"It's a very beautiful memory, Erik. Thank you. There's so much more to you than you know. Not just pain and anger. There's good too, I felt it."

What if X-men: First Class was a romance novel?

[chheese-mmmhh]

having charles say they don’t want the same thing after erik called them brothers is certainly a choice😭 also the way erik was saying the gayest shit and had to add that brothers line just to make sure he wasn’t caught out

girl help the new cherik fans are re-doing the misogynistic comments about Moira MacTaggert which ought to have been left behind a decade ago. girl they're ignoring all her strengths and complexities in favour of saying she's useless because she 'gets in the way' of a gay ship

God, Magneto's Nazi manhunt is so fucking good.

This movie leans in hard on Magneto being a Holocaust victim. Previous movies had referenced it for poignancy with his charismatic speeches, but his plot in First Class is about the shadow of that genocide and its effects on him.

When we first meet Adult Xavier, he's using his rich boy education to flirt with women.

When we first meet Adult Magneto, he's on a bloody warpath.

He's got a conspiracy wall of targets and he's looking to put a little more iron in the blood of the Nazi who killed his mum.

And he has a sense of fucking poetry about it.

"This gold was torn from the teeth of my people," he says, moments before forcing Schmidt's banker to surrender his location by. Uh.

I love this about First Class's Magneto. He is such a scenery-chewing showman. Michael Fassbender had the unfortunate task of needing to follow Ian McKellen in this role, and these opening scenes are truly promising.

He's just.

He is so fucking smooth while positively glowing with impending retaliatory violence and I want to have his fucking babies oh my god. Magneto, you magnificent bastard, I'm so sorry that your solo film was cancelled because Barakapool sucked.

I actually wonder if Magneto's hunt for Schmidt in this film is actually the leftover remnant from the script for X-Men Origins: Magneto.

I'm seeing a huge resurgence in X-Men posting on my dash since the release of Deadpool & Wolverine and I call it

the X-Menaissance

I do often wonder how Charles, who had been inside Erik's mind many times to that point, thought the play for sympathy was to say someone was just following orders
