    So far, the trailer has met my expectations. Definitely has Singer's touch. Cannot wait to see how this film turns out.

    I always thought this was going to be quality and so far I think I'm going to be proven right.

    Damn. This might actually be a great X-Men movie for once.

    I thought the first two were great, and the third could probably have lived up to them without having everything and the kitchen sink thrown in.

    The less said about Wolverine the better, though.

    Back when it was "X-Men Origins: Magneto", the plot was basically Magneto killing Nazi's, which had me very exited. :D Hopefully, it's still that now. ;"

    Nice to see Emma Frost in there, in any case. :)

    This looks pretty good. I really enjoyed X-Men 1,2 and Origins:Wolverine, 3rd one not so much. I'm not really expecting much though, seeing as of late, some movies that have been hyped were a bit of a disappointment.

    Holy shit @ James McAvoy's Xavier, the sexy ass Mystique chick, the badass playing Magneto, and Azazel :uh:

    Wish they would have shown more of the first 5. Can anyone tell me who was the red person teleporting towards the end?

    The only character who was an original member who'll be in this film is Beast, if that's what you mean. It's a prequel set a few decades before the first three X-Men films, so I guess in this continuity Cyclops, Iceman, Jean etc are all either too young or not even born.

    And I'm guessing that's Azazel.

    I'm quite surprised it looks as good as it does. It seems Fox have learned their lesson (one which should have been obvious in the first place).

    I just read that Havok is supposed to be in the film, so I guess they're not adhering to the comic book continuity religiously.

    Of course not, this is a return to Singer's rendition of the story.

    Well, yeah, I'm just wondering what that means for his character. Is he not Scott's brother, or is he just his older brother now?

    NERD SPECULATION HAVE TO SEE MOVIE

    He'll have to be unrelated, I think.

    The other options are, they make him Cyclops' father or a time traveller. ;P

    Maybe something terrible happens to Havok by the end of this film, or by the supposed trilogy's end, and Professor Xavier chooses to erase any memory of the event.

    I think an event like this actually occured within the comics if I remember correctly ( have only read summaries ).
