You really make it seem really easy along with your presentation however I in finding this matter to be really something that I think I’d by no means understand. It kind of feels too complicated and very broad for me. I’m taking a look forward on your subsequent submit, I will attempt to get the hang of it!

@Bloodmage, well said. I’ve been reading this same “the comic movie will be dead soon” claim for years now. And it’s really getting old. For the most part, this claim is nothing more than wishful thinking on the part of whining fanboys who want to see comic movies go the way of the dinosaur. It has absolutely no basis in reality. Iron Man 2 and The Dark Knight were not only two of the highest grossing comic movies, but two of the highest grossing movies, period.

The upcoming comic movies won’t kill the prospect of future comic movies anymore than the Star Wars prequels killed sci-fi movies.

That being said, First Class does look like complete shit. Someone needs to inform Vaughn that showing a picture of Fassbender in what looks like an oversized foam helmet bought from a cheap Halloween store actually makes the film look even WORSE than the full cast image did. And if he really wanted to bring the X-Men movies back to something special, he shouldn’t have Z-list characters in place of the original X-Men.

If mystery girl is Polaris and Havok (aka Alex Summers) is also in this, I have a fear that they may try to make them Cyclops parents… please, no, please…

I am an outraged fan. I hate this movie and will never watch it. I rage on the Internet because I am a fan. I am so not into this project. I hate it, hate it, hate it. I am sure you are trying your best, but this is not it. You are bad people for not sticking to the continuity I love. These are not the founding members. How dare you? I am a fan. You have to listen to me. I hope the mystery woman is Big Barda, even though she is owned by the competition, but I am smarter than you and know how these things work. Use BIG BARDA OR ELSE I SCREAM. It has to be her. If it is not I want it to be an obscure character I like like Beak or Angel or Litterbug. I am so awesome. I am the biggest X-Men fan ever. I already posted Angel Salvador on IMDB and they approved it because like Wikipedia they know my knowledge is superior to theirs. IMDB and Wikipedia love me! I hate this movie so much. The Internet even told me which past movies connected to this franchise I need to hate. Thank you Internet. I am great. I am a fan. Endure my rage! And do as I told you, people at Marvel, who as far to my knowledge have complete control over this project.

P.S.: Maybe I’m wrong about the last part, but I’m pretty sure my knowledge about licensing properties to other companies for certain purposes is superior to yours. BTW Marvel has to use Wolverine in Avengers or else. Kneeeeel before my wisdom and giant-size man-thing!

Mystery girl seems to be Polaris. I’m seeing green hair.

This is a doctored image. The picture of James McAvoy is a promo pic from Children of Dune. I remember that image from the Sci-Fi website.

I hope that at the end of the movie Emma Frost gets in a time machine to the future to save Cyclops from being killed by Phoenix so that they can do the nasty together instead of Emma being old enough to be Cyclops’ mom.

Perhaps it’s Kitty Pryde?

Would it be too obvious to suggest that the mystery woman is Polaris?

Wasn’t looking forward to this reboot (because that is what it will be, in the end). This image isn’t helping any.

The comic book movie isn’t going anywhere, it’s a genre now. There’s a ton of bad romance films, cop films, horror films, etc. but they don’t stop making them. People really need to stop getting so worked up over these films. So far you’ve all seen one picture, which isn’t an official release, features none of the actors actually doing anything, and doesn’t tell anything about the story. Time to chill people, time to chill.

@Jason
I wish Marvel and DC would start taking their characters as seriously as the movie studios. Warner Brothers gave us “The Dark Knight” an impeccably-acted crime drama that challenges the audiences’ assumptions about morality and social decency. Meanwhile DC comics has Batman zipping around in his flying car, hanging out with a 10 year old superninja fighing magic bat demons and Mr. Toad from wind in the willows.

@Cristopher
The movies are just commercials to sell toys? Interesting that they chose to give the X-Men identical black uniforms in the first three movies since that’s the exact opposite of what a company trying to sell toys would do. Remember after the first X-Men movie the X-Men started wearing more functional leather uniforms in the Morrison-era comics? The only reason they went back to the traditional superhero-ish costumes was because of a corporate mandate that the X-Men needed to wear the more colorful costumes in the comics because it was better FOR MERCHANDISING! If anything, it’s the comics that are toy commercials, not the films!

The comic book movie is going to be going bye-bye for awhile which may be a good thing since studios are no longer really taking them seriously now.

@Kyle, you’re right.

For some reason I don’t know why I thought sixties. Maybe the cars and decor.

They’ve lost me. This cast makes NO sense. What someone said about this getting so far away from comics it actually hurts the industry is spot on. X-Men continuity is already convoluted enough. Those saying “chill, it’s just a movie” have lost sight of just how hurtful this is.

Looks interesting !

I love the line-up, and find it really interesting to see Magneto and Xavier together, along with Kurt Wagner’s parents. (always liked Mystique… and Azazel too).
But where is good old Banshee ?

All indications are that this is going to suck, but Fox won’t care. In their minds, this doesn’t have to please the comics fanboys or even remotely resemble a good story. It just has to sell action figures and happy meals, and my guess is it will. I will continue to hold out hope for good Cap, Thor and Avengers films, but I now have zero interest in this one.

Looks great! This movie adaptations are inspired by the Marvel Comics, not meaning they need to copy the continuity. There’s really some shake up wih this line-up, that i want to see what does it mean…
Those fundamentalist hard core fans look like they have a stick of continuity up their a**. It’s a movie, try to relax people…

You know what’s the worst part ?

If Azzazel is a success in the movie (btw notice the irony of Fassbender being there , after playing another Azzazel in the serie Hex a while ago) , we’ll see a return of the douche in the comics

*obviously the actors have seen something I haven’t… the script…

By: jpooch21

jpooch21 — Wed, 19 Jan 2011 10:16:42 +0000

I pray that this is halfway decent… I have my concerns though. You take a character created by Grant Morrison as a student in 2001, a character retroactively created by Brubaker in 2004 (at least story wise he makes sense being in the movie), and A CHARACTER CREATED BY CHUCK AUSTEN!!! CHUCK AUSTEN!!! The most hated and derided creator on Uncanny X-Men of all time. Not only do you take a character he created (and hasn’t been seen since), but its a hated character from one of the worst storylines in the history of the book. They should have just said screw the movie continuity (even more so than they already have) and made this the original five x-men in a throwback story, but instead we now are going to have millions of people thinking THIS is the history of the X-Men.

Despite my rants, I am still excited, because of the actors involved. I have no clue how they were able to pull the talent they did with what looks to be another crap Fox Marvel film. They all must have seen something that I haven’t seen, so for that reason I am holding out hope.

Anybody notice how January Jones looked like she took one of Emma’s outfits from the comics, made it red and wore it to the Globes on Sunday? She looked HOT, and made me think she was perfectly cast.

There’s a difference between “different from the comics” and “we wikipedia’d some stuff about the comics.”

This movie is in the latter category.

Who is this supposed to appeal to?

Certainly not to the average movie goer who would take one look at that picture, say “I don’t recognize ANY of these characters” and promptly lose interest because Wolverine isn’t involved.

Can’t anyone at least try to wait for the first trailer to come out before throwing a giant temper tantrum because it’s different from the comics.
