I agree. Did you guys kind of get a Malcolm X and MLK vibe from Magneto and Prof X? I definitely saw a little bit of MLK in Prof X with the "we can live in peace and they can accept us" kinda thing while Magneto had the more Malcolm attitude of "we don't need to be accepted, we should be independent and proud of who we are are". Just my two cents after taking an African American History class.
Ps. Killing Darwin, when he could possibly have the most beneficial power. C'mon man. And having Angel start out as stripper and turn to the "bad" side. SMH
X-Men was inspired by the Civil Rights Movement.
