when casting the various X-Peeps, I’d go with names for Xavier and Magneto

I’m listening to some classic Garbage right now, as I let YouTube curate a playlist for me based on my searches... mainly, I just need my headphones on to drown out any coworkers talking about that abortion of a debate last night.

Here, you can push it out of your head with this:

Sure, Evans was lead in some films, but Not Another Teen Movie is kind of a cult film, and the F4 movies, despite making enough money to make two of them, were critical flops.
