Remember X-Men: The Last Stand? If the answer is no, congratulations on your selective memory skills or filmic fortune-telling ability. To be fair, it wasnt all bad, but there was plenty of bad to go around, from the mishandled Dark Phoenix plot to the unceremonious offing of key characters. Picking out flaws is like shooting fish in a barrel with a bazooka, but Magnetos ragtag group of unimpressive cronies is certainly another weak link. You remember them: Sonic the Hedgehog, The Girl With The Average Tattoos and Mighty Hermaphrodite. Terrifying. For a certified boss, Magneto sure kept some unimpressive company, as evidenced by right-hand-man Pyro. If youre trying to remember which one he is, he was the guy who could manipulate fire and kinda looked like Jesse from Breaking Bad, only you dont like him. He first showed up in the excellent X2, telling a policeman "You know all those dangerous mutants you hear about in the news? I'm the worst one." Not quite, Pyro. Compared to your little emo mates, youre just a bit lame. Why he should accept the challenge: Well, for one, by The Last Stand his bouffant was getting out of hand and was probably on the brink of growing teeth and fingernails, so we wouldnt mind seeing that thing taken down a notch. More importantly, the last time he took on a challenge involving ice, it didnt go so well. Squaring off against former best bud Bobby, aka Iceman, Pyro took part in one of cinemas dullest face-offs and got knocked spark out. Maybe the Ice Bucket Challenge is more his speed.

I watch movies and I watch sport. I also watch movies about sport, and if there were a sport about movies I'd watch that too. The internet was the closest thing I could find.
