Did anyone else enjoy this? I thought it was pretty great, way better than Civil Snore and Dawn of Justice in my opinion. I liked the 80s aesthetic alot. Also liked Quicksilver's little arc and the Jean, Cyclops and Nightcrawler scenes. That Wolverine sequence is worth the price of admission alone too.

Just don't see this shit in 3D though it's a waste of money. But yeah all in all its my favorite capeshit of the year so far.
>>
It's certainly capekino.

bretty good but also had a lot more potential
>>
>>70134076
It was great. It could have been better, and a few other x-men movies were better, but it didn't deserve the retarded fucking reviews it got.
>>
i saw 3 times.
its pretty gut .
>>
>>70134076

I felt that it balanced goofiness with seriousness really well. Few capeshit can do that these days.

This is the only capekino this year IMO

>>70134076
It's X2 tier.
way better than any capeshit we saw this year
>>
>>70134076
I loved it.
But I thought it was frustrating because I can honestly say this could have been the UNDISPUTED best X-men movie if there TINY TINY things had been corrected. It honestly felt like the script was good but needed just one more proofread to make it perfect.

The film opens on a top down helicopter shot of a desert, with narration about mutants with extreme power thinking they should rule the world. The camera then pans horizontally to reveal a pyramid, and sweeps over it to show thousands of slaves praying and chanting to a person in a tutankamun-esque masque as he proceeds toward the pyramid. He enters the pyramid with four people, who also have ornate masks. They take the masks off and the camera cuts to a view of a man's chest. A knife runs down the chest slowly but once the cut has completed it heals itself rapidly. One of the four henchman tells the main guy that this is the one they've been looking for.

After that I have no idea because we left.

8/10


What do you guys make of the post credits scene?

It was good, but not great and quite frustrating in a lot of ways.

>oh shit we need ANOTHER excuse for Magneto to turn evil, quick give him a wife and kid and kill them 10 minutes later
>let's include Jubilee and not have her even use her powers
>Angel, Storm and Psylocke have literally zero character development
>Nightcrawler looked fucking terrible, and not even in the so bad it's good way Quicksilver does
>Apocalypse looked shit and had fucking zero character development or motivation, he literally existed for nothing more than cool CGI effects
>fired the nukes into space to get rid of them when he could have just wiped the planet clean that way considering he was fucking planning to do it eventually anyway
>FUCKING JLAW AND HER SHIT ACTING
>felt like a retread of First Class's gathering of the X-Men and DoFP's ending

I felt like it just.. exists, on its own it doesn't accomplish anything the other X-Men movies have done better in the past, and at the end all I could think was 'well I can't wait until the sequel to see an X-Men movie where they're actually the X-Men doing missions and shit'.

Instead we keep getting FUCKING MAGNETO RUINING EVERYTHING FOR EVERYONE BUT OH SHIT HE'S GOOD AND KILLS THE BAD GUY AND SAYS OLD FRIEND TO CHARLES HE CLEARLY WON'T REPEAT ALL THIS SHIT AGAIN.

The Essex Corporation is a lead in to Mr Sinister who manipulates Cyclops and Jean Grey to breed so that they make Cable, the most powerful mutant in the world. So with the next X-Men movie and the next Deadpool movie we could see an integrated universe which could be fun
>>
>>70137281

Essex is a name commonly linked to Nathaniel Essex aka Mr Sinister, a jerkface geneticist that is obsessed with the Summers and Grey bloodlines, he believed that with careful manipulation of their ancestry they could give birth to potential THE strongest mutant on the planet.

He also dabbles in other genetic experiments, him taking Wolverine's blood might be a setup for the creation of X-23

At least i felt the stakes of that movie.

In these movies, it feels like they are fighting in a closed off space.

In Captain America, its a populated area. In these movies, its an abandoned stadium and ruined city.

Then why does it feel like everyone is just playing a type of character rather than a fully fleshed one? There is never enough focus on many of them to be invested.

I feel like it is just stuffed with too many characters so people get shafted. The X-Men franchise has continually suffered with this.

Hey make Hugh Jackman the star or Jennifer Lawrence. Stick everyone else in the backround with three lines despite making a big fuss of their character being in this film in all the trailers. Give them like a slither of a character.

Put some fantastic actors in it but never let them have anything at all to work with.

There was no 80's aesthetic, none. It all looked 2000 as fuck. The characters didn't dress like the 80's, the scenery was contemporary and there was barely any indication that this is happening in the past. I don't get where you faggots get this idea.

It was an unfocused mess. Too many characters. Too much jumping around. Too many contrivances. Too fucking long. I haven't been this bored watching capeshit since GOTG.

