New Russian X-MEN: FIRST CLASS Trailer seems appropriate giving the Cuban Missile Crisis storyline!
Hey folks, Harry here...
Dying to see Matthew Vaughn's X-MEN: FIRST CLASS - this is one of the big Summer films that I'm most in the dark about - having not read the script, nor really knowing the intimate details of the story, but I just have an immense amount of faith in Matthew Vaughn after the films he's delivered thus far. Watching Banshee's sonic scream in this trailer kind of fucking geeked me out. But at the same time, I'm wildly curious to see how this "Created" back story for the X-MEN plays out.
There's no doubting that I'm happy I learned fluent Russian after watching RED DAWN and knowing the Russians were coming the next day... well, it pays off on days like this. Of course I'm kidding, I only know the most basic of Russian, but it's kind of cool seeing this trailer in Russian given you actually see the old Hammer & Sickle red & yellow flag in the trailer.
I just don't quite have a feel for the film yet. This really needs to get screened soon - Here's the Russian trailer:

Russian X-MEN: FIRST CLASS trailer is pretty cool!
-
is it me or XMEN:FC seems that it will turn out to be the best of the upcoming comic-book movies?

"this is one of the big Summer films that I'm most in the dark about"... So Harry, you actually know what SUPER 8 is all about?
by TheKiller7
Because lets face it, what exactly is so mysterious about a film based on a comic book that has been in the public eyes for DECADES!
-
This thing is looking like a strong contender. Very strong. Tiger blood-strong.
-
...and I don't mean Zorro
-
Still wondering why Havok is in it and not Cyclops but that's fine I guess.
-
Who is that? My X-Men knowledge is weak. Who dat?

Missile Crisis was in 1962...
by HarryKnowlesNonExistentInceptionReview
...I'm no fashion expert, but from watching Mad Men, I'm pretty sure women weren't wearing miniskirts and go-go boots in 1962. I also don't see how Havok could be Cyclops' brother, father would be more like it with that age difference. Also Mystique is pushing 70 in our current day apparently and that's kind of "ewwwww!" (I won't even get into White Queen being a young woman in this and a teen in Wolverine.)
-
It's starting to take on the look of something that just might surprise and that can only be seen as a good thing. I look at Thor & Captain America and I feel like I know what I'm going to get from those two. They feel familiar after seeing two Iron Man films and The Incredible Hulk. That's both good and maybe a little bad. Neither one looks like it will be more than what I expect. Green Lantern doesn't look like it's going to be exceptional to me either. Not bad, probably good in fact, but just.... what I expect. This might be better than it has any right to be and that would be extremely cool. I'm looking forward to it.

If they do additional sequels after this, no more Magneto plz
by SilentP
I don't really mind it here, but after this one, seriously, it's enough with Magneto.

When's the proper trailer for CAPTAIN AMERICA coming out, anyway?
by CHRISTIAN_BALE_TRASHED_MY_LIGHTS
That tv trailer wasn't enough. I need moar. MOAR CAPTAIN AMERICA.
-
And I want James Earl Jones to do the voice for him.
-
but i hope there isnt too much back story/origin crap. why are all superhero movies 90% standing around, talking in civilian clothes and 10% superhero action.
-
This will fall into the category of "place my brain on pause" and enjoy every minute

