X-Men: First Class, or No Darwin No Peace

from Marvelous! Or, the Death of Cinema · host Nicole Veneto, Tyrell James, and Cole

So here's a movie everyone misremembers as being really good: X-Men: First Class. Not directed by a serial rapist pedophile or rampant sex pest of adult women, but by certified hack slop directed Matthew Vaughn a.k.a. Matthew Allard de Vere Drummond. It's the first of Fox's nu-X-Men movies in a saga that will end in Dark Phoenix (or New Mutants, however the fuck this canon goes). Basically we watched Star Trek again because this is also a prequel overstuffed with fanservice and weird shit about women. Made to be watched on FX with commercial breaks or by teenage girls projecting yaoi fanfic onto young Professor X and Magneto. Stu begins this episode in the closet and ends it in the closet running a 102 degree fever. Thank you to our $10 Executive Producers: Isaac, Porridge Fist, Walt Lewellyn of The Black Casebook, Kevin Feige doing the Shmurda Dance, Owen2, bernventers, Jim (shout out to Jim!), and jprestonpoole If you can, also consider supporting these organizations in Palestine: ANERA (American Near-East Refugee Aid)  PCRF (Palestinian Relief Children's Fund) MAP (Medical Aid for Palestinians) Thank you for listening! Please consider rating, reviewing, and subscribing to our Patreon where you can enjoy special bonus content, exclusive Discord community events, and have your name added to our Credits Page. Production by Miguel Tanhi. Art by Zoe Woolley and barf. Follow @MarvelousDeath for updates.
