X-MEN Apocalypse (Official Thread)

[Animal House]

Not excited for this but I'll still be in attendance like everyone else. The thing with all the X movies is the action is weak. We'll never get a accurate story telling but thats Hollywood, at least get the action properly choreographed. Blade, Watchmen, and the Avengers had ill fight scenes. Besides that I hope its dope

Man if they could voice over Apocalypse with the dude that did his voice in X-Men TAS that would be

Only problem is I don't know of anybody who been able to bring someone back from the dead since Jesus

If the Russo Bros were involved...this would not be a problem

The first viewing of this trailer had me excited. Subsequent viewings don't hold up though. All of the smoke and mirrors with the fancy dramatic music and fast editing becomes very apparent. But it is just a trailer so . I know I'll wind up seeing it based off of the strength of the last movie. Not expecting much though because I'm still not feeling Jen Lawrence as Mystique. Why can't they bring back Rebecca Romijn?

This is why the movie will fail, they let JLaw do whatever the fukk she wants

Jennifer Lawrence Confirms She's Blue For A Little Bit In X-Men: Apocalypse

With the release of X-Men: Apocalypse's first trailer this week, many X-fans are asking, "Why isn't Mystique blue?" It's because the make-up is a lot of work and very uncomfortable for the actress charged with bringing Raven to life on screen, Jennifer Lawrence.

However, Lawrence recently revealed she will, in fact, show-off Mystique's famous blue skin in Apocalypse. "I am blue in it, a little bit," Larence told CinemaBlend. "I put my foot down as much as I could. [But they were very, very nice to me."

Lawrence wasn't open to spilling any more details about her role in the film just yet but at least we know we'll see the Mystique we've known for years despite not seeing the blue make-up in the Apocalypse trailer. Apocalypse marks Lawrence's last go as Mystique, so hopefully whoever takes over finds the make-up a bit more comfortable.

already know the bytch is gonna be phoning it in

The more I think about it, X-men would probably be better off as a live-action series. If Marvel ends up getting it back, that's something they should look into. (even though probably won't happen until we're all or )They could cover a lot of stories and characters you wouldn't normally have time to focus on in a two hour movie

Regardless of who owns the rights, I just want to see this piff done justice in live action

(to be fair, Days of Future Past is still solid and arguably the best of the movies. Even if the comic is still better IMO)

This is the last X-Men movie she'll be in. It's a blessing and curse in one.

I don't blame her. IIRC that blue stuff was making her sick and throwing up blue shyt. It ain't safe to be in blue all day for 3-6 months.

she's not even covered in body paint for the most part. It's a suit

They guy who played Nightcrawler in X2 didn't come back because he hated the make-up. They winged the make-up for Marv in Sin City 2 because Mickey Rourke hated sitting through make-up and working with all that shyt on his face. So no surprises here really, I bet if you low-key asked Ron Perlman about it he'd probably admit working in make-up is fukking shyt as well, and his whole career has been based on it.

One thing i've noticed with how Fox does there stuff compared to Marvel and what little we've seen of DC so far is that Fox doesn't really use their big budget for wide spread dbz-like slug fests and big team battles like the MCU & DCU do.

Not to say it's worse or better, as its more a stylistic choice... Fox seems to lean more on standalone "character feats", i.e. Magneto with the coin thing/lifting the stadium/stopping the falling x-jet; nightcrawler at the white house; the whole quicksilver sequence; prof x at the end of that last wolverine film, etc. This has the desired effect as i remember the audience in my theaters always cheered or applauded during those moments...

...but for me personally, after the past few years of seeing superman vs the krptonians, hulk vs iron man/thor/everybody, and the opening sequence of AoU where we see nothing but superhero fukkery (plus the final fights in both Avenger films)... it did make this x-men trailer seem a bit bland to me.

Anyone who knows the comics knows that Colossus, Juggernaut, Apocalypse, even Rogue, etc can get down like Hulk and Doomsday, but obviously it's not that type of movie. On the plus side, there were great moments of big team battle/tag teams in DoFP with Blink as the architect... so they may have built on that here for a later reveal.
