I loved the sneaks over the characters old and new. Its looks really good and gives a feeling that we are up for a treat...still there would be some franchise fatigue. I do hope that this one increases over Wolverine.

The reviews have been good but I still feel that franchise fatigue and lack of female appeal will hurt its opening weekend.

Maybe good wom will help it somewhat. However, I doubt it as X1 and X2 arguably had good wom but were frontloaded.

New T.v Spot - http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=77854.

Now this is what I call great marketing. No matter how much this movie makes OW you can't say Fox didn't work their asses off promoting it. I am actually feeling a 70+ opening afterall.

Wow Amazing spot....If they do this well in marketing, this can turn out to be a huge success even with strong competition and might as well make $180m

Earlier today I got to watch Matthew Vaughn’s X-Men: First Class. While we’re not allowed to write a review, we’ve been given permission to write our initial thoughts.

If you were nervous the latest chapter in the X-Men franchise might disappoint, I’m happy to report it’s a huge home-run. Everything from the great script to the awesome performances by the entire cast (with special mention to James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender) makes this X-Men film my favorite in the franchise. Also, the film is loaded with incredible action and a ton of Easter Eggs for the fans. Even the sets and costumes are great. Trust me, as soon as the movie is over, you’re going to wish the next chapter was coming out next week. Hit the jump for more.

I'm IN

I never said I joined this club? Whoops. I've been campaigning for 200m+ for weeks and would have joined if I hadn't thought I had previously.

Exactly. If they don't know how to behave, and feel OK offending others, they get their ass kicked, so they'll think next time before opening their rotten mouths.

When actual reputable critics review it, unlike sites like CinemaBlend or IGN or HitFlix, it will go down..

Final prediction before tracking - $81M - $220M. Stiff competition will prevent it from becoming the highest grossing X-Men movie. Still have have far better legs than the last two sequels.
