X-Men: First Class Trailer released

it looks WAAAAAY to modern for the proposed era, and I gotta admit, I don't always need to see the backstory fleshed out on beloved characters, but I sure hope it's decent. It's definitely showing some high production values.

At this point, anything is better than that last X-Men movie, or even Wolverine. That movie pissed me off so bad.
 
Looks too modern.

Doesn't look anything like the previous canon regarding Magneto and Xavier's backstories.

Also, shouldn't X-Men:First Class be the original X-men? (Jean Grey, Cyclops, Ice Man, Beast (without hair) and Angel?)

I thought they were already doing a Magneto Origins movie?
 
I agree. I can't stand his persona! Why must all his characters have the same smart alecky, smarmy like personas? And why is he getting so many Hero/Mutant roles? He's wearing out his welcome!

That's exactly what I'm talking about. He is just reprising his Van Wilder role for everything he's in. I mean to be fair, Deadpool was a pretty snarky smartass character too, but something got lost in the translation there entirely...no wonder Scarlett Johannson is divorcing him...one day she woke up an said "holy crap, I was in Lost in Translation, and I married the lead douche from Van Wilder! WTH was I thinking?"
