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.

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!
