| X-Men: The Last Stand | comment |
X-Men: The Last Stand (2006) is the third movie in the X-Men Film Series following X2 involving the discovery of a "cure" for mutant genes, causing Magneto to start recruiting for a mutant uprising. Also, Jean Grey had a Disney Death, but evidently Came Back Wrong as a result. Despite all this, the X-Men move to defend the cure-making facility from Magneto's forces.The last of the X-Men Trilogy even though there was the possibility of a fourth entry, the series would branch outward into spin-offs and prequels such as X-Men Origins: Wolverine and X-Men: First Class before ultimately being rebooted. The Phoenix was later revisited in Dark Phoenix.Chronologically followed by The Wolverine and X-Men: Days of Future Past. | |

Applied Phlebotinum | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_116a941b | comment |
Same happens to Mystique when she gets her shot of Applied Phlebotinum, she loses her shapeshifting ability and looks like a normal human again. A bare naked normal human Rebecca Romijn at that. note The second example explains the first based on the events of X-Men: First Class, where it's shown that Hank's hairy appearance is originally the backfired result of an attempt to use Mystique's genes to make himself appear totally human (his mutation had only previously affected his appearance in regards to his weirdly large feet). | |

Strong as They Need to Be | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_1228314a | comment |
Strong as They Need to Be: Wolverine pulls this off when he faces down Dark Phoenix in the climactic scene of the movie. His healing powers are inexplicably multiplied to the point where he can walk up to Phoenix (who by this point had already atomized several main characters and the entirety of Alcatraz island), taking multiple psychic blasts which flay the muscles from his bones only to fully regenerate in less than a second. Keep in mind that this version of Wolverine took some time to heal from a single gunshot or being hit by a log. This was so egregious that it got a Word of God Retcon, stating that Phoenix's out-of-control abilities also amplified the powers of nearby mutants. It's also been surmised that Jean was Fighting from the Inside, not letting her full power (which could easily turn Wolverine, adamantium skeleton and all, to vapor) be brought to bear. | |

Jumping Off the Slippery Slope | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_1520ad7e | comment |
Jumping Off the Slippery Slope: Discussed between the president and Beast, when they debate weaponizing the cure as a safeguard against dangerous mutants. The president tries to rationalize it as a extreme circumstance, to which Beast responds by pointing out how quickly such a justification can snowball before resigning. The president ends up doing just that when Magneto's mutant army shows up, but by the end he's climbed back up and rehired Beast to help smooth things out again. Of course, extra material on X-Men: Days of Future Past shows that's exactly what happened after the movie, with a Lensman Arms Race between several companies to create a mutant cure, culminating in anti-powers collars. | |

| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_16fbce44 | comment |
Liquid Assets: When Beast approaches Leech, his powers are drained. Apparently his powers include "being hairy," because his hair withdrew into his body as he got close, and immediately grew back when he stepped away. Same happens to Mystique when she gets her shot of Applied Phlebotinum, she loses her shapeshifting ability and looks like a normal human again. A bare naked normal human Rebecca Romijn at that. note The second example explains the first based on the events of X-Men: First Class, where it's shown that Hank's hairy appearance is originally the backfired result of an attempt to use Mystique's genes to make himself appear totally human (his mutation had only previously affected his appearance in regards to his weirdly large feet). | |

All There in the Manual: Nightcrawler was a popular part of X2: X-Men United, but was mysteriously absent from this movie. His disappearance is explained in X-Men: The Official Game released between the two. note He is forced to brutally fight Hydra soldiers, several Multiple Man clones, Sentinels, and hallucinations of demons- all while being haunted by the ghost of Jason Stryker. He is not comfortable with the recurring violence involved with being a member of the X-Men. | |

Internalized Categorism: The movie starts with a little Angel who tries to cut off his own wings (and maybe he did that quite often) in his desperation to be normal. Later, his father tries to help him get "cured" of having white wings to fly with. Angel changes his mind at the last minute, however, and later uses his flight to save his father's life. | |

