April 15, 200916 yr Ah right I see. So has it been confirmed that A.) he's had/got cancer in this film and B.) has undergone Weapon X treatment? I didn't know he had anything to do with Weapon X and thought he was a vigilante of sorts - how silly of me! :lol: Weapon X tried to cure his cancer using something to do with the Wolverine healing factor, but he was nothing before that, so i dont know how he would have such a big role pre-scars in the movie. the movie looks pretty $h!t imo anyway, and looking back the X-Men films arent really up to standard, decent comic book movies FTW. (like TDK style, its werid how 'The Dark knight Returns' comic book by Frank Millar upped the comic industry, helping it aim at more older audiences, and then the same happened with 'The Dark Knight' film, but with comic book movies rather than comic books.
April 15, 200916 yr Author Producer Lauren Shuler Donner has confirmed that the X-Men: First Class film will be a prequel to the Marvel movie series. Speaking to Comics Continuum, Donner explained that the project will focus on the formation of Professor Xavier's school for mutants and some of its early residents. "It is the first class of Xavier's school, way back when, so it's young Scott, young Jean, young Beast and that'll be really fun," she said. "I think [the plan]is to follow some of the characters into their own stories, and weave them back into the X-Men world." She added: "And hopefully First Class will become its own franchise and we can follow them as they grow up." Gossip Girl and The O.C. creator Josh Schwartz has been commissioned to write the script for the movie, which will continue Fox's $1.2 billion franchise.
April 15, 200916 yr I just read about the X-Men: First Class thing and am unsure. I always thought this is what they should have done with the X-Men films in the first place: with Spiderman and Fantastic 4 (as far as I'm aware) they stayed faithful to the comics, but with X-Men the team was just a mish-mash of the most popular characters. In the First Class film the team should be Cyclops, Iceman, Angel, Beast and Jean Grey, which was the original team, but I worry that only Iceman and Jean have 'cool' powers. Also I worry that they're going to make it into a more of a teen soap opera rather than a comic book film. In short, I'm interested yet deeply worried!

April 18, 200916 yr X-men First class sound slike it'll be craptacular it needs to be the original 5 x-men i hated that the x-men films were not faithful, the whole Phoenix thing was rubbish, a big missed oppertunity for an amazing film
May 2, 200916 yr I saw this tonight and quite enjoyed it. I haven't seen any of the other X Men movies or very many comic book films. The other two being both Fab 4 movies.
May 2, 200916 yr I saw it on Wednesday when they had a sneak preview. It was better than I had expected, I'd give it 2½ stars out of 5. I usually dislike prequels but this worked just fine. Loads of action, short running time and so on. Of course there was nothing great in this film and I do think all three X-Men films are better than this but anyways nice no-brain entertainment.
May 2, 200916 yr Saw this today and loved it. Waaaaaay better than the terrible X Men 3, but not as good as X2. Explained a lot and I always thought Wolverine was the best X Men character.
May 2, 200916 yr Saw it Wednesday and loved it. Good balance of emotion and action and Hugh Jackman did a great job. The only slight negative I have was that it seemed like Wolverine vs Sabretooth every 5 minutes and looked like it was the same scene time after time :lol: But other than that (and what they did to Deadpool) I thought it was great!

Aah! The Vonderful Nightcrawler!
May 3, 200916 yr i'd pay to see that x-men origins: second genesis when storm, nightcrawler etc joined would be another cool movie
