I KNOW, RIGHT? I will occasionally come across people who didn't see the slash and kind of double-take in amazement. Like, okay, whatever floats your boat, no big...BUT TWO GENERATIONS OF THEIR ACTORS SHIP IT AND IT WAS PLAYED LIKE A ROMANCE AND OMG. If that relationship doesn't ping as even a little homoerotic, what does? 8|a
Haaaaha, yeeeah, I still don't know what the original Kitty is supposed to be like. ~o~ Just never encountered her outside Evo, really. And man, I downloaded X1 and X2 a while back too and I've been meaning to rewatch them...but on the other hand I'm kind of apprehensive about doing that because I don't necessarily think that First Class Charles and Erik grew up into Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan's versions (so many continuity discrepencies), so I'm a little wary that my view of their relationship in FC would be influenced. Also, their star-crossed angst would probably hit me much harder this time around. ;A;