Ambiguous Situation | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_1f6983f7 | comment |
Ambiguous Situation: Mystique, or Raven, gives the government key information on Magneto's whereabouts after she loses her powers and he discards her. The troops that show up to apprehend the Brotherhood are thoroughly embarrassed to find absolutely no one other than Madrox, AKA Multiple Man, who'd been lying in wait to waste their time at the key moment Magneto begins his coup de grace at Alcatraz. Was this a bizarre coincidence, was Magneto that Crazy-Prepared, or did Mystique and Magneto arrange her false defection to buy him the time needed to assault Alcatraz? The film's original ending all but confirmed the latter, but the final cut leaves the incident ambiguous. | |

With Great Power Comes Great Insanity: Jean Grey in her manifestation as Dark Phoenix. Although it is explained that she was already mentally unstable as a girl and her massive powers had to be reduced for her own good and that of everyone around her by putting mental blocks into her psyche. When these were removed, she started killing people with her mind. (This is actually closer to the original Phoenix story than the later comic and adaptation stories that portray Jean as having been Touched by Vorlons.) | |

| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_26ac510e | comment |
Beast as well. Aside from a blink-and-you-miss-it Mythology Gag cameo in X2, this was Hank's first appearance in the films, and he's treated as an old friend of Xavier's and a long-standing member of the X-Men by everyone except Logan. Amusingly, the trope instead becomes The Bus Came Back if you watch the films chronologically, and view First Class before the original trilogy. | |

Shoot the Dog: When Jean Grey has completely lost control of her alternate personality "The Phoenix", Wolverine is the only one with the fortitude (both moral and physical) to put her down in the end, despite being in love with her. To take the edge off the trope, she regains enough control to request that he kill her. In the original comic saga, Wolverine pointedly can't bring himself to do it. | |

Mauve Shirt: Psylocke appears for a bit, though mostly in the background, before turning into Ludicrous Gibs. Kid Omega lasts quite a bit, kills one character and almost does so with a second.

| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_2af7b145 | comment |
Prefers the True Form: Ironically inverted, where Magneto cruelly dismisses Mystique, after she's injected with the mutant cure, leaving her naked, depowered, and (in human terms) completely gorgeous. | |

My Master, Right or Wrong | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_2dae4381 | comment |
My Master, Right or Wrong: There are shades of this with regards to Wolverine's behaviour around Charles. He becomes angry at Xavier after learning about the psychic blocks in Jean's mind, yet despite his disgust, he still reassures her that the Professor can help and fix her mental instability. Instead of going on his own, Logan accompanies Charles to Jean's childhood home, and he's devastated when Xavier is murdered. It's on a subconscious level, but Wolverine was beginning to develop Undying Loyalty towards Professor X. | |

Too Fast to Stop | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_30401348 | comment |
Too Fast to Stop: Kitty Pryde is getting Juggernaut to chase her through the walls of the Alcatraz laboratory, right up to the room where Leech is. Since she can't phase anymore, she moves close to the far wall and when Juggernaut comes bursting through the last wall, he runs full steam towards them. Unfortunately for him, Leech's power kicks in and he slams into, not through, the wall with enough force to knock himself out. | |

Shipped in Shackles: Blurs the line between this and the Tailor-Made Prison with the government's mobile prison-van. Mystique is kept behind bars and with her hands shackled to the ceiling. Juggernaut and Multiple Man both got locked in standing metal coffins to seal off their abilities. The guards on the van were also armed with weaponized Mutant Cure. | |

| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_34082c59 | comment |
Wolverine Publicity: Other then the obvious Trope Namer, there are some additional examples: Did the boy with long white wings standing behind Wolverine in the poster above catch your attention? He has less than five minutes of screen time and serves no role other than being a blatant Mr. Fanservice. Xavier and Cyclops are featured as well, even though both are murdered less than halfway through the film. Rogue is also in the background, but is only part of a subplot that could be easily excised without affecting the film's plot much. She doesn't even get to participate in the titular last stand, being the only X-Men member to not play a role during the climax. | |

