>According to Simon Kinberg, this will contain more mass destruction than any of the previous X-Men films. Kinberg states: "We've spent the most time talking about creating a character that's the most powerful mutant villain that we've seen in the X-Men movies so far, more powerful than Magneto or the Phoenix! The kind of scope and scale we're talking about is like a disaster movie featuring an extinction-level event. We're talking Michael Bay/Roland Emmerich-style moviemaking, which you've never seen in an X-Men movie, or any superhero movie."
Are you hyped for Apocalypse yet?
>>82382838
I want to be but the series is way past its prime, DoFP was a half-assed reboot, but it really needs a proper rebooting to keep up with the rival modern Super hero universes.
>Are you hyped for Apocalypse yet?
>Singer
>moon
Nope.
I'm rather burnt out on the whole 'mass destruction' thing.
>>82382859
No it doesn't. You just want it to be exactly like the MCU, when in reality this franchise has and more consistent quality and higher stakes.
>FOXmen
not even once
>Michael Bay-style moviemaking
Is this supposed to make me want to see the movie?
>>82382859
This.
First Class made me believe we were in the clear. Then as much as I love DOFP storyline and we finally got to see Sunspot, Warpath and Blink, it threw us back into the old storyline.
Nope.
Becuase here's the thing. They can kill off the entire continental US, but I know JLaw is surviving this movie so I don't give a shit.
"Stakes" aren't determined by collateral damage. They're determined by characterization. And the X-men movie franchise is rather lacking on them, especially since the number of characters that get focus at all can be counted on one hand.
>>82382907
>more consistent quality
Yeah because more than half the movies have been shit.
>higher stakes
That sure makes me give a damn about newly introduced characters that receive next to no characterization.
>>82382859
they should have stuck with what they had created in Xmen first class instead of shitting all over it with time travel garbage in order force patrick stewart and ian mckellan back into the movies.
>>82382838
>We're talking Michael Bay/Roland Emmerich-style moviemaking
No.
I want Bryan Singer to fuck off and die. I don't like my X-Men, because they wear tactishit gear and have the MC being Professor fucking X! I want MY FUCKING X-MEN!

not that anon but, only x-men 3 can be considered the shitty one cause the rest are quality as maybe theyre showing their age but regardless still have powerful themes and are still watchable compared to mcu's movie of the week quality to them.
I can't speak for anyone else, but I am not looking for power levels or destruction porn in my X-Men. This blurb is killing any last amounts of hype I had for this movie.

He never said that.
For all you know he's really looking forward to the DC Slow March to Oblivion.
>>82382952
She's not doing any more X-movies. Her contract runs out with this one and they can't afford to re-sign her at her current rates.
The only reason they even had Halle Berry in the last one was because they signed her before she won her Oscar, and she's living on tv money now.
>>82383959
>Dead Jubilee
This is the worst crime.
>>82383986
i know youre baiting but im not counting wolverine origins just straight x-men movies so all xmen movies are 95% above youre shitty rom-com mcu movies.....and you know it
Where is this dead Jubilee coming from?
Is it because she's barely in any of the promo stuff?
>>82382838
>The kind of scope and scale we're talking about is like a disaster movie featuring an extinction-level event. We're talking Michael Bay/Roland Emmerich-style moviemaking, which you've never seen in an X-Men movie, or any superhero movie."
Ummm:
https://youtu.be/naJT1IhTUQA?t=152
>>82384128
Because she's fucking dead. Angel is gonna slaughter the shit out of her, and probably rape her while making you watch.
why does it look so cheap?
>>82382838
>We're talking Michael Bay/Roland Emmerich-style moviemaking, which you've never seen in an X-Men movie, or any superhero movie."
And this is supposed to get me excited?
>>82384128
Synger wants to use the same mutants over and over. Remember all those First Class mutants he killed off-screen? This time he's putting mooks in the movie to be killed on-screen by Pockylips and his horsemen.
