Magneto Movie May Be Made in 2010!

Calling all Magneto fans! Per David Goyer "X-Men Origins: Magneto" will move forward next year!

Magneto is surely to be one of the X-Men prospects Fox is looking to develop. David Goyer chimed in to give us his thoughts regarding the master of magnetism:

They're still thinking about doing it," Goyer revealed to MTV News. "They're definitely looking into doing other X-Men spin offs."

We all knew that David! But when is Magneto actually going to get under way? Goyer states:

"I've been in touch with them," he said. "I'm sure that project will move forward in the next year or so."

How will David Goyer pull off Supermax, Batman 3, and produce Flash Forward, while turning in a quality Magneto script all in one year, you may ask? I don't know. But according to Goyer we should all find out within the next year.

	Wow, I see this as great news! I may have to write a fanfic some tmie in the next few months to help sell this idea to those who might doubt it. I think they should change it to "X-Men Origins: Xavier and Magnus" TheMyth - 8/24/2009, 7:49 AM
	meh...not for me :( teabag - 8/24/2009, 7:55 AM
	How can a pequel move FORWARD? By definiton doesn't it move backward? superdog - 8/24/2009, 7:56 AM
	I hate physics :( teabag - 8/24/2009, 8:04 AM
	Bout time! Now they should hurry up an do DEADPOOL, GAMBIT and forget FIRST CLASS unless they use the ORIGINAL X-MEN! ; ) Heck, we want a SABRETOOTH movie!!! Oh and X4 (With CABLE) ; D LEEE777 - 8/24/2009, 8:05 AM
	Enough with Magneto. Does this character really deserve his own movie? I think not. Deathlok - 8/24/2009, 8:10 AM
	I really think fox is spreading itself to thin in terms of the Xmen franchise. I mean Xmen first class, another Wolverine movie, a Deadpool movie and now Magneto, if they keep it up like this they might half ass all of them instead of focusing on 1 and making it really good. Cape - 8/24/2009, 8:12 AM
	Yeah i already know what Magneto does in his spare time... :P teabag - 8/24/2009, 8:16 AM
	Well as long as he doesn't DIRECT!!! That's the last thing the X-franchises need after being Ratnered. Oh and this week, i should be able to sketch up who Tyler and I think would be an EXCELLENT Magneto!!! Keep a look out in the fan fic section ;) Shaman - 8/24/2009, 8:17 AM
	every one needs a spare job these days. magneto could get his own movie, that wouldnt bother me. as long as thier done right. and the reason goyer can do all these things is cause he just writes a barebones script then hands it off to other people to finish and polish. that saves him lots of time. superdog - 8/24/2009, 8:23 AM
	excellent news. hurry up will ya droopy1317 - 8/24/2009, 8:25 AM
	i like how you put exclamation point in the the headline like it will be the best thing since sliced bread. make a x men 4 instead. grif - 8/24/2009, 8:48 AM
	ugh, you just know that fox will [frick] this up with cameos from other characters that shouldnt be there (like in Origins) and who the hell would want to see a Magneto movie anyway!?! His origin was pretty much done with in X-Men 1! DO. NOT. WANT joshw24 - 8/24/2009, 8:54 AM

	so thats how michael jordan could fly like an eagle. cheating bastard. superdog - 8/24/2009, 9:13 AM
	I don't get why no one wants a Magneto movie and here's why: (a) It's not like we, the fans, have to pay to have it made. (b) It's not like they won't be able to make other Marvel movies because of it, not to mention the fact that FOX owns the X-franchise so it actually has zero impact on the rest of the Marvel Universe movies being made. (c) Magneto is one of the greatest villians of all time. If we were ever able to see Magneto use his powers to their potential we'd see that he is probably one of the top 3 most powerful mutants on Earth. He could probably tear the planet in two due to the magnetic aspects. And the dynamic of his character versus Charles and the X-Men is great-- he's not an evil man and he doesn't hate the X-Men, he is just a man defending his race. This is no different than a black man fighting racism would have been in the '60s. It's not like Magneto is just a man who is a murdered or a thief, he is fighting for a cause which, in the Marvel Universe, actually does make a lot of sense to fight for. All that being said, I think that-- IF done right-- this movie could be awesome. So if you want to complain that they'll F' it up, that's a fair complaint. But saying that you don't want it made considering that it doesn't effect you whatsoever if it is really makes no sense. MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 9:17 AM
	Guys did you ever think that Magneto would be a good movie to lead into the X-Men first class prequel by looking at Xavier as well as Magneto's lives and seeing how they came together and how their great battle started and then the first class movies can look at how the first Brotherhood/X-Men battles began. They should do a trilogy with the original X-men (Emma Frost and Storm can replace Iceman and Angel) and show how they came together (Cyclops and Emma rescued from Weapon X, Beast could appear at the end of the Magneto movie recruited by Prof X and then Jean was already recruited in X3). They could go to Africa to fight the Shadow King and in the process meet Storm, then in the sequels, Polaris and Havok come along and the first incarnation of the Brotherhood (Magneto, Toad, Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch and Unus the Untouchable or Avalanche) and the Hellfire Club are the enemies in no 2 and 3 dancingmonkey08 - 8/24/2009, 9:19 AM
	MetalHead@ starving kids dont have any impact directly to me but it doesnt mean i want it to happen!....my reason is that its pointless......whats next Green Goblin....The Rhino?? plus we have had Magneto rammed down our throughts just as much as Wolverine.....they wanna give me a villain movie...il take Apocolypse :P teabag - 8/24/2009, 9:21 AM
	Awesome!!!! @LEEE: Right on man!!!! TheCritic17 - 8/24/2009, 9:24 AM

