First Look at X-Men: First Class | Superhero Hype

These are not Halloween costumes ... repeat

[The Bat]

I love it! They look much more like X-Men Costumes. And with a good Director, and a decent Cast...I have hope for this Movie.

I thought they were supposed to be doing First Class which was the original 60s group; what happened along the way? I can see a blue furry Beast, Emma Frost, Mystique and some red guy. I also see a hairy Professor X! I'm guessing he loses his hair along the way through stress .

Man, why can't they just leave things along and do something properly for a change.

I've given up hope that they'll ever make another good X-Men movie. X2 was amazing then it all just fell apart.

I've enjoyed the X-men series right through to Wolverine. This one appears to be right in line with the others. Look forward to it.

[Earth 2 Chris]

I'm guessing the previous movie continuity is out the window here?

Where's Cyclops? I thought he was in this, at least.

Chris

I look forward to seeing how this develops.

Hmmmm....

I think one of the things you have to tolerate when any team comic makes the jump to another medium is that they're gonna cherry pick what they use. So you get the most popular stories with the currently popular characters; leading to a weird mishmash of ideas. (Kinda how Rogue was popular during the original movies, so they kinda fudged her into the Kitty Pryde role.)

Who's playing Emma Frost/White Queen

Could the red guy be Mr. Sinister?

There are some more pics here;

Emma Frost is palyed by January Jones, who is Don Drapers wife Betty in Mad Men. It seems the red guy is Azazel. I must of missed his storyline.

This is going to tank so bad. Read some of the initial comments on superherohype. Not one positive. Why oh why can't people just stick to the original source material.

[WannabeMego]

This is gonna TANK!!!

Matthew Vaughn has directed Layer Cake, Stardust and Kick ***. I'm going to definitely give this one a chance.
