The X-President (X2: X-MEN UNITED, 2003)

This week, Ben and Eric head back into world of Marvel comic book adaptations with the 2nd entry in 20th Century Fox's long-running X-MEN movie franchise. Not only is there a fake president in it, but there's a whole lotta action in the White House! X2: X-MEN UNITED stars the usual gamut of mutants -- Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, Halle Berry, Ian McKellen, Famke Janssen, Anna Paquin, James Marsden, Rebecca Romijn -- this time joined by SUCCESSION's Brian Cox as "Colonel Striker" and the one and only Cotter Smith as "President McKenna." Who is Ben's favorite mutant?  Does the U.S. have a secret military base in Canada?  Why is it ironic that Patrick Stewart is asked to sit through the entire movie?  Why does this fake president allow public tours to go through the West Wing while he's working in the oval office?!?
