Yeah ... it was still kind of funny though. I was trying to explain to Mandy why I was laughing. The line was said so badly though.
Fontroy, Nightcrawler is in the game because he's not in the film - I think they're trying to appease his fans (like you). Also, apparently the novelisation of the movie has why he wasn't in the film (like anyone will read it.)

Apparently he was also too lazy to be bothered with all the make-up stuff worse than doing Worf, we hear.

Well, there's a famous (at least, famous as Internet in-jokes go) video where some slightly strange guy dubbed over an entire animated X-men episode with his own lines, mainly comprising Juggernaut saying "I'm the Juggernaut, bitch!" and other such comments. Obviously Ratner thought he'd get 'in' with the geek crowd As for the other ones... 'all your base are belong to us' is a line from a cult video game from the '90s, done in very bad translated English, and 'Leroy Jenkins' is from a screenshot of a computer game, where this whole crew of guys are playing together, and sorting out tactics and weaponary and magic and everything else before attempting a really hard fight; halfway through, one character just gets bored and charges into the room shouting "Leroy Jenkins!" and gets them all slaughtered. It's actually quite funny, as these things go. That's your internet in-joke education taken to the next level of geekiness; pleased to have been of service. Look 'em up on Wikipedia if you (for some reason) want to know more.

Internet in-jokes are class. Although, you can never really bring them up in conversation outside of the internet unless you want to be stared at a lot. I was trying to explain to someone why the Juggernaught video is funny, but it only seems to be people who are internet geeks who find it amusing.

Fortunately, my school is 100% internet geeks, so things like this can be mostly Said Aloud.

hey!
did anyone catch the fact that cain marco (juggernaut) is Xaviers half brother, but in the movie they say nothing to eachother.
And Juggernaut's helmet is like magical, yet in the movie it has rebar showing through. lol
I just wanted to point out some more mistakes.

Well, like I said, details such as Juggernaut's relationship with Xavier and the fact that he is not really a mutant are too much for a movie like this one. The writer and director wanted someone who could do what he can, and probably thought it would be easier to just deviate from th comics a bit rather than make someone up or use a lesser known character.