>>82384258
I don't know. The effects looked better 16 years ago. Maybe they stopped trying because they know it'll make money either way?
>whaohhh is that a major continental landmark being destroyed? This movie is fucking rad!
I want this trend to end right now
>>82384258
Because black super suits in an age where Spider-Man, Captain America, Iron Man, Vision, and others can somehow all exist in a mostly serious superhero movie. And that's not even getting into the Glamgardians or the Hulk.
>>82384277
Just goes to show how out of touch Hollywood is with Superheroes. They equate "super hero" to "saving the world from destruction" and "action-comedy".
I just can't get excited for this film. I mean, we're gonna get Cyclops, Jean, Storm and Nightcrawler as the face again? Would it kill them to actually mix up the main lineup?
>>82384355
Armageddon II: Apocalypse
>>82384401
Vaughn did it, but I guess Singer can't deal.
>>82384377
>quippy TV movie
>mostly serious
Yeah, no.
>>82382838
Man, I liked the DOFP and even more, First Class, but the only thing in this movie I can bring myself to care about is Apocalypse. And that is mostly because he is played by Oscar Isaac. This movie just looks like bad. I have no hope for this turnout out good, I just hope we get some cool Apocalypse moments.
Does anyone even thing that there will exist some of the semi-interesting moral dilemmas that were there before? With Four Horsemen, it's almost always "I feel this way"
"Oh dang, I sure messed up, better become a good guy".
The DOFP trailers looked like shit too so I'm not worried right now. Oscar Isaac is giving me real hope, at this point I'll watch him in anything.
>>82384537
Pretty sure they will all have to unite to eventually defeat Apocalypse.
Then at the end we'll get a tease of Evil Prof X or Onslaught.
>>82384377
Literally this, it's like their scared of making a superhero movie
>get handed the X-men
>what type of costumes should we give them?
>paint it all black! Lucius
>>82384568
>Oscar Isaac is giving me real hope, at this point I'll watch him in anything.
I mean, sure, he is cool and all, but is he really worth the ticked of admission? I see him as a bonus, not carrying the entire movie.
>The DOFP trailers looked like shit too so I'm not worried right now
Really? There was this one that I felt had some emotion in it and I totally liked it.
>>82384600
Yeah, that is the worst thing about the movie, almost everything is so obvious that it just doesn't feel like anything _can_ go wrong. It's like Wolverine fighting some random thugs with knives.
>Then at the end we'll get a tease of Evil Prof X or Onslaught.
If that was true, I'd just never watch an X Men movie again
>>82383949
I'm right there with you especially since like, what are they going to do? Kill Xavier? They already did that. Kill Jean agian? Cyclops? They don't have the balls to kill off anybody for good. Am I really supposed to care if they kill a bunch of extras in the background? Really? We already got a bad future in DoFP where they did that
>>82382838
bueno.
I am already hyped, so nothing changes.
This is going to be a very feelsy movie with a load of genocide
>>82384258
It's FOX.
>>82384338
They're the same effects from 16 years ago. The only expense the studio will have been prepared to make on them since then would be porting old effects to new software, which is like a couple of weeks over 16 years at best, probably for one poor bastard who isn't paid enough.

I like the Singer-verse and I liked DOFP a lot. I'm willing to give them a chance even with the mediocre trailers.
Then again I don't have the white-hot rage for JLaw that 99% of 4chan does, so my reaction to Mystique as team leader is more of a "meh" and a shrug rather then REEEEEEEEEEEE.
>>82382952
She is moving to MCU
hAHAHAHA, for once, the punishment fits the crime
>>82382838
yea finally we get that scene where katniss sucks some D and gets butt fucked.
i watched all of mockingjay part 2 only to find it wasnt in the damn movie
>>82384100
your mistake was in treating mcu drone seriously
>>82384128
There was a leak on /co/ from a Fox Employee about a month ago, which detailed the plot and general stuff. According to him:Jubilee and Havok die when Apocalypse comes to the mansion to grab Xavier.
