I must have missed the bit where he was named (probably when I went out to take a piss), but from what I can see on IMDB, Bettys "boyfriend" was Doc Samson!
That's awesome. Hope Samson doesn't get handled the way Beast was in X-men III. (After getting mentioned in the previous, but not showed as mutant, then thrown into the story in X-3 without no real explanation.)
I think most X-Men fans saw that as him using that device (the name escapes me right now) that he and Nightcrawler etc, would use to pass as humans when out in public.
Okay... How does that help those who haven't read all the comics?
he's a mutant. mutants look weird sometimes. comic readers can read into that he had the holographic projector when they see him, non comic readers probably ignored the quick 2 second bit with him on tv in X2.

I dont think anything they did with Beast ignored the previous film!
Not apart from him looking like a human in the previous movies. What irked me and others was that suddenly, Beast was in Xavier's school and plotted with the other mutants without introducing himself (IIRC). Normal reaction to that would be: "Hey... who are you and what are you doing here?" Granted, that was probably not the only plot-hole in X-3, with all the lack of editing in that movie.
I remember quite clearly a scene where he showed up at the school and was greeted with a "long time no see" and it was clear he was a former student. it's a school, people graduate from schools and move on.
