Boycott it all you want. You're the one missing out. X3 is the least favorite for me, so i thought this made up for it. Whats wrong with sayin that?

Fassbender was great, and I thought Jennifer Lawrence as Raven was pretty good. But I was pretty disappointed in everything else. M. Vaughn just didn't go the distance with recreating the period believably. It's like he watched a bunch of MAD MEN episodes and all he took away from it was that the costumes are cool. I dont think half the cast knew what time period they were supposed to be in. Fassbender/January Jones/McAvoy didn't have to do much because they were used to it but everyone else was just fucking lost.Mr_eX wrote:Magneto stole the movie but Professor X was pretty great too.

It was better than Thor though. I'm guessing it will probably be the best superhero/comic film this summer.

That wasn't Angel as in Warren Worthington, the Angel in First Class was based on Angel Salvadore, who was way more gross in the comics. Actual Angel still exists in the movies' stupid continuity as Warren in X-men 3.

She was terrible in this movie (and look, Damon Lindelof agrees!). Looked great in her costumes, no doubt, but couldn't act her way out of a paper bag.

This is the bane of the modern comic book movie. They're too afraid to be like comic books. I've been bitching about Batman and Superman using shitty villains when they have THE best rogues galleries in comic books. X-men has a seriously retarded villain roster too and so far it has just been Magneto this and Sabertooth that. I dunno if it's the adherence to realism or lack of budget for big silly bad guys, but where are my Sentinels? Where's Apoc or Sinister? How fucking amazing would Mojo be as an X-Men villain?

It's a shame that there have been 5 (soon 6) Superman movies and neither of those guys has been featured yet.

1. January Jones is the worst actor that's ever lived. Ever. She's terrible, terrible, terrible. She's like a brick that got stoned.
2. Chuck Austen must have been paid for Azazal. Seriously. Read the reviews for each issue in the story line, might need to just change the number in the url, since the site seems to be gone. The reviews are glorious.

Because for a villain like him, absorbing either the kinetic energy of the coin or the electromagnetic energy used to move it shouldn't have been an issue.
