The trailer for the latest movie from Matthew Vaughn (Layer Cake, Stardust, Kick-Ass) is now out. Soooo awesome! As someone who was never a big fan of the other X Men movies, I cannot express how ridiculously excited I am by this. (I didn't understand the level of criticism for X Men 3 because I wasn't terribly wowed by either of the previous two.)
A Guardian article has said that this trailer is no "Batman Begins". Yeah well, that's because it's a trailer. The "Batman Begins" trailer was no "Batman Begins" either.
With Jennifer Lawrence from "Winter's Bone" as Mystique and Michael Fassbender from "Inglourious Basterds" as Magneto (with the ever awesome Bill Milner from "Son of Rambow" playing him as a child), this is shaping to be some rather awesome pick n' mix casting.