The wolverine scene was a huge let down, what the fuck are you talking about?

They got his outfit wrong (obviously gotta show Hugh Jackmans face!) the way he acted was no different than he does in any other film/fight. They kills were tame and nothing special, just more of the same shit we saw in X2.
Even more disappointing after the brutal ancient Egypt scenes, and a few others throughout hte film.
He should have been feral, attacking like an animal, and completely out of control. There was no sense of that at all.
>>
I thought it was okay by the previous X-Men movie's standards.
The only things that struck me as strange were how nobody seemed to have aged 15 years since First Class (was Havok 30+ by this point?) and that JLaw the fucking prima donna wouldn't put her makeup on in 90% of her screen time.
Oh, and almost no Jubilee.
And sniktbub was wearing boxers for no real reason, probably so he wouldn't be full nude in front of "teenage" Sansa.
Sansa looked fucking stupid too with her 6head. Hair and makeup should've insisted she wear her hair down more like Famke.

Actually, you know, it wasn't a great movie. It was better than X-Men 3, and that's all. Far from capekino.

I dunno maybe it's explained better in the comics, but it just felt anticlimactic as hell.
>>
>>70142587
Also how could he atomize those people in the smeltery in pooland, but not the mutants attacking/betraying him?
Oh and as he collected his 4 "horsemen", why Angel and Psylocke? Compared to Magneto and Storm they are hilariously underpowered.

Furthermore why can Psylockes psychic blade and leash cut through stone etc, but not through the beasts neck?

Can any comic nerds answer those questions for me?

It made me kinda wish that Fox did the MCU instead of Marvel Disney.

Not that Civil War was shit it's just tries so hard to appeal to everyone rather than have it's own vision. Maybe it's just the TV show aspect of the MCU that lessens things. Like it's all just episodes building up to the Thanos finale instead of substantial movies in their own right.

Why didn't magneto look like he was almost 50? If he was a kid during WWII then 40 years later he should start to show signs of aging. Hell quicksilver didn't even look older than DoFP. The whole movie felt like it only took place at the most like a year after DoFP (1973).

There are so many problems with this movie. Apocalypse was not intimidating and completely fumbled, it all boiled down to "oh guess what? He can do this too! How threatening is this guy that will obviously be dead or defeated by the end of the movie!". The entire first hour of the movie is poor characterization of the heroes and Apocalypse gathering his Four Horsemen (which, by the way, had fuck all reason to join him for the most part) who proceed to do FUCKING NOTHING until the extremely underwhelming final fight scene that had potential to top the airport fight but they fucked it up. Fucking Psylocke is finally put in a movie and she's given no introduction and essentially does fuck all but look hot with her titties flopping around in the like three scenes shes in.

Magneto's story arc could've been better but they devoted way too little time to it due to the need to. All that menacing "destruction" that he causes at the climax and the nuclear disarmament thing are completely glanced over and used as nothing more than eye candy with cool shots. I had a bunch more complaints but I forgot them all.

Still. Quicksilver was great. Wolverine was great. Phoenix was cool. Forming the original X-men at the end was cool. Not as bad as X3. Probably on par with BvS. Nowhere close to Civil War.

>terrible writing
>shit acting, as if none of them wanted to be there
>corny as fuck and predictability everywhere
>uninspiring and uncreative

Apocalypse has so many cool characters surrounding him, not to mention the various storylines. It felt like they created the most uninteresting shit they could have with this character
>>
>>70150153
Oh yeah. Sophie Turner's accent was laughable, There was one fucking fight scene, the climax (not counting the Wolverine scene). In a fucking modern capeshit movie. And the actual "battle" against Apocalypse was them just throwing shit at him basically.
>>
Anyone got a pic of old Apocalypse before his transposition into Isaacs? He looked genuinely creepy.
>>
>>70150122

He was supposed to return for X2 but scheduling and stuff got in the way. So, no.
>>
>DoFP ending with Mystique capturing Wolverine is ignored/abandoned
>Nightcrawler being Mystique's son is never mentioned or hinted at
>No one takes issue with Magneto killing, at minimum, several million people
>It's never explained exactly what Apocalypse intends to do with the earth after "cleansing" it

This movie is a mess, but still entertaining and fun in a way that grimdark BvS isn't.

Too obvious and forced. But yes it's the best reference that can be done to RoTJ, excluding midget wookies.

>>
Sitting in the theatre at the moment. It was awful.

Loved DoFP, X2 and FC. This was garbage. Felt like no one wanted to make this one. Everyone participated felt obligated to make it, none of the heart or magic of the previous films is present.

