Nay-sayers shut up.

I haven't enjoyed a movie this much in a long time. AND I'm a long time fan of the comic books.
When you're turning 60 years of comic books into three two-hour movies, you can't stick steadfast to the events and relationships in the comics. You have to make the movies make sense within themselves. And they did.
If you're only complaints about the movie are how they differ from they comic books, then I think you have nothing to complain about.
If you look closer, they have a lot of connections to the comics under the surface. That crazy girl that has super-speed and can detect mutants who's in Magneto's brotherhood? When I first saw her, I was like that's a really random combination of powers. Then I realized that she's a combination of Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch, the siblings that were in Magneto's original Brotherhood of Evil Mutants in the comics.
Yes, Juggernaut wasn't actually a mutant, he got his power from the stone, and yes, he was Prof. X's half-brother in the comics. SO WHAT?!?! If you let that ruin it so that you didn't crack up when he said "I'm the Juggernaut, Bitch!" then you shot yourself in the foot when you came into the movie.
If you're still going into ANY movie adaptation of a piece of literature, whether it be novel, graphic novel, or comic book, and expecting it to stick to what you read, you are dumb.