Plus he spoke about Magneto's family being killed before the latest trailer came out where we found out he had a family so I'm inclined to believe that it's true.
>>82384609
More like they're disgusted of making a superhero movie.
Instead of embracing the superhero genre they try to pass it as a serious action drama.
>>82382907
>more consistant quality
LOL. No. Literally 50% of the entries in the franchise are total shit.

Magneto moving to Poland, having family, and having his family killed by a mob, was known long before the first teaser.
Still, it's possible that havok and jubes will be killed
>>82384802
If they are a total shit, that would mean that civil war will be irredeemable garbage
Going by your taste
>>82384847
>Magneto moving to Poland, having family, and having his family killed by a mob
Who the hell thought this was okay?
>>82384758
only 4chan is obsessing over Jlaw, anywhere else no one gives a fuck
>>82384758
>I'm willing to give them a chance even with the mediocre trailers
>no white-hot rage for JLaw
Yeah, we seem to agree on this completely, just the benefit of the doubt on your side. JLaw is completely alright, and Mystique is an interesting character, but there is a lot more we can see in our peripheral, so seeing her utilized ticks me off mostly because of the unutilized chances nearby.
>>82384801
which makes perfect sense, since X-Men were always anti-cape.

>>82384967
Like, conceptually it's fine, but the timing of it just doesn't make sense.
>>82384847
Havok has been a dead man walking long before they shot a single second of the movie. Singer has only kept him around so he can introduce Cyclops and finally wipe his hands clean of as much First Class stuff he can.
Jubilee might simply be a student that's friends with Jean. Just because she doesn't suit up doesn't mean she's going to be killed either. Could be just a glorified cameo similar to Toad or Ink in DoFP.
>>82382838
isn't this the thing people were complaining about mano f steel for?
>>82384900
>ut there is a lot more we can see in our peripheral, so seeing her utilized ticks me off mostly because of the unutilized chances nearby.
The problem is movies needs stars for people to go see them at this point, and Fassbender/Macavoy aren't exactly box-office draws. None of singer's Legion of Twinks are really names either beyond Tye Sheridan but he's an up-and-comer.
JLaw is all they've got.
>>82385033
80s. Magneto goes back to his homeland (I know that he was retconned to be a german in comics, but before that he was hinted to be Polish).
He gets a wife, kids. Some mutant shit is happening. People get pissed and burn his house. He goes full wanton on people and embraces his Magneto side.
That's it. Anything else is irrelevant
>>82385047
It's not a blanket criticism.
Characters have different expectations placed on them. Superman is supposed to save the people in the buildings. Not so much from the X-Men.
>>82385047
Superman is not supposed to be edgy killer, destroyer. Meanwhile, the X-Men are known to leave cities in ruin.
Back in the time, there was this saying, that you could recognize that X-Men were here, because everything was destroyed
It's perfectly canonical.
>>82382838
>main stars are JLaw, Olivia Munn, MacAvoy and Fassbender
>The X-Men are secondary characters in an X-Men movie
Hollywood is such garbage, like opening a used diaper and smothering your face with it. This shit gives me AIDS of the soul
>>82385034
Everything is possible, but some anons want this movie to fail badly. I wonder if it's because of the success of Deadpool
>>82385022
I liked Origins more than I liked both X3 and Wolverine.
>>82385047
I will never get why people act like all superheroes are the same.
I mean shit if we applied this logic to other genres then why doesn't Ellen Ripley just use a lightsaber on the xenomorphs? It's all scifi, right?
>>82385144
Let me guess
because of Liev Shreiber as Sabretooth?
>>82384795
>>82384847
>>82384926
>Killing Havoc
The worst part is that his actor is pretty likeable, saw interviews with him on twitter for the movie, he and Jubilee are enthusiastic, but rumours have me worried that Singer wants to get rid of anything related to First Class.
