X-Men/Lost Connection

[jif]

Hey, I'm new to the forums and I just wanted to talk about some X-Men/Lost connections:

-On one of the episodes of X-Men the X-Men go to an island (which I believe is owned by Magneto but I'm not sure since I'm doing this from my childhood memory) and professor X, who is normally in a wheelchair, is able to walk much like Locke in Lost.

-There are huge magnets on the Lost island and Magneto owned the X-Men island.

-In X-Men there are dinosaurs on the island which might be the equivalent of the 'monster' on the Lost island (or 'munster' as Jay and Jack call it).

-This is a stretch but I might as well throw it in there. Walt reads that spanish comic book and X-Men is a comic book too..

Please post on what you think about these connections and if this has already been said then I'm sorry it's my first day.

This must be the X-Men cartoon? I don't believe I recognize it from the comics (although I haven't actually read them in about oh...5 years now)

Yeah, the saturday morning variety to be exact.

Interesting...I wouldn't be surprised if members of the Lost crew were fans of comic books; I guess the closest parallel in comics is the Savage Land, a 'lost' section of Antartica with a tropical climate and unusual wildlife.

Heh. Interesting finds, but I have a gut feeling that it's not a possibility. That, and the writers have said that the monster isn't a dinosaur.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that.