	How about a Dr. Evil movie? =P SirPrize - 8/24/2009, 9:27 AM
	Magneto is a boring villain! not only has he been used to death in the comic books but as teabag rightly stated we've already had him thrown at us for 3 movies! i mean Magneto's origin is basically him as a kid in a concentration camp, he survives, meets Xavier, they fall out - THE END! not only would it be a boring superhero movie for CBM fans but do you really think this a film that would attract the general movie going public who dont care about Magneto!? I wouldnt care if they had Favreau directing it and it was made by Marvel - it would still be boring!! the fact that its in Fox's hands just guarantess itll be crap! joshw24 - 8/24/2009, 9:27 AM
	I fully agree with deathlok. Magneto doesn't need his own movie. We saw like half of it in the begining of the first X-Men movie, plus all he does is hold out his hand and stuff starts flying around the screen, thats ok for part of a movie but just really boring when it is all you get for the whole movie. Phileo26 - 8/24/2009, 9:32 AM
	I agree metel head. Magneto is one of the most defined villains in the Marvel Universe. Who wouldnt want to see Magneto crushing Nazis in the concentration camp when he was younger(that was one of the best scenes in the X-Men Trilogy)? That would be awesome and then move on with how Charles and Magneto's riff began. Showing Magneto in his prime. Besides anyone that say's they dont wanna see it will sure as shit be in line opening night or on that weekend. Offcourse they have to do it right, Magneto stripped Wolverine of his admantium, he stole Rogue for awhile. Ian Mckellen is an awesome actor, but lets see Magneto like he was in the comics jman1977 - 8/24/2009, 9:33 AM
	jman@ im a bag of principles....i will not go and see Magneto...just the same as i will not be watching season 9 of Snoreville....im not gonna change the world but il know i stuck to what i beleive :P so there plllllslllpppppppp ..lol teabag - 8/24/2009, 9:37 AM
	MAGNETO could be a very deep and thought out movie! More haters, hating on something yet to be even made! Hate BORIGINS now thats a sh!te movie (pity), but MAGNETO could grow into something amazing! im looking forward to it! ; ) Again, its the ACKLES LOVE CLUB that don't think this is a good idea! Says it all!!! ; D LEEE777 - 8/24/2009, 9:39 AM
	Like I said above guys, they need to change this to an Xavier AND Magneto origin story. I promise it COULD (stressing that word because Fox is in charge of this) be a great movie. If you don't know much about the beginnings of these 2 characters, then let me reassure you, there is some spectacular material here to work with. Characters like Moira McTaggert, Amelia Voight, Sage, Lucifer, Cain Marko, Shadow King, and many others with easter eggs including Mr. Sinister and Amanda Muller, Destiny, High Evolutionary, the beginnings of David Haller... The story surrounding Xavier's beginnings pre-X-Men is a 3 hour movie in itself, and a DAMN good one. I implore all of you X-fans to read up on these stories. Start with the Magneto Testament, a 5 issue mini series, then check anything you can on Project: Black Womb. Xavier's origins are spread through years of books so just ask me ;). Lighten up folks, I think this movie deserves to be made more than any other X-prequel in development right now, including the Deadpool movie. They should all take back burner to this project. The only thing that should trump this project is X4. Josh, dude, I'm almost insulted by your oversimplification. Magneto's origin is much, much more than that. Trust me. Leee, I'm part of the Ackles love club lol, and I'm all for this flic. Speaking of Ackles, I'd like to throw another name in the pot for Cap... Aaron Eckhart. Matter of fact, Ackles is now my 2nd choice next to Eckhart TheMyth - 8/24/2009, 9:40 AM
	LEEE...your obsession is the ultimate Hate of something that hasent been made.....so clearly you cannot judge...lol :P teabag - 8/24/2009, 9:44 AM
	ya im not upset at a magneto movie hes one of the most complex villians out there hes the malcolm x of mutants....but i agree with leee we need a sabertooth movie and hahaha tea thats great but myth is right magnetos origin is not simple by any means SabretoothTiger - 8/24/2009, 9:44 AM
	ALL THINGS ASIDE, MAKE AN X 4, X-MEN VS APOCOLYPSE, MR SINISTER, 4 HORSEMEN, ONLY THE STRONGEST SURVIVE, ARCHANGEL...WHAT SUPER GEEK OR NOVICE WOULDNT JIZ IN THEIR PANTS FOR THIS? THAT PLUS GET A GOOD DIRECTOR. GUNSMITH - 8/24/2009, 9:45 AM
	TEA @ Heh heh heh! ; D Sabre @ ; ) An cool idea @ GUN!! LEEE777 - 8/24/2009, 9:45 AM
	jman, I'm with you. I think a lot of these anti-Magneto movie fans must be younger fans. When you think X-Men, you think Magneto. Any time I think X-Men the first thing that comes to my head every time is the cover of Uncanny X-Men #1. And the difference between (as teabag put it) a Green Goblin origin is this: (1) We already saw his origin in Spider-Man. (2) There isn't much more to the Green Goblin's story that we didn't seen in the first movie. Yes, he did many things, but there's nothing we didn't see that was crucial to explaining his character. (3) The Green Goblin is a straight-up villian. Magneto is not. Magneto believes that what he is doing is right, and you could make the argument that it is. The Green Goblin was just a blatant criminal. There is so much to the Magnus character to be explored. There is nothing else to Norman Osborn's character that we haven't seen. And teabag, horrible analogy about starving kids. The difference is that kids starving is a tragic event. Worst case here, FOX will make YOU spend $11 at the theaters on a movie that you say you don't want to see but will anyway. No one dies in that scenerio, let alone thousands. MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 9:47 AM
	AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Teabag, your a [frick]in' evil genius. I have yet to meet an Englishman I don't like. I have lots of English friends on Xbox Live, and man, I swear at times I was born in the wrong country. TheMyth - 8/24/2009, 9:48 AM
	Gun@ now thats a movie ...:) TheMyth@ you da man :) MetalHead@ im sorry you didnt like what i had to say but i just dont see the need to agree with you, the same as i apreciate you doing the same...oh and im not a younger fan, we hear alot about the loss of originalety in Hollywood , this proves it :) teabag - 8/24/2009, 9:48 AM
	teabag for president. If there is a Magneto movie i would hope to see the adamantium stripped from Wolverine or do some older stuff with Acolytes like Exodus and Cortez. A more physically relevant actor as Magnus would do more justice to the feeling of being in the presence of awesome power. undeadpool - 8/24/2009, 9:54 AM
	yes gun i like your thinking as well . undeadpool - 8/24/2009, 9:56 AM
	sirprize@ where did you find those shoes i want them peterparker420 - 8/24/2009, 9:58 AM
	How does this have anything to do with "the loss of originality in Hollywood"? It's actually the complete opposite. How many movies are there where a man, viewed as the villian, is defending his race and is the main character? The fact is that people just whine and complain for the sake of whining and complaining. Why not see the positive in that all of these characters who we all grew up reading are now getting major exposure on the big screen, leading to more money for the comic companies, leading to better quality things in the future and more projects. A movie like "Deadpool" would NEVER be able to happen without the successes of all of these other movies. And the more successful ones there are, the more likely you are to see your favorite lesser-known heroes and villians on the big screen. And I'm not fighting with you teabag, don't take this personally. I'm just stating that people need to stop the complaining and start seeing the positives. It costs us absolutely nothing to have these movies made and only costs anywhere between $10-$40 to see them. It's not like it costs us 2+ years and millions of dollars like it costs the studios. We should enjoy them and be glad that they're being made, not bashing them for happening because we'd all be complaining if they WEREN'T being made. MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 9:59 AM
	PeterParker - CLICK HERE for those Magneto kicks. SirPrize - 8/24/2009, 10:01 AM
