Trailer | Revenge of the Nerds (X-Men: First Class)

So I’m coming to terms with the fact that I’m not a daily blog type of writer. I just can not sit, and write daily. I can’t think about writing after thinking about tons of other crap the whole day.

To cheer myself up I decided to watch this……

This looks epic! I’m not sure of origin of the script (that’s another blog), but from the looks of it the Producers are trying to re-boot the X-Men franchise. I don’t blame them. X-Men: Last Stand was a weak final installment of the recent Trilogy started by Bryan Singer (Who is Producing X-Men: First Class).

Considering trailers are made to make you WANT to see a film, it’ll be interesting to see how the movie does. So far I like it.

I had a quick conversation with a friend earlier in the week about how all the things people used to make fun of nerds for doing (Reading Comic Books, Playing Video Games, etc…) are all BIG business now. As of 2009 video game sales reaches as much as $10 billion, and comic books / graphic novels reached over $400 million. It’s no wonder Hollywood has been looking for more original content in these two industries. Who wouldn’t when you already have a built in fan base.

Unless you get it completely wrong……

Until next time.
