Did anyone else think this project was X-Men related?


Because I sure did... and was really excited about it until I read the description and found out it had nothing to do with everyone's favourite Cajun X-Man. So yeah, just wondering.

I felt cheated after reading the plot description. Gambit was my favorite as a kid.

I, for one, am relieved. As soon as I saw "Gambit" 2009 I thought "Noooooo. One of the last characters I like is going to be [swearyword]-ed up by those [lotsofswearywords] in hollywood!!!!!"
Now I feel so much better that the name is taken :o Phew.

I totally did
damn it
I was like so hyped up for a second
I wish they did make a gambit movie

yes i did..and i was very happy
i thought colin firth would play gambit and jenifer aniston as rogue..i was like "wow..they're old"..and then started to think this probably the story about gambit after get married..

then i went to the board and saw "who should play gambit thread"..then i thought..wow.."this is real" but havent decide who should play gambit..

and then...one thread about "this is not x-men's gambit"...that's hurt..
ZZZZZZZ.....I dont have anythinG

Yeah, I started to get really excited, until I read the plot.

I'm guilty too, but I'm probably the only one that go to this page via Lisa Bonet's!

When I saw the name, I just assumed it was. Oh well.

I was scrolling through the front page and saw something about this. I was just starting to yawn and I think I gasped while yawning somehow. Then my brain quickly remembered that this wasn't a movie about my favorite X-Men character.


Maybe one day we'll get a movie about him, we don't know yet for sure.

I saw this on the main page and thought it was about Marvel's playing card throwing Cajun too.
