So this 2011 summer I'm skipping X-men first class. What do you guys think?

I'll be first in line to see it. This movie is in continuity to the other X-Men movies. So having cyclops who was recruited post vietnam(XMO), Jean who was recruited in the 80s (via X3 flashback), Iceman who's like 18 in X3, and Angel who just met the X-Men in X3, would make absolutely zero sense.

It does have beast though, and that was alluded to in X3 anyway.

People are just getting too much in a huff that it's not 616 marvel, and it was never intended to be. This is the Singer and Fox X-Men universe. Not Marvel's.

As for the Emmas.

Emma frost is in XFC, Emma SilverFox was in XMO. Two different emmas. The one in XMO was Silverfox's sister who has diamond powers, this one isn't silver fox's sister and has telepathic powers. It's really just that simple.

This is not a reboot in any sense of the word. It's just a prequel, that may get a few more to build up to where X1 starts. Let it stand on it's own merit. Think of it as an AU story like the marvel ultimate universe is.

The only real continuity goof is if chuck gets paralyzed in this. (Instead it looks like it'll just end with him going bald, which will line up the others.) Otherwise, everything else can still line up since this takes place from 1942-1962 all of which is prior to XMO anyway.

If chuck and magneto split paths in this movie, then maybe that could be a goof, but it won't matter unless they stay enemies. Instead it looks like they both run the school, but they start diverging in ideologies for the purpose. The absolute fallout shouldn't happen until around Jean joins in the 80s. Though then again, they can also write that Magneto and Xavier were back on the same side at that point with another falling out due to happen. Something that's common with friends anyway.

Vaughn is directing, Singer is producing. Both are working closely though, so Singer can pick up the reigns when he can. Word is Singer is coming back for X4, but it looks like fox wants more XFC movies first. So if singer will do those or not, has yet to be seen. Everything he's said before has been that he wants to do X4 (aftermath of X3, which yes sucked, but did Bank quite well.)
