: Why did Jean Grey have to die?
--She didn't, she became Phoenix ala the comic books.
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?
--Remember how long it took Iceman to build that wall? How hard he was focusing? He wouldn't have been able to freeze all that water so fast. Storm too, probably.
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.
--The movie X-Men all use focus to use their powers accuretly, which means acting quick could be more dangerous than good.
: 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?
--Dying for the team wasn't worthwhile?