	And I will say this, teabag: IF you want to complain that they are totally F'ing up his story and that you'd rather they just not make a movie on him (or any other who character they do this to), that's a whole different complaint and I'm fine with that. I'm actually all for it. What I can't see is the point of complaining about a movie being made that has absolutely zero negative impact or effects on your life. MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 10:04 AM
	MetalHead@ im not arguing my friend were debating...aint it cool :P When there is an amazing amount of characters that could be brought to the screen ahead of this i call that lack of originality.......and why is it the people who dont find interest in something are called haters while the people excited about a movie hate everyone who are not........who are the real haters!!!!!!!! :P teabag - 8/24/2009, 10:05 AM
	Gunsmith and others, I disagree with rushing in with Apocalypse for X4. Apocalypse is a villain that neds some introduction. I say X4 should be exclusively the Mutant Massacre. That event set up many others, including Apocalypse first group of Horseman being collected. He appeared amidst the massacre and beat Harpoon and Sabertooth down to claim the Morlock, Plague for his Horseman, Pestilence. Undeadpool, umm, those things you mentioned have nothing to do with Magneto's origin. Try again. TheMyth - 8/24/2009, 10:06 AM
	no of course not the myth i was stating that for any storyline not just origins undeadpool - 8/24/2009, 10:11 AM
	teabag, I didn't call you a hater. That was another poster. And although my tone could be read as confrontational and insulting, it's actually meant to be positive and enlightening. TheMyth, I'm with you. I read your X-trilogy fan fic for X4-X6 a while back and it was pretty good. I, myself, once wrote a huge outline as to how the 3 should go and in my version Sinister was the main enemy in X4 with the X-tinction Agenda being the main plot, and Apocalypse was foreshadowed with a cameo, building to the ultimate battle between Apocalypse and the 4 Horsemen versus the X-Men in X6. MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 10:11 AM
	I was always one who was very excited at the mention of a Magneto movie. He has always been one of my favorite Marvel villians. After reading his recent Marvel Knights mini series though, I'm having second thoughts. That shit was boring! longbowhunter - 8/24/2009, 10:14 AM
	MetalHead@....i know you didnt my friend it was just a general observation and dont worry your not insulting me ;P teabag - 8/24/2009, 10:15 AM
	Undeadpool, lol, phew, for a second there, sounded like you thought it was lol. My bad. lol, guys, Metalhead always sounds like that when he debates. Thats the problem with internet debates, you can't read body language so you interpret things differently than from what the poster meant is all. Metalhead, I would leave Sinister in the shadows for X4, but he would be featured and fans would know who it was, just like in the books, noone knew for some time that it was Sinister who dispatched the Marauders to commit genocide. Actually, Sinister didn't even appear in the comics for another 2 years I believe. I also think the Massacre story would be a good chance to pull my favorite character of all time into the X-Men movies, Gambit. TheMyth - 8/24/2009, 10:18 AM
	I don't understand how fans of THE X-MEN could be arguing against an origin story of the two most prolific characters (and most POWERFUL mutants) in the history??? DOESN'T DESERVE HIS OWN MOVIE??? Watching MAGNUS and CHARLES grow together.....then later grow apart could be EPIC on film. It would have to be done MUCH MUCH better the WOLVERINE, but watching them create CEREBRO together then start butting heads as you begin to see MAGNUS starting to view CHARLES as an enemy, and in turn beginning to develop the helmet in secret that would protect him from CHARLES' power... that plus Moira McTaggert, Banshee, Shadow King, Storm, Quicksilver, The Scarlet Witch, etc, etc.. In fact, i think it would be hard to do this as one film! To do the ORIGINS of these characters justice it seriously should be a Trilogy! Dunno, just my .02 @THEMYTH- That is a much better title!!! @METALHEAD Exactly, you are thinkin along the correct lines. MAGNETO is a HERO, and an ANTI-HERO all rolled into one! It would take a very talented actor to pull his character off! Talontd - 8/24/2009, 10:25 AM
	The Myth your knowlegde on the X-verse seems pretty indepth dude. Being an older fanman (flippin pages since mid70s) it is awesome to have discovered all of you guys here. Solitude and comics have always gone together so it is pretty interesting to hear all of these opinions and ideas.thanx CBM undeadpool - 8/24/2009, 10:27 AM
	I dont think anyone said he doesnt deserve his own movie its just that ive seen Magneto in three films origin or not.....they have completely screwed with the origins in X men anyway so just carry on the story with some fresh characters :) Undeadpool@ luv ya man :) teabag - 8/24/2009, 10:29 AM
	Myth, That's actually exactly what I did with Sinister in mine, too. I messed up when I wrote that last post. I had the X-Tincion Agenda/Cameron Hodge/creation of the Sentinels/Magneto & the X-Men vs. The Sentinels, etc., stuff as X4, a version of the Mutant Massacre as X5 and then Apocalypse & The Horsemen versus the X-Men in X6. And just like you said, I had Sinister in the shadows in X4 and Apocalypse in the shadows/hinted at in X4 and X5. I even had X5 ending with a cliffhanger where Angel was seeking a cure. Man, these movies would be badass! MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 10:30 AM
	Not that I don't think "X-Men Origins: Magneto" won't be a kick ass movie, because it will, I just think they should make a "X-Men Origins: Sabertooth" movie first because everyone likes Sabertooth right now. MIDAS - 8/24/2009, 10:31 AM
	How is this going to work? What actor will they get that: 1.Resembles, at least in part, mckellan? 2. Has the acting chops to do a younger portrayal of a well established character? Might be good, but I have my doubts! wards - 8/24/2009, 10:35 AM
	umm luv u too teabag. now i feel at home. sniffle undeadpool - 8/24/2009, 10:36 AM
	Talontd, "I don't understand how fans of THE X-MEN could be arguing against an origin story of the two most prolific characters (and most POWERFUL mutants) in the history?" EXACTLY. Now don't take this as a knock on Gambit cause it's not meant to be that at all, but here's how I break down X-fans: -First you have the original fans who like the dynamic of the racism symbolism and the writing, regardless of who the team was. -Then you have the Wolverine X-fans. (No offense meant here...) This group of fans is more interested in seeing Wolverine than actually seeing the X-Men. -Next you have the Gambit generation X-fans. MANY-- not all-- of these fans are the younger generation who really became interested once X-Men #1 came out. To them-- and there's nothing wrong with this-- their essential X-Men is the lineup that was around at that point in time (when they split into the blue and gold teams). -There is also a group of Cable X-fans which is a very similar fanbase as the Gambit generation fans except are more into the X-Force route. -Finally, you have the fans who love all generations equally. The point of this is that depending on which category you fall under, you may not care about someone like Magneto as much as you care about Deadpool. I guess I fall under the category of the fan of the older stuff, regardless of the team. To me, you just can't have an X-story without Magneto. But on the other hand, some fans feel that way about Cable, Gambit or Deadpool, for example. And I feel that Magneto is just as important to the X-Universe as Professor X or Wolverine, and that's just me and I understand that others feel differently. MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 10:42 AM
	When you think of a villain for X-Men, the first one you think of is Magneto. Plus his story is so deep, it could be great. Not to mention it would probably introduce Scarlette Witch and Quick Silver, which could tie them to Avengers. Ok, I know it's different studios, but if they were smart they'd work together and make a lot of money. MIDAS - 8/24/2009, 10:56 AM
	what a waste. the first xmen movie told all you need to know about his origin. this will be boring CorndogBurglar - 8/24/2009, 10:59 AM
