X-Men: First Class (2011)

IMDb: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1270798/

~ Long before Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr became known as Professor X and Magneto, they were just two young men learning to control their abilities. Before becoming bitter rivals, they were best friends, teaming up with various Mutants—both old faces and newcomers—to face down a global catastrophe. However, this struggle eventually drove a wedge between them, sparking the endless conflict between Magneto's Brotherhood and Professor X's X-MEN. ~

This looks pretty bad to me, especially since Hugh isn't even in it (I didn't realize that until I saw the trailer, so feel free to delete this thread)... it just doesn't make sense. 🤷

Wolverine wasn't even around during the timeline where the story actually takes place. This is the era of X-Men: First Class, if you catch my drift.

Looks like we’ve got a new thread 🙂

Have you actually sat down and watched "The Wolverine"? 🙄

BTW, there's already a thread for this.

We should probably move the trailer link over to the other thread. That said, the trailer itself is great. The visual effects look solid; I just hope the story holds up as well. Honestly, we don't need Hugh Jackman showing up in every single X-Men film.

he was there

Feel free to delete this thread; I searched through a few sections and couldn't find it anywhere. 😉
PS: I actually got two movies mixed up... my dad was telling me about a new X-Men film where they say Wolverine is going to be even stronger and better than before... anyway, that one comes out in a different year... maybe 2012??
As for this one, it might still be good, and it doesn't really matter that Hugh isn't in it, but the trailer looks a little underwhelming to me.

Oops, my bad... I totally mixed up two different movies. My dad was telling me about this new X-Men film where he said Wolverine is going to be even more intense and powerful than before... but anyway, that one doesn't actually come out until a different year. Maybe 2012??
What about this one? Honestly, it might actually be decent, and I don't even care that Hugh isn't in it. But man, looking at the trailer, it just doesn't look all that great to me.

The Wolverine (2012) 🙂
So, this should probably be a follow-up to X-Men Origins: Wolverine, which hit theaters back in 2009.

Even though Wolverine is one of those guys where you can't really pin down his actual age because of his whole healing factor thing, he was still basically just finding himself during that era. It’s like he was totally out of his element, probably having no clue there were even other people out there like him.
So, we’re basically talking about the early days of the X-Men here—back before W-a even existed, when everyone was still just a student trying to figure things out.

W-a is actually way older than both Professor X and Magneto.

Oh, man! I definitely have to check this out—especially since James McAvoy is playing Xavier 😍
mmm... I'm actually pretty stoked to see it 😛

It used to be that Hugh was the main reason the girls were tuning in, but now it's all about James 🤣

If there's no Wolverine or Jean-Luc Picard involved... I'm definitely sitting this one out 😬

Honestly, it's a total win-win situation, haha. Plus, if they actually manage to maintain the quality we've seen in the previous films—well, then we're looking at something even better. 🙂

Man, I am seriously counting down the days for this one! And can we just talk about how gorgeous, adorable, and honestly just incredibly hot Jennifer Lawrence is? Like, she’s way too young for my tastes sometimes, but wow... 🤣 I’ve been such a huge fan ever since her killer performance in Captain America: The First Avenger... though let's be real, it isn't just about the acting (she has an absolutely insane body), right? 😉
