Damn You, Inception!
Tue, August 3, 2010 
Matthew Vaughn tells the Los Angeles Times he like totally had an idea for X-Men: First Class not unlike Inception:
"I saw 'Inception,' which I loved. But my heart sank when I saw that a few of the ideas we had were up [on the screen]. So it's either leave it in and look as if you're copying or change things. We completely ripped out about 12 pages of the script and the storyboards."
The scene in question involved a "dream-space combat" harkening back to the comics with the young Professor X (here played by James McAvoy) and others with "spinning rooms and other physics-bending imagery."
Why even come clean about this prior to filming commencing? Maybe because you're trying to add even more nerd-cred to your prequel/reboot/whatever? Buddy, you don't need that at this point. The more we hear about it, the better it sounds.
