I can see why you'd have trouble making sense of pretty much anything in the world...

So I guess even though this is a prequel, Emma Frost from the Wolverine movie has been retconned?! Because this sure seems to be a different character.

Those are clearly the same people in the costumed pic released yesterday.

I think Fox tried to say that wasn't Emma, just some mutant who could turn into diamond.

The fact that they'd even want to keep the continuity of the Wolverine movie blows my mind. The rest of the movies I can give a pass, but Origins....man.

But in the Wolvie flick didn't she say "Stryker has my sister, Emma."??

I hope hope hope this is a reboot, because if it's supposed to take place after the Wolvie movie it's going to fail. They showed Prof X in the Wolvie movie, alsoMystique as an Xman? *shrugs

Contrary to what some other posters may have stated, it is most definitely a prequel. Matthew Vaughn and Bryan Singer have stated as such numerous times in interviews. It takes place in the 1960's, before X-Men Origins: Wolverine.

Oh, and Mystique being an X-Man is nothing new. She had an entire ongoing series where she was a covert agent for Xavier. And it was excellent.

The reboot is the Wolverine movie. They were going to make a sequel to Origins but scrapped it once Darren Aronofsky hopped on board.

This probably should be a reboot, hell they're rebooting Spider-man and it's newer then X-men, but it doesn't have to be. As long as they keep the continuity going properly. I'm not a huge fan of the series though so they can do whatever they want.

I thought two thirds of the X-Men trilogy were horrible (X2 was good) so I would have prefered a reboot. I also hated Kick-Ass but nevertheless this film seems really interesting so far.

the helmet and the x-uniform do not mesh well together, at least have the colors matching. Or not have the helmet until the very end when he dons the Magneto persona

Xavier looks like he raided my student teaching clothes (aside from the hobo gloves).

I'm gonna really wait to comment on this for a bit, but...

Is it just me, or does January Jones look too... Nice to be Emma? Yes, yes, there's only so much we can do with actual human actors (hehe), but it's just the overall feeling I get from her on first glance.

I hope she rocks it, though. I adore Emma. (Which is why I'm soooo happy they are actually having EMMA and it's not that little girl from the Wolverine movie. I almost blew a gasket at that.)

I wonder if they're going to force a British accent on Emma. It bugs me when they do that. She's not British. I mean, she's of English descent, but so am I. Her family moved to what's now the US in the 1600's.

I was thinking she affected the accent on purpose, but I could be wrong.
