Something....very strange in the trailer.

[Radford]

She's not naked. Wearing a black top. It's just obscured by the wings. The shot of her from the front (same scene) clears that up.

[Lone]

Maybe the movieverse reason why he's in a wheelchair is because of all the sex he had in the sixties.

[Wefflehouse]

It is the 60's.

[gregtestagent]

maybe Erik was cleaning the pistol, taking it apart and reassembling with magnetism.

That, and he could be shooting the gun to practice honing his skills. Trying to stop something going that fast. That's my guess at least.

A little nod to the first film when he stops the bullet from going in that cop's head, and just holds it there spinning.

Wasn't that what I just said?

[Paste Pot Pete]

He's got a gun 'cause he's James Bond. Right?

I took it to be that since mutants are still hidden it is the two of them seeking out mutants and recruiting them for their new venture together. Plus it looks like it will be a great chance to do a Sean Connery Bond-type scene. Think From Russia with Love or Dr. No. They go into a nightclub/casino where everyone wears tuxedos and nice suits and their are '60s-styled exotic dancers. Xavier picks out which is the mutant and they go back for a "party" and instead offer her a place at their school.

It has Connery Bond written all over the scene.

Am I the only one who thinks it's funny to see Magneto in a sweatshirt and sweatpants?

[night0205]

Thinking about continuity, it's funny that Mystique and Beast got romantic... and yet in X3, strangely they never run into each other. It's also funny to think how old Mystique is but she always presents herself as a young woman, which makes sense. If this movie makes money, it will be interesting to see where they go with the next movie.

Nope, it is kinda funny... in a good way. I'm hoping the gun is for him to practice or demonstrate to the others...

Also guessing that the stripclub scene is them recruiting Angel. Of course, it looks like they're enjoying this one. Imo, have fun while you can; next time you're out recruiting, it might be someone like Toad, Skin or Maggot!

There are to many instances where Fassbender is totally pimp as Magneto in the trailer.

And it was such a small tv in a big mansion. Just a thought. LOL

In the trailer at 0:55, that girl with the wings is standing naked in front of Xavier and Magneto, who are sitting in a bed together. Are they about to have....you know....a threesome?

I'm not trying to be innapropriate, but this seemed really strange to me. It definitely looks like this. This is not a "troll" post. I am being serious. Look at that part again.

Maybe it's a gentlemens club

Well, isn't one of the side effects of Mystique shape-shifting that it suppresses her aging quite a bit.

I'm pretty sure in the comics she's almost the same age as Wolverine, but still looks like a woman around her late 20's to early 30's.

[Nave 'Torment']

At first when I read the title of this thread I thought it'd be about the gun But before I go there, lets talk about Angel Salvadore. She reminded me a lot about the Wasp though, since 2000 we've been seeing X-Men gorgeously bringing to life comic characters that people thought would be too silly for live-action, this is yet another example! I don't think it'd be the Hellfire Club, but maybe it is. Gentlemen Clubs are notorious for things you'd never expect.

Now, about that gun. At first it's a jarring visual isn't it? Here we have a group of outcasts who are just like everyone else, watching the news and feeling the world changing for the worse. And we see Erik, no way a pacifist, holding a tool of violence. The neat symbolism is fun. Who didn't see the Bond connection in there? Seriously?

I figure that Erik was practicing how to control guns/bullets like he did in the first film.

It has been mentioned in the comics that she is well over 100 years old.

Come to think of it, remember back in X3 when Charles and Erik (CGI redux) went over to the Grey house? Charlie was bald, and the pair seemed much older. I wonder how that falls into continuity this time around?

I guess they're just gunna ignore that scene altogether
..

It doesn't feel right that the Hellfire club is a 'gentleman's' club. Takes away from the regality of the organization. Sure, the women always wore some bondage lookin stuff, but it was victorian corsets, it fit the look. Is Emma Frost just a stripper now?? Are they not kings and queens?

also, about that tv, this was the 60's, television technology wasn't quite pumpin out big-screen tv's yet...though i guess magneto could make one somehow...
