...ok, so the tragedy of the scene is somewhat mitigated by the deus ex machina arrival of Charles alien empress girlfriend (no, really) and Scott's space pirate dad (because, why the hell not?) arrive to save Charles life by taking him to space with them.
I just LOVE your commentary. It does such a good job of showing the brain-bending mix of utterly tragic, emotionally moving moments and ridiculously absurd WTF??-occurrences that is X-Men (and hopefully will be forever). Though the best thing about is how we as fans just take it in stride (sure, Scott's daddy's a space pirate, why not? X-Men abducted into space in the middle of a showdown involving an imaginary Hellfire-Club and a green blob? Happens everyday... :D)
