LOL JK

No Boscopinions for y'all tonight! I actually thought this movie was bloody incredible. Best superhero film I've seen aside from The Dark Knight.

Heh, haven't heard "BOSCO'd" in a while. :P

For real though, this movie was great! Even better than Captain America. For all the buzz Fassbender got, I honestly though McAvoy was equally impressive.

Well it's really easy, for instance, I could post a picture of a spider and say that it's Gwyneth Paltro and he won't think twice before clicking the link only to find his worst fear on the other end.

Of course I wouldn't do that, I like my friendship with Anri right where it is, thank you.

It poses no continuity errors, because X3 and Origins doesn't exist in the canon anymore.

the director has stated specifically that x:men first class is a prequel to "the x-men trilogy"

i dunno what makes you think origins is not canon despite being made by fox as well, but i hope you are right because it makes no sense at all in the "canon" which is already terrible

just face facts: fox needs to get rid of the license, they suck at handling these films.

Apparently the director has recently stated he doesn't consider X3 and Wolverine part of the canon. Which is an improvement, but he should still just ignore all the other X-movies and start a new continuity.

Well no s***, but they make good money off of them regardless, so they're gonna keep doing it, and Marvel can't get the licenses back unless Fox forgets to make a movie within a certain amount of years, so you can expect an X-Men movie within about every five years. Which will make Anri happy.

And First Class was good anyway, and it has been stated that the movie was acting as if X3 and Origins never happened. It makes sense, considering it doesn't fit in with those movies in the slightest. I'm pretty sure that's official, but I don't have a source... let me see if I can find one.

And this isn't true - there's still continuity errors like Xavier claiming Cyclops was the first X-Man in X-Men, which isn't the case according to First Class. Can't think of any other errors right now, but I'm pretty sure there are more.

For sure. I would like a sequel to First Class, but I do indeed wish they would just start the whole thing over, because it could be a whole lot better.

I would nerdgasm all over the place if they made a new continuity with X-23, Phoenix (not the s***ty one they already attempted, but one that actually matches the comics), Archangel, and maybe Fantomex.

Actually, I meant that he should ignore the other X-movies if he's going to continue the First Class continuity. I have no problem with the continuity First Class established, except for stuff like ****ing Darwin apparently being one of the primary X-Men >_>

He wouldn't be unstoppable, but Cyclops is pretty cool at times.

Like this for instance, when he proceeds to blow the s*** out of the Sentinel that had the audacity to trample his prized garden.

My problem with Darwin is that...

spoilers


He shouldn't have died like that, his body should have still adapted to it.

end spoilers.

Otherwise I'd be fine with this continuity taking over and forgetting the other movies too, as long as the chances were the same for those previous characters I mentioned to show up.

The weird continuity snarls with the other movies would bother me, but so would stuff like Havoc not being Cyke's brother. Stuff like that. I know it's nitpicky but the so-called "First Class" in the movie is compromised of so many random characters that it's weird to me.

Probably wouldn't ruin my enjoyment of the movie, but there'd be a little voice in my head constantly going "....what?" at the lineup.

and yeah, the fact that the "first class" is a bunch of b list losers who didn't even make the cut of the 50 million characters used in the other films is pretty lame. especially since they don't even try to do anything interesting with the characters. the only interesting parts of the movie involve xavier and magneto, and even those are few and far between.

That's because he's saying "The Dark Knight" which is indeed not the same, and indeed better than Batman Begins.

From: Murphiroth | #034

I think he is actually, because his last name was Summers, and anyone who was paying attention would immediately tie that to Cyclops (I sure did, I didn't know who Havok was before this movie).

considering how every media format outside of the comics books gives cyclops the shaft, I really don't care if he does ever show up in these movies and he is my favorite character.

and Batman Begins, I personally like it more than TDK, but both are fantastic.

That doesn't really make sense when it comes to their ages, though. From what I've heard, he's not his brother, but is related to him in some way. Probably his father, which really bugs me. I know I'm nitpicking, though. But I can't help it, it bugs me.

I thought he was just altered to be Cyke's older brother instead of younger.

As for the Cyclops hate, he sure as s*** isn't the best X-Man, but he's not the worst. He is a supreme ass at times though, especially lately.
