The nighttcrawler SFX for his teleport are awesome and from someone who
doesnt know the x-men storyline back to front (but is learning fast) it is
told very, very well. It sticks to what Ive been told is the core sotry very
tightly apart from some obviously expedientt changes for the transfer to
film.

SR related notes:

If you want a kewl new way to use the poltergeist spell - wattch magento -
it will be obvious.
If you want to see an effect like the shamanic mask - watch Jean Grey -
ditto.
If you want neat fireball effects, watch pyro
For the wolvers - obviously watch wolverine
For the hand razors - deathstrike
For chaos, confusion, illusion or other spell eeffects - watch Proff-X
For combat techniques you DONT want to emulate - watch the poor military
schmucks.

<edit>GM's: for a neat trick to pull on characters who like grenades too
much - watch the poor schmucks who come later!</edit>

For a movie that is worth the money to see on the big screen, well you get
the idea :)
