Probably my favorite character in recent X Men comics is Emma Frost. Hmmm maybe now you can see why I wasnt a big fan of First Class. Whoever thought January Jones would make a good Emma Frost should be fired, right now! She wasnt the Emma Frost I was hoping for I even prefer the Emma Frost in the Wolverine film to be honest. I can practically see the casting process for January Jones right now. I bet it went a little something like this Whos that blonde chick in Mad Men who is just about passable as an actress? January Jones Mad Men is set in the 60s right? Uh huh! First Class is set in the 60s too. You think shell wanna do a movie? Would she even turn down a role? You get what Im saying. It was lazy casting, and Emma Frost deserves better A LOT better. Couldnt they cast a bigger, more talented actress, Charlize Theron, Cate Blanchett or how about Sarah Michelle Geller shes not doing anything lately and has major geek cred (plus she can pull off threatening a lot more convincingly than Jones). Either recast her, or keep her out of the sequel all together. Also, why oh why is that boy from Skins and About a Boy Beast? Wasnt Beast supposed to be super beefy? And Lucas Till, otherwise known as that boy in the Hannah Montana Movie as Havok really? I could go on and on. And although I know how much everyone just loves the Fassbender, and Ill even admit that he is mostly a very good actor, what accent was he trying to mimic though the entire film? English, Irish make up your mind!!! But The Last Stand cast Kelsey Grammer (Sideshow Bob, Frasier Crane) as Beast- best casting ever, and the at that point not very well known Ellen Page (pre-Juno) as Kitty Pryde. Pretty good decisions no?
