This movie kind of ran into a perfect storm, didn't it? It got shit reviews, it wasn't as good as the first one, it was a sequel no one asked for, and on top of that it lands on the same weekend that Depp gets outed as a wife-beater.

I think it'll have a decent long term run when people learn it's not another Last Stand. It's a decent action movie being reviewed like it was trying to be Interstellar or something

Its too bad because the movie is very entertaining, with lots of great moments.

Much more coherent and easier to watch than BVS and nowherr near as preachy as CW.

The only major flaw this movie has is that its a little too cheesy. Its almost exactly like the cartoon.

Its so much fun, I completely forgot about bvs.
>>
>>83271039
Days of Future Past was THE X-Men movie. All the previous movies led up to that point, it included both casts, and it ended with the future cast living happily. The series really ought to have ended there.
>>
>>83271272
Yeah, a bit longer ending and they could have ended the franchise then and there in one of it's highest points.
Most actor contracts are up anyway, so this was the perfect moment to reboot the whole thing.
>>
>>83271247
>Much more coherent
It's pretty hard to make a movie with such little plot incoherent.
I mean, Apocalypse wakes up, he goes full ''hurr, this is not how the world in my time was'', goes full retard and the X-Men have to stop him.

I really like this movie and hope it does well. I am somewhat of an MCU fanboy/cheerleader/whatever, but this franchise has been going on for so long and staying fresh, so I hope they get to keep doing their thing without selling the rights our turning the franchise into Deadpool and Friends.

And credit where credit's due, I have a clear memory of seeing the first flick in the theatre and being mesmerized by How much it played like a comic book. You can talk about your Batman 89s and your Blades, but the X Men flicks kicked off the modern super hero flick as we know it.

It had a huge drop in quality after X-Men 2 that didn't start recovering up until First Class.

He's probably pissed because anything not pirates of the carribean has been bad for him.

>>83271615
True, but First Class was such a brilliant move. They can coast on at least two more flicks on the charm of Fassneto alone. Phasing out the old cast and introducing genuinely fun characters like Quicksilver is what gives me hope in the future of the series.

The MCU is doing a similar move with Civil War, but I would say with the MCU it's more about the characters being inherently cool (Punisher, or Black Panther, for instance), whereas the X franchise it's more about how the actors embody the characters (Jackman, Reynolds, etc).

It's 1 day, + Thursday previews on 8.2 million

it's not bad for Memorial Day weekend (especially after last year) but it's pretty shitty for a movie that cost $234 million to make and probably easily over $300 million including marketing

it implies a final domestic (assuming it can make the high 4-day estimate of 80 million) somewhere around the 225-240 mark; but the 80 is optimistic given the reviews and this could easily collapse below 200 at the end of the 4-week, limping past for a final total almost dead on 200

the international is terrible and implies box office 50% lower than DoFP based on performance to date; that would also imply a final gross for all markets totalling around $400 million - the level for 4 out of 8 movies in the franchise

it's probably not going to make 600, which is the break-even
>>
>>83274243
i keep hearing this and nobody who says it seems to be aware that none of the other X-men movies opened in China

even taking the friday into account nobody's predicting more than $90m

>bad reviews on RT just because it isn't another insipid Marvel Studios movie

Anon. The best word I can use to describe this film is "clumsy." It has some great moments, but there's also a whole lot of meh. It felt formulaic, and they shouldn't have made a joke about how the third movie is always worse, while making the worst movie in the trilogy. It also looked like they really cheaped out on the computer effects. Oh, and Charles constantly fumbling his words around Moira was fucking infantile.

Phoenix was GOAT, though.

First giving Disney back full merchandise rights for the films in exchange for full revenue on the films. Then getting caught with their pants down due to the email scandal revealing their bigoted company culture as well s insulting several hollywood stars and important international figures including the fucking president. And of course how they fucked up the Amazing franchise with their plans for a Sinister 6 and Aunt May movie effecting production on amazing 2.

