Canon Storm - Storm from the 40+ years of comic books.
Movieverse Storm - Storm from the movie.
It's a nice shorthand way to seperate the two. I think of Storm in the canon sense as comics always. Because if you find Storm in fanfic, she's not canon Storm, she's ____ writer's Storm. Shadowlands Storm, or Wings and Dreams Storm, or whatever. Therefore it's easy to shorthand the movie Storm to Movieverse Storm.
As for inconsistencies of Storm in the comics - that's why we write fanfiction. =) To fix 'em. If the comics were perfect, there'd be no need for fanfiction, no 'problems' to correct or explain. If one wants to 'fix' Storm and Creed in the movie, as you say, more power to them. But no one has made me believe it, and I don't particularly like the idea that thinking "Ro/Creed shipper fic is crappy" is going to give someone the right to flame me for offending them. I gave my reasons for thinking the way I do above, and apparently you didn't find fault with the logic. =)