Only good scenes were QS saving everyone and Wolverine reveal

Save your money lads
>>
Quicksilver really should have revealed the father-son connection to Magneto and had that dramatic moment, since Fassbender's contract is up and he might not appear again. Missed opportunity.
>>
>>70151058

Singer saving this for an emotional beat in a future installment that he actually gives a shit about.
>>
>>70151306
...an emotional beat that can't happen if Fassbender doesn't return, though.

Fassbender is a real high-profile, Oscar-worthy actor now and given this movie's poor reception there might not be much incentive for him to sign another contract.

It was decent. Definitely better than what critics are giving it. Once again the Quicksilver scene was the best part of the movie though.

The final battle was a stupid mess, Sophie turner is a terrible actress other than that the movie was decent.

Zemo is the only compelling, believable villain out of this year's four capekino films.

Zemo was cool because he actually won.

>>70153064
Yes, and on top of that his goal/motivation doesn't involve global destruction or domination, and he never directly fights anyone.

Oh just shove it with your cultural appropriation of "capekino" from BvS or other DC films.

Nothing Fox or Disney have ever brought out is "kino" worthy. Not even that anti-American, pro UN, one world government propaganda piece Civil War.

Nothing is kino!

It's a good movie but Mystique / JLaw ruins it

All that shit about her being everyone's hero was really over done. It was like the writers wanted to kiss her ass so she would appear in the film.
>>
>>70134076
horrible movie. Nothing happened, magneto had the same arc as usual and did the same things he usually does. apocalypse was terrrrrribad.
>>
>>70153366
>Nothing happened

They assembled all the important X-Men.
>>
A lot of lost potential. But that's to be expected, given this franchise's history.

At least they aren't giving Cyclops the dick this time around.

Also getting really fuckin tired of JLaw Mystique, she's so forced that it's just awful. Really bad. It was bad enough that she was the lynchpin in the last movie (plot made no fuckin sense, it clearly should've been Rogue's abilities that allowed the Sentinels to absorb powers), but it's just disgusting at this point.
>>
>>70135228
Would've been better without JLaw and Turner, yeah.

Half of Turners scenes all I could think of was wtf was wrong with her neck rolls and that joke about being blue was fucking stupid.
>>
>>70141841
She was the FoX-Men version of Anya Eisenhardt. The sacrificial lamb that never lived to reach her teens.

Like others have said, the cast really brought it down. Moments like the nukes going into space make you wonder if Bryan Singer was limited creatively.

The plot made fuck-all sense, Apocalypse is legit NEVER explained or given motivation, Magneto helps genocide 7 million people in Cairo then helps repaint the X mansion with a smile, Sophie Turner looked like she was about to pass out in boredom, J Law seemed like a massive cunt.

But it was better than BvS

It was pretty solid compared to the snoozefest Civil War was and the overreacting "symbolism" of BvS.

How? The majority of the movie is completely boring. Apocalypse was a shit villain and a step down after Days of Future Past's character driven plot.

Magneto's entire sub-plot was laughable.

Nobody talks about it being obliterated in three minutes. This is immersion?

How much belief do you expect me to suspend? My whole fucking brain? Is the only way to enjoy this, to become fully autistic?
>>
It's really impressive in retrospect how Wolverine got completely taken out of the final battle in Days of Future Past, that showed restrain, and probably took awhile to get the execs to agree to that.

If Singer still had his balls he would've had Mystique get her neck snapped by Apocalypse, which would've served as a real emotional catalyst for everyone to band together to stop him in the final fight.

Instead she just gets choked a bit and he dies from friendship.

Who the fuck cares what somebody says during the destruction of the country? Everybody knows it's happening, and all-powerful god mutant is behind it. All anybody in the audience cares about is the action, and how the hell the villain is going to be bested.
>>
>>70154689

I actually prefer the movie to focus on the action rather than "THINK OF THE 65215 MILLLION" shit. Marvel movies since the Avengers and even BvS have done that theme to death.
>>

>>70155620
I'm saying that there is no consequence for literally anything that happens...it's beyond retarded to not even have consequence for something that cartoonishly wide scale.
>>
>>70155621
It's not about shoving a message in the audience, it's about characters doing retarded out of character shit and then other characters ignoring it because Singer thinks his audience is already beyond autistic to care at this point.

I'm just saying, I liked it, but that ending was cringe.

I'm told not to complain about this because "audience only care about muh action?"

How about we call the ending for what it was? Retarded. It's not like we are debating aesthetics here, we are talking about the fact that the storytelling itself was fucked up at the last ten minutes of the movie...it's not just about "shutting your brain off", that's easy to do with capeshit 100 percent of the time. It's about how even by the movie's own standards, the ending was autistic as all shit.
