David Bentley has an update based on a Production Weekly update and a script he’s seen: ‘Here is the official synopsis for the movie, as listed by subscription trade mag Production Weekly: ‘The original X-Men film began with a prologue that showed the character as a child being led to a concentration camp by Nazis and that is the period in which the Magneto film will take place. Magnetic properties: With all the attention on the Marvel Studios’ slate of projects ( Captain America, Thor, the Avengers and another Iron Man film) there hasn’t been much talk about ‘ X-Men Origins: Magneto,’ the Sony project that is still percolating out there. But when the basic training was over, the camp newspaper editor came by with his assistant and asked if I’d be willing to come on their staff and do artwork, and do cartoons and so forth.

The list also says he’s read every ‘Harry Potter’ novel, that he has eaten roasted grasshopper, he benches 200 pounds and that he once had a pet ape named Tata. Is he a Steve Ditko fan or more of a Todd McFarlane man? Does he prefer the black suit or classic red-and blue Spidey? Does the future first lady get upset when he lingers too long on the Red Sonja issues of Conan? Can he recite the ‘crush your enemies’ speech from the Conan movie? So much to know. Swain has a tally called ‘ Barack Obama: The 50 facts you might not know,’ and right there at the very top of the list it says: ‘He collects Spider-Man and Conan the Barbarian comics.’ Wow, we need more information here.
