BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Easter Eggs For X-Men: First Class. Did You Spot Them?

"X-Men: First Class" hits theaters this weekend, and like all good comic book movies, it's packed full of nods to its comic book source material and the existing X-Men movie universe. Via splashpage.

If you have seen the movie were you able to spot the Easter eggs? Did you SPOT THAT MUTANT? Or See the two Cameos in the film?


I got details on a few Easter eggs you don't want to get left out on.




WILLIAM STRYKER, SR.
In 2003's "X2," Brian Cox played William Stryker, a government agent on a quest to eradicate all mutants. In "X-Men: First Class," we're introduced to his father, William Stryker, Sr. Playing the role is actor Don Creech, and there's a mention of the younger William Stryker during a pivotal scene in the film.

SPOT THAT MUTANT!
When Charles Xavier tries out Cerebro for the first time, he scans the world for mutants to make contact with. At one point, his search pauses on a dark-skinned girl with bright white hair. Could it be the weather-controlling mutant? What about the other young mutants his search pans over?

"WE'RE BROTHERS..."
Late in the film, Magneto refers to the mutants who side with him as his "brothers" — which could easily be interpreted as a nod to "The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants," the group he eventually forms to oppose the X-Men.

MYSTERY CAMEO #1
A character everyone's been asking about makes a brief but memorable appearance at one point in the film, and though the details have already been making the rounds online, I'll leave this one for you to find on your own. Trust me: you won't miss it.

MYSTERY CAMEO #2
In what might be an even more surprising cameo, there's a nice nod to one of the actresses who played a big role in the original "X-Men" franchise. You'll have to keep an eye out for this one, but it's worth it.

And there you have it, folks: Five elements to look for in "X-Men: First Class" when you head to the theaters this weekend. There are definitely more of them in the film, so make sure to let me know what you find!

Movie Review: #Vacation

Vacation makes me want to take a STAY-cation. Review by Matt Cummings It's not too often that a movie makes me wish film never existed, yet her I am ready to give the newest Vacation all the hate it deserves. And hate on it I will. Grown-up Rusty (Ed Helms) is stuck in a dull marriage to Debbie (Christina Applegate), who's been forced year after year to spend vacation with her family at a cabin in Michigan. When the overly optimistic Rusty realizes his family needs a change, he packs them up for a trip to Walley World, the site of his greatest trip as a teen. But soon, his family begins to encounter difficulties and flat-out disasters that could end their road trip and return Rusty's marriage back to square one. It might surprise our readers to know that someone from our team actually considered walking out of Vacation , and we get to see these films for free. That's how bad our experience became as we sat mesmerized by its 99 minutes of ineptit...

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim...