I am still pissed off that Azazel got killed. Like, how they could even capture him?
>>82385182
Yeah, pretty much. I hope he'll be back for final Wolverine movie. Along with scene from pic related.
Do you think FOX learned something from deadpool and the x-movies will change after apocalypse ?
>>82385231
>how they could even capture him?
by surprise
>The worst part is that his actor is pretty likeable
if I can be honest, you're the first person here who says that he is likable. but that's fine.
The big elephant in the room is Havok being Cyke's OLDER brother, and BROTHER nonetheless. I don't think it will be touched.
I hope that they won't kill Jubilee, but who knows?
Apparently, the post credits scene will feature X-Men with their costumes being more comic booky. At least, the way that Fox could swallow it.
>>82385254
I think that you should tweet it to some person that will work on that movie. I don't think they are aware of that scene, and I think that it would be possible to include that. I don't know if Liev had any contract for more movies. Could be that they would have to offer him something.
But I would like to see him again as well
>>82385281
Costumes might be more accurate in the future, plus we might get Shi'ar. Finally.
>>82385254
I think it says a lot about the x-men that even a panned movie like origins still had some redeeming value.
>>82385281
That they can bank in on X-force when Cable shows up but hopefully they just allow them to do their own thing like they did for Deadpool
>>82385410
The best part? When Cable will appear for the first time in movies, I am more than certain that people will consider him a rip-off of Bucky
>>82385326
>The big elephant in the room is Havok being Cyke's OLDER brother, and BROTHER nonetheless. I don't think it will be touched.
You bet they won't. Singer doesn't care about characters that were not introduced in his movies, and Havoc having same surname as Cyke is irrelevant to him.
Why FOX didn't even kept the guy who directed First Class and got Singer back? That guy at least brought us yellow suits!
>>82386685
Vaughan wasn't interested in continuing
>>82386685
He put an instagram post showing the actors who play the parents of Havok and Cyclops so they are at least brothers.
>Why FOX didn't even kept the guy who directed First Class and got Singer back?
Vaughn left to do Kingsman instead. The odd thing is that Singer wrote First Class anyway so I don't get why he seems to hate it so much.
>>82386772
would fuck them all, from left to right, in that order
>>82386772
>Singer's arm wrapped around the blonde twink

>>82387064
pretty cool, to be quite honest friend and mate
I'm about the same level of hype as I was before DOFP and First Class. Not hyped too much, Kind of expecting a trainwreck, but still very interested enough to go see on the first week.
I think The Wolverine makes X3 palatable if you want to marathon 1/2/3/Wolverine/First Class/DOFP like I'm in the middle of doing.
I'd like to see a redo of the Phoenix though if those rumors end up being true.
>>82387191
The rumors are not rumors, because Singer basically said that he will do Dark Phoenix saga, only this time, the way it was supposed to be
here is what was supposed to be X-Men 3 by Singer, had he not left
Cyclops blames himself for Jean Grey's death and builds the Danger Room so the X-Men, formed by Wolverine, Storm, Rogue and Iceman, can become a more effective team. Cyclops and Wolverine slowly put their differences aside and earn newfound respect for one another.
Meanwhile, strange phenomenons begin to take place across the planet, and are attributed to a mysterious entity revealed to be Jean, who unlocked her full telepathic and telekinetic powers after her apparent death at Alkali Lake. Now calling herself "The Phoenix", Jean believes herself to be above the petty conflicts of the X-Men and the Brotherhood of Mutants and is decided to end tensions between humans and mutants on her own.
Magneto and the Brotherhood of Mutants formed by Mystique, Pyro and the Juggernaut then recruit Emma Frost, Professor Charles Xavier's old flame and fellow telepath, to help them control Jean's mind and use the Phoenix's power for their own purposes. Also on their team is the skilled thief Gambit, who soon develops a kinship with Rogue that drives him to betray the Brotherhood for the X-Men.
