Well, ever since I've seen the X-Men TV series, I totally loved the invulnerable Southern belle, Rogue. In this particular video you get to see how Rogue got her super-strength and her ability to fly. The story also reveals Rogues family ties with shape-shifter, Mystique. All in all, an awesome movie definitly invest your money in this one!

I found this video extremely painful to think about. I know it's just fiction but I think at one time or another we have all felt as Rogue has.

The summary of this video is that in episode one: Rogue discovers her misterius past with none other that Mystique! She tricks Rogue into following her.

Episode Two: Beast has a friend who was blind but now can see do to Beast's opperation and treatments on her. Her father is rascist against mutants and mutants haters capture the blind girl and beast goes to find her.

Rogue is one of those characters that you can really feel for. This video shows her past before the X-Men and how troubled she was. The episode was one of the most touching stories of the second season.

I love Rogue. This movie is a realy good movie for anyone wondering how Rogue got her Super Strenghth and Flying Ability. I'm not telling. The second movie is not as good, but it's ok. Instead of being about, Rogue, it's about Beast.

The mutant abilities of Ms.Marvel comes of extremaly strong psyhical will(all the others soon dissapeared}.It traps her united personality and power into Rogue's body and mind(it's clear like a mayday)-and she starts to recover!This reveals Mistique's secret hope- if the pesonal will of forgotten X-man gains control over Rogue(gaining back origin sense and power!),it can give the denied X-man - her new foster daughter ability to control skills, absorbed by use of Rogue's origin!If it's true, Mistique don't need Mr.Sinister's machinery...

Of all the X-Men, I believe most fans relate most to the character Rogue. She has a very hard time with her mutantcy due to the fact that she has no control over it. A mere touch with someone else suddenly fills her mind with memories of their lives, and causes the person touching her to fall unconcious, sometimes into a coma. In this episode, Rogue's Tale, we begin to understand more of Rogue's personality and past. Professor X has since disappeared, leaving Rogue with painful flashes of blocked memories struggling to get out. As more of her memories come back to her, we find that Rogue's history is intertwined with another superhero called Ms. Marvel. As the X-Men try to help Rogue piece together what is happening to her, the mysterious villain Mystique stands in their way. What is she trying to hide? How does Rogue's memories involve Mystique too? I strongly encourage you to watch this video as the X-Man Rogue takes center stage in what may be one of the X-Men's most touching episodes made.

Along with Rogue's Tale, we also have the episode Beauty and the Beast. In this adventure the X-Man called the Beast (apply named due to his gorilla shaped body and thick blue fur) finds romance with an infirm woman. Unfortunate for both of them, the Beast's new love has a very dominearing father who does not see past Beast's unusual form. A great example of tolerance, this episode will help others see that what you see on a person's outside does not reflect on what is in.
