As I post this, this is the first time I’ve actually seen what the new X-Men movie will be like. X-Men: First Class is basically about Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr, how their friendship eventually leads to their rivalry as Professor X and Magneto. I don’t really know what my feeling are yet about the movie, but it does look pretty interesting. The trailer itself has almost a “Watchmen” type feel to it.

Description

X-MEN FIRST CLASS charts the epic beginning of the X-Men saga, and reveals a secret history of famous global events. Before mutants had revealed themselves to the world, and before Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Not archenemies, they were instead at first the closest of friends, working together with other Mutants (some familiar, some new), to prevent nuclear Armageddon. In the process, a grave rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto’s Brotherhood and Professor X’s X-Men.
