This is ‘X-Men: First Class’ Official Plot Synopsis

Here's it is:

X-Men: First Class charts the epic beginning of the X-Men saga, and reveals a secret history of famous global events. Before mutants had revealed themselves to the world, and before Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Not archenemies, they were instead at first the closest of friends, working together with other Mutants (some familiar, some new), to stop Armageddon. In the process, a grave rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto’s Brotherhood and Professor X’s X-Men.

So, they are totally remixing the X-Men history. Adding in half of the original five, bringing in Armageddon (son of Jean Grey's cells and Apocalypse), the Hellfire Club?, Mystique, no Gabrielle Haller and Nighcrawler's demon daddy?

This sounds like an overstuffed X-Men Annual.

I'm sorry writers; but if you wanted to tell a new story, you should wrote a brand new story. Meaning, something without 40 plus years of comic book history. By making a mess stew of the X-Men, fans will never trust you again. I mean, X3 made money, but it stabbed us in the heart and Wolverine, honey, that was like salt poured in my freshly pulled out eyes.

The plot synopsis sounds a bit off. This is not the X-Men history we know. And why is this called X-Men First Class, when this isn't about the original first class or any stories closely to the history? Seriously Fox, this is a Hot Ass Mess!!

Disney, please pay attention to this, because this will the best time to take back the series. It's yours!

I bet they are thinking, "it's our toys, why are the dirty poor kids, from next door playing with them?"

I need to read this script, because the only Armageddon I see, is this movie.

New Movie: Monsters

The plot is this: six years ago, a NASA probe landed back in the New Mexico desert containing samples of alien life - which promptly grew, proliferated and turned the southern US and north of Mexico into an alien-occupied zone. Now, a US journalist agrees to escort an American tourist back through the no-man's land to safety.

Here's a clip

Bring It On Turns 10

Wow! Bring it On is 10 years old!

I love this movie! If you seen it, was there a favorite moment or scene in this silly, but cute classic?

Are you Ready for WICKED the Movie?

Click your heels three times and get ready for Wicked the movie:

The smash hit stage musical Wicked is taking its first formative steps toward the movie screen. I'm told the musical's producer Marc Platt, book writer Winnie Holzman, and songwriter Stephen Schwartz have begun meeting with filmmakers.

Insiders confirm that JJ Abrams, James Mangold, Ryan Murphy, and Rob Marshall are among the directors who've met or otherwise thrown their hat in the ring. More meetings will take place when the musical's authors come to town in the fall. The film will be made at Universal, which produced the stage musical with Platt.

There's a lot of 'Oz' stuff coming out in the next few years. If we are getting all this crazy stuff, we better get a remake of The Wiz. (I love this trailer, btw)

Who Asked for This?: Speedy Gonzales the Movie

When I read this, I almost through my MacBook out the window.

Look out, peeps. Speedy Gonzales is coming.

Speedy Gonzales is taking his folk hero status, incredible speed and signature red kerchief to the big screen, courtesy of New Line. "Garfield" scribes Alec Sokolow and Joel Cohen will adapt the classic animated Looney Tunes character into a live-action/CG hybrid feature, with George Lopez attached to voice Speedy.

Lopez, Ann Lopez and Lynnette Ramirez are producing for George Lopez Presents, along with "Ocean's Eleven" producer Jerry Weintraub, Tracy Ryerson and Jill Arthur. New Line execs Michele Weiss and Sam Brown are shepherding for the studio.

But that not it, see this:

the character has often courted criticism that the ethnic characterizations of him and his compatriots (especially lazy cousin Slowpoke Rodriguez) are stereotypically racist and severely outdated.

Aware of this, New Line and the producers plan to update the brand with a modernized sensibility (it takes place in present day) under what Ann Lopez calls George's "Latino seal of approval." (No need to throw fuel on the fire that serves as an immigration debate in this country.)

"We wanted to make sure that it was not the Speedy of the 1950s -- the racist Speedy," Ann Lopez said with a chuckle. "Speedy's going to be a misunderstood boy who comes from a family that works in a very meticulous setting, and he's a little too fast for what they do. He makes a mess of that. So he has to go out in the world to find what he's good at."

"Latino seal of approval", interesting. Well, I curious to see how this movie plans out.

Who Asked for This?: Taylor Lautner as Stretch Armstrong

Suffering Sappho! The world's overrated heartthrob has scored a new movie... Stretch Armstrong.

Universal Pictures has announced the "The Twilight Saga" star Taylor Lautner will will play the title character in Stretch Armstrong, which will be made in 3D, while the studio has moved back Battleship to Memorial Day Weekend in 2012:

Universal Pictures announced breaking news about two of its upcoming event films based on popular Hasbro brands, Stretch Armstrong and Battleship.

The announcements were made today by Universal Pictures Chairman Adam Fogelson and Co-Chairman Donna Langley. Taylor Lautner (the Twilight saga) will play the title character in the upcoming 3-D superhero adventure Stretch Armstrong, to be released in 2012.

Boo! Why are they making this? Of course little girls and gay men will see this... wait, that's a dangerous combo, anywho they will see this mess, but why on Earth is this flick being made?

Thanks to NG for the heads up.

Spidey 4 is Delayed

Some news on the new Spider-Man movie

Sony Pictures decided to delay the superhero sequel, starring Tobey Maguire (pictured) and directed by Sam Raimi, according to Variety. "We'll try, but I think making May is a real question," an unnamed source at Sony said. "We will not start until we have it right. The feeling is we are not going to rush it to make the date."

The decision means fourth film in the series likely will not meet its announced May 6, 2011 release date.

In October, Raimi indicated that the franchise would be taking a more mature direction. "I've been talking with Tobey about where his character might grow to in this installment," Raimi said. "[Parker] started as a little bit of a selfish, naive and insecure high school kid ... In the second picture, [he] wrestled with his personal fulfillment versus that responsibility and, in the third film, I think it was a little bit about his growing hubris."

Maybe this is for the best, I'm still washing Spider-Man 3 out of my mouth. So, I agree with Sam on this. Keep it tight, until you get it right.

Avatar makes a billion buckaroos, but I still don't want to see it.

Well, James Cameron is the King of the world and has pimp slapped Michael Bay off his soapbox. Avatar has made a billion bucks world wide.

Twentieth Century Fox and James Cameron's "Avatar" rang in the New Year with an estimated worldwide cume of $1 billion through Sunday, becoming the fourth highest grosser of all time.

Domestic cume was $352.1 million, including a weekend take of $68.3 million, the best gross ever for a film in its third weekend.

Overseas, the pic's cume through Sunday was $670.2 million.

I am happy about this because it's not a remake, an 80's toy fetish or a book series. So maybe companies will be open to NEW ideas.

However, I'm not so sure I want to watch the Attack of the Cat People for 3 hours.

Interesting Quote: Akiva Goldsman

"What got lost in 'Batman & Robin' is the emotions aren't real. The worst thing to do with a serious comic book is to make it a cartoon. I'm still answering for that movie with some people."

Akiva Goldsman finally admitting 'Batman & Robin' or Bat Nipples was a hot ass mess.
