, there's sexual content and what not but it is tastful and it is well written.
pr1983
i don't consider them boring, i said simply that they couldnt base a two hour movie around them...
read a comic... seriously... being orphaned (or so he thought), losing the love of his life 3 times... giving up his only son, never seeing him grow up... having apocalypse in his head for a bit... and then, oh yeah, having to lead a mutant team that regularly saves the world...
don't get into a cyclops debate with me, seriously...
a caper movie?
i've done this before... unless a big actor decides to do it we won't see a gambit movie, why? not enough fans inside and outside comics, no studio will risk their money on a support character, unless another ben affleck comes along...
i hate wolverine, but even i can admit he's the only one(bar prof and magneto) that could hold a movie for two hours...
gambitindaflesh
Aw, your a good Cyclops fan. Okay, big actor, sounds good to me, sign the petiton! and if you don't think they shoud make a move about them than let my intense drive be your reasoning. It won't hurt if they made it right? I'm sorry I ever made that comment that one time about Cyclops now.
pr1983
look, i would love to see them make a gambit movie, why? because if it does well it will make money for marvel, so then we'll see other comic movies, but i'm looking at it from a producers point of view...
gambitindaflesh
well, don't let them do the thinking, just sign the petition, all it states is we want a freaking gambit movie! YEAH! oh, good day!
http://www.petitiononline.com/gmbtmvie/petition.html yeah, come on, they had that stupid Hulk movie, all the comic guys are coming out and they sucked, uh, the worst movie I ever saw was the Rocketeer AHH! I did love the X Men movies (though disappointed) and the Spiderman movies.
gambitindaflesh
Hey, you just stated that you would like to see a Gambit move because IT WOULD MAKE MONEY FOR MARVEL. Aw, I knew you had it in you! we all know it would kick ass! even you Cyclops type of guy

i liked the hulk
ill sign the goddamn petition... do i have to register?

a Rogue & Remy movie?
before or after the Wolverine & Magneto one?

INSTEAD OF THE WOLVY MOVIE-HE SUCKS.
gambitindaflesh
Doesn't matter, so long as they do it, of course the sooner the better. I don't see why they are making a Magneto movie, I love the character but...
LISA-J
He is been done in x-1 and x-2,which is my objection to a wolvy movie as well.Fox suck so i can't see them doing a rogue/gambit movie-but it's nice to dream.
katie_girl09
What do you mean? Gambit is a pretty darn popular character in the X-universe. Go to any website about X3 and you'll see that the #1 most asked question is whether or not Gambit is going to be in the movie. There are even a whole bunch of Gambit fans in this forum for crying out loud! I think that you're wrong in saying there aren't many Gambit fans. Gambit is way more than a supporting character.
P.S. Really though, why is Cyclops your favourite character?
katie_girl09
By saying that they are not deep and inetesting enough, you Are suggesting that they are boring...
katie_girl09
Big whoop. Storm was a better team leader anyways. Like I said, Cyclops isn't super interesting

