X-MEN Apocalypse (Official Thread)

They need to switch up the plot too cause every movie is basically either "We need to get rid of the humans" or "We need to get rid of the mutants"

And every movie Xavier says he's never felt a force this powerful

Score is now at 59% at RT.

Score keeps going up.

I think it will climb to the mid 60s by release

 

[Norrin Radd]

Why do they keep jumping so many years in between each movie?

Professor X, Magneto, Beast, Havoc haven't aged in 20 years

And the next movie supposedly set in the 90s. Why not the next one just be set a couple years after Apocalypse

But their hair is different!

To be fair though that's pretty much been the theme for the X-Men for their entire 50+ years of existence.

Movie was all over the place. Easily Singer's weakest X-Men movie and one of the overall franchise. Just too many characters and no real main one.

It felt like Magneto was originally meant to be the sole villain, but then they did a rewrite to include Apocalypse.

Tried to be grand and "epic" but it just fell flat and felt empty.

Intro was my favourite part (movie would have been great if it was like that throughout) along with Wolverine and a part with Magneto.

Nightcrawler and Sansa were good

5/10.

OT - Wolverine 3 has one of least impressive casts I've ever seen. it's full of B level TV actors.

Now that I've seen it I can say I was truly prophetic when I made this:

X-Men: Flattopalypse

Alright, it's not a bad film per sé but it just has nothing going on for it. For every good scene there's a shytty one, and for every good and shytty scene there are a dozen that fall completely flat. Magneto's character arc is laughably bad, yet it's still the only one that still feels like it matters, Apocalypse is as shytty as we all felt he was going to be and at no point did it feel like Oscar Isaac could salvage it. Then again, nobody gets anything to work with so first class actors (pun intended) like Fassbender, McAvoy, Lawrence and Byrne are practically sleep walking through this. It makes for a movie that never feels like you should care for anything that happens in it, not the worst crime but certainly the most boring one.

It's not lit?

 

[Still Benefited]

This shyt out already?

 

[Erik Killmonger]

Damn not hearing anything good about this movie aside from Scott being done right finally I would put more of the blame on that fukken hack Kinberg than on Singer tbh

Do Storm and Psylocke really have no lines?
How is the action?

Storm has like 10 lines at best, Psylocke might literally not say more than 4. Lots of CGI destruction and a bunch of action built around stuff already done before in the previous X-movies.
