Yeah, it's a joke.
Teenage angst isn't exactly foreign to X-Men, in any event.

The internet has been ripping them and deservedly so. They're awful.
Which might be veiled in truth.I think Vaughn was joking about the Twilight comment.
Exactly. Not that the posters have to be specific to the year(s) the film takes place but I'd have tried to incorporate just that.^ This is what I think they should be doing with their poster designs. Be inspired by the period and design something from the era. The logo seemed to take advantage of that. I don't see why the rest of the posters can't either instead of getting boring, generic crap and bad photoshopped art.

The track record for period superhero flicks is abysmal...

Really? That doesn't bode well for Captain America, then.
What period superhero films have there been, though? The main ones that come to mind are The Incredibles, which was very successful, and Watchmen, which was less so. Then there was The Phantom and The Shadow back in the '90s, though the Shadow's more a pulp hero than a superhero. Other than that... does Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow count?

I'm thinking The Phantom, The Shadow, Sky Captain, The Rocketeer . . . .
And, yeah, technically, two of those weren't based on comic books, but I'm not sure that general audiences really split those hairs. They were all old-timey superhero movies.
And, yeah, I'm curious to see if CAPTAIN AMERICA makes it work.
For real.Photoshop is the worst thing to happen to movie posters. Get a real artist to do them. Like Drew Struzan. I can't stand photoshop book covers, let alone movie posters.