Gambit and rogue movie! I loved this idea

pr1983
wow... avoid context why dont you...
it has to be for a two hour movie... it HAS to attract non fans or it will bomb, simple fact...
based on their history in xmen i dont believe they could hold a two hour movie, very few xmen could...
prof, logan and magneto... thats it imo...
its the writers more than anything... if they'd spent more on gambits character and less on him and rogue then you could have plenty of content...
in your seemingly bitter opinion...
gambitindaflesh
I think you need to check out that lady's fan fiction about Gambit and Rogue 'the King of Theives' in particular if you want to see some one not even employed by Fox write a fantastic story that could easily last two hours. I think the people who went to see the X Men movies who were not already fans went to see it because of the action, graphics and all those super things and that is the same reason they would go see a Gambit movie. You could easily make a 2 hour movie on these guys, they are just two characters that can be played with and it would take some time to explain everything.
gambitindaflesh
I hate to be a pain in the butt, but I can't find a Gambit thread... am I going insane? or could it be... there isn't one???
pr1983
there is one here...
i think its the x3 one though...
gambitindaflesh
what? that doesn't make sense. Why would his personal thread be inside of a generic X3 thread? say it isn't so! oh, damn.
pr1983
no, the 'who should play gambit in x3' thread i think is the one...
otherwise i don't know...
gambitindaflesh
Oh, but that's not the same... that thread is all about who should play Gambit! not about Gambit in general and his past, present and future, I hope Paola knows whats up with this... PAOLA!!! Hear my cry!!! Answer my question!!!! where is the Gambit thread???
katie_girl09
"Bitter"? What on earth are you talking about? I'm simply stating that Storm was a better leader than Cyclops. Why do you take everything that has to do with Cyclops so personally? Anyway, I think that you misunderstood me. I was actually saying that GAMBIT could have a spinoff and it should be a caper movie. If done properly with not too much romance, a ROMY movie would be good, I think. By the way, what does "imo" mean?
pr1983
imo=in my opinion...
if you want to argue about scott and storm, then do so, dont't just say it without reasoning...
the reason i don't believe a gambit movie would work is because his fan base isnt big enough imo...
the only way it will work is if a famous actor is a gambit fan and decides to make it...
if he's done well in x3 i wouldn't be surprised if their was a gambit spin off... as long as its better than elektra...
gambitindaflesh
Of course he is popular enough! I mean he is the character people are crying about having in the next movie right? he is also popular enough to have his own comic series which has gone on for several years and is really quite awsome imo-he he and really, he has numerous threads (though none appear to be soley about him, which sucks) there are several petitions on him and many web sites and he was also a very important character in the cartoon. I think things are in his favor, I mean you Pr are very knowledgable about comics, that is for sure, so I find it hard to challenge your opinion about this but I think you are... no, can't be... wrong.
but hey, it's not something that can be sculpted into fact now can it, um, who won the poll so far for favorite character? who won the pole for most saught after in X3? who keeps the hot chics reading the comics? hmmm. this is somthing to think about there buddy.
gambitindaflesh
Oh, who made 2 out of the 5 Marvel swimsuit covers? who has god knows how many action figures, several statues, including an incredibly awsome new one which everyone must see that starts at $126? the Hilderbrandt brothers have painted him several times, there newest portrait is for sale for $7,000 (might be 8) and my favorite one with him and Rogue sold for $6,000, the newst Rogue and Gambit for $8,000, might even be the most expensive paintings in their whole marvel collection too, you should check them out.
pr1983
i know gambit is popular, but i meant not popular ENOUGH...
for every person that likes gambit there will be one or two who don't...
i mean with x-men everyone has a favourite, so you will have fans of each individual watching the movies (wolverine, cyclops, storm, nightcrawler)...
gambit is popular yes, but he's not on the level of wolverine, or hulk, or spiderman... thats why i think it wouldnt succeed unless they get either a big name or a hearthrob to play him...
he needs to be good in x3 first of all... then maybe we'll see...
gambitindaflesh
sorry, one last thing...
I think if you get some sexy guy, dress him up as Gambit, get him a staff and some aces to throw that explode, have the cajun accent and the kick butt eyes, I'm pretty sure it will sell some tickets whether you are a comic nut or not.
Oh, throw in an equally appealling female with some rediculously 'perfect' skin tight outfit, who is super strong, flexing her muscles every which way, who can not be intimate with the heart throb Gambit... that is until the end of the amazing movie...
NO DOUBT, seriously awsome movie, anyone in their right mind will want to see it male or female, romantic or pervert, it will be BEAUTIFUL!
sign my petition if you agree people, what can it hurt?

yes, my friend, we will see.

that was my point about the heart throb part...
but then if they do that how faithful will it be to the comics?
i just dont want to see another elektra...
btw i signed your petition ages ago...
pr1983
apologies for the double post
having eye candy is not enough...
x2 had that and was terrible...
if they can't act the part they shouldn't be considered for the movie...

Oh, Pr, you know those are not the only things I was thinking.
it could very easily remain faithful to the comics, though Fox has proven that it is not crucial (the X movies)
I haven't seen Elektra, don't know the character either
I know you signed my petition and thank you, I will not forget it, I was directing that little boost to all the lucky guys and gals who will be reading this.
Believe me, I know that about eye candy, believe me.
X2 wasn't terrible but if you think so okay.
I wouldn't have it any other way, believe me, I care more about the acting than the fact of having Gambit in a movie.
