A whole slew of new X2 pics arrive online, including this shot at right of Alan Cumming as Kurt Wagner/Nightcrawler (who looks an order of magnitude better than he did here and here six months ago.) A few spoilers scattered throughout.

To me, my X-Men.
Probably the biggest thrill of the Daredevil experience, the X2 trailer is now online. I’m not sure how they’re going to introduce all these characters enough for a layperson’s liking, but it looks like great fun for fans of the comic. Update: Faster than a Wolverine-Colossus fastball special and brighter than a Dazzler stage show, it’s now officially online in Quicktime.
Mutie Go Home.
The new X2 teaser is available for download…this doesn’t have to be very good to be better than the last Patrick Stewart film I saw…Still, I wonder why it is that as soon as you take away Ian McKellen’s putty nose he gets to be as hammy as Stanley Tucci or Phillip Seymour Hoffman.
Mein Gott!
If the Civil War ain’t your bag, another X2 pic of Alan Cumming as Nightcrawler bamffed into Newsweek recently. Still hard to say how this is going to look until we see him move.
Leather and Claws.
Several images from two sequels eagerly awaited by the fanboy nation come to light: Matrix: Reloaded and X2.
Bamf!
AICN gets their hands on the first pic of Alan Cumming as Nightcrawler in X-Men 2. Looks a bit goofy, I suppose, but there’s no real way of telling until we see him move.
Muties Gone Wild.
Fox posts the San Diego Comicon footage of X-Men 2. Brian Cox looks good, and it was a wise move to focus on Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart, but I can’t say I was completely sold by the teaser. Danger Room? Nightcrawler?
Vancouver Pryde.
Bryan Singer casts 17-year-old Vancouver resident Katie Stuart as Kitty Pryde in X-Men 2. Pretty good call to go with an unknown but, given that so much of Kitty’s backstory was used for Rogue in the first film, how will they differentiate her from Anna Paquin?