By the time Disney and Sony came to discuss Spiderman again, SONY had lost virtually any leverage they had, leading to the disgraceful and said deal they got out of it. FOX isn't nearly in as bad a shape as SONY and is most likely still pissed about losing Star Wars and thus has no reason to deal.

it was painful enough the first time, thanks but no thanks

but just throwing around the word shitty is dumb, i'll admit that. It's a really bad movie: the general plot and the pacing,the casting, the acting and the characterization, the design, from the sets to the costumes, and the cgi were all off at various degrees, between below average to terrible.

Cap is boosted. Bucky's boosted as well. Comics 616Cap is peak, and MCU Cap is way stronger than super-soldier UltimateCap. Comics Bucky AFAIK is just human with some infinity(?) and the arm. MCU Bucky has serum.

I think MCU Tony is boosted somehow as well. Avengers armor had him tanking and absorbing a Mjolnir lightning blast. Varies though - IM3 suits were pure shit.

MCU Clint seems on-par/slightly-better than 616Clint but we haven't really seen him do shit much with other weapons.

MCU Spidey seems spot-on though.

Other than the Quicksilver and Weapon X bits I was never excited to be watching the movie. The action was weak and Apocalypse felt so flat, and the horsemen always just standing around..It was a bad movie

At least BvS gave me some serious grins during the action and had a great score and cinematography.

65 million for the three days, should be 76 million including tomorrow. Not spectacular but not a bomb either, at least not yet. Alice bombed hard though. If you were looking forward to all those live-action Disney fantasy movies, there might be some cancellations.

>The latest X-Men adventure easily topped the weekend, earning an estimated $65 million. It is on pace to pull in over $76 million over the four-day spell. That’s a solid start, but a significant drop off from the $110.5 million that the previous mutant team-up, “X-Men: Days of Future Past,” racked up over the 2014 Memorial Day holiday.

>Things were much bleaker for “Alice Through the Looking Glass.” The follow-up to 2010’s “Alice in Wonderland,” which racked up more than $1 billion during its run, stumbled out of the gate, bombing with $28.1 million and a projected $35 million over the four-day period. That’s a disastrous start for a film with an $170 million production budget.

No, Cinderella still did pretty well and Beauty and the Beast trailer got a huge amount of views.

They've been going about these movies the wrong way, but at least this one tried.

See, the most compelling thing about this movie was the new young mutants getting used to their powers and learning to work as a team. Scott falling hard for Jean, her growing more comfortable with her powers, Nightcrawler trying to help out however he can, Jubes being a snarky sass, and Peter being fucking Peter, fantastic.

I really could give less of a shit about Mystique and Apocalypse and augh. Even Storm seemed more interesting before Apocalypse showed up.

Like someone else said, it's like a slice of life mutant movie would be more interesting at this point. Like, I dunno, Mallrats but with mutants?
>>

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rFyHJ1pSyg
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFMyEOuTfxY
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kniQrk9jw0

they obviously want to develop the x-men as a team. I do think that it was a mistake that they cut the mall sequence, they should have cut either weapon x, or something else, as it's possible that it would definitely influence the reviews.

anyway, if there is one reason I don't want this movie to fail is that a failure would mean more Wolverine, Deadpool at the cost of everyone else
>>
>>83284605
I'd like to think that maybe since this was still being made while Deadpool was coming out and they weren't sure how that'd do, they'll start reconsidering how they do these movies now. Maybe they'll learn that having more of those fun team moments is a good thing, maybe the movies can focus more on the characters. Something as simple as them working against their general everyday racism stuff.

But you know they've established anti-mutant taskforces, and no matter who's helped with what, that apocalypes shit is going to make the rest of the world fucking INSANE. I really worry that they've escalated things too far and the scale could prohibit silly ground-level antics now.

Like, world-ending events tend to change things.
>>
>>83284605
The original idea of having Wolverine as field leader over Mystique would have been better. If they wanted to merge the two ideas, you could have Wolverine as teacher, but he and Xavier are captured by Apocalypse, accompanied by Archangel, Storm and Magneto. The 4 Horsemen could be mind controlled instead of being persuaded.

Mystique is at the X-mansion dropping off Nightcrawler and is still there talking with all the staff as the young X-men all sneak off to the mall. You keep the mall sequence, lose Weapon X and Psylocke, and have Jubilee join the crew as they all converge to get back Xavier and Wolverine. They get a plane and armor from Moira on the way.


