So I just got back from seeing x-men first class tonight and it was amazing!! The best thing to me is it felt like it tied in much of the x-men pre-stories with Xavier and magneto. nice hidden cameos throughout the movie BTW. Unlike previous marvel movies (exception with upcoming captain America) this was a great period piece set in the 1960's. The guy they had to play Xavier (Prof X) was spot on! Magneto in this one was exactly how i imagined him. though a lot of the characters in this end up of course older versions of there previous incarnations and a few oddities like Emma frost will be an old hag by the time x-men 1 starts (not to mention in wolverine spin-off she was a child).
