[QUOTE="einjeL, post: 3441267, member: 875480"] Comic book film fans found 2006's "X-Men: The Last Stand" to be less than satisfying. But this Friday, prequel/reboot [URL="http://www.newsytype.com/6971-xmen-first-class/"]X-Men: First Class[/URL] plans to do some major changes. A brand-new director, brand-new cast and going back in time approach to the story should make "First Class" a success. [B]'First Class' prepared to go[/B] There was the idea of a co-existence of humans and x-gene characters prior to the difficulties with Magneto, the United States government and Professor Charles Xavior. Michael Fassbender plays young Magneto Erik Lehnsherr and James McAvoy players young Charles Xavior. Together they start a school to teach mutants how to safely use their abilities. Eventually, an ideological rift forms between the two friends, as Xavier takes the side of peaceful co-existence among "normals" for mutants, while soon-to-be Magneto adheres to a hard-line, Social Darwinist stance favoring mutant species over regular hominids, as "homo superioris."
