Anytime. I think it is a missed opportunity because they could have started fresh and forgotten about the previous X-movie which I don't really like at all. But instead, they are trying to conform to that continuity. Either way, I just hope Fox Studios loses or gives the rights back to Marvel somehow, let the X-Men be for about 5-7 years, then bring them back right, Marvel Studios style.

This whole movie is going to rape the movie cannon anyway.

I liked the previous movies even the third one which I disagreed with a lot of things there. I would have honestly prefered a movie completely unrelated like you said or even X-Men 4. There were some things like the cure being permanent or not that could be used IMO. I really wish I am wrong and this movie will turn out to be amazing but from what I have seen so far I doubt.

I was just staring at those pictures and found myself going into a 5-minute inner rant about all the stupid in them.

BOO! I'm so sick of poorly done reboots and studios milking franchises just to maintain the rights. It's total BS. What's the point of continuously making crappy movies that'll bomb just so Marvel can't profit from making decent films? Ugh, greedy is a bitch.

ಠ_ಠ I don't know any cuss words bad enough to describe what I think of that picture. Honestly. I've been saying that I'll only see X-Men First Class because my X-Men fandom obligates me to. Now I'm kinda wondering if even that is going to be enough to make me see it.

Thanks, k4tz. It's almost 1:00 and is the first time I've been home all day...drinking some whiskey now to relax. I'll update the OP with the Magneto and Professor X pictures.

Michael Fassbender looks absolutely nothing like Ian McKellen.

Nice article on Bane and Catwoman being cast, by the way. @power- You know, as awesome as Sir Ian is, I was never a big fan of him as Magneto. He is just too old and too far from the peak physical condition Magneto is usually displayed with.

Gracias. The link I posted with the mags pick has remarks by Matthew Vaughn, responding to negative feedback of the pictures.

Yeah, I read an article that said he was extremely pissed about the image that was released and that it was unauthorized, then another article that said he was straight lying about it. Also, another article saying the movie is a complete mess and he is away from the set editing while the rest of the movie is being filmed. Idk what to believe at this point, but all of this negative attention is just making things worse.
I could update this article with some of this info, but I won't make a new thread since I don't want to flood this News Section with rumors or too many articles.
I don't think I actually heard your opinion on these images/rumors? I know you are not remotely excited for it (neither am I).

Heh, yeah. My feelings exactly. Like I've probably already said; nothing about this movie so far has proven to me that it is worth any amount of my money or time. It just looks like a damn mess.
Hopefully, this is the nail in the coffin for Fox Studios and X-Men movies. I hope this thing grosses next to nothing, so they have no choice but to let it go. Fox are a bunch of assholes though, so I wouldn't count on it.