	I could care less about the x-men franchise anymore. All these origin movies are made to make us forget about x-3. I mean what the hell, x-men first class?! Drop dead fox, you already impaled yourselves by giving anything to Brett ratner,let alone X FREAKIN 3!!! Bring Bryan Singer back or let the franchise die. supermarioworldE - 8/24/2009, 11:02 AM
	the actor would have to be top notch but i say that this is a movie that needs to be made hes not just a major part in the x-universe hes a major part in marvel period and havin xmen without him is like havin batman without joker it just cant be done i mean the other storylines are great but magneto is involved in any xmen story in someway shape or form so i say get this done but make it good and put thought and effort into it this could turn into an amazin movie and im pretty sure magneto could draw a lot more attention from nonfans than deadpool who doesnt even get close to magnetos level in deservin his own movie sorry dp lovers but hes not as important or threatenin to mutants as magneto is SabretoothTiger - 8/24/2009, 11:06 AM
	there's actually a lot more to his origin, like his wife and kid that were set on fire by mutant haters, and the revenge he takes on the military for letting it happen. which in turn gives his reasoning for hating the humans. but you know they won't do that, for one. plus, like others have said, we've had magneto in 3 movies already. lets see someone new. i want apocalypse and sinister for christ's sake. but that would get screwed up too. and all the characters getting rescued from weapon x screwed so much up in wolverine... CorndogBurglar - 8/24/2009, 11:13 AM
	Im been a fan of the early 70's stuff personaly though i love evrything before and after....i have seen Magneto through all his major changes and agree he is one of the single greatesh creations in comics and by all means im not against a Magneto movie...just not now....i never thought id see the day when my beloved comics would be movies but it seems now we are subjected to endless reboots ans retreads of characters...im bored of batman im bored of Wolverine and yes im bored of Magneto, im not a huge fan of Cable but i would rather see him made into a movie than Magneto when i have seen him since 1999 :) teabag - 8/24/2009, 11:14 AM
	@ metalhead "To me, you just can't have an X-story without Magneto." so i guess all the other 100 x-villains are pointless and don't expand on the x-universe?? is any story without magneto as the villain a waste?? your only interested in xmen if magneto is the villain?? your missing out on a LOT of cool villain characters my friend... CorndogBurglar - 8/24/2009, 11:18 AM
	Not too sure on this one. Lot of things could go wrong here. Look what happened to Wolverine. I hope Goyer doesn't direct the movie, leave him to the script only. I'm remaining cautiously optimistic at this point. InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/24/2009, 11:18 AM
	@ midas "When you think of a villain for X-Men, the first one you think of is Magneto" that can be said about ANY superhero comic character or team. its called an arch-nemesis. when you think batman, you think the joker, but batman has a million other great villains, too. in fact he's known for having the best rouges gallery in comics, and the x-men rouges gallery is up there too! CorndogBurglar - 8/24/2009, 11:20 AM
	CDB, I guess that came off wrong. I didn't mean that I dislike the other villians. I actually love many of them, including the Sentinels, Apocalypse, Sinister and Sabretooth. I guess that implies that in my opinion the comics should be called "The X-Men versus Magneto" and that's not how I feel. Maybe a better way to put it is that Magneto is the X-Men's Joker and although there are other cool enemies, he should be (and was so far) an important part in all the movies. MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 11:23 AM
	TheMyth: lol, i know that theres more to Magneto's origin than that but you've got to admit that is the basic outline of it! he's a good character but i dont think that he's good enough to justify his own solo movie! and to be honest, i really dont think i would go and see it - like with Punisher Warzone id wait a year or so until it is reduced right under the £10 mark on blu-ray! I can just see Fox filling this movie with cameos of characters who shouldnt even be there! :( but like i said above, even if this wasnt being made by Fox i still wouldnt be that interested because IMO it will be boring!! joshw24 - 8/24/2009, 11:24 AM
	@ metalhead i hear you, but at the same time, they've just done 3 movies that were totally based on the prejudice side of things. 3 MOVIES!!!! with the same villain! i just think its time to have them fight apocalypse. the whole "survival of the fittest" story would be a welcome change, with no focus on humans hating mutants. apocalypse is cool because he wants things to be relatively even, have a war between the humans and mutants, and the strongest race wins. he's not there to see mutants take over, he's there to make sure the strongest race inherits the earth. that would be an awesome movie! CorndogBurglar - 8/24/2009, 11:26 AM
	CorndogBurglar: thats why i didnt like Singers X-Men films - too much whining about mutant prejudice (reflecting Singers own feelings about homophobia) and not enough of the X-Men we all know and love from the comic books! joshw24 - 8/24/2009, 11:32 AM
	@TEABAG- DEATHLOK QUOTE: "Enough with Magneto. Does this character really deserve his own movie? I think not." I know it's not the way you feel, but there are people saying it. It seems like you have more of a Lex Luther-esque problem with this film being made. What I mean by that is that it seems like your just tired of him being the central villian. Thats cool if that's how you feel, but try to think of where we are coming from... ...New Actors. ...New Setting. ...Same powers, but MAGNUS at 20yrs will be ALOT different than MAGNUS at 60yrs. ...New Plot, remember as the first film starts (I believe this needs at least TWO movies) MAGNUS will be GOOD! Don't forget how much stuff there is... ...Anya his daughter is murdered by an angry mob. ...Magda his wife runs off while pregnant with twins. ...The race for the Nazi gold against HYDRA ...Plus all the potential tie-ins with Capt. America, Red Skull, Wolverine (HYDRA is/was THE HAND afterall) Man, i get so amped up thinking about it!! I just can't believe some fans wouldn't be into it!!! Talontd - 8/24/2009, 11:34 AM
	It's too early to label it boring or anything for that matter. Obviously, it's going to be a period piece. If they produce this movie they'll need (TheMyth's point is noted) Xavier involved. It would be brilliant to see the first mutant team-up, Magneto and Xavier. They have called each other brother and old friend, so there is a lot of mutual respect between the two. Would be great to see their friendship evolve and dissolve. They each have their own ideology. IMHO, Magneto’s has a realist ideology and Xavier has a humanitarian ideology. This is even stated in all the comics, movies and toons. I’m all for it, but it must have Xavier involved or this movie will fail. SirPrize - 8/24/2009, 11:36 AM
	josh you dont think magneto havin his own movie isnt justifiable i bet you want to see a deadpool movie though hes not even close to havin as much complexity as magneto yes it would be cool to see him kickin ass and cuttin peoples heads off but you know fox is not gonna go the r rated route for it so its gonna be borin as well with magneto's they can do so much more as far as effects and action because he can rip metal apart almost down to a molecular level deadpool can regenerate and fight good think wolverine with swords thats what his movie is gonna be like SabretoothTiger - 8/24/2009, 11:37 AM
	I want to see more of the X-Men actually team up to take down an enemy. The other movies have, for the most part, separated the X-Men and made them fight different villains. I want the whole team to fight together, that would be awesome. InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/24/2009, 11:39 AM
	tyler i hear you on that one i didnt like how it was a showdown for each villian i wanted to see more of what was goin on in the danger room from x3 when colossus throws wolverine at the sentinel that and more teamwork needs to be in every xmen movie p.s. and im not tryin to be an ass josh i just dont see why anyone would think that deadpool deserves his own movie over magneto SabretoothTiger - 8/24/2009, 11:43 AM

