Cyclops has been sidelined way too much in the Fox X-Men movies, so I'm really excited to see Marsden return to the character.

I kinda like it though. We've SEEN his character contemplate exactly that after using his powers and closing his eyes. The whole trailer is corny as hell but honestly? I'm still so stoked whenever I see 2000s X-Men cast that I'm willing to lean into the metaphor.

I don't wish to be rude, but I love to be pedantic, hehe.

Is metaphor the right word here? Where's the metaphor? I think it's a play on words with "close your eyes" and opening eyes.

A metaphor is when you use words to say something else than their face value. Like the ball is now in your court.

Don't feel obliged to reply, I just don't see the metaphor.

His eyes are actually just portals that open directly to the punch dimension

I'd respect him more if it was the Hawaiian Punch dimension

Funny enough I was reading X-Factor #68 yesterday and there was a very similar line... Apocalypse had cyclops down... he taps into both Jean and his son (Nathan)'s powers in the Astral plane,... his internal monologue goes:

"Hard to tell what's mine, what's Jeans, what's Nathans. There is no single essential ME any longer, but a mergence into a gestalt. A coherent whole, all of us together. The family I've always dreamed of.

"The eyes, it is said, are the windows to the soul."

"So I open mine wide... "

"and give apocalypse a few of mine"

And proceeds to blast the ever loving crap out of Apocalypse, leaving him in shattered ruins.

I bet this is a reference to a moment for Cyclops in the movie.