Apathy Killed the Cat | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_3f48bffa | comment |
Apathy Killed the Cat: At a Mutant Awareness Meeting held in a church discussing how to react to the news of Worthington Labs' Mutation cure; Mutants like Callisto said that the cure is nothing more than a method for the Humans to exterminate the Mutants while the speaker explained that this cure was entirely voluntary and that Mutants should try organizing to form committees and talk with government officials to raise Mutant awareness. Magneto cites a familiarity of the situation as exactly how this sort of attitude is what originally allowed for Nazi Germany to rise to power. | |

| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_3fe2b13f | comment |
Ungrateful Bastard: Magneto abandons Mystique after she's de-powered by a weaponised mutant cure. This is after she'd taken the bullet for him in the first place, and had been his most loyal, competent, and cunning minion for two movies besides. His callous disregard for her service is practically an Idiot Ball, as she was also his closest confidant and possessed insight into his plans and strategies, which she promptly offers up to the government. The original ending ameliorated this with The Reveal that Magneto and Mystique had been playing the long con, and that the suspiciously useless information she gave the government was indeed a diversion to buy Magneto time to invade Alcatraz, but the final cut leaves this connection ambiguous. | |

Dropped a Bridge on Him | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_43a045de | comment |
Dropped a Bridge on Him: Notoriously, the film eliminated several franchise regulars, with arguably the most controversial example being that of Scott Summers, aka Cyclops. Despite acting as the team's field leader and, within the regular comic series, their linchpin since inception, he's quickly killed off-screen within the first 30 minutes of the film by his newly resurrected fiancee, Jean Grey. As though that wasn't bad enough, his death barely registers with the rest of the cast later on in the film, with only a brief mention by Professor X who doesn't seem overly perturbed by the loss of his surrogate son. To some of the general public, Cyclops' anti-climactic death might not have been that big of an issue as his screentime got shafted in the previous 2 films in favor of Wolverine, who acted as the series' cinematic alpha hero. However, for fans of the comics, the death was also a slap in the face of sorts since the film's plot was heavily influenced by the comics' extremely well-regarded Dark Phoenix storyline that focuses on Jean and Scott. Within the context of the film, that story became a secondary plot thread, and Wolverine was substituted in as the romantic/heroic lead in light of Scott's less than stellar death. Also, Professor X is killed off midway through the film. Coupled with the fact that Rogue and Mystique were both Put on a Bus and Jean had basically removed herself from the X-Men/Brotherhood fray, you have a climax that barely features any of the characters from the previous two movies. Also of note are Kid Omega, Arclight, Psylocke, and (presumably) Juggernaut, all of whom unceremoniously fall victim to Jean Grey's psychotic "burn everything" episode near the film's conclusion. | |

Stupid Sacrifice | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_442a6995 | comment |
Stupid Sacrifice: Magneto sacrifices his troops against soldiers he knew were armed with the serum, rather than have Phoenix just nuke the island from afar or crush the entire island and everyone on it with the Golden bridge, or form the metal of the bridge and cars into a swarm of shrapnel and eviscerate all the guards. Phoenix's inaction was at least explained in a deleted scene where she simply refused to help. The rest not so much. Adding to this, Magneto could have used any humans who were still on the bridge as hostages in order to force the soldiers to hand over Leech, so Magneto wouldn’t have to send any mutants at all, just sacrifice the humans instead, it would get the message across. | |

As a result, some of the characters must contend with whether or not they actually want to be normal and take the cure. Eventually, Rogue decides it's what she wants and takes the cure; however, one alternate ending shows her not taking it, and holding hands with Bobby wearing gloves. | |

Death by Adaptation: The film recreates the mental duel between Phoenix and Xavier from The Dark Phoenix Saga. Except this time, Xavier loses and is destroyed. However, The Stinger reveals that Death Is Cheap. Fifteen minutes into the movie, Cyclops is killed. Jean/The Phoenix is Killed Off for Real, when Death Is Cheap in the comics. It's cheap here too due to the Cosmic Retcon of X-Men: Days of Future Past. | |

