Matthew Vaughn Definitely Directing 'X-Men: First Class' Sequel
Ever since the release of 'X-Men: First Class' last summer, many of us (myself included) have been hoping and clamoring for the return of director Matthew Vaughn, but with his sights set on helming sequels to his films 'Stardust' and 'Kick-Ass,' the prospect of him returning to the X-Men universe seemed bleak. Now, however, it looks like Vaughn is in fact returning to direct the followup to the massively successful X-Men reboot. The studio had already locked down the returns of Bryan Singer as producer as well as actors Michael Fassbender (Magneto) and Jennifer Lawrence (Mystique). The script for the sequel is to be penned by Simon Kinberg ('X-Men: The Last Stand,' 'Sherlock Holmes') though it is far too early in the process for any plot details to have come to light.
Obviously, this news has become a bit of mixed bag with the revelation of who would be writing the script. The first two X-Men films were pretty damn good, the second arguably better than the first, but the weakness of the third installment, the one written by Kinberg, was recognized and decried by both critics and fans alike. I won't deny that the inclusion of Kinberg on this project does somewhat delude my excitement about Vaughn returning to the series. I loved 'X-Men: First Class' and I am very much looking forward to what Vaughn does with a sequel. I don't think Kinberg's involvement is necessarily the death knell for this project, but it certainly isn't encouraging. Hopefully, since Vaughn is a far better director than 'X-Men: The Last Stand's Brett Ratner, he'll be able to take whatever script he is given and turn it into something great.
So, where do you guys stand? Excited Vaughn is back? Lost all confidence because of the return of Kinberg?

Ugh... X-Men III and Sherlock Holmes... I didn't really like either movie. That third X-Men suck balls(and not in a good way) and Sherlock was just Meh for me. I really liked X-Men First Class. I hope he doesn't wreck the franchise. >_/p>

Vaughn seems to always have a heavy hand in his movies' scripts. Also, he's quickly becoming one of my favorite genre directors.
And say what you want, but First Class is the best X Men movie to date. The first two were good for the time, but they've aged a lot.

So long as they confirm James McAvoy as Xavier I think it should be fine. Matt really praised working with James and Michael, all of them giving each other input and having good chemistry. Matt Vaughn is the director not Kinberg.

Very happy that Vaughn is coming back, his visual sense is a big part of what allowed this movie to give it that flare that was lacking in the other ones, plus First Class was cool. They just need a better script this time, or at least one with less shitty, groan worthy lines.

NERDGASM!!!
But Yes I Echo MIke in saying there should be a new writer
Joss Whedon anyone. Or the dude from Chronicle. The most rencet trailer has me thinking that is actually going to be the best of the found film footage. I mean its looking like an American Troll Hunter.

Simon Kinberg was one of the original screenwriters, and as previously mentioned a producer, of First Class, so CTFO people and try not to read to much into this.
