I wouldn't say everything other than Fassbender and McAvoy was bad, but I do think that most of the problems with the movie would've been solved if they had called it "X-Men Origins: Magneto".

Yeah, I can agree with that. My biggest complaint was that for a movie called 'First Class,' the first class wasn't that big a thing. I enjoyed the pulling of C-list mutants from the comics, but the fact that they were C-listers meant that they were actually just mimicking the 'standard' first class, rather than being their own characters because the writers didn't know what their characterization was.

And it's a shame, because there were some interesting things that they could have done with them that just didn't happen because the movie was so much Magneto's story. It made me wish that they would have saved Magneto's turn for a sequel story so that this movie could have focused more on the characters it did have.

I totally agree, though I wish they'd made this movie about Magneto and Xavier's origins and meeting each other, then the next one about the beginnings of the X-Men and the first X0Men team. I really wanted to like this one, but it felt like they tried to do way too much in one film, between Erik's backstory, Erik and Charles' relationship, and the formation of the first X-Men team (add to that the endless Cuban Missile Crisis plotting), all of which could have easily been broken up into two movies.

I thought they were making another Origins movie with Magneto as the main focus. D:

That was the idea at first, but production kept being pushed back and then Bryan Singer joined the First Class project as a writer and added elements of what would've been the Magneto spin-off. Fox decided to go with that and scrap Magneto's solo movie.