Wolverine would then get his adamantium from Apocalypse, although I would keep the sequence shorter than Archangel getting his metal wings.

One thing that the movie should get credit for is that mutants are actually accepted until Apocalypse happen. It was refreshing to see mutants not being attacked by an angry mob.

Frankly, given that the movie ends with X-Men vs Sentinels, and you have Chuck ominously closing the doors to Danger Room, who knows what to expect.

>>83284865
The thing is Mystique was just there, and I'm not happy for Wolverine & The X-Men. Frankly, while there is a huge room for improvement, I'm happy with what we got. I don't think I would want Wolverine stealing the spotlight again, especially that they really were a team, and that the final battle really challenged to X-Men #1, when the rookie muties fought Magneto.

Can someone explain this to me? Is it just that people are tired of cape movies and or Fox's movies in general now?

I won't say that Apocalypse was all that special or anything, but it was no worse than Days of Future Past. That movie was a gigantic mess and yet it appears to be generally beloved or at the very least generally well liked.

My point being no matter which of the two movies you prefer, their actual quality are in no way that far from eachother. But the reception does appear to be that far from eachother.

And you got that. I can forgive that this movie had a huge focus on both of them, because this movie had to wrap the current trilogy, but also set up the next one. I think we all agree that it's about time that the X-Men get the proper spotlight.

Reading some commentaries and opinions, one stuck out a little more, I mean, imagine if the next movie starts with The X-Men playing baseball? That would be rad.

Days of Future Past suffered from its attempt to shuffle its major figures in the events of its story.
You had Xavier, Magnet, Wolverine, Mystique, and then the rest of the young mutants, and at last the antagonists. And the past and future versions of all of them.

And it's not as if you can't make movies with large casts or anything. I am just claiming that Days of Future Past had troubles with doing just that and that it suffered from attempting to do so in this case.

Meanwhile Apocalypse somewhat elegantly balanced what had been quite neatly divided into just three groups. You had the old mutants, the young mutants, and the antagonist mutants. And each of these groups were pretty united throughout with their share in the story all being relatively balanced throughout.
>>
>>83285264
Agreed so hard. The movie had problems - they always do - but this one felt like it was moving in the right direction. If they can listen to the criticisms that focus on the real issues (over-focus on large-scale action, not enough on the team factor that should be key to a SUPER HERO TEAM), they can make this work going forward.

Please, Fox, focus on the team. Focus on the heart of the group and build those characters. Make us CARE about them.

THEN have them fight giant monsters.
>>
>>83272025

>>
>>83285511
I guess is that because DOFP attempted to be 2deep4u and serious. Rewatching DOFP it was really heavy. There wasn't much moments for laughter, and it was heavily political.

Apocalypse have completely different tone. I would even argue that it was very MCU. Notice that the main villain has simplistic goal, and is not really developed beyond some speeches that have pathos. You also had a huge fight at the end of the movie, not unlike The Avengers, and not unlike The Avengers, the destruction didn't have much impact, and you didn't have much shown in regards to casualties, and so on. There were some quips in that movie as well. You know, I would probably go on, but it really feels like they were inspired by The Avengers

I think they're getting hammered in reviews because they're caught in between the classic Fox style and the Quipfest style. The RT consensus pretty much says so.

>>83285511
You're overstating things. The only characters that matter in DoFP are Mystique, Magneto and Xavier. The movie revolves around their relationships and their choices. It mostly focuses on Xavier being broken and un-heroic but it also features attempted redemptions of Mystique and Magneto. The heroes win when they convince Mystique to try heroism again, not when they destroy the aggressors. Everyone else exists to show the consequences of their actions.

If Apocalypse was supposed to introduce the new mutants and get people interested in them as a team while phasing out the old cast rhen did it do its job well? Too well?

Because Magneto, X, Beast and Mystique is a prime complaint while the praise is for the new xmen and that people want to see them come back

But he didn't matter. He was locked out of the action. His role was to represent the potential Xavier had. At the end of the day, it's not Wolverine that convinces Xavier to try again, it's a combination of Mystique and future Xavier.

