Srs Question Is Srs ("X-Men")

[gokuma]

When you hear "Charles Xavier", the first image that flashes through your mind is

   OR  

And when you hear "Erik Lehnsherr" (/Magneto) do you think about this guy

  OR  

In my case, comicverse (so - white-haired but not necessarily shirtless) Magneto is definitely my first association. When I read fics or prompts this version of Erik is the one that comes to my mind and usually stays there (even if "brown eyes" or "sharky teeth" are mentioned XD). As far as Charles is concerned, his comicverse version is also the first, but then my imagination does a backflip, shows movieverse!Xavier and stays inbetween James McAvoy and comicverse!Charles (which is kinda tricky, 'cause these two guys aren't similar at all) :D

widzę, że to jednak ciezki przypadek fangirlizmu, Wilk :D mnie się te imiona definitywnie kojarzą z komiksowymi wersjami, może jednak się wezmę i obejrzę film? :D *ściąga*

when I hear Xavier I have in my mind McAvoy, but its mixed, since I kinda know he`ll become baldie, and on a wheelchair, still, McAvoy created great personality to him I kinda fell for.
Magneto, hm, its mixed in my head, Fassbender is great, no questions asked, but Magneto is so much more than just sharly smiles and square jaws, I have ahrd time to cut him from his comicbooc prototype.

So iin my case its half/half situation. Comicbook Charles and comicbooc Magneto wouldnt move my imagination without their movie and thus actors :)
Very srs questions need srs answers :D

Early X-men movies are what made me think of Xavier and Magneto so for me Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen come to mindXD
But I think that in a very short time I might get used to McAvoy and Fassbender, cos I'm seriously crushing on them these days, Michael Fassbender specially. *swoons*

In both cases comic!verse. Even when I read fics for First Class, I have to remind myself that I'm reading movie fanfic and not comicbook fanfic, because at first I keep picturing Magneto and avier from comic books XDDDD
