X3: minor character; prettiness
I was looking at the X-3 gallery with Eric today. Famke Janssen remains v. pretty. Eric agreed that she was pretty and said that he hadn't previously thought so -- which, okay, whatever. Also: mmm, Callisto. (Though labrets are ew.) Eric said she's supposed to have an eyepatch. And also that she looks like a butch lesbian, but that he thinks she's supposed to be a lesbian so it's okay.
I Googled her and lo, BtVS connection.

Caridad - A girl from the Philippines to whom Xander is attracted; first seen in "Dirty Girls". She too survives the climatic Hellmouth battle according to the Buffy magazine. Caridad is portrayed by Dania Ramirez.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callisto_(comics)
Dania Ramirez portrays her in the third X-Men movie. She is a member of Magneto's Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. In place of an eye-patch and physical disfigurement, this version of Callisto is beautiful, yet heavily tattooed. Her powers have also been altered to move at incredible speeds and the ability to "sense" other mutants around her, and assess their abilities and power level.
P.S. X-Men has Reavers?

Jean's hair
First movie: thought Jean was very pretty, but Rogue was still my favorite.
Second movie: Whoa! Jean is HAWT! I love what they've done with her hair (I like Storm's shorter 'do as well).
Third movie: WTF?! What'd they do to Jean's hair? It's all thin and limp looking. Oh the utter sadness (Again, like Storm's hair though).
I don't know, for me it's much more about features than anything else. Jean's hair short means it frames that incredible bone structure which, to me = very, very pretty. Jean with long, limp-looking hair (especially paired with red vinyl skin to match) = teh yuck.
And, as I'm not really familiar with the comics and their story arcs, I'm not as attached to "well, this is how the character is supposed to look" types of things (Let's face it, Storm's long, very white, obviously a wig style from the first movie? So not attractive, even if it was canon. Storm's black and white, touched by electricity hairstyle as appears in X3 trailers? Excellent).
