geebsSo by now, you've seen the new trailer for X-Men: First Class:
Because I am a huge nerd, I paused during the scene where the "First Class" is sitting in the mansion listening to JFK's Cuban missile crisis speech, to determine who the frak they considered the first class by cross-referencing things with imdb. I mean, obviously F. Assbender, Mr Tumnus, and Rose Byrne, are young Magneto, young Prof. X, and young Moira Mctaggart, respectively. But I was trying to figure out who the rest of them were. So they're claiming the "first class" was Havok (they turned him into Cyclops older brother instead of his younger one?), Bill Engval's fake hot daughter (I'd make a Winter's Bone joke here, but I'm not clever to come up with something beyond something having to do with boning her in the winter) as Mystique, Beast, and Banshee?!
More trailer analysis: We also see Emma Frost in some sort of cell. Also, chick Angel played by Lenny Kravitz's daughter (so Angel went from a blond white guy to a black chick?!). Though I'm confused if she's also the person with the fly-like wings. I mean, if she was called Angel, I would think she would have feathery wings. Or s Pixie also in this? There's Darwin (played by the black vampire dude from the Twilight movie) driving a cab. Nekkid Mystique under the covers giving someone a come hither look, Possibly Azazel, since we see him teleporting around and fighting peeps in the trailer, so perhaps that scene is when they conceive Nightcrawler?
Also, we see the Blackbird actually look like a SR-71 Blackbird (as the X-jet has always been based on it). I guess the earlier model wasn't all that different from the normal SR-71? Beast showing off his agility, as lets not forget he wasn't blue and furry until much later in the series. Not that we don't see his transformation into that in the trailer. Only they seem to be jumping ahead to his "cat-like" look that Sage jumpstarted him into, rather than his traditional blue furry look. Looks like Mystique is all smitten with him though, so maybe its him in the bedroom scene I just mentioned. Ooh, maybe they'll do something where they think baby Nightcrawler is their's, since she's blue and he's furry? But its really Azazel who knocked her up.
Looks like the Hellfire club is in it also, what with Emma showing off her diamond form (though she didn't get that mutation until way later, but the movies seem to be more of a fan of that power of hers than her telepathy, but I guess they don't want people having similar powers and Charles is telepath guy already?), and Kevin Bacon as Sebastian Shaw.
Owel, are they claiming the X-men solved the Cuban missile crisis?
