As some of you know, the X-Men: First Class movie is coming. It's being produced by Bryan Singer and directed by Matthew Vaughn.
The story will be based on the first X-Men: Scott, Jean, Bobby, Warren and Hank. But what if, they changed the script and give us the All-New, All-Different X-Men?
I'm talking about Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, Thunderbird, Wolvie and Banshee. I think this version would be more exciting, here's why:
- Let's face it, the originals were boring. The original X-Men comics were dying until the new team was brought in.
- Diversity is key. The 1975 class gave us an African Goddess, a Russian farm boy, a german circus performer and a Native American. A nice mix of mutants.
- Their 'baptism of fire' provided their first loss, Thunderbird. He died within 3 issues. However, it could be a great story to tell on screen.
- We could see how the new team adapt to America. Most of them are from other countries, so to see them in a 'strange land' could be fun.
- Cyclops can stay as the leader, but it would interesting see how he adapts to the new group. Show the challenges of a group that has no idea how to be a super team.
- The movie can expose us to old or new enemies, I'm a little tired of Magneto.
- The casting of a younger Storm may redeem the character (sorry Halle Berry).
- This idea could truly reboot the series. Give a different look at the characters some of us love.
- Their origins and earlier stories are very interesting. I'm sure the viewers would enjoy seeing them played out on film.
- We could see Xavier deals with a new team. Maybe even watch him challenge Scott on being the team leader.

The 2nd class was the BEST class! Hands down I enjoyed reading those comics so much MORE!
To me the best line up was always...
1.) Storm
2.) Shadowcat
3.) Wolverine
4.) Nightcrawler
5.) Colossus
6.) Banshee
I love the line up because it was so diverse and they had the coolest powers.
I thinkmyou have some great points! Besides, didn't the other films already give a little insight to the origins of Scott and Jean?