He was more of a plot device than a character in that movie at least until the very end.

I wouldn't argue against Wolverine not mattering much in the movie. But he has about as much screen time as the other major characters.
And since he doesn't really matter, he probably shouldn't have.

Everything about this seems like it's antithetical to Days of Future's Past in terms of tone and design - probably having more in common with Last Stand.

So I never saw it.

Is it any good?
>>
>>83287742
But it's been almost 16 years, how can these movies bring "something different to the table" when they've been recycling the same themes and plots for this long? How many times do we have to see Magneto going through a family loss before it's officially repetitive? How many times does Logan have to realize he should be less of a raging asshole and join a cause? Xavier trying to convince everyone that his morals are good? We've had 3 different Strykers and related X-weapon programs, 3 (pointless) Jubilees, Xavier lost the ability to walk twice in the same trilogy...

It depends on where you're filing it and what it's called.

In California for example it's a DV-100 Request for Domestic Violence Restraining Order; but despite the title of the form, domestic violence is not defined in law as solely including physical violence - it includes harassment, it includes behaviors which intimidate whether they're directed at the claimant or not. This is in line with most jurisdictions descended from the English legal system - "violence" has never solely been defined as physical, assault doesn't only include wailing on someone, and so on.

Once you fill out a DV-100, that is submitted to the courts. You (or a recognized person representing you, such as a lawyer or a California police officer, which is often the case) must serve a copy of this notice to the individual mentioned. They then have the right of reply and a court date is set; if they wish to contest anything you've said, that's when they can do it. In the meantime you're both prohibited from contacting one another, even by proxy. If you can't substantiate your claims at that court date, the temporary restraint is lifted and it's no longer anything to do with the court. I believe it's supposed to be a hearing within 30 days of serving notice. There are also different things you can ask the court to do - like take away any firearms owned by the accused party, not come within X feet, and so on - these may or may not be granted even if the order is upheld.

It is most certainly not a he-said-she-said thing where the richest party wins because they have the most lawyers - the burden of proof remains. In many cases, however, because there's already a police record, it's open-shut.

That's just for domestic violence. There are other types of restraint that just California's code allows for; most states separate domestic from other situations (because domestic violence is complex and often requires more consideration from judges experienced in dealing with it).

>X-Men: Apocalypse is currently on the receiving end of a brutal critical pile-on, currently rating just 47 percent on RottenTomatoes. That’s more than 40 points lower than Captain America: Civil War, which wasn’t much better, if at all, than X-Men: Apocalypse depending how you rank a mostly dull movie with an unconventional ending and one good scene (Cap) vs. a watchable movie with a few good scenes and a terrible ending (X-Men).

>>83288235
That's a truly awful second week from the international, and a weekend take that's $23m lower than even what FOX were projecting - and they were by no means aiming high among the predictions overnight Friday.

That equates to a $90m week 1, which means at the end of week 4 the gross will be around $169m domestic, to which you can add 5% for the remaining 8 weeks of release in most cases, ending on $177m domestic. Under $200m is death for this thing, especially with that overseas being so low.

I mean by all means have a go at OP for his rampant faggotry but at least try and understand what you're posting. This movie will not even make $500m; it needed to make $600m to break even.

It is dead.

If X-Men Apoc had been better, maybe they would have left Deadpool 2 to do its thing, but now it's gonna be all hands on deck, executive-wise, to try and get their names and influence on that movie.

Also, it's pretty funny, in a way
Disney has Feige
Warner Brothers has Snyder
FOX has Ryan Reynolds.

That's just ludicrous to read.

it is still different than what Disney is pulling with marvel right now, come on you cant honestly say you want disney to take over x-men, that would destroy the quality in films more than it is already. MCU is safe kiddie stuff that doesnt offend nobody, yes it has great action ( surprisingly I enjoyed apocalypse's action more than Civil war's). X-men's themes are getting repetitive I agree with magnus and xavier but this is why I believe the focus on the next x-men will belong to cyclops and company,....you know...the X-men.

