Yes, I agree.

Only one scene from that entire movie was good everything else was varying from meh to pure shit to cringe.

god this shot was so bad

like an MTV music video from the 90s
>>
The problems with this movie are so basic. Things like establishing stakes and clear rules regarding the supernatural elements were thrown out the window. And the whole 'kills millions but unwisely spares the main characters' thing is so fucking old and stupid.
>>
>>70817870
it was literally perfect
>>
>>70817797
not really. he also becomes bald due to Oscar Isaac trying to drain his powers from him
>>
>>70817188
It was nice to see cyclops done half decently, magneto was great, and the wolverine scene was really well done.

Otherwise it was mediocre to bad, with JLaw being the worst part.
...And Who gives a shit about psylock, why are we even discussing some random boring character?
>>
WREAK HAVOC was the best part of the entire film.

please log off. thanks.
>>
>>70817188
>Mystique not even blue on the poster
They should have just cast J-Law as Emma Frost or something, the blue makeup they do apply to her still clearly allows the viewer to see Lawrence's features.

It makes no sense Mystique would constantly use this one particular individual, even if she wanted to constantly appear human despite all of the events of First Class.
>>
>>70817885
>spares the main character?
Who are you talking about? He needed Charles.
>>
>>70817989
Two examples that spring to mind are how he chooses to break Quicksilver's leg rather than disintegrate him, and how he chooses to fuse Cyclops to a wall rather than disintegrate him.
>>
>>70817188
It's the best X-Men film to be quite honest.
>>
What surprised me the most about this movie is how much I didnt hate nightcrawler
I mean yeah he looked like an emo faggot but him being so out of place and wet behind the ears was one of the best parts of the movie
>>
>>70818009
Also he didn't kill quicksilver because he wanted psylock to do it (I'm guessing as a loyalty test), and didn't he get distracted from finishing cyclops off
>>
>>70818069
Honestly most of the characters didn't look that bad in the movie in motion, compared to their posters.

The exceptions being Angel, storm and psylock looked dated with their costumes and beast and mystique looked plain awful
>>
>>70818097
Are you really arguing in favor of a lazy, cliched narrative choice? There may have been an inkling of some internal logic, but the fact is Apocalypse is a guy to whom the lives of those that stand in his way mean nothing.

Wut. It was completely unnecessary and just wolverine fanservice like they have to do in every goddamn xmen movie these days
Not to mention they once again fucked up the whole timeline of all these movies
>>
It's called Xmen and you have mystique, magneto, quicksilver, and Moira (CIA lady) leading the group. Oh Jean and Scott are there, the two most boring Xmen. Storm is there but as an antagonist. No one gives a shit about the beast love story either. Apocalypse and his 4 horsemen are really weak.
>>
>>70817436
if they did there would only be one scene where he goes super fast, maybe two but even that's pushing it because they're expensive as fuck to film and everything is practical effects
he's not an interesting enough character to have a solo movie about, he's really more of a plot device
>>
>>70817426
>>70817870

AND I RAAAAN
>>

Yeah I was wondering about that.

Storm, Magneto I understand

But Psy and Birdboy are fucking worthless.
>>
>>70818409

Birdboy is a scout.Psylocke is the brute of the team.

They all have counterparts.
>>
>>70818469

Psy is about as much brute as fucking Jubilee.

Storm is a billion times better than Psy could ever hope to be, let alone Magneto with a cup of coffee and his 'big boy holocaust survivor' pants on.
>>
Jlaw was shit but she looked pretty hot in this not gonna lie
Dat dress during the cagefight scene, lawd
>>
>>70818150
It's was more like a horror film. You don't really see much of him but he's butchering everyone and leaving bloody dead bodies everywhere.

>>70818238
Yes, but it doesn't mean the scene itself wasn't good
>>
>>70818409
Angel was pretty fucking deadly one apocalypse upgraded him.

It was stupid anyway. He says everyone casual, then it turns out he fucking missed havok and is just like "oh..."

I'm not gonna lie. I only watched it for the Quickman superfast sequence
>>
>>70821578
He was the only worth while character in the whole thing mate.
>>
>>70817987
Nah, JLaw doesn't have the hotness to be Emma. But yeah, they should just had cast her in other role.
>>
>>70818372
I RAAAAAN SO FAR AWAAAY
>>
>>70821621
Yeah, but his character has been milked to death by now. I mean, I like Fassbender as much as anyone else, but we just got more of the same. He was cool as hell after becoming overpowered though.

