I Think It Is Safe To Say That I Will Enjoy This Film

[andraste]

X-Men: First Class trailer here.

You know what's weird? (Apart from the fact that they apparently couldn't find a razor for James McAvoy. SO VERY WRONG. This will not make it any easier for me to get past his failure to be Patrick Stewart.)

In the late nineties when I got online, there was no Xavier/Magneto fic on the entire internet. I know, because I looked really, really hard. Now I watch this trailer and I see a juggernaut of a pairing that is about to crash down on fandom. I wish I had a time machine and could go tell my seventeen-year-old self that some day she would get all the pr0n she could read *g*.

Also: finally, I can make the vid that's been in my head since 2001, that absolutely required flashbacks! Even if it means mixing universes and in the flashbacks Charles has hair. WTF.

I wrote a Xavier/Magneto fic in 1996! It wasn't very good, but I did! And yes, I'm very excited about this trailer.

*sigh* I will probably be going to see this movie, won't I?

EEEEEE! It's going to be hard for me to hate this film, based on this trailer. Even if the plot is crap.

Eee, my ship! *makes happy squeeful noises* I can't wait for me Xavier/Magneto fic to deluge the internet.

I'm really looking forward to the movie.

Thanks for posting. This is the first movie trailer I've seen in a long time that makes me excited for an upcoming movie!

It really does look stupidly spiffy. I admit when they announced the casting there might have been a bit of an eyebrow raise but seeing them all in motion has sold me!

I spotted the trailer /just/ before I spotted your post. I am SO. TOTALLY. THERE.

I may be a little mroe excited about the "X-Men during the Cold War" thing than the "Xavier/Magneto thing though... I guess there's no accounting for taste! :P

I am a very happy just woken up fanperson right now. Resembling season 1 of Heroes Hiro, to be precise. :)

DUDE. ALL THIS. I remmeber finding the Magneto mailing list and getting all excited and then sad cause Not Nearly Enough Fic.

[hammerxsword]

Shallow as I am, I think I'd be there just for McAvoy and Fassbender making eyes at each other. Helps that it looks awesome too!

That trailer is amazing. So excited.

(I have already seen, elsewhere on the flist today, people going, huh, I never ficced Charles and Erik but now I want to.)

OMFGDOWANT!~ What do you mean I have to wait till June?! T_T

Okay, so it's not going to have most of my favourites, but did you see Beast? Beast transforming confirm/deny? Emma! Mystique! Internal consistency with its own timeline?! (overly optimistic, I know) Magneto in yellow spandex (kevlar?)!!! Xavier with hair! (I wonder if he'll lose it by the end credits?)

This is going to be sooo much better than Wolverine Origins. *glees*