Jean soon loses control of her powers due to Magneto's interference and Cyclops is forced to kill her with his optic blasts. Jean is then reborn as a cosmic entity, the next stage of human evolution, even more evolved than the mutants. She departs to explore the mysteries to the cosmos, reminding the X-Men that she'll always keep an eye on them.
>>82387260
>Jean is then reborn as a cosmic entity, the next stage of human evolution, even more evolved than the mutants. She departs to explore the mysteries to the cosmos, reminding the X-Men that she'll always keep an eye on them.
That's a pretty dumb way to end a movie.
>>82387467
Except this is basically what Claremont wanted to do, but couldn't
>>82387260
>The rumors are not rumors, because Singer basically said that he will do Dark Phoenix saga, only this time, the way it was supposed to be
Well his version but still good to know.
>Cyclops and Wolverine put their differences aside and respect each other
>Possibility of a better Gambit, White Queen & Juggernaut
>Danger Room
That would have been awesome.
>Jean, who unlocked her full telepathic and telekinetic powers after her apparent death at Alkali Lake.
I'd still have hated that but....
>Jean is then reborn as a cosmic entity, the next stage of human evolution, even more evolved than the mutants. She departs to explore the mysteries to the cosmos, reminding the X-Men that she'll always keep an eye on them.
This would have saved it for me.
I thought whole Mutant Cure plot was alright but the big problem about X-men 3 was after the superb buildup at the end of 2 about Phoenix we got...well you know.
At least we got Kelsey Grammar as Beast.
>>82387522
The problem with Last Stand is that it was too many things at the same time. Also, the reason Cyke got offed was because Madsen himself didn't really want to act in this movie, and got something else scheduled.
Last Standing might have been the darkest time for capes, along with Batman and Robin, albeit Last Standing is not as offensive, and instead is disappointing
>>82387580
>and got something else scheduled.
It wasn't just something else, Singer took him so that he could be a side character in his Superman movie.
Also, as bad as Last Stand is, I cannot help myself but wonder if it would have better reviews had it been a MCU movie? It basically follows the formula, especially with crowding the movie with too many characters, lack of focus, quips, too many action scenes, and lack of depth. Pure popcorn movie.
>>82387607
Oh right. I wonder if Singer regrets taking this assignment. For some uncanny reason, various directors cannot replicate the original Superman movies and translate them to modern times. Instead they remake Supe into something else
>>82387620
I wish consolewar faggotry was a bannable offense.
>>82387693
It is, if you make a thread about it.

Destruction wasn't in MOS or BvS.
That being said I'm thinking Apocalypse > CW
depending on how much screen time Spiderman gets.
>>82387753
You probably missed the last few weeks, when threads starting with "DCfags rekt" not only were deleted, but OPs were banned. The first thread provoking a console war had OP banned for everyone to see, before it got deleted, with like hundred of replies
Everyone is tired with this shit, but frankly, a lot of people want to wipe the smug off out of mcufags face.
>>82387760
I love the X-Men, but Civil Wart will probably blow X-Men away. Sadly. Spider-Man is too exciting for normies to pass on, and X-Men are too grim for normies to watch it.
Both movies will make profit, but the X-Men will remain in the shadows. And frankly, it's better this way, because X-Men are more known than your average capes, but it's not too mainstream to be a victim of disney method, like most of marvel capes. In X-men movies, you can actually see casualties and people being genocided.

I meant 70s-90s
So either you have patchy memory, or you don't read comics, or I have to remind you about the time when Phoenix fought with Galactus' Herald.
Or the time when they fought Erik The Red, Proteus, Mesmero, Magneto, Garrokk, Moses Magnum, Sinister, Marauders, Adversary, Sentinels, Hellfire Club, etc.

What do they want? Last Stand? Because that movie was as mcu as you can get.
What do they want? Shitty costumes? Magneto making quips about holocaust? Or suck, like every marvel villain? Wolverine being an avenger? If you think that Fox-Men suck, let me tell you something, mcu X-Men would be asinine.

