X-Men: First Class : Debut Screen Shots

Anyone who knows me well, knows I've been an X-Geek since primary school. I was okay with the first film, loved the second, am increasingly bothered by the third during subsequent viewings, and think Wolverine was a bit of a waste.

I had hope for this prequel until I started seeing pics of the cast in costume. I'm disappointed to say the least. Except for this pic:

I had forgotten that Kevin Bacon would be portraying Sebastian Shaw. How cool is that? And I had no idea January Jones would be so very yummy in the role of Emma Frost. The Hellfire Club. On the big screen. Wicked.

I wonder if this will be yet another comic-book film where the villains steal the show.