>>70817461

oh my fuck he's cute

Same. Quicksilver is awesome. The movie was good though, surprised me. Wasn't expecting much.

>don't control your powers, embrace them
>has literally spent less than 4 minutes in her natural form


Jlaw was a mistake
>>
>>70821621
He's by far the most infuriating character so far. So wishy washy and it's always the same old conflict with him switching sides every few seconds or so. AND he gets away scot free most of the time.

Havok was already swallowed up by the blast at the time Quicksilver entered the premises. He got out every last one of them in time. Everyone that could be saved, he did. Granted, it was a bit tone deaf of him doing the moonwalk and spiking up the guy's hair and stuff, but he didn't have time to save Havok anyway.

Think of it this way:
Charles wanted her to be "normal" in FC.
She made up a form for herself that required low maintenance and thus could be held for a long time.
"Normal" Mystique is essentially a pallette swap of blue Mystique with longer hair. That's why it's fine for her to wear it during FC and DOFP.
I guess the in-universe reasoning she stayed JLaw for most of the movie is that she didn't want to be recognized as THE HERO. She could've morphed back when with Charles and Erik, though.
>>
>>70818511
>>70821805
>>70821922
She is though, pretty much the only one capable of physical, or at least grounded combat.
>>
>>70818469
Eh, the way I look at it:

Angel is the Warrior (Melee offense and defense)
Storm is the Wizard (Elemental attacks)
Magneto is the Archer (Shooting metal)
Psylocke is the Assassin (Agility and reflexes)
>>
>>70822017
she's more a rogue/assassin than a brute
>>
>>70822035
Magneto is more like a Berserker or Tank, like the one capable of taking a huge crowd all by himself.
>>
I love how they had to nerf everyone for the final fight.
>Psylocke's sword/whip cuts through concrete and meta
>but not through Beast's neck
>a couple minutes ago, Magneto was levitating entire industrial ships and cities all over the world
>all he does against Apocalypse is throw some metal at him
>Apocalypse build a giant pyramid from turning a whole city to send and restructuring it
>makes a forcefield around himself and throws people around a bit
>>
>>70822083
The whole end fight I was thinking "Didn't he just decapitate a bunch of guys with fucking sand?"

Yeah, typical superhero bullshit: set them up as indestructable forces then their invisible magic meters run out and the good guys get the upper hand.

>>
>>70822083
Nah, you've got to admit, Quicksilver fighting him was fucking cool.
>>
>>70822121
Not just that, he turned a whole factory's worth of people into sand in an instant when he picked up magneto.
It was also pretty goofy when Magneto had to make an arm motion to slowly pick up Charles in the mansion.
>>
>>70822072
No, Apocalypse has that covered.

It's Pestilence in this case. And I have no idea who is who except Angel because he was Death in the comics.

The bad:
>Apocalypse gets his horsemen then they just stand on a hill for the entire movie doing nothing
>Taking a jet from Canada to Cairo in a few minutes
>Taking a helicopter from Massachusetts to Canada
>Apocalypse is fought one time and is killed
>Half of the Horsemen are weak faggots
>Charles being bald and Storm having white hair are explained as Apocalypse buffing them but they both had these traits in the original movies which take place in a time line where Apocalypse never woke up
>Horrible script with horrible dialogue
>Was too long but felt too short at the same time because of the wildly disjointed narrative
>Apocalypse never felt like much of a threat until the last few moments of the movie
>Magneto murders millions and all is forgiven once Apocalypse is killed
>War room scenes are laughable

Good:
>Wolverine scene
>Memesilver
>I liked most of the actors

My biggest complaint is that this movie manages to make mother fucking Apocalypse feel like a side story. The characters don't change, there's no meaningful lesson. He just causes some trouble and is then murdered.

I really want to see more scenes between Quicksilver and Magneto. Hope we get a new movie, but it seems a bit unlikely since the movie bombed. Sad really, if there was a capekino that deserved to not bomb, it was this one, way more than BvS or Civil War, who doesn't even need the money anyway.
