Cyclops is the leader in the comics, but he mostly gets the shaft in the movies, coming across as a jealous jerk or hopelessly dependent on Jean Grey.

This is the main reason I don't really like the X-Men movies. I like the X-Men and the whole concept of the X-Men, but the movies are not true X-Men movies, they're Wolverine movies that just happen to feature the X-Men as secondary characters. The first X-Men film may as well have been called Wolverine and X2 may just as well been called Wolverine 2: Wolverine Kicks Some Ass. As a Cyclops fan, I was very pissed at how badly they treated him in the films. I don't blame James Marsden; they gave him almost nothing to work with. I'm really sick of Wolverine at this point; just wish Superman would show up already and fling Wolvie into space and hear him scream as he goes through the atmosphere. .
