The show was a simplified form of the X-Men universe and while most of my friends seemed drawn to Wolverine, I always liked Gambit. <br /><br />Gambit had the ability to transfer energy into items and combined with misspent youth gave the ability to toss kinetically charged playing cards with uncanny accuracy and explosive results. Certainly the most stylish of the X-Men, Remy couldn't help but draw attention to himself with his long coat, ever present quarterstaff, and New Orleans accent. Few of the X-Men ever really trusted Gambit due to his background as a criminal and the fact he hit on just about every female he ever encountered. Despite that his charm made the show.<br /><br />The Gambit we saw in the Wolverine movie was a pale imitation and I hope the upcoming stand alone movie with Channing Tatum will finally do him justice on the big screen.

And sassy attitude. But if I could be any of them, Mystique. I never know who I should be either, lol.

He was awesome.Andrew Leonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13964775673414653644noreply@blogger.com