Advertised Extra | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_4b0ef86e | comment |
Advertised Extra: Angel is featured heavily in all the promotional material, as part of the whole "the original X-Men team in the comics finally together in film". He only has two or three scenes: he refuses the cure and runs (flies?) away; he very briefly shows up at the X-Mansion for the sole purpose of allowing them to state categorically that the school is still open; and finally he saves his father's life during the final battle. He does nothing in between. The same can be said of Colossus — he has one line (which is about as long as both of his two lines in X2 combined) and he's really only in the film for the Fastball Special. It should come as a surprise to nobody who saw the movie that several scenes were deleted from the final cut—not unusual in this movie series, but much more noticeable here. This obviously affected how much screen time several characters got. Cyclops also counts, his screentime is greatly reduced due to James Marsden's other commitments, and yet he was also part of the same "original X-Men team" promotion as Angel. | |

Karmic Transformation | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_5360c039 | comment |
Karmic Transformation: In X-Men, Magneto tried to find a way to turn normal humans into mutants. He used this technique on a Senator who hates mutants but the guy soon died from complications. In this film, this is turned around on him, with the humans developing a "cure" and Magneto being robbed of his mutant powers. Though the final scene reveals that the cure is already starting to fail, as he's able to make a metal chess piece move slightly. | |

The Dragon | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_53f5119f | comment |
The Dragon: Mystique is Magneto's primary dragon for part of the movie. It's somewhat unclear who takes over as Magneto's dragon after Mystique's departure in the third film as there isn't a clear-cut second in command. The two top candidates would be Pyro, who is the only remaining member of the Brotherhood who was with Magneto prior to the beginning of the movie, and Callisto, who was the apparent leader of the Morlocks before they became Magneto's new Mook army. A case might also be made for Juggernaut, though he fits better in the role of The Brute. | |

Plot-Induced Stupidity | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_57fac831 | comment |
Plot Induced Stupidity: If Magneto can rip up and move the Golden Gate bridge (something around half a million tons), he could either drop it on Alcatraz and kill everyone there in a stroke or throw something smaller a lot harder and flatten the island with no risk that way. Beyond having a third act fight after a set-piece visual there's no reason to land it more or less politely. For that matter, controlling the bridge requires Magneto using his powers to quite long range and Alcatraz itself contains a lot of steel. | |

Interrupted Cool Down Hug: Just when Logan managed to calm down the Phoenix (Jean Grey), the military's reinforcements arrive and despite his "NO!" start firing anti-mutant needles at her. Cue Dark Phoenix blasting everyone to shreds. It's worth noting that in that scene, Jean had been in a majorly unstable state thanks to the Phoenix but hadn't actually fought during the Alcatraz battle... until the military's attack, which made her snap. | |

Sequel Hook | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_6293c185 | comment |
Sequel Hook: Despite being the final chapter in a trilogy, the film has a potential sequel hook in its final seconds; the de-powered Magneto, homeless and alone, sits at a (steel) chessboard in Central Park vainly trying to make the pieces move; one pawn wobbles, almost imperceptibly, in the instant before the shot cuts to Brett Ratner's director credit. There is even a second hook after the credits, showing that Xavier's consciousness had survived. | |

Comic-Book Movies Don't Use Codenames: Colossus was referred to by his codename by Wolverine as they walked out of the Danger Room near the beginning. Beforehand, Wolverine calls him Tin-Man as a joke. Angel (Warren) and Beast (Hank) never use codenames. Subverted and played straight with Jimmy as his profile indeed shows his alternative alias of "Leech", but he's never called that by anyone nor does he refer to himself as such. | |

False Innocence Trick: Played for laughs when Mystique is being transported along with several other captured evil mutants.

