It's going to be B. Remember, X2 had a ton of characters too.

Professor X
Wolverine
Magneto
Storm
Jean Grey
Cyclops
Rogue
Mystique
General Stryker
Nightcrawler
Senator Kelly
Pyro
Iceman
Deathstrike
Kitty Pryde
Jubilee
Siryn
Colossus
Sebastian Shaw
Hank McCoy
Mastermind (Jason 143)

All those people were in the movie, but a ton of those people were basically cameos. And that's not even counting characters like the Drakes, the President, so on and so forth. (Or characters like Gambit, who had scenes shot, but deleted)

I imagine that we'll get, like, a glimpse inside the facility where Omega Red is being created, just as a tease for potential sequels. Ditto for Trask. He'll be on TV talking about Project Wideawake, or maybe he's leaving a meeting with the President when Mystique/Kelly is on her/his way in.
