^^ That's exactly what I meant, thanks Christopher. I really want to see this movie now and I'm not resigned to the fact that none of these movies seem to be getting novelizations which sucks.
X-MEN: FIRST CLASS (Casting, Rumors, Pics till release)
- Thread starter Obiwanshinobi
- Start date
No, I understood that it was a reference to Wolverine's comic book (and animated X-Men) outfit. Admiral's 'in-universe' explanation is something I wouldn't have thought of.
I know it was brief but did my statement not put it into context enough? It was only 2 posts after you inquired. Just wondering but glad you "get" the possibility of it now.
Dude, they all looked obviously photo-shopped!
At least it is visually interesting as opposed to X-Men Origins: Wolverine's poster. That one just screams "We have five minutes; slap something together!"
^ Yep.
I'm sure, at the time, Cyclops' joke was a reference to Wolverine's comic-book outfit. I doubt Singer and company knew in the back of their heads that they would be making a prequel several years later with the X-Men wearing yellow spandex.
Oh he knew....he knew...
Like Christopher said I was meaning my explanation to be an in-universe joke. There's no reason why Scott wouldn't have worn the old uniforms 
Wow this has gotten off track a bit lol.

It was. My comment was meant as a joke too though that no one seems to get lol.
Is anybody else getting a sense of deja vu? 
Sorry, CC, I think I missed your comment in the sea of others, but thanks for clarifying.

Probably was remember FOX was also running the 90s animated series about that time.
Didn't you hear? Sense of humor is not allowed on the Trek BBS.
I missed the memo.
I like the new uniforms.
The new International trailer with some of the more action bits is now on their facebook

Your comment works as a pretty good piece of retconning! At the time of X-Men's release, it clearly did refer to Wolvie's comic strip outfit but now on the release of this movie, it applies to the First Class uniforms too.