yep seems like 50% to me.
>>82388872
Define good X-Men movie. What are your expectations? Especially from the franchise that is known from convoluted history, time travel fuckery, alternative realities, and retcons?
>>82388890
It seems like you had enough of internet for today.
But then again, maybe you're right
DOFP is shit. It only had Sentinels defeating X-Men brutally. It had characters having motivations. And it had plot twists. Actually, it had a plot. Yup, it sucked.
>>82382932
that was the human torch dude
>>82388902
idk ask the people at Fox or ask the people who give more of a shit then me, I'm ok with FC and DOFP but everything else is just meh or shit
>>82389058
please, have a pot
>>82384100
>implying First Class is even consistently good within its own runtime
>>82389139
It has the best cameo on the history of cape movies
>>82384237
wow, a 2 second clip. That is totally exactly like a two and a half hour movie.
Also DC does it all the time now.
>>82388045
It's not bait, we just hate mcucks
it's not a bait, it's not a flamewar, it's reality.
you can ban me, but it's the truth
please fuck off and don't delete this, like the insecure faggots that you are, unless you are afraid that my opinion will destroy your delicate /co/
>>82382838
>disaster movie
Meta.
>>82387522
>At least we got Kelsey Grammar as Beast.
Thanks for reminding me how great that Beast looked compared to the new Beast...
>>82390433
What I don't get is that in DoFP, they had both Beasts in it, and Kelsey's make up still looked perfect. They were intentionally choosing to give youngBeast a shitty design.
It's just strange.
>>82384251
Will Warren be his over the top murderous Archangel self? or will Synger make him a fucking faggot with metal wings?
>>82390623
both
>>82390541
This reminds me, isn't JLaw complaining about Mystique makeup?
And here I was going to ask why she can't demand the original outfit for her character, but this reminds me that JLaw, unlike Munn, likely never checked source material and cares only about the money,
Just one more movie with JLaw as Mystique then we are free of her lads.
>>82390823
indeed, she will torment marvel now.
>>82390775
why Mystique can't be a villain?
I just found another problem with the timelime.
Deadpool takes place in the present, Cable will come to the present, Cable is going to take Cannonball into x-force, which mean new mutants need to take place in the present.
The problems is Xavier, they will have to re-cast another 50 years old baldman to be the mentor of the new mutants.
>>82391031
i don't think anyone will notice
>>82384802
Good:
X-Men
X2
The Wolverine
First Class
Days of Future Past
Bad:
Last Stand
Origins
50% huh?
>>82391031
Reynolds already suggested Deadpool doesn't necessarily take place in the X-men continuity
>>82388647
Say what you will about Bay, but he knows what sells tickets
>>82384795
>Plus he spoke about Magneto's family being killed
That was known before the first trailer come out.
Havok being killed doesn't suprise me tho. I got the feeling that he will be killed the moment I learned that his actor coming back.
>>82391182
True.
>>82382838
>Are you hyped for Apocalypse yet?
I am boycotting this movie because Munn was hired to play the role of my waifu. I absolutely refuse to pay money to support this faggotry.
>>82383220
Obviously talking about movie Phoenix since if you remember that was just a split personality and nothing much more. So of course someone named apocalypse that has been resting for centuries is far more powerful.
>>82383986
Tbh Xmen 3 isn't a bad movie, but it's a really bad Xmen movie. Its pretty enjoyable when they replay it on Fx.
Wolverine Origins on the other hand is both a bad movie and a bad Xmen movie. Unless you watch the no special effects version as a comedy.
Outside of the MCU cape flicks aren't looking good this year. Deadpool was a pleasant surprise considering all the things that could have gone wrong however its success was due largely to its novelty, the character's pop culture recognition and the fact it was R-rated (outside of that it was fairly mediocre. DC and Waner Bros just can't seem to get it together and as much as I want to be excited for Suicide Squad there are just too many warning signs for me fool myself into thinking it will deliver even Deadpool level of okayishness, particularly with such a large cast of cinematicly un-established characters either in half-assed costumes or casual clothes forced into a cinematic universe that is clearly trying to hard to push too much too soon.
