[...] weeks ago, we found out some more details regarding X-Men: First Class where it was revealed that it would be another prequel tied into the X-Men movies that we’ve seen [...]

Angel should be a runnaway from his father for a short period of time until warren sr. finds him and takes away warrens memory in a lab and that explains why angel goes to the mansion in X3 and doesnt remember because his memory was taken

Iceman will be a young bobby drake, still immature and despite his name a real hothead, eventually leaving the team for a while

New character additions:
Mimic
Polaris
Havok
Changeling

lets be real this would kick ass since its the same as the comics

Mimic turns bad
Polaris gets kidnapped by Mister Sinister, and X-men have to save her
Havok turns out to be Cyclops long lost brother and that would be ill to see the two brothers
Changeling would die because thats what happens in the comics

After Angel,Iceman,Mimic,&Changeling are out, in comes:
Gambit, especially since he’s in Origins
Storm,
Sunfire,
Thunderbird, who will also die like in the comics
Banshee

also Wolverine, but a cameo

then i would like to see a “days of future past” type thing, where Bishop, and Cable both come from the future and the present x-men have to do something to prevent an apocalyptic future, even the x-men from outerspace like Longshot and Shatterstar, and i think some sexy female x-men like:
Dazzler
Emma Frost
Psylocke, who will later turn into Revanche
Petra and Sway who both die

And at the end when many x-men have died, and others have left not able to stay for their own reasons, the only x-men will be cyclops, jean grey and storm, and that will lead up to the other 3 movies

And of course this movie would suck without:
Professor X, Cannonball and Forge

Villains:Mister Sinister,Mimic,Apocalypse,Mojo,Revanche
and Magneto and Mystique will cameo

I agree and disagree with you SK47. People don’t blame the writers nearly enough and they did play a part in the god awfulness that was x3 however Brett is more to blame. His decisions had a horrible impact on the film. Then again his decisions have a horrible impact on every film he makes.

Yes I know Batman & Robin made money as well. Point is, for this franchise, “reboot” is just foolish to mention. And lastly, as much as it pains me to say this, we should not be blaming Ratner for X3, you should get on the writers. As if Ratner knows anything about comic books, get outta here.

I love Chuck and would love to see the X-Men reimagined with the same type of dialouge and characterization. I would love to see the ‘friendship’ between Charles and Magneto. I would love to see Jean and Scott as just crushing on each other. I would love to see the initial appearance of mutants before they became a government problem. I would love this and pay to see it, as well as enjoy introducing my children to the less angsty, less blown-up, and less dead X-Men.

The original magic of the series came from them being misfit TEENAGERS anyways, so can we please recapture that and for a glorious 90 minuites or so, forget about the politics, the love triangles, and Jean’s multiple deaths?

Then again, if they do mess it up, Runaways is in development.

The genius of my earlier statement is: I already said what you just said. X3 was a “things go boom” movie with serious plot/character development issues. Problem is, Bryan Singer never made X1 and X2 “go boom” enough. The action scenes in both those films are WEAK. The story/character development parts are great, but the action. Weak.

And don’t even start up about the Wolverine/Deathstrike fight. It was ok but… it doesn’t hold up. It looks like a well-choreographed dance scene. At least Ratner got the action scenes right. Every fight sequence in X3 is far better than the other two films.

Booyakasha.

they never confirmed that cyclops died in the film, it never shows him die and jean isnt even sure if she killed him or not and it doesnt need to be 100% like the comics, its an ADAPTATION not an exact translation.

Then the first class would be Cyclops, Jean Grey, Storm, and Beast. Wait, is that it? Just four members? That case I would add one more, say Banshee or even Thunderbird. With Banshee they can compensate for Angel seeing that Banshee can fly plus the Moira connection. Thunderbird, they can have the final arc in this series where he dies, just like in the comics.

i thinking they should actually introduce the sentinels and not just one like in x3

Who could be in First Class other than Iceman and Angel:

- Either Emma Frost or Gambit- played by the actors from Wolverine.

- Jason (Stryker’s son), who in his prime, can cause severe hallucinations.

- Dragon Man. (like Juggernaut, adapted to be a mutant)

- Magneto Who would be on his way to split away from Xavier.

X3 Was A MOVIE, not a COMIC BOOK. It was it’s own take on the X-Men Universe and IT WASN’T THAT BAD. Nobody owed all of you complainers a Dark Phoenix Saga with Starjammers and an M’Kraan crystal. Would that have made you happy???

So they killed Cyclops WHO THE F EVER REALLY CARES ABOUT CYCLOPS??? NOBODY!!!! Do I want to see Cyclops get more screen time? NOT REALLY.

They should reboot the series, but only b/c X3 left nowhere for them to go except into the New X-Men continuum. Start young with First Class and then do a slow build throughout the X-Men lore to modern times.

Also a film version of the new X-Force (Wolverine’s Strike Team) would be a great film. You could do the whole Purifiers/”God Loves, Man Kills” storyline.

Speaking of which, why don’t you X3 haters ever complain that William Stryker was changed from the comics? Rev Stryker and the God Loves Man Kills Storyline were a classic X-Men Story just like the Phoenix Saga. But oh, X2 was so amazing so no complaints about that!

NEWS FLASH: X1 & X2 were good, but not great. The first two had good plot and dialogue and such, but the action scenes were WEAK. X3 had awesome action scenes, but the plot and dialogue needed work.

Bottom line: NOBODY HAS GOTTEN X-MEN 100% right yet. Maybe if Ratner and Singer teamed up we’d have an X-Men Movie that was truly great.

First Class all the way for me.

did you see the stinger at the end of x3 where xavier tranfers his mind into “the comatose guy”, and its never revealed that clyclops died i mean does it show him die, no its just implied meaning he could be alive and jean wasnt sure if she killed him