I agree on jubilee's, what the fuck singer. give us more!

fuck you anon I want more x-men and I actually like Bryan Singer's approach to it, much more meaty than the russo's approach which is basically non-existent, just copy the comic book panels.

Never said that, although i can see the potential

>MCU is safe kiddie stuff that doesnt offend nobody
Yeah yeah, you guys always say this, so much that you end up convincing yourselves this is actually true and make claims like "i bet they'll be too afraid to adapt Lady Death!" when in reality she's been already mentioned in Avengers and confirmed for IW. "Nobody died in Civil War!", tell that to Maria Stark's snapped neck
>>
I saw X-Men yesterday and I enjoyed it. It's biggest problem is letting scenes finish. There a part near the end of the movie where it jumps between two things happening and goes from one, jumps to the other, jumps back to finish the previous scene, and jumps back to finish that last scene. The first 20-30 minutes are legitimately really exposition heavy because they have to build up a TON of things in that 20-30 minutes. And I did hate that last bit of the ending fight because it's so heavy handed with "the reveal" but even with all that I still liked it. Hell, I probably liked it more than DoFP. Oh and Fassbender is fucking great in this movie and so is Mcavoy. Those two steal every scene they are in.

Sorry for the review i guess. Just giving my thoughts.
>>
>>83289884
Different anon here, personally I think MCU would actually do alright with X-men. I feel like they've always did better with the whole team dynamic, and a lighter tone would fit the younger characters better than it has all those 40-year-old dudes.
>>
>>83286763
He was a bridge to gap two eras, and he did exactly that, nothing more, and he had no unnecessary scenes.

Say what you will, but DotFP had a good narrative structure, whily Apocalipse feels like a bundle of scenes, especially by the end.

And many characters feel shoehorned and boring.

I mean - Quicksilver in DotFP was kinda there, but he had great moments and characterisation.

Angel and Psylocke had none of that.

Mystique is like a Wolverine to DotFP, but she is played by a talantless and ugly as actress, and thus feels worse.

DotFP had plot holes (you can't do a time travel movie without them), but Apocalypse had more and it was a straightforward story, so it's unforgivable.
>>
>>83288270
It you quoted the review, then no, it's not spot-on, since both movies are watchable and I also can call Apocalypse "dull".

Civil War felt way more different than the new X-men movie.
>>
>>83290366
I'd argue that Disney's approach would benefit the X-Men, and it has with Deadpool: Characters before actors and story before spectacle. Keep to the spirit of the characters, they have become famous/liked in the comics for a reason.

But I disagree that the MCU's tone would fit it, or that the X-Men would fit the MCU. I liked Deadpool's vague destruction of the highways and helicarriers. For some reason I associate the X-men with a slightly dirtier world, with factories and junkyards and bunkers. Basically 90's aesthetic without the 90's art-style. That would contrast better with the bright costumes and general team dynamics and discrimination. The MCU is a bit too happy for them to live in, for the most part.

I think they could do with their own separate universe that had execs willing to let it grow over time instead of jewing it up every single time.
>>
I'm fucking sick with how the new movies are pushing Mystique so hard on us. I cringed every time people said she was a hero.
>>
>>83290688
She's done now. They can't afford her on a new contract and her old one just ran out.

If you see her again it will be as archive footage or a non-headline star.
>>
>>83289343
honestly, they should just let reynolds do his thing. he earned that much.

>>
>>83292034
Yeah, but it's the only ripe fruit in their super-hero tree. No doubt all the execs are going to pick at it.

I hope Ryan has enough of a pull to tell them all to fuck off, but FOX has never let something good last, superheroes or otherwise.

never been slapped or punched before have you? bruising gets worse the next day when the swelling goes down, then gets better over time. yes bruises can appear a few days later as purple marks. but immediately there's redness and swelling. you don't go from nothing at all and then day 3 fucking magic purple everywhere. police are trained to notice even a small amount of redness, any tiny mark and one person gets arrested in CA.

>>
>>83296791
I'm not shocked so much as I'm disappointed. I didn't know she'd be in the movie at all but the way they introduced her (despite never referring to her by name) made it seem like she'd have mattered more, or at least gotten to come along on the adventure until they just up and ditched her at the mansion.
