(Click for full size)
With the opening now less than a month away, X-Men: First Class just released a couple of new posters, and it looks like whoever’s recovering heroin-
addict nephew they gave this job to hasn’t been fired yet (GRRR, LENS FLARES! POPOUTS! BLURRY BACKGROUNDS! PHOTOSHOP FILTER!). They also released three new character trailers, which thankfully look a lot better than the posters, which is good because I wasn’t looking forward to watching this with my head cocked sideways like a perplexed puppy the whole time (though I’m sure that’d be adorable).
The trailers are for The Banshee (Caleb Landry Jones from Friday Night Lights), Havok (Lucas Til), and Beast (Nicholas Hoult — the kid from About a Boy). They all seem to be various types of puberty metaphors. Banshee can fly by screaming and making his voice crack, Havok can kill people with his violent hip thrusting (THAT’S MY MOVE!), and when Beast meets a woman, his palms sprout hair and his balls turn blue. And if that weren’t bad enough, he’ll eventually grow up to be Kelsey Grammer. In any case, it’s nice to see they focused on these guys and not the lesser-known mutants, like the guy who can morph into a turkey sandwich but not back again, or the one who can see through walls, but only while standing in a puddle of his own urine.

When you say “Click for full size” you mean January Jones’ tits right? Because I already tried it and I assure you it does not effing work.
The mutant with the premature ejaculation puberty metaphor hits a little too close to home for me :(
Holy shit, Tony Stonem is the beast.
Please tell me that Kevin Bacon’s superpower is the ability to read the thoughts of others (nay, acutely feel them) when he’s pawing away at a transvestite.
*so alone*
I’m wondering if they blew their marketing budget on miniskirts and fuck-me boots for the wardrobe department.
Hehe, VaLince said “Click.”
Kevin Bacon’s playing Sebastian Shaw who, according to IMDB:
“possesses the ability to absorb kinetic energy and transform it into raw strength.”
As compared to his ability that makes every second he’s on screen feel like an eternity. He’s like a mutant personification of C-Span.
If all these mutant chicks have low self-esteem because of their powers wouldn’t they be constantly flashing their tits and giving handies in the bathroom?
January Jones is probably the only person who could fuck a nerd, or give him any sort of attention, and be so clearly frigid and detached about it that the guy wouldn’t become a Capt. Save-a-ho and confuse it for anything more than a fuck afterwards.
This movie would be more appealing(and deeper, brah) if all these hawt ass students were upset over Kluga Kardashian being accepted into the school to fulfill a diversity quota.