The red guy is Azazel - Nightcrawler's dad.
-
And they're going with the kitty-cat look? So that'd make current day Beast an old guy, too? In Fox/Marvelverse does being a mutant mean you don't age?
-
....this, just thought I'd pass along the message that more nude photos of Vanessa Hudgens have surfaced...including one of her practically sitting on a camera while spreading her labia apart to give a good view of her pussy. Google it. <p> You're welcome.
-
That's Nightcrawler's dad. I had to look it up myself. He's from another dimension or some shit. Wasn't introduced in the comics till 2003.
-
but the images confused the hell out of me!
-
Maybe I will see this movie after all.
-
Everything good in that trailer involved Mags ... I firmly believe he is one of the greatest comic book characters ever created and maybe they should have moved forward with his solo mvie instead of X-Men OC.
-
is that it seems like this story is actually going to show why Magneto and Xavier are so fucking powerful. They both have the smarts to use their respective powers in very intelligent ways. Unlike say, Green Lantern, who far far too frequently just created a giant fist to bash people with. I'm looking forward to this more than GL.
-
that's got me interested to see the film. Good trailer, even in Russian. A fucking shit sight better than those teaser posters at any rate.
-
So the local commies can translate this for me.
-
To me, this movie is worth seeing for Fassbender's take on Magneto alone. I'm not sold on McAvoy doesn't quite have me sold, but Fassbender has a commanding presence on screen that seems extremely rare. The simple scene of him forcing the random guard's knife into himself is not one that many people could pull off, in my eyes. Also, to the poster that questioned the lack of action and frequent shots of the group standing around in their civvies...I'm very much okay with that, on multiple levels. How many trailers these days give away some of the best scenes of the movie? And more importantly, this movie's success will be based heavily on its story, not its action scenes. That being said, there will probably be 3 more trailers out before its release that will pander to the demographic and be chock full of action. On a side note - has anyone seen the trailer for Bad Teacher? I loathe Cameron Diaz but that shit looks like comedy gold.
-
If i'm remembering correctly, I think they just folded the Magneto origins solo film into the in-development First Class script to get what we are seeing here. I agree that Fassbender's Magneto is the real draw here, but I'd also like to see more Kevin Bacon as Sebastien Shaw in the advertising.
-
Does that mean they had a sex change?
-
Just don't go see this in an actual Russian movie theatre, lest you get taken hostage and the government accidentally gases you to death.
-
only here in america, i can't get this one to play at all :/
-
better.
-
Wasn't interested in this film before. But I am now!
-
But this is the website where Justin Bieber and baby rape talkbacks are number #1....so trust me on this....the number of Vanessa Hudgens hits on Google just spiked after I posted that here in talkbackland.
-
tried another browser and got the goodness though. Man, this could end up being the one true X-Men movie.
-
You're assuming those illegal immigrant sex workers and drug dealers understand English.
-
oh well, don't care all that much anyway
-
I'm sure the movie would be cool but timeline wise. i cannot ignore the fact that they ruined alot of progress from the xmen trilogy. I cannot ignore it! i can take the whole young mystique thing because in the comics she doesnt age easily. But beasts inclusion? c'mon. Havok too? C'mon. Y'all know what im talking about.
-
so yeah, your computer blows
-
This is either going to be really good or really whatever. I'm digging this whole retro angle. And Fassbinder as Magneto is awesome. I'm hoping it turns out like some weird, smart, off-kilter, popcorn-y cult movie.
-
You can add me to that search count!
-
Liked this one a lot.
-
In the concentration camp scene at the beginning, with young Magneto. As the prisoner pushing the wheelbarrow, that Magneto looks at and sees the number on the arm, to set up the call back later in the movie. I always like to think of myself as Magneto's motivation.
-
all the battle of hoth stuff in ESB, so that was a big thrill for me. I got to meet Singer as well during the lunch break, he talked to a bunch of the extras at length and was nice to everyone. He gave us a lot of info on the movie back then (it was the second scene shot, and before they had cast Hugh Jackman to replace Dougray scott). I submitted a scoop to AICN at the time, but they didn't run it.
-
McaGay and Fassy look like communist.
-
Should be in EVERY X-Men movie, even if he isn't the villain in the film. Point in fact, he is still Xavier's friend, even if he has a different political point of view. There's been many times Magneto has had to work with the X-Men out of necessity. He doesn't hate the X-Men, he just doesn't like them being in the way of his plans.
-
what sucks is my stolen internet. took more time to load the image/trailer than i gave it. everything else i download runs fine. it does work on firefox after all, but box was black for like a minute.
-
the only thing close is how Geronimo felt about Texans, y'all....
-
The way some people bitch about movies, you'd think it came into their house uninvited, crapped on the carpet , and impregnated their sister.
-
The russian trailer was pretty cool, even though I couldn't understand most of it.