Brought Down to Normal: The plot of the film revolves around a serum created from a mutant that imposes this trope on any other mutant around him. Throughout the movie, several characters take the serum, either forcefully or willingly. Major characters include: Mystique, Rogue, and Magneto. In Magneto's case, it's revealed in The Stinger of The Wolverine that it wasn't permanent. There is an alternate scene where Rogue doesn't take the serum. | |

Chess Motifs | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_6d56cebf | comment |
He also gets major dog-kicking points in the scene where his forces fight against the government. He uses Chess Motifs, telling his protege, Pyro for them to wait until the pawns (his other followers) exhaust themselves. In this moment, like the above scene, Magneto violates his own standards of decency, since if nothing else, he supposedly cares about mutants. Of course, he was fully expecting to take down the soldiers' weapons in seconds, before finding out they're made of plastic. Nothing about that particular scene shows Magneto planned on simply letting his Mutants get shot down and killed For the Evulz, he just planned on letting them do all the work and cut down the soldiers he planned on disarming, without unnecessarily endangering his more powerful assets. | |

Casting Gag | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_6ec4232f | comment |
Casting Gag: Former soccer player Vinnie Jones as Juggernaut, whose American football design is deliberately played up with his "unstoppable" mutant power. In Bryan Singer's original vision for adapting The Dark Phoenix Saga, he was going to cast Sigourney Weaver as the White Queen. The White Queen and her Massachusetts Academy were often depicted as an antagonist of X-Man Kitty Pryde (both of whom were introduced during The Dark Phoenix Saga) during the 1980s. And when Kitty Pryde was created, she was explicitly drawn to resemble....Sigourney Weaver. Uncanny X-Men issue #143 even highlights this by being an extended homage to Weaver's then-current starmaking role in Alien. | |

Covers Always Lie: Several of the posters showed Angel clad in an X-Men uniform and acting as part of the team. Not only does Angel not wear a costume in the movie, he doesn't even officially join the X-Men either. It also ties in with the promotional angle of "the original comics' team together in film for the first time": only Beast and Iceman are actually part of the team, considering that Jean has been taken over by the Phoenix, thus serving as one of the main antagonists, and Cyclops dies still in the first act. | |

Remember the New Guy? | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_77b03c0a | comment |
Remember the New Guy?: Sort of. While Kitty Pryde was present in the first two films, her role was so minor as to essentially be walking set dressing combined with Mythology Gag, as her two sole appearances have her phasing through a wall just to demonstrate to the audience who she is and she otherwise has no role in the films. In this film she's treated as if she's been a major part of the cast all along, with her training right alongside Colossus, Iceman, and Rogue. Beast as well. Aside from a blink-and-you-miss-it Mythology Gag cameo in X2, this was Hank's first appearance in the films, and he's treated as an old friend of Xavier's and a long-standing member of the X-Men by everyone except Logan. Amusingly, the trope instead becomes The Bus Came Back if you watch the films chronologically, and view First Class before the original trilogy. | |

Hide Your Otherness: The film starts with a little Angel who tries to cut off his own wings in his desperation to be normal. Considering that he did successfully remove them, but he still has the wings as an adult, they must have kept growing back. | |

Left Hanging | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_80b5924 | comment |
Left Hanging: The film ended with the revelations that Magneto still maintained some of his powers, and that Professor Xavier had somehow survived his death and was inhabiting a new body. The studio didn't immediately follow up on either of these plot points, instead opting for two prequels and a solo spin-off starring Wolverine before finally acknowledging it a little bit in X-Men: Days of Future Past. | |

Doing In the Wizard | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_86d4f985 | comment |
Doing In the Wizard: The Juggernaut is simply a mutant who was born with his abilities. In the comics, he gets his powers and armor from a mystical gem. The Phoenix is just Jean Grey's alternate personality, rather than a god-like cosmic entity. Though to be fair, the Phoenix originally was just Jean in the comics before it was Retconned into being a creature from space. | |

