The original members of the X-Men in the comic ... many moves, and they actually learn to do some tricks during the movie.

The first being the dark ... he hardly ever made a mistake on his compositions. He did everything perfectly in his mind, never settling for mediocrity. Even when the Emperor told him that there was too many notes in his opera, in Mozart's mind it was perfect. Salieri was a jealous man, and it is hard to find any sympathy for a man like that.

In the ... the movie they never said anything about Heth going to get shoes in Gettysburg.

The third major difference that I recognized was the ending, Fenimore's book told of Magua's end as him falling to his death off a cliff during a chase with Hawkeye.
