Wow, so what's that? The last I heard, it was some back story about Magneto or something. I dug the First Class movie, although the actress who played Emma Frost was terrible and was apparently only given the role due to her bra size. Unfortunately, the X-Men movies aren't even compatible with each other. I didn't even mind the Last Stand one too much; it had some cool parts to it, at least. IIRC, Cyclops was getting killed off and replaced in the comics, too. It could've been done better.
I never got to see Iron Man 3. I may as well just buy the DVD when it comes out. I'll be excited about another Avengers movie, and I think another Captain America movie, too. The problem is that they really started overdoing themselves with the comic book movies and making movies about characters who people don't really care a lot about, such as Daredevil, Electra, and Ghost Rider; or taking interesting characters and pissing them down their pant leg, such as Green Lantern. And rebooting Spider-Man way too soon and making it a terrible movie. I won't ever bother with that one. Marvel is doing a better job than DC, at least. Nolan's Batman movies got everyone excited, but that's about it. I wonder if this new Superman movie is flopping? From what I understand, it deserves to.