	Another MAJOR thing that people are forgetting in regards to Magneto's origin... IS THE CREATION OF THE BROTHERHOOD!!! How cool would it be to see him assemble the team of Scarlett Witch, Quicksilver, Blob and Toad?!? AWESOME! CDB, Trust me, I would love to see other X-stories, too. But people are acting as though this movie will prevent that from happening. This isn't X4, it's X-Men Origins: Magneto. They can still do X4 down the road. And here's the thing: you said "they've just done 3 movies that were totally based on the prejudice side of things." When you consider that this concept was the main plotline in the X-Universe and when you consider that storylines like Apocalypse are a very smaller percentage of the X-Universe from day one, it does make sense that the theme of mankind versus mutantkind would be the dominant concept. And it's also something that the general public can relate to due to the symbolism, compared to a character like Apocalypse who is just, plain and simple, an evil adversary. MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 11:46 AM
	SabertoothTiger: actually even though i enjoyed Wolverine (to some extent anyway) after Fox's track record of films like Elektra, Fantastic Four and X-Men 3 i could happily live without a Deadpool film as I think its fair to say it wont be very good! i know opinions are mixed on Singers X-Men films (im on the side that thought they were crap) but overall Fox have not made a good comic book movie ever so my expectations for Deadpool arent great sadly! :( Showing Magneto and Xaviers past together could be interesting but what is the point!?! i guess it could serve as a prequel of sorts into X-Men: First Class but i think id just prefer either that or X-Men 4 (slightly rebooted to bring back Cyclops etc) joshw24 - 8/24/2009, 11:47 AM
	I would rather see a Deadpool movie than a Magneto one, mainly for the fact that I think Deadpool and his adventures are more interesting than I do for Magneto's origin. I'm just not that interested in finding out how Magneto grew up. InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/24/2009, 11:47 AM
	TYLER: despite what ive said above about biend worried how Fox will [frick] up Deadpool - i agree with you...Deadpool is more interesting, more exciting and would make a better movie than Magneto's boring back story! joshw24 - 8/24/2009, 11:51 AM
	teabag, Here's why I guess no one is "seeing it from your side": it's not like FOX/Marvel have come out and said "Ok fans, we're only making ONE more movie EVER. So vote on who you want and whoever wins, that's who you get." The fact is that FOX making this movie has no negative impacts on any other movies being made. And in another scenario, it's not like they will be spending so much on making this movie that it could result in them going bankrupt and therefore no more movies being made. If you could come up with a negative to this movie being made OTHER THAN the fact that you think it would be boring, people might agree with your side. But the fact is that this movie being released can't hurt anything, at least not that I can think of. MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 11:52 AM

