X“Tra Information

May 9, 2003

Here’s alit­tle infor­ma­tion I bet you didn’t know. Among new mutants in the X-Men 2, there was one spe­cific that was cut from the final film. Many of you know him as Gam­bit, the card throw­ing, rod bash­ing cajun pimp from the X-Team. The actors name who is cred­ited in Inter­net Movie Data­base is James Bam­ford, a hard­core stunt­man. You can see his pic­ture at http://www.stuntscanada.net/james_bamford.htm

It is rumored that his cutscene will be included inside the DVD, but no real infor­ma­tion on this has sur­faced. Another rumor is that a cer­tain one eyed leader of the X-Team will be able to finally take off those ugly red specs and see with his nor­mal eyes (With help of a cer­tain phoenix).

We’ll just have to see, moan-a-me.….

That sucks that they cut Gam­bit out of the movie. That would have been so sweet. Oh well, look­ing for­ward to X3.

I hope they have a scene where they all fight together instead of hav­ing seper­ate bat­tles. I can remem­ber in the car­toon they would show all of the X-Men work­ing together instead of being split up!

I’m sure they’ll intro­duce new char­ac­ters in X3, just as they did in X2.

Gambit’s name stayed in the film, so that’s at least SOMETHING

yes i saw the name remy lebou on the com­puter screen its not a cameo but its some­thing to keep my hopes alive that the most kick ass char­ac­ter ever(GAMBIT) will be intro­duced into the movies.
