James Marsden as Cyclops

Marsden's early "exit" in Brett Ratner's "X-Men: The Last Stand" (a result of the actor's limited availability due to his shooting schedule on "Superman Returns") left some fans feeling cheated given how central a role Cyclops/Scott Summers had played in Bryan Singer's first two installments. Given that, it would be nice to see Marsden return to the character at least one final time - perhaps in a storyline that sees Matthew Vaughn's "First Class" X-Men traveling to the "present day" (i.e. the timeline of the original trilogy) to get a glimpse of the still-divided world of the early 21st century. Seeing Cyclops let loose with those red optic blasts again would be a real treat for fans.
