To Me, My X-Men (2024)

Matthew Waterson: Magneto

Quotes 

• [the X-Men rush to Professor Xavier's office and see Magneto, who places the old portrait of the team back on the wall with his magnetic power] 

  Magneto : Charles Xavier was the finest man I knew. Despite our differences, he never ceased to have faith in our friendship, nor forgive my many failings. Perhaps that is why the old fool has done this.

  Cyclops : Magneto, what are you doing in our home?

  Magneto : Your home? I beg to differ, Cyclops.

  [Magneto hands a book to Cyclops] 

  Magneto : The last will and testament of Charles Francis Xavier. As you all will see, his fortune, his school, everything he built, everything he fought for, now belongs to me, my X-Men.

• Magneto : [Jubilee is running Roberto through a simulation of Magneto in the Danger Room]  Hear me! Humanity's days are over! We are nature's favored children. A new age begins as we build a bright mutant future upon...

  Roberto Da Costa : Video games are for nerds!

  Jubilee : Oh, it's no game, buddy. It's the Danger Room. It's where we train. That's Magneto, the Professor's ex-bestie. They had, uh, different takes on human-mutant co-existence. So, what can you do? Fly? Teleport? Shoot gold balls from your body? That'd be weird.

  Roberto Da Costa : But, like, he's not even real.

  Magneto : You would turn your back on your own?

  [the simulation Magneto hurls an I-beam at Roberto, who narrowly dodges it] 

  Jubilee : Better show me those powers, tough guy.

  Roberto Da Costa : Seriously, girl, get a life!

  [Wolverine tackles Roberto to the ground from behind, then extends two of his right-hand claws on either side of Roberto's head] 

  Wolverine : Show the lady some respect.

  Roberto Da Costa : Oh, so scary, Jubilee. Can we stop now?

  Wolverine : Computer, end program.

  [the simulation ends. Roberto is shocked to learn Wolverine is real. Wolverine then extends his left-hand claws in front of Roberto's face, to the youth's horror] 

  Wolverine : Scary enough for you, bub?