In Soviet Russia, something does something different or something
by Inexplicable_Nuclear_Balls
I got nothin'.
-
It worked on Safari instantly for me, so yeah my Mac with a quad core processor and 8 Gigs of RAM that I make my living with as a graphic designer must be shit. There's no way that the culprit might possibly be an open source web browser. This site is just like all you haters, stuffed with dicks.
-
I didnt really care before, but looking forward to him as Magneto, also Vaughn knows what he is doing. I have a feeling this will be a solid 3.5 out of 5 movie, with Cap, Thor and GL they could be anywhere from 2 to 4 stars, Cap is the one that worries me most
-
Who uses a computer anymore?
-
What is going on there? Prof X and Magneto are in bed next to each other watching a fairy strip? Am I seeing that wrong?
-
Of the story. It's a total surprise to me that I'm now interested in this flick. There's enough good actors in this for it to be worthwhile.
-
... they didn't call it the swinging sixties for nothin' ; )
-
I'm sure I'll see it eventually, unless it turns out to REALLY suck. Though I do like the casting...I became a Michael Fassbender fan after Inglorious Basterds, and James McAvoy is always talented (he was the best thing about WANTED next to Freeman).
-
Good trailers have deceived me before. But then again, maybe we can trust the actors to have chosen a food film?
-

I'm still pissed about the timeline but That shit has got me smiling from ear to ear!!!!!
by The Founder
Holy shity that looks well done. I assume this is probably going to be the be the next trailer for the US. Vaughan may make me eat my words. God I'm such a push over
-
No that was a surprise.

Fassbender looks great ad Mags. I can't get a bead on McAvoy as the Prof yet.
by The Founder
They aren't showing much of Charles and certainly nothing of him using his powers.
-
Just kidding This might be the surprise of the summer but they really should start marketing this thing now.
-
I didn't know the Cuban Missile Crisis was part of the story (been avoiding spoilers, thanks Harry ;) ). I think that extra level of historical realism might give this film a more interesting backdrop. I kinda wish this was a full reboot, as I don't really want lots of references and setups for the future films to get in the way of the real story (e.g. the Death Star plans in AOTC).
-
Hope they got his accent right. Hair looks a bit dark and...hate to say it, but Bacon makes a skinny Shaw. Not buying it!
-
I'm not sure about the rest of the cast (or even the characters), but Fassbender looks awesome as Magneto. This is the best trailer so far.
-
and somehow the Russian made it cooler. This revs me up for the movie, but I'm uneasy about this X-Men "universe". Wish it were more in tune with the books.
-
GIVEN, you asshat
-
Even if this movie is outstanding, which I doubt it will be (though the trailer is well done and makes me want to care), it leads into garbage. X-Men 1 is a complete waste, with moments of decent. Part 2 is a complete waste with moments of decent. Part 3 is a fucking scalding cup of shit. So at this point, I can't honestly care. It's not the First Class, and yeah, that's nitpicking, but it's revisionist bullshit. Though they ruined Cyclops and Jean anyways so have at it. Why not add The Punisher to the team and The Green Goblin? If Galactus can be a Cloud, add the Sentinels and make them giant tables. It's also from Fox, so supporting this film is akin to helping cancer.

Is the whole movie going to be in that crazy mirror language?
by rev_skarekroe
Why do they have to be all artsy? Make the damn movie IN ENGLISH SO WE CAN UNDERSTAND IT YOU MORONS!!!!
-
seems IMDB has a bit in the trivia section for this that Apocalypse is leading the hellfire club in the movie. Not sure if we get an actual character or just a name drop, but still would be all sorts of wrong if true. of course it is IMDB, so it could just as easily say Rainbow Brite is the leader of the hellfire club.

Why do some countries dub their movies, while others...
by Royston Lodge
...prefer to use subtitles? Dubbing a foreign-language film seems really odd to me.
-
Thanks for the laugh. I needed that today.
-
...Inglorious basterds? Not that I have anything against the guy, he was really good in that movie, but it seems like all of a sudden everyone's talking about him. "Fassbender sold me on First class", "I wasn't sure about Prometheus, but now that Fassbender has been cast, I feel more optimistic.." I'm seeing a lot of that lately. I looked him up on imdb, other thant Inglorious Basterds, nothing really stands out. Again, the guy seems like a cool new actor, and his handfull of scenes in IB were good, I'm just surprised by the overwelming confidence he seems to inspire in people based on one movie, that he was only in about 20minutes of.

