Via lonelywalker: Patrick Stewart, Nicholas Hoult, Hugh Jackman, Ellen Page and Peter Dinklage get asked the "fuck, marry, kill" question about Wolverine, Charles Xavier and Beast/Hank McCoy. Their answers are golden, all of them. (Also not spoilery for the new movie, so you can watch, though if you're a European like me, you should employ Tunnelbear to trick the website into letting you). I'm very glad Patrick Stewart seems to agree with lonelywalker and myself about the Charles/Hank potential, sort of, but I have say, Peter Dinklage's final reply absolutey wins. In case the embedding doesn't work, the direct link is here.

This cheers me up greatly, and I did start my day with the first world problem downer of realising that a) getting to watch a new fannish movie early means you can't yet talk with many people about it, and b) I care about the characters, and the downside of this is that reading someone hate on them hurts. This is the advantage of following media like, say, Game of Thrones where I have no emotional investment and can read everyone else getting upset without feeling the slightest urge to defend anyone.

I promise I will squee with you tomorrow after I finally see it! (Normally I would have gone by now, but my friends can't until tomorrow, and I decided that I would wait and see it in company. If only so there is someone there to kick me if my high-pitched noises of glee become too loud ...) I am avoiding spoilers like the plague, but I gather that critics and fans alike seem to be enjoying it.

I really meant to write some movieverse Charles/Hank after First Class (other than a throwaway mention in a story in which Beast doesn't appear) as it has long been near the top of my list of 'pairings that would actually be a good idea.' And now clearly somebody now needs to write about Charles brushing Hank *g*.

Let's just say unspoilery Days of future Past will provide you with ample material for Charles/Hank - actually, Charles in general.:) But most of all on Charles & Raven!

Yaaaaaaaay!

Just five minutes ago I finished rewatching First Class in anticipation of tomorrow, and was reminded again what a brilliant addition to the universe Charles & Raven is.

It really is. I want all the siblings stories of the world after this one even more than after the first one.

Now I have finally seen it and understand why. My heart grew three sizes and then melted. Then I came home and wrote a ludicrously long post about all the things I loved.

Now off to read other people's reactions ...