Go Out with a Smile: Xavier gives Wolverine one last smile before he gets disintegrated. This is made all the more emotional since the last time the two really talked, they were arguing. Done one more time in the movie by Jean. Coincidentally, Wolverine happens to be at this scene too. When Jean briefly stops her violent rampaging, she implores him to save her from her Phoenix side by destroying her. He responds with his admantium claws in her gut, and she goes out with a relieved smile. | |

| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_928ca2cc | comment |
You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: Downplayed. Magneto leaves Mystique behind when her mutation is removed and genuinely feels bad about it. She repays him in kind by working against him. It makes a bit more sense when you consider the original ending of the movie. When Magneto is at the park bench at the end, Mystique was supposed to be sitting next to him, implying that Magneto's rejection of her and her subsequent betrayal were both actually staged to lower the defenses of Alcatraz Island later. | |

Cape Busters: The military is eventually equipped with "cure weapons", firearms and indirect fire weapons that contain a serum which disables mutant powers on contact. Or does it? They even manufacture plastic and glass versions of the weapons to fight Magneto. As appropriate for the themes of the movie, the serum permanently disables mutant powers and its use as a weapon is highly controversial. | |

Defrosting Ice King: It's alluded to when the Phoenix (who is presumably using her telepathy) says to Wolverine, "What, you think [the Professor's] not in your head, too? Look at you, Logan. He's tamed you." Unbeknownst to both Wolverine and the audience, he has grown to love Xavier as a friend, and this finally comes to light after Logan crumbles emotionally after Charles is murdered. This is the first time in the original trilogy where Wolverine had displayed this much vulnerability towards a male character. | |

| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_a6e8221e | comment |
Status Quo Is God: The film seemed like this. During the movie, several characters died (including Professor X!) and many more were "cured" of their powers. Two scenes at the end hint that 1. Xavier downloaded his mind into a catatonic body, and 2. Magneto and the others are recovering their powers, meaning the only changes that stick are Scott and Phoenix's deaths. | |

Karma Houdini: Magneto is last seen, supposedly broken, sitting in a San Fransisco park playing chess. Presumably during the confusion at the end of the battle of Alcatraz he managed to slip away, instead of going back to prison to pay for all the death and mayhem he caused. The end of the movie implies his depowering won't even be permanent, making this even more of an example. | |

Armor-Piercing Response: When Callisto tries to gauge Magneto's true pride of being a mutant by asking him why he hasn't visibly marked himself like she has, he shows her his contempt for humanity in the form of a prisoner number tattoo he received from the holocaust.

The Force Is Strong with This One: The film had Callisto who could detect other mutants and ascertain their relative "power-levels" on a 1-5 scale. Only one level 5 has ever existed, and when she tells Magneto that she just became aware of a "level 5", he immediately knows that she refers to Jean Grey's "Phoenix" personality. | |

Demoted to Extra | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_b8e3f20a | comment |
Demoted to Extra: Cyclops, though there's a reason. Rogue, as well, she had fairly large parts in the first and second movies, but her storyline in this movie remotes to her being jealous of Bobby and Kitty and taking an apparent cure. Part of it was also because Halle Berry didn't like Storm's comparatively smaller role and demanded a larger part. But objectively speaking they both were shafted. Dr. Kavita Rao. Gets about thirty seconds of screen time, three lines in total, and then is Killed Off for Real. Most of her role from the comics (like holding the press conference) is taken over by Angel's dad. She was never a major character to begin with, and was a very recent creation when the movie was made, but still. Psylocke usually has a fair amount of input on the plot in the comics. | |

Power Nullifier: Leech could to not only nullify mutant powers but also give even the most deformed mutant a normal human appearance. His DNA was used to create the mutant "cure" which Rogue takes in order to be with Iceman. Magneto's scene seems to imply that the cure might not have been permanent, at least in people who really didn't want to be cured. | |

