NTW is, from my googling, one of those third string mutant background characters seen in some of the x-books, though I think in the comics her powers are sort of generically psychic, rather than amusingly (and appropriate to her name) explosive.
I heard the writers were looking through a list of available characters, saw the name, and without knowing anything about the character put her in the movie.
Colossus's giant boy scout routine was great. Pointing out Angel Dust's wardrobe malfunction and getting sucker punched for it was one of the best scenes in the movie.
Originally shared by Jonathan Tweet Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close. Meanwhile, the guys are work have talked me into running a couple D&D sessions for them. That was the day 13th Age was announced, and they're happy to play 13th Age instead. That will be my "Great Center" campaign, based in the imperial capital of Axis, the center of the world. It's my opportunity to explore the setting from yet another perspective.
Where did it all go wrong, Casey? I can’t pinpoint it, but it was already too late when they remade 3:10 to Yuma and took a movie that was mostly two men talking about morality in a hotel room and put in a Gatling gun.
I pretty much had Pool's reaction when I heard about the character.
ReplyDeleteI just figured she was Boom-Boom with a less shitty name.
ReplyDeleteI thought she was Cannonball from the preview.
ReplyDeleteShe was from Grant Morrison's New X-Men run.

ReplyDeleteI totally would have done that
"What's it going to be, mean comment or sullen silence?"
ReplyDelete"...ok, you got me in a box here."
She was great, as was Colossus.
