I'm pretty certain that everyone on my circle/friends list has probably heard the news by now, but still. Just in case anyone has missed it, they've released casting spoilers for the next X-Men film. (Note: There's also some basic plot information in that link, mostly speculation about the movie based on the comic that it shares a name with ( Read more... )

I'm finally caught up on reading Dreamwidth and LiveJournal! And it only took me four hours!

... don't look at me like that. Three days, six shifts, and approximately thirty-six hours at work, remember? I had several days' worth of reading to make it through.

I'm sure everybody, and I mean everybody has seen this already, but I wanted to post the link more for my own purposes. In which there's a deleted scene from X-Men: First Class involving Michael Fassbender in drag.

Okay, I have a question for the X-Men fans on my friends list.

When I was a kid, X-Men was my series (contrasting with my brother, who was all about Batman). I watched the cartoon from the early 90s religiously. I read whatever comics I could get my hands on, usually by stealing them from my older cousins (though, admittedly, I remember very ( Read more... )
