One of my favorite scenes in X2 was the discussion between Professor X and Magneto inside the plastic prison. The moment Xavier read Magneto's mind was dramatic, followed by Magneto's reply "I'm sorry Charles, I could not help it."

Then they noticed gas entering the chamber.

Xavier panics, calling Cyclops.

Magneto: "You should have killed me when you had the chance!"

^ agree, Magneto would never had told Stryker about the whereabouts of his fellow Homo-superiors had he not been poisoned.

My personal favorite scene is where Magneto breaks out of the plastic prison.

It's this touch of brilliance that is lacking in X3

Bryan Singer should never have signed for Superman Returns  ???

Too bad that Xavier and Magneto's scenes together were too short. They were together again in The Last Stand, but that film was essentially inferior to X2.

Interestingly, the X2 DVD had a deleted scene that showed Cyclops being "re-educated" by Stryker. The scene explains why Cyclops went against Jean Grey.

One of the reasons why I bought X2 on DVD was not only because it is one of my favorite superhero movies, it's also because I read X-Men: God Loves, Man Kills.