Precision F-Strike: As the DVD's deleted scenes reveal, the film was originally poised to have one of these: "Mr. President, shut the fuck up!" The final cut of the film is actually the least profane of the trilogy, with not even a "shit" making it through. The most TV-unfriendly word in the movie is "dickhead". The iconic line (and Ascended Meme), "I'm the Juggernaut, bitch!" | |

Why Don't You Just Shoot Him? | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_bce16d24 | comment |
Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?? Upon discovering that the US troops are armed with plastic cure-dart firing weapons, Magneto orders Arclight to target just the weapons rather than the people wielding them with her shockwaves. What makes this especially jarring is that in a deleted scene, he'd implored Jean to unleash her powers against the advancing guards people, only for Jean to inscrutably and silently refuse, just seconds before turning to Arclight out of desperation. | |

Both Sides Have a Point | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_c02f148d | comment |
Both Sides Have a Point: When a cure for mutants is introduced, Magneto is primarily wary that humans will 'draw first blood' and use it to forcibly strip mutants of their powers—which is exactly what they do. Well, they do utilize it to strip a mutant( namely Mystique) of her powers, but they do not " draw first blood" since the depowering took place while security was attempting to use the "cure" on Magneto while he was in the process of murdering other security personnel during a jailbreak for Mystique. Unfortunately, he, the Brotherhood and Jean Grey then go on to launch an attack on the cure-production facility (with Magneto tearing the Golden Gate Bridge off its foundations in the process) with the stated intent of destroying the cure's source — which happens to be an innocent teenage boy who is himself a mutant, thus giving the humans every reason to believe the mutants are exactly as dangerous and destructive as feared. Also when the heroes are discussing taking the cure. | |

This moment serves as Magneto's Kick the Dog: for all his grand-standing on mutant rights and brotherhood and superiority, he's just as willing to watch them get slaughtered. Of course, as noted in Kick the Dog above, he WASN'T planning on letting them get slaughtered, he immediately tried to disarm the humans with his powers. He just wasn't counting on plastic guns. He then orders Arclight to take down the guns. | |

Red Shirt Army: The army of mutants, less than a dozen demonstrated any special ability except rushing forward blindly, to the point that the previously completely ineffective human army kicks their butts. It was mentioned that those mutants were the ones with lame powers. Plus, the army had power-neutralizing weapons. A flesh wound in the shoulder turns Joe Random Rock Thrower into Joe Blow. And for the most part the mutants were all untrained civilians. The most they could do was rush forward blindly and get cut down. | |

Killed Off for Real | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_cda501da | comment |
Dr. Kavita Rao. Gets about thirty seconds of screen time, three lines in total, and then is Killed Off for Real. Most of her role from the comics (like holding the press conference) is taken over by Angel's dad. She was never a major character to begin with, and was a very recent creation when the movie was made, but still. | |

She finally turns mockingly back into herself when one of the guards threatens to empty a can of pepper spray in her face if she doesn't knock it off. | |

Race Lift | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_d7c3ba61 | comment |
Race Lift: Bolivar Trask is played by Bill Duke, while his original comic book incarnation was a white guy. Kid Omega also becomes Asian American, though this is definitely a case of In Name Only since he has almost nothing in common with his comic counterpart. He had much more in common with Quill, and is even referred to as such the director's commentary. This would still make this a race lift, since Quill was white too. The normally pallid Callisto is played by Dania Ramirez, a dark-skinned Latina actress. | |

