Everytime I watch X-men

Everytime I watch X-men, I often feel a little bit lonely cuz not many surrounding people see the philosophy behind. What they see is the extra-ordinary abilities of the characters, the fightings between between seemingly good and seemingly bad guys. No, actually it's not about good and bad. It's about being ordinary and inordinary. This is what distinguishes X-men and many other comics, science-fictions, ...

During my childhood, X-men was almost the only group of heroes I knew. Superman was single. Batman and Robin was just a couple. I didn't count Power-Rangers and its various versions for its weakness of individuality, and I couldn't remember them well. Cyclops, Storm and Magneto were my favorites then. And I didn't understand much the power of Xavier and didn't like Wolverine's rudeness. Actually, appearance and power were key factors: Cyclops was handsome, Storm was sexy and charming, Magneto looked powerful in his red coat and iron helmet.

Well, until they released X-men movie in 2000, I discovered the more interesting side of the story. While X-men in 2000 was about the hatre of mutants to ordinary people, X2 (2003) was about the extreme hatre from ordinary human beings. And I really liked it when the Brotherhood of Mutants by Magneto and X-men teamed up together. X-men : The Last Stands was kind of an extreme story with the final battle between two organizations of mutants, and the final result of destruction (Phoenix) versus self-recovery (Wolverine). X-men Origins: Wolverine is the story of a man looking for his origin, of true brotherhood between men. I thought X-men story would go on like that, talking about each character but producers pushed it back to its earliest stage with X-men: First class with a nice story about the long-gone friendship between Professor X and Magneto. Now I understand why Magneto and Professor X are the leaders of two contrary forces, fighting each other but never do anything harmful to each other. They once were friends.

As I said above, I think the true story of X-men is about being considered ordinary and inordinary. Being about mutant vs humanbeings is being about special and being about normal. It's just like being homosexual versus being, more popular, heterosexual. Being extra-talented, weird, and lonely versus being average, normal, and crowded. And more.

In a large scene, X-men story is so trendy as a part of what is happening around the world, or at least the entertainment world. Lady Gaga is singing songs for LGBT. Adam Lambert keeps freaky. Great cities and states allow gay marriage. More and more celecrities, artists, young people who have same-sex partners or who just want to live the way they were truly born.

Another interesting part of X-men is that even the mutants conflict with each other. They have different re-actions to the world. Some try to be accepted. Others revenge. In my point of view, especially after X-men First Class, Erik "Magneto" is not wrong at all. He just stands on the dark side. In fact, he's very ordinary human. He's aggressive. He wants the war. He's cruel. ... The normal people, at least in the movie, are just the same. They use wars, power, politics,... but still think they have justice. The only truly good man is seemingly Charles Xavier. But in this real world, how many people of that type are there? Not many. If given 1 minute, I just can think of Buddha, Jesus and Mother Teresa.

So, I don't expect any endings from the movie, just like from the similar "war" in the world. Life will just go on. Something gets better, something gets worse. Something will be fixed. Something will be destroyed.
