Banshee Cameo In Wolverine Movie

Good God. Who's next? Sunfire? Thunderbird? Havok?

Banshee is awesome, would like to see his power onthe big screen. Anyone getting an ear ache yet!

man i love banshee, (theres not many irish superheros!) but i cant believe its a cameo..and a non speaking one! i mean whats the point?

is this movie just going to be one long cameo for every marvel character who hasnt showed up in a movie yet? thats kinda how it comes off.

Well, in my opinion, i don't mind him, i don't think i'd like a whole movie about him so a cameo suits me fine. I though he was kinda cool on the X-Factor tv movie... or show (i don't remember). But i think it sucks that the Irish don't have that many cool superheroes. Banshee's kinda watered down to "represent" i find. I mean, i never been to Ireland but it's on my top three places for upcoming trips. I think they deserve a better hero.

mmmm, well i havnt heard of all of there..slaine and cassidy are shit cool but not exactly superheroes! black tom is banshees cousin right? and siyrns his neice or daughter. yep, ireland definately needs a new breed of comic hero...maybe ill just have to invent one!

Maybe you can invent something like...The Emerald Avenger. Or is that too GL like? Sorry, i'm partial. Ire of the Isle? He can be created by the Irish scientist from ancient times, as seen in the Family Guy episode where they're researching their history. He protects people like the Minoans and Celts and Phoenicians etc etc from the ravages of (Marvel) people like En Sabah Nur (Apocalypse), or Selene and whatever other Externals were around then (not Cannonball because he was born in Kentucky) or he could be DC and protecting ancient civilizations from Vandar Adg (Vandal Savage) and Teth Adam (Black Adam) and Lilith. Either way he should have Earth, Light, and Fire (the origin of the Irish flag, you likey?) powers. He can call forth plants and stones and such, create blinding light of the whole visible spectrum, or negate light to make things pitch black, and pyrokinesis. AWESOME SUPERHERO! You can name him, or her, however you'd like, i've come to the conclusion that my names thus far have sucked...

Ion, when you say "Either way he should have Earth, Light, and Fire (the origin of the Irish flag, you likey?) powers." Are you suggesting that the tricolor of Ireland was chosen to represent elements?

If so, I should tell you that the tricolor of Ireland basically represents Catholic (green) peace or a truce between (white) the Protestants (orange).

But cool ideas none-the-less.

yeah i definately think earth light and fire is cooler than the religious bollix! thats a really good idea. of course we could always go the paraody route...10canman...after 10 cans of beer hel fight anyone!

No worries, I wasn't sure Ion, that's why I said "if so". I can't have someone walking around thinking my native flag had something to do with elements, but like rorschach01 says, and I agree, it's a cooler take on it. Kind of like getting back to the Celtic pagan roots.

Here's an idea,

What about a guy who is built sort of like Thor and has the ability of terrakinesis, he can shape earth. But only into weapons, like hammers, axes, claymores etc. And to play on some Celtic mythology (because apart from giants there really isn't much there) he happens to have the blood of Cuchulainn, who is sort of like an Irish Achilles, running through his veins and that offers him a degree of invulnerability and super strength as well as a single drop of the blood on his earth weapons makes them unbreakable as long as he's holding them.

(Hmmm... this could be good, maybe I'll sketch it out.)

vex thats shit cool! i have been out done by a couple of lads that aint even irish! right i have to get the thinking cap on. 200 ad character slaine is sort of a cuculainn type dude..he even carries the gae bolga..his famaous spear. as far as mythology goes we also have the kelpie..its a pretty gruesome demon that comes from the sea to eat people..captain kelpie! thats a joke by the way. see banshee is already such a great character, i always wished they used him in more long running stories. i started reading gen x when i found out he was going to be in it but it didnt amount to much. i think they may have actually killed him off..anyone know?

Vex, those are great additions, I think we have th making of a great Irish character. I wish I could draw...I would totally do this up.

But as for your question Ror, yes, he died trying to save a plane full of people. See, he was stabbed in the throat and hadn't fully healed his vocal cords yet. So when the plane was out of control, he tried using his sonic scream to slow it down and redirect it, but with the vocal cords not fully healed, it didn't work. Slammed into him, and it crashed, killing him and the passengers on board. That's at least 2 X-Men killed by a plane...

Noob, they're not useless, just not impervious when out of his hands. Once they leave his hands they're just normal weapons that cann still kill and maim, but he can't, for instance, throw them at a rock golem and expect them to work.

I'm getting sick of all the freakin cameos in these movies..

Who else is going to make a cameo in this? X-23, Psylock, Cyclops, Beast, Night Crawler, Boomer, Sunfire?

hey stars n stripes is that true about simon pegg?

Actually, if this new Irish hero has "druidic" powers there is only one name that's cool enough for him...

SHAMAN!!!

that shaman kicked the bucket so i think it would be ok! they have actually killed of a few mwmbwes of alpha flight..vindicator, puck, northstar..im sure theres more. i used to like that team actually.

i just found out recently that sabertooth was beheaded! i dont read every x title going but man that was kept quiet!

If they say Apocolypse is going to be in this I'm going to put a horses head in the writers Bed!!!!!

And as for the Magneto origins as we tirelessly mentionned before, it will suck. You cannot have both of them become enemies before they build cerebro and also before they even recruit Jean Grey! It was already established that these two were working together, hand in hand, before they struck differences. It makes no sense what so ever in the previous X-men films's continuity! What are FOX making they're own reboot now? WTF?!?!?!?!?!?

This movie is going to suck because Fox has no idea what they are doing when it comes to comic book movies. The x-men films have been some of the worst comic movies made to date which is a real shame, because they in my opinion are among the best comics

xmen movies worst to date? sorry i 2nd the need for an explanation there smythefactor

haha, halloween antics my friend! we all dressed up as comic characters so i have a lot of pics to choose from. by the way, have any of you made any fansites yet?

sabertooth looks awesome! they actually made him a 3 dimensional character instead of the mute henchman from xmen1. and you will see silver fox and maverick. and the movie is set in present day, the ww2 stuff is flashbacks. and why would you want to see wolverine in a costume when he didnt start wearing one until he joined the xmen?
