The only one I have a problem with is recasting Ellen Page. They need to completely disassociate themselves from the third movie. The first two were good movies. The second one I think is still one of the better made superhero movies.

Singer knows how to do the gay parable part really well, he's just not very good with the full-blown action sequences.

Too bad Bishop isnt in Days of Future's Past like in the cartoons.

For none other than to hear Wolverine say the line..

"You two better stop acting up...or these cards wont be the only thing I'm cutting"

Just how it was executed in the cartoon was amazing.

*sigh*

The good ole days.

Absolutely. Dealt with some very serious themes as well as being an all around solid superhero film.

The first X-Men was a good flick, especially since it kickstarted the whole superhero movie rebirth. Proved a comic book movie could be a box office draw. That movie basically gave us the last 12 years worth of nerdgasm. Don't hate.

Finally, Ill 100% agree with Magneto's portrayal in First Class. Nailed the character. I also love Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, just hated the Origins movie. Singer got him to give a solid performance in Xmen2. Ratner and whoever directed the piece of crap Origins movie did not.