Monkey_King he won't have the accent but the hair color is right.
by The Founder
Although I've not confirmed it but others say that in an interview with the actor playing Banshee he said he won't have the accent. Doesn't mean he's still not Irish though. I saw the kid playing Banshee in another film, he's an actual red head.
-

Kevin Bacon is in this... good enough reason to see it if you ask me.
by ChickenStu
Kevin Bacon looks like he's gonna be awesome in this movie.
-
Otherwise, color me meh. Good trailer though. Couldn't understand a word they were saying. Oh well.
-
He won me over with his performance in Centurion. Not a spectacular movie by any means, simply gritty, solid entertainment, but the guy just has a commanding presence on screen throughout. It's all about the intangible charisma.

BIGGEST MISTAKE EVER - calling this movie First Class
by fat_rancor_keeper
Since they obviously wanted to go for something different why the hell did they stick on a title that is synonymous with the original core XMen????????? Most of the crap that gets shoveled on this movie is related to people complaining about the different characters and how this isnt like the First Class comics. If they had simply called this X-Men: The Beginning (which is really what it is) or some bullshit like that then so much of the backlash couldve been avoided.

And AICN is posting a trailer in Russian because.....?
by Arkhaminmate001
-
Watch HUNGER. Then you will know why this guy is the real deal. He and Tom Hardy are the next male Hollywood superstars. They are great actors and posses that leading-man quality. Mark my words.
-
There I said it.
-
Thanks for the heads up, I've never even heard of either of these movies. And I'm not in anyway doubting about Fassbender, like I said, he definitely seems like he has a lot of potential, and I've been given no reason to think otherwise, I was just a bit suprised how much cred he seems to have earned, without having done very much yet, but didn't know about these 2 films so that makes a bit more sense. I agree about Hardy also. Until Inception, I only knew him as the badguy from star trek:nemesis, which was awful, but I remember even when I read an interview with the ST cast bashing the movie, they all said the only good thing in the entire movie was that they got to work work Tom Hardy, and they all thought he would be the next big thing.
-
I can only assume this is not the deceased actor Steve McQueen... Maybe next there will be a director named Paul Newman, or Bruce Willis, to make everything more confusing. But all joking aside, I was assuming from the title Hunger would be some type of vampire or zombie direct to video movie, but I do really like IRA related stuff, so I will have to check this out. All the better if there are hot Irish girls in it. I could listen to them read the phone book, as long as they do it with that accent...
-
even though it's set in the 60s it seems to have visual continuity with the other X films. i really don't know jack shit about design but to my eye it retains the 'look' of the previous films. kind of similar to how zack snyder's films almost seem to have the same kind of (charlie) sheen and color palette. yes?
-
It is a Russian trailer, and thanks to Clint Eastwood they don't have firefox anymore. BTW, looks very promising...When you add up the pluses vs. the minuses, it warrants excitement
-
That joke was worth coming back to this thread for.
-
The x men movies suck, this one looks to be no better. I'll pass.
-
Wierd. The more I see, the more I like it. Period stuff seems to be a great fit with superheroes. I hope for more of these.

I liked Xmen1, especially considering at that point there hadn't...
by Rebel Scumb
...really been any good superhero movies made. I think X2 is one of the best sequels ever made, that movie hits all the notes really well, who cares if its not accurate to the comicbook continuity, its a movie, it has its own continuity it can play within. The 3rd one was definitely not as good as the others, but no where near as awful as people make it out to be, and still had some good moments. The wolverine spinoff was pretty bad, but to be fair, no worse than a lot of the actual X-men comics I've read over the years. I think this looks like it could be a really good installment, might even be up there with X2 I'm still hiping though they start moving the franchise forward and do an X4 instead of just prequels.
-
. . . and I've been coming down on this thing hard. I still can't stand which muties they picked for this, but looking back at the first films, I guess it's never been perfect. Guess I figured Vaughn would have insisted on the REAL first team, since it's kind of a fresh start here. And it's weird that just last night I first saw that ginger in the The Last Exorcism and today I see him playing Banshee.

WOW AND ALL THE SAME EXACT IMAGERY AND CHARACTERS!!! COOL THERE'S A SCENE WHERE HE HOLDS HIS HAND UP AND STOPS A BUNCH OF FUCKING CRAP FLYING AT HIM?!!!?? FUCKING AWESOME!!!! WOW!!!!!!!!!!!

Obviously your ability to comprehend anything beyond a 2nd grade reading level is what "sucks ass." As I stated, the video opened right up in Safari, Apple's proprietary browser. But you probably don't know what proprietary means, or open source for that matter, so let me put it into terms you can relate to: You are a moron.
