The only reason I'm seeing this movie.

Pasto - 2/13/2014, 12:21 PM

Dah, it's alright.

Viltrumite - 2/13/2014, 12:21 PM

I really think they nailed Magneto's look in this movie. Can't wait. Hopefully we get a new trailer soon.

Invictor - 2/13/2014, 12:23 PM

This suit looks cool and his powers are indeed unparalleled.

Kurne - 2/13/2014, 12:24 PM

Jeezus Rice Fassbender is taking over McKellen's role.

Smart move with that alternate timeline thing. Milk Fassbender and Lawrence in one, Jackman in the other.

DefcoN - 2/13/2014, 12:25 PM

After seeing him in First Class and more recently in 12 Years a Slave, I have to admit that Fassbender is not only an excellent actor, he's also magnificent in a villain's role.

Fab-u-lous

ralfinader - 2/13/2014, 12:31 PM

This guy. Great actor, and the only good thing to come out of First Class.

gambgel - 2/13/2014, 12:33 PM

Impressive pic and costume.
Wish all the X-Men had costumes like this, with the iconic colour of each mutant

More than likely in next movie, tho

TheRationalNerd - 2/13/2014, 12:35 PM

Saving the best trailer for last!

TheRationalNerd - 2/13/2014, 12:35 PM

@Nomis

"Plastic Bullets" I believe they discussed it very briefly in the Empire Magazine.

Spidey10 - 2/13/2014, 12:36 PM

@Nomis that's a good point and where the hell is the trailer at

TheRationalNerd - 2/13/2014, 12:38 PM

Plus I also read in the empire magazine special that mutants are not only getting killed off in the future but I believe some of the characters from first class film have been killed off as well. I'm surprised no one made an article about that here on CBM? Might have to go back and read it but I could've sworn that's what it said.

Spidey10 - 2/13/2014, 12:38 PM

that's actually pretty cool...the 2 bright spots for these films is right there

MrAisA - 2/13/2014, 12:39 PM

I wonder how much chess will be in this movie.

Spidey10 - 2/13/2014, 12:42 PM

damn that was cool too

CherryBomb - 2/13/2014, 12:43 PM

He's so goddamn sexy.

TheRationalNerd - 2/13/2014, 12:43 PM

I think we'll get the trailer a week after Guardians. When first class came out we didn't get a trailer until what late February or early March?

Spidey10 - 2/13/2014, 12:44 PM

quick question...in first class were they alluding to the fact that Xavier unlocked Magnetos potential??? I always wondered that..he always had the power but was that what that was???

Spidey10 - 2/13/2014, 12:45 PM

If so the irony is hilarious that Xavier created Magneto in a sense

ExAmaxis - 2/13/2014, 12:47 PM

Looking at this picture, i think it's one of those times when you 're actually looking at the actor, not at the character. And it's something that bothers me a little since Marvel Studios themselves do that as well (helmet-less thor, captain america, iron man...). Well of course this has to do with the fact that blockbuster comic book movies like this, will always seem to hire big star names. But now that i think about it a little bit more, i guess this didn't actually happen when i saw Henry Cavill as Superman. In fact, i saw more of Superman than of Henry, whereas every time i see Iron Man, i see more of Robert Downey Jr.
Anyway, Magneto's suit is well-crafted indeed, but they could do better.

Ineedrevelation - 2/13/2014, 12:48 PM

that suit and helmet are excellent, but we gotta have the white hair...

@ Nomis

Yeah why ????

TheClemster - 2/13/2014, 12:49 PM

@ cherry

now now settle down

Lancer1 - 2/13/2014, 12:51 PM

this is NOT news worthy

TheClemster - 2/13/2014, 12:52 PM

@ THEULTIMATESUPERMAN

WOW THAT'S HARSH!!!

BlackPhillip - 2/13/2014, 12:55 PM

I like Fassbender's Magneto, but that suit is crap!

TheClemster - 2/13/2014, 12:55 PM

@ Gusto

sir you are just a fountain of knowledge

SuperCat - 2/13/2014, 12:57 PM

Like it. Not bad.

SuperSomething616 - 2/13/2014, 12:59 PM

Don't get me wrong Fassbender as Magneto is excellent...just needs the white hair!!!

SaxoWolf - 2/13/2014, 1:00 PM

gambgel - 2/13/2014, 1:07 PM
