Everyone was acting like it was Ang Lee's Hulk bad. I'd say it was more on the level of being just a bit better than Spiderman 3.

I have more interest in getting a kick in the stones than seeing Magneto Origins.in fairness he didnt really do much........its not like he had a rich history like Wolverine i'd hardly say that. raised in the auschwitz concentration camp, befriending a young charles xavier, getting married to the gypsy magda and having a daughter, and taking out that boat with hundreds of nazis upon it is a fairly expansive history.

I personally liked SM 3 (because that will be the only venom and incarnation of the church scene I will ever see so I have to accept it) but based on what other people feel about SM 3 for you to compare wolverine to that is very harsh I thought wolverine on it's own would have been awesome but the other xmen movie dug into way too much wolverine already which really took away from this film. Deadpool was a waste too

OK man...is it enough action for a movie though?you know Fox will want action........and last I read there was no plans to feature Xavier in it. doesnt appeal to me whatsoever.

It's going to be, by and large, a period piece. Fox has plenty of movies under their belt that have done just fine without action. Just because your attention span can't handle something rich like Magneto's past doesn't mean anyone else can't.

Just saw it... very mediocre movie and kind of a throwaway story as well, with him losing his memory at the end and all...

if they do make a magneto origins movie, i'd hope it would lead upto quicksilver/scarlet witch being featured.

Yet you say Magneto has no history... holy shit.nowhere did I say he has no history-IN MY OPINION its not as colorful as Wolverines-again- in my opinion. I have no objection to Fox making 40 Magneto movies if they want-its just not for me.I love him as a Villian and Id hope to see him in another X movie sooner than his own. again just my opinion.

Movie wasn't that bad, but it wasn't that great, it was kind of "meh". I was disppointed after it was over but it was by no means the worst Marvel movie ever.

If you're talking about what I think you are, it was either Quicksilver moving so fast that it created a whirl, or Storm using a tornado trying to get out of the cage.

Originally I was all for a Magneto movie.
But now, after Wolverine, I realize it'd just be an hour and a half long action figure advertisement with as many X characters thrown onto the screen as possible. And probably Hugh Jackman would show up to help a younger Magneto fight off the Nazis. Ugh. Yes, Magneto's an interesting character, a fully fleshed out persona that could switch between hero and villain, but still... I'd rather his story not be cut short to sell some Burger King toys.
If Wolverine was the first shot fired to get an entire X-Men Origins film series up and running, Fox has been going with some pretty piss-poor ammunition.