	InTylerWeTrust82, You just hit the nail on the head of EXACTLY why I don't get everyone's complaining-- you said "I would rather see a Deadpool movie than a Magneto one." The thing is that you don't have to choose between one or the other-- apparently we are getting both! It's not like because of a Magneto movie we aren't getting a Deadpool movie. Now once this does start becoming an issue, then I'll start considering this side of the debate. But until that happens, I just don't see why everyone is so against this movie being made. And let's face it, EVERYONE on here is gonna see it anyway. MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 11:56 AM

	@TEABAG- I'm sorry if i've come off preachy, and don't get me wrong....I compeletly understand where your coming from, i think all of us that are rooting for this movie do. It's just that I personally can't lump MAGNETO in with the likes of LEX LUTHER or the JOKER. There is just soooooo much more to him. Even Stan Lee himself has been quoted as saying, "I've never thought of Magneto as a Villian." But, I absolutely respect your opinion, even tho i don't agree! ;) Talontd - 8/24/2009, 11:58 AM
	MetalHead:i actually see it from teabag's side because i agree with him! there are many more interesting characters that could be brought to the big screen and even though i hate every CBM Fox have ever made i would prefer that they spend their time on Deadpool (more interesting than Magneto) or bring back the X-Men even though they've [frick]ed the franchise up beyond recognition! joshw24 - 8/24/2009, 12:00 PM
	...and no, i wouldnt go and see it just like i didnt go the cinema to see the second FF movie or Punisher: War Zone because it was inevitable that both would be crap so i waited until they come down in price on blu-ray a year or more later! thats how little i care about seeing crap movies! joshw24 - 8/24/2009, 12:02 PM
	MetalHead@ im not asking people to agree with me that seems to be your thing by saying things like you dont understand why Xmen fans would be against seeing this movie, i was just replying to Talondt, i would of finished my view except as usual people cant except a differant view to there own, i dont need to give a negative reason so i can have your aproval, its just my preferance to see some more stories till the time comes where i am bo longer bored with Magneto....saying that i will go and see Magneto vs Gi-Joe..lol :P Talondt@ luv 4 ya man...i was just saying why ive continued this discussion...the lack of understanding for differant views.