I very much want X-Men Apocalypse to succeed, but the warning signs are too damning to ignore. Their handling of the characters and costumes might have been passable back in the early 2000s when Cape flicks were still a fledgling genre trying to establish legitimacy, but in the modern day with films like BvS and Avengers, there's really no excuse. The CGI and special effects look like an unpolished Video Game cutscene and the costumes are just shit (I mean seriously Apocalypse is only one of the more iconic villains of the franchise and you half ass it with practical effects?)
The movie could still be very good in terms of delivering enough redeemable elements to balance out its flaws, but there's no denying it will disappoint visually and that the character handling is mirroring X3 far too much for anyone's comfort. If you're a fan of the comics, don't expect to be pleased, it's quite obvious they're noodling for the white trash movie goers who cheer every time Wolverine appears on screen or hollar out "Deadpool" from the back row for no apparent reason.
i dont want another fucking phoenix story line in this universe. if singer wanted to do that, he should have done it already in x-3. he decided to leave for superman or whatever.
i want sinister & the marauders. or better yet, i want a full reboot with re-casted scott, hank, & jean as the first class with no mystique.
>>82382838
Will they destroy the moon? I wanna see that happen in a movie.
>>82382838
>Olivia Munn
>Salsa Stark
>Dyke Dew Storm
>Gay Anagel
>Cyclopes
>tacticool Paintball gear
>>82384820
Bay doesn't just do indiscriminate destruction, and he's usually pretty on the money at identifying what makes a franchise popular in the first place and sticking tits and explosions to it.
His movies might be garbage, but they're beautiful and enjoyable garbage.
>>82392064
Then Gene and Prof X can combine their mental powers to reform it back together saving the world, but in doing so the strain awakens something within Xavier. DUN DUN DUN! an alternate persona that his future self had sealed within himself years ago! Onslaught is coming! Meanwhile it pans out to show the reformed moon with fissures and discoloration in the shape of an "X" on its surface.
The sad thing is you know damn good and well that this could easily happen in a Fox Cape film in this day and age.
>>82391115
>X-Men 1
>Good
It has aged like milk on a porch in the middle of July.
>>82392094
>Mowhawk storm is somehow a lesbian thing
Found the casual
Enjoy the MCU you cuck
>>82392309
The special effects maybe.
However it still has stuff like Magneto being held at gunpoint, Poland and The Chess Scene at the end that put it above Origins and Last Stand still.
>>82392105
While the point you're trying to make still stands there is a fair amount of indiscriminate destruction in his films. And while they can be beautiful, them being enjoyable depends largely on your IQ and demographic. He sells a quality product targeted at tweens, sub-normers, troglodytes and white-trash, the same people who guarantee any video game that has pretty enough graphics or tryhard enough appeal will hit 1 million sold no matter how shitty it is. Still, as you said that's at least a successful formula where as this movie really begs the question of just how low people are willing to set their standards in a cape film this day and age.
>>82392328
Not him, but I can't imagine anyone but a casual who would be excited for this film.
>Fox literally has the best property of Marvel
>does this
Success is on a silver platter and they still muck it up.
>>82392328
So if you don't like what you're seeing so far of this movie that makes you a Casual?
Well if Casuals don't like it and Comic book fans don't like it, what does that leave? /tv/? /co/ntrarians? Internet trolls?
>>82392586
Between this and Fant4stic it just honestly seems like they're acting purely out of spite.
>>82392586
X men has the best female cast IMO.
>>82392668
And they're still fucking that up.
>>82392668
If Marvel Studios had X-Men. It would be a nice breathe of fresh air to see anybody who isn't ScarJo.
>"Mutant & Proud!"
