X-Men: First Class Trailer!

This just dropped at 6:00 Est. Be one of the first 1000 to watch this bad boy!



In a mad dash to beat other more powerful mutant media outlets to the punch, I didn’t get a chance to write my opinion until after this post went live. All I can say is WOW. I’m totally blown away by the style and atmosphere of this trailer. The fact that the trailer used footage from Brian Singer’s X-men, and didn’t completely throw out the previously established mythology has me elated. Were the X-men films perfect? Hell no, but what you can’t argue with is that prior to Singer’s X-men the “super hero” film genre was not taken seriously. I’m happy to see the use of traditional X-men colors, and love the fact that the X-men were somehow part of the Cuban Missile crisis. I cannot wait to see more!

NA BLACK DEATH

Summer of Netflix: Black Death (movies to watch when you’re sick)

When the bubonic plague hit in 1348 it was pretty bad time to be a Catholic. Monks and Nuns were infected just as much as the beggars and peasants, and the one man everyone looked to for guidance, the Pope, packed his bags and ran away to Babylon. Back then, most people believed that the Black Death was in fact one of God’s biblical plagues, and that God was very very pissed off. Acting out of desperation, men committed unspeakable acts in the name of God in order to shield themselves from his wrath. This is a story of those men.

NA THE PACT SUNDANCE

The Pact: An Interview with Nicholas McCarthy

I love independent film. A long time ago, in the time of dragons, I used to want to make movies myself. So when I see something special, I feel like it’s my job as a film nerd to plug the hell out of it. I’m elated excited to bring you an interview with Mr. Nicholas McCarthy who just recently returned from Sundance 2011 in support of his moody thriller “The Pact”. Growing up on horror films it takes a lot to make the hair on my arms stand up and having recently watched The Pact, I can say with total sincerity that Mr. McCarthy has the directing chops to scare the crap out of you.

  2. dtmexploded

    Looks really good. X-men 2 was my favorite so far. We’ll see…

  3. Ash

    I was really expecting something much much worse than this. The Beast transformation looks great!

  4. Nick

    oh wow. i would love it if they went with the first class based on the old first class of xmen, but this looks awesome.

  5. Pilx

    This looks bad ass. Count me in.

    Lookin’ good; Matthew Vaughn > Brett Ratner (Like that had to be said…)

    I have to be skeptical here. The film is still doing re-shoots, and is out in June. Red flag.
    I also think the characters are a little off. As an x-men fan of yore, I want to see the proper teams together… Not some new characters thrown in with each other just to draw people to watch the movie. I mean most people watch just to see wolverine. I for one will miss him in this movie.

    looks tight.

    Matthew Vaughn has yet to let me down so he was already getting the benefit of the doubt. This trailer has pushed the movie into must see territory. Thor, Cap, X-Men, Green Lantern, Super 8 and the last HP movie. Busy summer.
