Nastysnow - 9/21/2011, 7:56 AM
Cant wait for second class
Blindbysight - 9/21/2011, 7:58 AM
Thats because this was in fact a moderately decent film, that only partially mind-*(!%ed the continuity. Kevin Bacon performed really well though.
m1312020 - 9/21/2011, 8:02 AM
I actually enjoyed this movie my 2nd time around.
I just needed to take my comic book guy glasses off.
marvel72 - 9/21/2011, 8:02 AM
x-men first class was good not great,i may pick it if i see it in a bargin bin.

now scarface that is great & should be in everyone's collection.
m1312020 - 9/21/2011, 8:05 AM
@Arminies Not to defend it to much,but GL made $219,804,932.
So no.
Greengo - 9/21/2011, 8:05 AM
Thank you for acknowledging my contribution to this films success.
m1312020 - 9/21/2011, 8:07 AM
@Intruder Its not out till next month.You guys keep making me defend a movie I believed was so-so.
Ranger14 - 9/21/2011, 8:09 AM
Not unlike movies being released in the theater, you have to look at what else was just released. Not much competition there. There are a lot of people who like to add a new movie to the collection each week.
Greengo - 9/21/2011, 8:10 AM
YEAH!! Next month on GL. I will contribute to it's success (heh heh) too!
Greengo - 9/21/2011, 8:11 AM
I shall support all CBM's regardless of their deficiencies.
m1312020 - 9/21/2011, 8:12 AM
@Greengo Yeah I'm contributing to all these movies success a 2nd time as well(1st theaters now DVD).
m1312020 - 9/21/2011, 8:15 AM
@Greengo I hope you didn't buy Catwoman are Johna Hex
That's where I at least draw the line(probably more but I don't feel like remembering them all).
Greengo - 9/21/2011, 8:15 AM
Except Jonah Hexx. That shit gave me a whack attack.
Greengo - 9/21/2011, 8:18 AM
Wow we where thinking same thing at the same time on that one m132020! Lmao!
m1312020 - 9/21/2011, 8:19 AM
Yeah Hex nearly killed me.I had the rope on my neck in
everything if that movie was any longer then an hour and
twenty minutes I wouldn't be here.
m1312020 - 9/21/2011, 8:20 AM
@Greengo Great minds think alike.
plasticman - 9/21/2011, 8:22 AM
@ Intruder- I think that's because No Country for Old Men just had a price drop. I thought about finally buying it with a lower price but I got X-Men and saved my money for Thor instead.

This is good news, hopefully this will push FOX into picking up the pace on The Wolverine and Deadpool so that they can work on a sequel to this movie sooner than later.
plasticman - 9/21/2011, 8:25 AM
How was Jonah Hex? I stopped watching it at 30 minutes in. I feel for those that went to the theater for that mental numbing experience.

Speaking of bad CBMs, should I check out Elektra? Was it better or worse than Daredevil?
Greengo - 9/21/2011, 8:31 AM
Good question : )
m1312020 - 9/21/2011, 8:35 AM
@plasticman Never finish Hex.Elektra was bad but watchable.Its hard to say if it was better then Daredevil.About the same I'd say(I never watched
DD's directors cut so can't say for sure on that one).
ckal - 9/21/2011, 8:40 AM
Cool.

How did Thor do on Blu-Ray/DVD it's first weekend?
Unas - 9/21/2011, 8:57 AM
Sequel. Now!
NOLANITE - 9/21/2011, 9:00 AM
I bought xmen first class.
With a coupon.
Is that a contribution?
PaulRom - 9/21/2011, 9:00 AM
@Intruder So GL came out on DVD already? It's not put for another month, stop making a pretty awesome film look like shit (or any DC film for that matter).
PaulRom - 9/21/2011, 9:01 AM
Oh, and if I like GL I'm automatically a butthurt DC fanboy.
Jordanstine - 9/21/2011, 9:08 AM
How is THOR doing?
spiderneil - 9/21/2011, 9:27 AM
bring on the sequel and set it in the 70's.
best superhero movie of 2011
CherryBomb - 9/21/2011, 9:32 AM

YAY!
bigshow2312 - 9/21/2011, 9:48 AM
Hmmmm.... I smell a sequel!
VinzClortho - 9/21/2011, 10:37 AM
Good, it deserves it. The best one out of all the x men movies.
redcorn44 - 9/21/2011, 10:45 AM
great movie. green lantern wont do 1/5 the number FC DVD/Blu-ray sales
marccampos - 9/21/2011, 10:47 AM
I hope that Lauren Shuler Donner have seen this.. X-Men First Class is a excelente super-hero movie. For me the best of 2011. And I can´t wait to see a sequel... Maybe a sequel to X-Men as well.
m1312020 - 9/21/2011, 10:56 AM
Can't we all just enjoy First class's success without bringing up other movies?
JayHova - 9/21/2011, 11:14 AM
Best cbm movie of the year!! Bring on the sequel!! Already have this and Thor in my Blu-Ray collection. Thank you target and amazon :) lol
Luis75 - 9/21/2011, 11:35 AM
Thor and Captain America will make more money than X-menFC
luffycapri - 9/21/2011, 11:36 AM
I got the Taget 3 disc version
ArmoredAsgardian - 9/21/2011, 11:55 AM
I just watched this again and I changed my mind. This was a really good movie.
Deadshot - 9/21/2011, 12:44 PM
Good, it was a great movie. And everyone including me had such huge fears about it at first.
ClarkStark - 9/21/2011, 12:47 PM
Finally caught this on blu-ray and it was surprisingly good!
aaronite1999 - 9/21/2011, 1:02 PM
Hopefully this means great things for the X-franchise, including The Wolverine and (fingers crossed) Singer's X4/X5 :-)

I'm really hoping The Wolverine continues from X3 continuity, maybe guest starring Kitty Pryde etc. Not because X3 was the greatest or anything, but because the original series deserves some respect.
Frogman - 9/21/2011, 1:09 PM
Its not even out in the UK yet,,, it'll make even more
MissMystique - 9/21/2011, 1:21 PM
great!!!
marvel72 - 9/21/2011, 1:43 PM
captain america & thor will sell more copies.
SUPERBATSPIDERMAN - 9/21/2011, 1:46 PM
Fantastic film I ordered this online so it should be here soon.
brewtownpsych - 9/21/2011, 3:12 PM
good flick, not as good the second time around however. but solid. i'm holding my verdict until i watch the big four CBM's of 2011 again on DVD before i rank them. So far it's Thor ahead of First Class.
