talktoolooseI mean, they've disappointed us before, but the initial line-up for "X-Men: First Class" is kind of WOW.
James McAvoy as Xavier? Rosamund Pike as Emma Frost? Michael Fassbender as Magneto?
Fuck Wow.
I haven't seen "Kick-Ass" yet, but I hear it was great, and that movie's director is set to direct First Class. Maybe they'll get it right?
Now, the extreme youth of both Xavier and Magneto here suggests that the story might spend significant time in the past, perhaps when they met and became friends. I mean, even if the story takes place 15 years before X1, that would still make Xavier and Magneto 50-something when the school opens.
I would love to see it begin in the 60s or earlier. Very cool.
I know they'll probably fuck it up, but maybe they won't? Please?
