X-Men: First Class, the latest X Men film, is releasing its trailer today on Facebook. It’s Facebook group is facebook.com/xmenmovies.
The latest X-Men movie goes back to when Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr first developed their powers. They meet at Oxford University and become great friends.

As predicted, it is now on YouTube, a very short time after the Facebook exclusive release.

That’s enough about the film though. What is interesting for us is that Twentieth Century Fox have decided to give Facebook Fans the first view of the trailer.
“Like Us For Exclusive Updates”
Facebook is now 7 years old, but the Like button is still relatively new. It is interesting to see how different people are making use of it. For Twentieth Century Fox it is a cunning way to reach out to many fans as they essentially get a bunch of people (1,729,122 and counting) on to their mailing lists, and all they give in return is a sneak peek at a trailer that will be on general release within a few days, and probably on YouTube in high-def by dinner time tonight.
1,729,122 fans already for a film due to be released in June. Wow. I would like some of that action.
The power of social media.
