Let's be honest, Gambit appeared in DP&W, and now he's had a resurgence with some dormant X-Men TAC fans. Which is to say, I was a dormant Gambit fan, and was way too autisticly excited when I saw him walk on screen (heads up, official autism and ADHD diagnoses, keep that in mind. I've had ADHD officially diagnosed since around 6-7 years old, and Autism since around 12-13 years old). In fact I was fighting to not squeal louder than I did in the movie theater. My husband immediately noticed my excitement, and knew that something was important about that character (I did the same when I saw Jacksepticeye's cameo in Free Guy, though it was a lot less restrained back then bc I wasn't as restrained with my autistic behaviors at the time). And while I think Channing Tatum didn't have the build needed to portray Gambit, I was still happy with the portrayal given my limited knowledge of the character and limited knowledge as a Central Texan. In other words, as someone who's never known a Cajun person, nor seen more than a few minutes of X-Men TAC (which was enough to develop a love of Gambit that has always been inthe back, of my mind), I liked the portrayal outside of the difference in the body build and lack of iconic red eyes on black sclera.
With this in mind, I've set about writing fanfic about the character. And considering I don't want to upset myself by watching TAC, and '97, and the fact that I prefer the look of Gambit in TAC and '97 over his other animated appearances, and the fact that not everyone appreciates Gambit's various accent portrayals I wanna know... other than the difference between cher and shæ (the latter of which was what I found to be the pronunciation of sha according to some research from Google (something not everyone will understand when they see sha (which either will be mentally pronounced as sh-ah at best, or sh-ay at worst))), and replacing t and th with d, what else should I do to get his accent right, and what are some phrases that are good to include, and to what extent (like, how often should they appear? Like, should I endeavor to first the most in one sentence, or should it be less frequent and obvious?)
edit: guys, I get I could look over the comics for *his* accent, I’m wondering more about what a real Cajun accent would be written like… I‘m starting to think I should’ve asked a different subreddit… like… I get his accent is one way, but… I guess I’m wondering if there is a way to portray it closer to how a Cajun accent would be written…
i've always been interested how many people see gambit in different ways. for me, i stick to how i saw him in the cartoons (my first exposure was Evolution as a 2004 kid) which is a walking contradiction. honorable but untrustworthy, macho but sensitive and more stuff. and it really bugs me to see him being so butchered in comics and i feel misunderstood by fans. just curious how other people see him
I didn't like Channing Tatum as Gambit. I think his face is to big and squared to be Gambit.
So I remembered this actor and I think he would portray better.
I used help from AI to make this images the closer possible.
What do you think?
I understand that Gambit’s powers are to accelerate the kinetic energy of objects.
Batteries store potential energy, so I imagine he can’t charge a battery that way, unless there’s more to his powers I don’t know. Could he perhaps charge a generator that could convert the energy and charge a battery? What are some other potential creative uses of his powers?
I’m loving this team and jacked for the next issue. I think this is the first time since Gambit and Xternals (Age of Apocalypse) that I’ve seen Remy take the lead of a team—mind you, in his wife’s absence.
Great to see his dynamic with Logan. We haven’t seen them interact much in years.
So like we know how gambit was taken out of the void by the Dr.strange magic marvel sparkle circle right, and how we assume it’s the tva. But the TVA would use their tempads and do the little door like they always do. So who actually saved Gambit from the void????
I'm making a Gambit cosplay for Halloween but I'm also working on a budget for this. I've got a trench coat from a local thrift, gloves, the headsock and breastplate down but I'm thinking about some brown cowboy boots over the traditional silver boots and pads. It's kinda bold but I think it works and would be something Remy LeBeau would have in his wardrobe. Thoughts?
Has Gambit ever been shown being a teacher other than the time where he had a lil group of kids he was training to fight?
I saw a lotta great cosplays here and I'm trying to make my own but finding a good trench coat (and not super expensive) has been really difficult. Any tips on where to find a look alike trench coat?
It'd also be really good if it was a practical coat for winter/fall too.
