X3 ending - Warning Spoiler!

This is for 'dar' who asked about the ending. I've typed it below in white so those who dun want to noe before watching the movie can skip it. The rest can highlight the text to read it.

Basically, if those who watched the show remember, there was a scene earlier in the movie (seemingly small and meaningless) about the power of mutants. In that scene, Professor Xavier basically explained that some mutants can even transfer their consciousness from one human to the other, and they showed a scene of a person who was brain dead. In the final scene after the credits, the same brain-dead person was shown. But suddenly, he is speaking with Prof Xavier's voice... hence, the fact is, Prof Xavier wasn't killed by Phoenix (sob sob), he was able to transfer his consciousness to that brain-dead guy before Phoenix tore him apart.

If you paid attention, in that earlier scene, Prof Xavier did refer to the doctor next to the brain dead guy as Dr. Moira. She's a character in the X-men universe. Here's a snippet of some info I found on her in the net:

"Charles Xavier earned his bachelor degree in biology at Bards College and was accepted into Oxford University, where over the next few years he successful earned degrees in genetics and biophysics at the same time. While there Xavier met and fell in love with Moira MacTaggert, a fellow geneticist. The two became engaged and planned to marry upon the annulment of Moira's marriage to her first husband, Joseph MacTaggert."
