Yet Another X-Men: First Class update

You might as well get used to these.

The screenwriters have been announced as Zack Stentz and Ashley Edward Miller. If you haven't heard of them, neither has anyone else. Their credits include a few episodes of Andromeda, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, and Fringe along with the Thor movie.

This does not inspire confidence.

Aren't screenwriters fairly cheap? Do you really have to pinch pennies by hiring TV people?

I guess they could be good. I'd certainly take all of those jobs... but where is Michael Chabon or Joss Whedon or William Goldman... you know, the gifted screenwriters that have written superhero material before? Or David Goyer?

Throw me a bone here.
