    I have to admit Nightcrawler's portrayal in "X-Men: Apocalypse" was genuinely a pretty cool part of that deficient movie. Kodi Smit-McPhee, the actor who played him, is a truly phenomenal and underrated young actor that knew how to capture the personality of the Kurt from the comics and 2000's movies. I also loved his portrayal of Oskar/Owen in the romantic horror film "Let Me In"

      Cool religious moment in the comic. Uncanny X-Men 159 is the first time they fight Dracula. When they realize who they're fighting, Wolverine pops a claw on each hand and makes a cross only to get swatted away. Dracula tells him it's pointless if you have no religious faith. Then Nightcrawler grabs two stakes and let's Dracula know that they are not lost for "...I believe" and shuts him down temporarily with his own cross.

    I’d like to think to myself that his teleportation powers weren’t used for the first time to save his sister but to save himself as an infant when his mother threw him down the water fall. Obviously an unconscious use of his powers being an infant but an infant can still feel fear which usually activates powers.

    Nightcrawler has been such a cool ass characters to me since X-Men animated series and their later versions. I kinda always wanted nightcrawler to be more aggressive anf brutal like he was in the train fight scene during the X-Men Dark Phoenix movie.

    Which live action version of Nightcrawler do you think is better between the one from X-Men United or the one from both X-Men Apocalypse and X-Men Dark Phoenix(Do you think the actor who played this young version of Nightcrawler should be the Nightcrawler of the MCU universe)?
