Honestly, my hopes aren't very high for this. It really seems to me as though they're trying to pull off way too much with this movie. Phoenix? Brotherhood? Juggernaut? Not to mention, if the Brotherhood is rising up to a great degree, there must be something from the humans that's causing that as well. And then there are the new mutants. Besides Phoenix and Juggernaut...Beast, Angel, Kitty Pryde, Colossus, and I think some others as well. The Phoenix saga is a movie in and of itself. The Brotherhood, frankly, has been done - at least as the *main* villain. I could be - and I really hope I am - proven wrong, but at this stage it seems to me as if they took the plot of some X-Men videogame, with a ton of "bosses" and mildly developed plots, and tried to make it into a movie.
And all that is not to mention some of the spoiler things I've read which make the previous things I just mentioned look like the GOOD points.
Nonetheless, I will see it. And I will hope that I'm wrong.
