X-MEN: FIRST CLASS (2011) - FULL WATCHALONG (Patreon)

MEMBER EXCLUSIVE

The X-Men franchise kicks off a brand new era on the channel, and we are doing things a little differently! We are diving into X-Men: First Class (2011) to launch our full mutant marathon, starting at the beginning of the timeline before jumping into the original trilogy that started it all. This is Sam’s very first time experiencing the origins of Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr, and seeing how Matthew Vaughn reinvented the franchise with James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender makes for an incredible ride. From the tragic opening in Poland to the intense Cuban Missile Crisis finale, this prequel sets the bar for what mutant storytelling can be.

Join Kristian Harloff and Sam as they react, discuss, and break down every major moment from X-Men: First Class. Watch Sam discover the origins of Magneto, the birth of the X-Men, the tragedy of Mystique’s journey, and one of the greatest cameos in comic book movie history. Whether you're revisiting the beginnings of the modern mutant cinematic universe or watching Sam experience the tension between Xavier and Magneto for the first time in our unique watch order, this watchalong reaction is packed with insight, humor, and pure geek passion.