>most of the movie will feature her without blue make-up
Everything about this movie screams early 2000s.
The special effects & costumes
The aesthetic apprehension towards making a super hero move look like a super hero movie.
ham-fisted cast fired at the audience like buckshot out of a shotgun barrel.
Obvious executive heavy handedness and coddling of the source material.
>>82392668
No shit
I don't think anyone cares about Spider-Woman or Agent 13
>>82392937
i dont think anyone even cares about black widow. jean/storm/kitty >> any avengers or spiderman female character
>>82386772
Its hard to keep track of rather the twinks are in the movie or just in Singer's stable
>>82393357
The problem is all of Marvels good female characters are X-Men or shulk and for whatever goddamn reason they are embarrassed by Shulkie.
>>82393722
They aren't embarrassed by her, Marvel doesn't own her film rights.
>>82382838
>title is literally has "Apocalypse"
>expects the movie have Villain to be surrounded by wondering woodland creatures like a singing Disney Princess.
Sweet fucking Loki, The Man of Murder posting, & MCU's brushing any assumption of casualties with quips have rotted your minds. Were you expecting a action movie to have dance offs in pillow fortresses set in a empty desert? The future of Comic Book movies is more grim than i imagine. Pretty soon if a hero doesn't leave his muddy shoes at the door in the base of solitude, he'll be branded a villain to this board's eyes.
>>82382838
so what they're saying is the level of destruction in this is gonna be... APOCALYPTIC?
huh, go figure.
>>82394299
If you think this movie is anything worth defending or a promising future for comic book movies then your opinion clearly isn't anything that needs taken seriously.
>>82385326
>>82385326
>The big elephant in the room is Havok being Cyke's OLDER brother, and BROTHER nonetheless. I don't think it will be touched.
actually, rumor is Alex is the one to introduce Scott in the school
>>82394299
Yeah, I mean, why can't the MCU kill half their characters in every movie like the X-Men flicks do?
If BvS taught us anything it's that we need more grim dark consequences in our cape films.
>>82392586
Who else do they own? Fam4 I want in MCU so they can unfuck their shit
>>82389684
and notice how those two seconds were full of more story and just overall better then what DC tends to put out
also if Fox wasn't such shits it would have been Galactus
tfw you like the x-men movies and are excited for this new one.
It's weird, I reall y like James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, and Oscar Isaac, but this movie just looks kinda bad.
>>82392740
Fucking this.
This is why I hate Jlaw as Mystique.
>>82382994
100 times this.
I was so disappointed when I heard instead of proper sequel we'll be getting this fucking crossover. And now the First Class "universe" is closed forever. Fuck em.
>>82394299
Man you're not getting it.
If they want to kill off a bunch of mutatns actually kill Wolverine or Xavier or Magneto.
Killing Jubilee in the same movie she's introdued means nothing because they put zero effort into building her up. Killing a bunch of background soldiers means even less.
And by the way, you know what movie had a bunch of character deaths? X-Men 3: The Last Stand. That was totally great, right? Wasn't it memorable as fuck when Psylocke got vaporized?
>>82384767
wait
is she really the new ms marvel
fuck everything
i was even thinking about how decent the mcu casting was
>>82383152
It's bullshit since the X-Men universe on its own is so much more.
>>82396028
They've already cast the chick from Vikings as Captain Marvel.
No word yet of Jlaw in the MCU, that rumor was just started by some clickbait article.
>>82394656
>also if Fox wasn't such shits it would have been Galactus
Literal children are posting right now.
>>82394708
Don't let the /co get you down. Most of /co is just worried the MCU will stop being popular with normal people who don't hang out on comics/superhero message boards. They judge how much they like these movies based on how much they hear the people they want to be like talk about these movies.
If you enjoy your FoX-Men, then enjoy your FoX-Men and others (like myself) will as well.
FoX-Men is never going to be as much of a meme as the MCU is, but that's probably a good thing. What's important is these good movies make money and continue doing what they are doing.