	@ metalhead i'm not saying i don't want it made, just that i think its a stupid idea and i don't want to see it. i'm tired of seeing mags in the movies. if anyone else does, go right ahead, its not going to bother me either way. and i know this isn't X4, its magneto origins, my argument with apocalypse is just one of many explaining that im tired of magneto and want something new.

	Josh, I wasn't saying that no one agrees with teabag, I was responding to teabag's comment that people aren't trying to see it from that side if they are on the side that I am on. Based on reading your comments, you are coming off as a bit of a whiner on this topic, no offense. Come up with a negative impact on your life that this movie will have and I'll start considering your point. But until then, you have 2 options: don't see it or embrace it. Again, this is not effecting you or your life whatsoever. It's not your money that's being used to make it. It's not your time and effort being used to write and film it. And it's not preventing other movies from being made. So if you don't want to see it, fine. But there are plenty of others who would and it's not effecting you by being made. MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 12:13 PM
	its funny, because after the first one, they said mags was going to be in the 2nd, but that he was going to team up with the x-men. so i was like, okay, that could be cool. then it was announced that he was going to be the villain in the third, and it just pissed me off. come on, he's one villain of MANY in the x-universe. and i'll even admit, he's my favorite x-villain. but the way he's portrayed in the movies does his character no justice what so ever. so no, i'm not excited about a mags movie. CorndogBurglar - 8/24/2009, 12:18 PM
	InTylerWeTrust82, EXACTLY. I would also love to see Magneto "in action," as you put it. In my outline for X4-X6 (I posted it on here somewhere many months back) I had a huge Transformers-like battle scene in the city where Magneto (alongside the X-Men) is battling the Sentinels in the sky using cars, trucks, pieces of steel, etc., as weapons to blow right through the Sentinels' chests, ripping their heads from their bodies and having a massive battle with Sentinels being thrown into buildings, etc. That would be awesome.

I don't know, I just really thought he was done well, with the exception on the fact (like I said before) that they didn't come close to utilizing his powers. MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 12:22 PM

Do you have to see it? Is there some contract where you are committed to giving FOX $200 if it's released? The fact is that you are just whining, plain and simple. You don't have to see it if you don't want to. MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 12:25 PM

	InTylerWeTrust82, THAT is a fair statement. But that's not the complaint that all of these people are using. They aren't saying "I don't want a Magneto movie cause they'll F' him up." They're saying "I don't want a Magneto movie cause it would be boring." Now let's keep in mind, for starters, that we don't yet even know the plot. How can they be saying that it will be boring without even knowing what the plot will be? And also, they think it will be boring. Fine. That doesn't mean that everyone agrees. There's no harm in making this movie. I just don't see the need to be complaining about it being made. I can see the fear that it will be done wrong. But considering that as of this moment, we know nothing of the plot, how can everyone be so quick to bash it for being boring? MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 12:30 PM

