Yes, there are a lot of cast members. But Phoenix looks cool, waking up and blowing the door away with her uber-powers (I always liked her in the cartoon--so much conflict!).

But the voice-over by Professor X seemed to be saying that this was the last stand, the final conflict. So is this going to be the last movie?

I doubt that. It's been a huge money-making franchise.

I like it, and I like seeing Colossus again--it would be nice if he joined the main group, though it's already getting unwieldy. I don't really like Juggernaught though--I can see that I might, but with the few glimpses we've had so far I just didn't get dig his look.

Looking over it again, I saw--

Angel, Prof. X, Magneto, Mystique, Juggernaut, Cyclops, Wolverine, Pheonix, Storm, Iceman, Rogue, Beast, Jubilee, Kitty Pryde, Colossus, Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver, Pyro, and a guy I think might be Mastermind.

That is a lot of people to keep straight and there are still others. I'm not sure who the telekinetic kid with the paper-airplanes is suppose to be. Probably X-Kid.

And there is also suppose to be Omega-Red, Leech, M, Multiple Man, Callisto, Sirryn, and Emma Frost. There are also a lot of people listed on IMDB in the cast but no part is specified.

Whoa, I missed Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver--and I watched it frame by frame. Time to watch it again!

[edit]
I still don't see them, or Jubilee, but I do see what I'm pretty sure is a fastball special. There's also a scene with laser fire coming in at a pretty high angle--Sentinels?

I looked again, frame by frame. There was a girl standing right of Magneto in one shot. She was dressed all in scarlet so I asssumed it was Wanda. But looking again, it is actually Phoenix. Sorry.

Jubilee is front and center in the classroom.

I wondered if that might have been who you were looking at. It's kind of odd that they put Phoenix in scarlet, but I suppose it works with the imagery--and if they don't include Scarlet Witch, then the color is up for grabs.

It's really pissing me off that I appear to be the only one that trailer won't work for.

Have you installed the newest version of Quicktime?

I ran the updater too, and it didn't work. See, here's the trick: the updater just updates your current version. It doesn't actually upgrade you to the new version. So go get the new Quicktime from Apple.

I watched the trailer, in super-laggy-mode. Stupid quicktime ;(

It looks about what I'm expecting. Here's hoping the new director keeps it as subtle and well done as X2.

If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)
