This X-Men movie may not be part of the strongest trilogy of X-Men movies, but it is most definitely a good one. It introduced us to characters who would play X-Men for almost two decades. Isn't that insane? This movie started two decades worth of careers.
This movie has arguably the best line in all of superhero movie history (up for debate, surely, but no doubt near the top). It's when Storm is facing Toad. She tries to blow him away with a gust of wind, but he uses his tongue to latch onto a pole. He's smiling at her (as much as you can smile with your tongue completely out), and she begins to conjure up a lightning storm. That's when she says, "you know what happens to a toad when it's struck by lightning? The same thing that happens to everything else."
