X-Men: First Class

[mstng86]

I can't believe they are even bothering continuing to try and make this work. The first 3 just killed me with all its inaccuracies and didn't deliver in any way.

Just by the first picture coming out of this thing, it is going to blow more than any of the rest.

I know there probably isn't that many people who care about the comic book movies anymore, but this is irritating to see how far off they make these things.

The only thing worthy of note is January Jones in the pic.

I never read any comic books as a kid but these movies have all entertained me...

[mstng86]

Even the entertainment aspect hasn't worked for me. And I love action movies. I dunno, maybe my "stick to the original" additude is blinding my opinion on the franchise.

[Cannon88]

None of them have been great, some have been OK at best. Origins:Wolverine was just plain aweful.

[CexMashean]

Needs more Bacon.

[mstng86]

Can someone possibly tell me who is who. I read these growing up, and most of these people don't stand out as a particular character. Beast, mystique and white queen all make sense. The others, I have no clue who is who. I have no idea who the red guy is.

Dude, that movie was awesome!

How can you have a "First Class", without Cyclops?

How can you have a "First Class", without Cyclops?

Or Jean Grey

Or Iceman

Who is Azazel?

I always find it amusing when people get their panties in a wad because movies don't follow the original story line of the comics they read as kids. Get over it.

As far as the X-men movies go, I thought that they were ok. The last stand was a little over the top, and hell, I enjoyed Origins:Wolverine. It was a good action flick.

The picture for this one looks pretty gay though.

Wow they really fucked this up. Hank mccoy was not beast when the xmen were first created by Xavier. Mystique was not an xmen. Where the hell is angel, cyclops, jean grey,iceman????? Havok had a stint as an xmen but that's was later. He was with X-factor. Why are they fucking ruining this franchise???? They are no way even close to the original xmen. If they're going with the first class series, they need to do more research.

I tried to keep an open mind with the first one, and most of the second, but it got so blatantly out of hand that is hard to ignore.

I get Hollywood likes to make it easier for everyone to watch, instead of the select few who read the books, but why make everything so inconsistent? The movies don't even seem to be cohesive with one another. Especially the wolverine movie in comparison to the xmen franchise.

I am fine with all the other Marvel movies they have made. I know they aren't accurate, but for some reason the X-men movies just don't add up to me.

I am hoping the picture just doesn't show them. But from what Magnus posted, they aren't even listed. I don't know what they are thinking really.

Give me some examples of what doesn't flow. Like I said, I don't know the comic storylines but I didn't see anything that distracted me from enjoying the movies.
