Ok, I just saw X2 last night and really loved it, but I had a problem with the end.
Why did Jean Grey have to die? Couldn't storm have frozen the lake, or at least built an ice dam around them? Iceman or whoever else that was should have been able to do the same thing. In the mansion he just busts out this wall of ice that seperates Wolverine from Stryker, so why couldn't he do it at the end? Hell, they could have frozen the whole thing around them, and had storm heat up the area around them and they could have tunneled out.
And, if the ending is indicating some sort of a trasformation by jean into another form, I still have a problem with her dying. Because, if death was neccesary, couldn't she have died trying to capture magneto or something more worthwile?
