I haven't seen it myself yet because my computer is all screwy.
Thoughts?

Yeah, it did not look bad to me. It's set in the 60s, so it includes altering historical events with Mutant involvement the way Wolverine did with Three Mile Island. And some of the effects don't look too bad. I'm still wary of some of the continuity issues (Havok on the team before Scott, Emma, etc) but those are things you kind of just have to suck up at times with comic movies.
I'm still not getting James McAvory as Xavier though. Is it just me?

It's not, he doesn't seem right.Tragic Angelus wrote:Yeah, it did not look bad to me.

I'm okay with the continuity, for what they wanted to do it works. They're never going to make enough movies to really go through all the characters so if they want to switch up the time frame, go for it.

I thought the trailer was really good. I don't have a problem with James McAvory as Xavier. Yeah Xavier looks sympathetic now I imagine in his youth he was intense and eager to change the world. Like all young people I suppose.
My only problem with the GL trailer is the costume itself...Which may be all the important parts of the film. But I feel Ryan Reynolds is just a good comedic actor as he is dramatic actor or in an action role. I think he'll balance it out pretty well. But again, the main problem with the GL film is the costume. GL has great CGI & actors.