	@ metalhead the whole holocaust thing and his back story were right. and maybe its just mckellan as magneto that i didn't like, but he just came off as a weakling in every way. i know he's old, but in the comics he has a certain presence about him that's totally lacking in the movies. so to answer your question, his story and everything were actually dead on, it was more like mckellan's portrayal of him...oh and he does seem way underpowered. for being one of my favorite comic villains, its pretty disappointing for him to be one of my least favorite parts from the movie. CorndogBurglar - 8/24/2009, 12:31 PM

	teabag, Here's the thing-- I'm not whining. I'm trying to prove 2 points: (1) Where is the harm in this movie being made? If someone doesn't want to see it, they don't have to. To me it would make more sense for people to be this vocal about movies NOT being made since it's out of our hands. (2) Just because some people think it will be boring doesn't mean we all will. I'm talking in defense of this movie. I'm of the belief that we should all be happy that these movies are being made. Now I'll also say that if it does end up sucking, feel free to voice your opinion by not seeing it. But we shouldn't be bashing the studios for trying things like this. I'm all for giving them the chance to fail as opposed to bashing them for trying. MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 12:35 PM

	THIS is basically Magneto's origin - does this really sound all that interesting!?! Magneto and his family are persecuted for being Jewish, and are shot by the Nazis and buried in a mass grave Eisenhardt manages to survive, only to be captured and sent to Auschwitz. While in Auschwitz, Eisenhardt reunites with a Roma girl named Magda, with whom he had fallen in love and with whom he escapes the prison camp. He and Magda marry several years later and a daughter, Anya, is born. After moving his family to the Soviet city of Vinnitsa, Magnus' daughter Anya is killed in a fire, while a mob of people prevents him from rescuing her. Enraged, the young Magneto's powers manifest uncontrollably, killing the mob and destroying a part of Vinnitsa. Magda is terrified and she flees, discovering months later she is pregnant again. Magda will give birth to the mutant twins Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch. As Magnus he meets Charles Xavier while working at a psychiatric hospital near Haifa, Israel. There, lengthy debates are held by the two regarding the consequences humanity faces with the rise of mutants, though neither reveals to the other that they both in fact possess mutant powers. However, they are forced to reveal their inherent abilities to one another, while facing Baron Von Strucker and HYDRA. Following the battle, Magnus (now dressed as Magneto) leaves, realizing that his and Xavier's views are incompatible, with a cache of hidden Nazi gold, which provides initial financing for his various enterprises. Now, does THAT sound like an interesting movie!? obviously they wouldnt follow this exactly but in all honesty this could be done in 20mins!!! joshw24 - 8/24/2009, 12:38 PM

	teabag, Like I've said, as far as Magneto in a potential X4 goes, if it were up to me I'd have him fighting with captured mutants against Genosha and gradually over the course of the next 3 films I'd have him aligning with the X-Men against Genosha/Sinister/Apocalypse. But I wouldn't have him as the primary antagonist like he has been in the past. And I'd also have these movies be 2 1/2 hours each so they would be able to dedicate enough time to characters like Sinister, Cameron Hodge, Apocalypse, etc., and still have time for Magneto without him taking away time for the others. To me, that's one thing that's great about the Magneto character-- he'll align himself with his arch enemy when necessary to battle the greater evil. MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 12:42 PM

	Josh, (To clarify, my tone isn't meant to be insulting and I'm trying to have a conversation with you.) You say you "think it's pretty obvious that you wont see the X-Men in a Magneto solo movie." You have nothing to base this on and you are hating on this movie based on guesses. That's why I think that we should all withhold judgment until at least we have some idea of the plot. And as far as your point goes, I strongly disagree and I do so from a business perspective. The more X-characters they can incorporate, the more buzz it will get. I'd expect to see Cyclops, Jean Grey (probably different actors) and others in this movie, as well as the first incarnation of the Brotherhood. Let's give these writers SOME credibility-- even they can't be dumb enough to think that a 2 hour movie of Magneto being at a concentration camp would be good. If I'm them I'm having the first 20 minutes devoted to that, the next 30 to the rest of his origin, including Xavier, and then the rest of the movie showing his hatred for mankind growing, his creation of the Brotherhood and his first battle with the X-Men. That, to me, is his origin and would make the most sense from a business perspective. MetalHead - 8/24/2009, 12:55 PM

	I want First Class!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But I want Magneto But I want Deadpool But I want Wolverine !!! I want CBMs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IronMarvel - 8/24/2009, 1:02 PM
	MetalHead: im not being rude either - i know that sometimes on here things that wouldnt sound rude if you were saying them saound rude when you read them, lol! you do make a very fair point and i WILL reserve judgement until there are more details! and i agree that the more X-Men characters they include the better the movie will do but look how that ended up in Wolverine! introducing Gambit in a movie set in the 70's (before his comic book counterpart was even born!) or what they did with Deadpool! THAT is why i feel so negatively toward this movie - i guess after seeing so many BAD Fox movies its hard to get excited! joshw24 - 8/24/2009, 1:06 PM
	yes he is tyler no doubt. undeadpool - 8/24/2009, 1:07 PM
	Michael Biehn is my second Cable choice, but he still isn't better than Russel. InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/24/2009, 1:09 PM
	This is what i would like to see in the next X-Men film (with the costumes!!) joshw24 - 8/24/2009, 1:13 PM
	I want the costumes to have personality for each character, instead of the same black leather suits again. InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/24/2009, 1:15 PM
