X-Men 2 (No Spoilers)
Was there a subtitle for this movie? I don't know. But what I do know is I was thoroughly entertained. I think X2 was better than the first in the series.
What I enjoyed was a greater devotion to the Human/Mutant friction with those that would incite the conflict. Its an interesting message during an interesting time.
I never had the patience or desire to following the Books (Comics), but I always enjoyed the TV cartoons (which makes me worse than ignorant I'd bet). Anyway, Morgan said that he heard the end had a treat in store for "the fans." I guessed it in the car, but didn't tell Morgan the guess until 5 minutes after the movie started. NO SPOILERS HERE.
Watching the movie actually has me considering reading more. Its too bad there isn't a library for Comic Books, how would I go about "catching up" if I wanted to ?

to 'catch up' you'd either end up buying a lot of back issues, reading trade paperback reprints of significant storylines, or reading reprints (a number of x-men titles have been re-run from time to time, IIRC).
and yes, the cartoon does make you worse than ignorant ;-)
