Kitty Fox

Kitty Pride aka Shadow Cat had a small background role in the first installment of the X-Men franchise. She was first played by Sumela Kay and like I said before is just a background character.

In the second installment Kitty is played by Katie Stuart and has a slightly larger part where we actually get to see her power of fazing through objects,

In the third installment we finally get to Ellen Page who is the only actress to play Kitty consecutively. She is a more prominent character in the movie. We get to see her be a part of the X-Men team and help them fight against the Brother Hood. She interacts a lot more with the other characters and he role looks very promising, despite the chaos in the rest of the movie.

The most recent appearance of Kitty was in X-Men: Days of Future Past. She was the one to send Wolverine's consciousness into the past to change it and reboot the franchise.

Unfortunately this means we more than likely see Ellen in the Kitty Pride role any longer. But there is always hope that she may make a cameo somewhere along the way. Until then, have a great week everyone!

Rachel Dawes

Rachel Dawes is the childhood friend/love interest of Bruce Wayne. She is introduced in Batman Begins, directed by Christopher Nolan, and is played by Katie Holmes. She is a lawyer and Bruce's last connection to humanity. She learns that he is Batman and doesn't want the responsibility of keeping him grounded.

In the second installment of the Nolan trilogy, The Dark Knight, Rachel is played by Maggie Gyllenhaal. She's still one of the best lawyers in Gotham and is helping Harvey Dent aka Two-Face bring major crime bosses to justice. She still isn't interested in being Bruce Wayne's crutch (even though Bruce somehow think she'll wait for him...how and why???) But, like all good things, Rachel must come to an end.

It's unclear where, or if, we will see Rachel next, Maybe or maybe not Gotham (TV). But don't let that stop all of you from having a good week!

Marvel's Pepper

Pepper Potts first appears in Iron Man played by Gwneyth Paltrow and directed by Jon Favreau. She is the assistant to Tony Stark love interest (but that comes more in the second movie). She is smart and quick witted and can take anything that Tony throws at her as ridiculous as she finds his ideas. And she is strong business woman that gets what she needs done no matter who she has to deal with.

In Iron Man 2 she is still a big part of Tony's help behind the scenes while he's Iron Man and in his company, which she is now in charge of. 

She makes a small appearnece in The Avengers. Here she helps Tony gather info on his fellow avengers.

Iron Man 3 is where she gets her biggest role. She is kidnapped my the baddie and turned into a kind of super soldier but with a nuclear explosive potential. We get to see her do some cool fighting as she defeats the baddie and saves Tony. Of course they reverse the change so she doesn't explode, but it was fun while it lasted.

Pepper won't be appearing in Civil War and with there being no more Iron Man movies we probably won't be seeing her again. But, again, it was nice while it lasted. Have a great week everyone!

Fox's Storm

Storm aka Ororo Munroe makes her cinematic entrance in X-Men played by Halle Berry and directed by Bryan Singer. And it isn't a pretty one. She doesn't have much to do in any of the movies nor is she important to the plot. Just like she made that horrible Catwoman movie, she is a horrible Storm. So we won't go into every movie because her performance is the same in all. Something happens and she reacts but doesn't do much and her line delivery is awful.

Luckily we don't have to deal with that anymore. Thanks to the X-Men: Days of Future Past reset we will be getting a new actress to play Storm. And hopefully she will give us the Storm we deserve. Until then, have a great week everyone!

Silky Smooth DC pt.2

Silk Specter II aka Laurie Jupiter jumps onto the big screen in Watchmen, directed by Zack Snyder, and is played by Malin Akerman. And I must say again that this is one of the most perfectly cast movies I have ever seen. Although I do have a few problems with how they handled Laurie by taking away some of her lines and giving them to other characters. Overall she transitioned from page to screen seamlessly. She is a very strong woman with a dark past that looms over her. She is the daughter of Sally Jupiter aka Silk Specter and Eddie Blake aka The Comedian (although this isn't officially confirmed until the last half of the movie). So naturally she was raised to also be a vigilante just like her parents. We see her grow as she over comes the fear of her origins while trying to get her life together as the world is facing chaos and potential destruction.

Movies: the only place you can jump into a burning building and not get frizzy hair

This is the only time we'll see Laurie on the big screen, unless they decide to make a Before Watchman mini series or something. Until then, we can only dream. Have a great week everyone!

Marvel's 2nd in Command

Maria Hill is introduced is The Avengers directed by Joss Whedon and Maria is played by Cobie Smulders. Here she is introduced as one of Nick Fury's top agents along side Coulson, Romanoff and Barton. She is his second in command and is in charge of the other agents. We don't know that much about her in this installment, but she will continue to show up in the movies as assistant to Nick and a great ally to the Avengers. 

I wish my uniform was that cool

Maria has more air time in Captain America: Winter Soldier directed by the Russo brothers. She has some small scenes where she is at the staged death of Nick Fury and where she helps Nat, Steve and Sam Wilson aka Falcon. She is the one that hid Fury after he was attacked to keep him safe. The fact that she was the one entrusted to do so shows just how loyal she is to Fury and how much trust he has for her. We finally get to see her in action when she fights off HYDRA (the main bad guys in the Captain America movies) agents while monitoring the teams progress in the assault on S.H.E.I.L.D.S. headquarters. At the end of the movie Fury sends her to get a job at Stark Industries to keep an eye on that part of the team. 

Loyalist team member

The next movie we see Maria in is Avengers: Age of Ultron directed by Joss Whedon. We see her at a party with the other Avengers talking with James Rhodes aka War Machine, Tony and Thor. She also helps to evacuate citizens from Sokovia while the Avengers fight Ultron. And that's all we see of her in the movie. 

Fashion agent

It's unclear whether Maria will appear in the next set of movies, but I hope she does and that we are able to explore her character a little more. Until then, have a great week everyone! 

The Rogue of Fox

Rogue or Marie makes her first appearance in the first X-Men movie played by Anna Paquin and directed by Bryn Singer. We see her discover her power in this movie, which is the ability to absorb the power of life force of people through touch. When she runs away from home she meets Wolverine and through fascinating events she ends up at Xavier's School of Gifted Children aka mutant academy. In this first installemnt she's a scared girl that doesn't think she'll ever find her place in life. She doesn't understand or want her power and wishes that none of this had happened.

Lost Puppy

In X2, directed by Bryan Singer, Rouge is a little more comfortable with herself and her powers. But she still struggles with the fact that she can never touch her boyfriend Bobby, Iceman, without hurting him. She gets to use her powers a little more in this installment, but it is still very apparent that she doesn't want them and can't connect to people because of them. But she has so much potential to be a great member of the team if she could use her powers properly.

She makes it look good

In X-Men: The Last Stand, directed by Brett Ratner, all that potential is thrown out the window. A cure for the mutant gene is discovered and marketed and Rogue is one of the ones that takes it. She could have brought so much to the team but she was thrown away. Luckily we got a rest for the fanchie and we can potentially get the Rogue that we deserve.

Why!?

The next and most recent appearance of Rogue was in the Rogue cut of X- Men: Days of Future Past, directed by Bryan Singer. Here she takes over for Kitty (sending Wolverines consciousness to the past) after Wolverine scratches her. This shows just how much she can be a help to the team and that she is worth so much and her power isn't a horrible thing. With the rest that this movie provides we may finally get the Rogue that we deserve and that the X-Men universe needs.

YEESSS

The next time we should see Rogue is in the Gambit movie. But that hasn't been confirmed as of this posting. But she is an important part to Gambits story so she will hopefully appear and be a more powerful and self confident incarnation of herself. Until then, have a great week everyone!