What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway? | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_dd3272bb | comment |
What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?: Taken to new heights with Kid Omega, whose abilities are... retractable inch-long spines. Apparently inspired by comic character Quill. But while Quill can usually shoot these spines, these just... stay there. While this could be a devastating power if you were intent on killing everyone at a chronic cuddler retreat, in combat with people with guns, psionic powers, and various other super-abilities, it's kinda weak. Despite this, he acts as though he is an impressive mutant, using his quills for intimidation purposes on multiple occasions. (Not a bad idea, but useless in the circles he travels in.) It's made worse by the fact that his only on-screen kill is a defenseless, crying woman whom he comforts with a hug then impales on his spines. Some sources describe the spines as poisonous, but still not all that interesting. note The comic version of Kid Omega is decidedly more interesting but just as useless: he has a "transparent mind" that makes all of his thoughts visible to passersby. When amped up by performance-enhancing drugs, however, he reveals himself to be an incredibly powerful psychic. Of course, he kept that amped-up level, making his day-one weak powers more a part of his origin story, like pre-Super Serum Steve Rogers' frailty. There's a reason he's called Kid Omega - Omega is the highest class of mutant powers. Scarlet Witch and Franklin Richards are Omegas. Apocalypse isn't. Every time Kid Omega gets bored with ascending to a higher plane of existence, he reforms his body from its current state as goop in Beast's lab and wreaks global scale havoc. If he had real ambition instead of being a brat throwing (incredibly dangerous) tantrums, he'd stand uncontested at the top of the X-Men's rogue's gallery. The mystery of why the movie makers would even apply the name to a porcupine dude is something still occasionally discussed. And Phat, whose power is... he gets fat. Then thin again. | |

Would Be Rude to Say "Genocide" | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_de56f2bf | comment |
Would Be Rude to Say "Genocide": Magneto interrupts a mutant committee meeting over the development of a cure for mutation to deliver a scathing appraisal of what he considers to be avoidance of this issue, drawing from his own experiences with mass extermination: Magneto is exploiting this trope, however: he is using fear of genocide to widen the divide between mutants and humans and perpetuate his war against humanity, ostensibly to protect the mutants from just such an extermination. | |

Composite Character: Callisto merges the powers of the comic characters Caliban and Quicksilver. Her leadership role and personality (which isn't all that fleshed out in the movie, but overall it's pretty consistent with the comics) are the only traces of the comics' Callisto. Kid Omega is Quill. The writers even state so in the DVD audio commentary. | |

Hands Looking Wrong | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_e4a5bb49 | comment |
Hands Looking Wrong: Beast goes to meet Leech. Leech negates all mutations within a certain radius of himself, so when Beast reaches out to shake Leech's hand his own hand enters the radius. His normally furry hand reverts to looking human, which shocks him for a moment. It's a plot point (a retroactive one from the later-made prequels, but still) that it took Hank a LONG time to become comfortable in his blue furry form. Upon reaching back his fur returns, but Hank is still shaken. | |

20 Minutes into the Future: "The not too distant future" subtitle gets a bit confusing by the time this movie happens. Simply because two scenes occur before the opening credits, and they are stated to be "10 years ago" and "20 years ago." It is never specified when exactly those two scenes were supposed to be 10 and 20 years ago from, now or from the not too distant future. (Confused yet?) | |

Well-Intentioned Extremist | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_fd4f8299 | comment |
Well-Intentioned Extremist: Both Warren Worthington II and Dr. Kavita Rao, who just want to help people who society views badly. Psylocke, Kid Omega and Callisto. Like the other Omegas, who want mutant rights but have crossed the line into mutant superiority. | |

Will They or Won't They? | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_fdc1e848 | comment |
Will They or Won't They?: Iceman and Rogue. Iceman seems disappointed that Rogue "cured" herself, even though she did it for both of them. It's unknown what their relationship is now, especially since the cure is temporary. Iceman and Kitty is hinted at, especially during the ice skating scene. | |

Beauty Is Never Tarnished | |

Beauty Is Never Tarnished: Storm gets into some pretty rough fights scenes with Callisto, but never comes away with anything worse than tussled hair. | |

Innocently Insensitive: Storm derides those wanting to take the cure and who wish to fit in as "cowards." Beast immediately chides her for it. | |

Obi-Wan Moment | |
| X-Men: The Last Stand / int_ffb34813 | comment |
Obi-Wan Moment: While fighting the Phoenix, Xavier briefly smiles at Wolverine before being disintegrated. And at the very end of the movie it turns out Xavier's Not Quite Dead. In fact, this film's commentary track is the Trope Namer. | |
