20 Things You Somehow Missed In X-Men
1. Xavier & Magneto's Final Dialogue Was Re-Used In X-Men: Apocalypse
The movie ends with a terrific dialogue between Professor Xavier (Patrick Stewart) and Magneto, with Magneto asking his old frenemy, "Doesn't it ever wake you in the middle of the night? The feeling that someday they will pass that foolish law, or one just like it and come for you, and your children?"
Xavier retorts, "It does indeed...I feel a great swell of pity for the poor soul who comes to that school looking for trouble."
If you haven't seen the original movie in quite some time, you'd be forgiven for not realising that this dialogue is repeated almost verbatim at the end of X-Men: Apocalypse - which was released 16 years later - when Xavier (James McAvoy) and Magneto (Michael Fassbender) are reunited at the X-Mansion.
Sadly it didn't land with quite the same impact the second time around, though, with Apocalypse being so aggressively mediocre and all.
