X-MEN Apocalypse (Official Thread)

[Vandelay]

Movie was fine. Not great, maybe slightly under DOFP. Apocalypse wasn't very impressive, but there's been multiple interpretations of him so I'm not overly disappointed.

Shame about the box office though.

Fox don't have the balls to do AoA

Even with this current X-Men they really don't capture the true Xmen social commentary problem like it should.

Them nikkaz just walked in the mall and watched a movie and it was all good? Singer has completely dropped the ball on that aspect of the X-men which is the core of their being.

Lmao word i was thinking they was going to get nightcrawler the hologram thing but nah this nikka just walked out of return of the jediin blue face with the thriller jacket in the 80s like fukk it

I feel terrible for supporting this lazy shyt but it wasnt as bad as the critics say. I just hate that apocalypse was nerfed. Since when does he need fukking xavier to conquer the world?

The last battle was all in the commercials too and pac didnt have any of his ether quotes. This is where i gotta stan disney for having character build ups because trying to introduce 2 many characters and make us care in under 3 hours is too much

It's the movies..it won't match canon..Winter Soldier and Cap beat down Iron Man? Wtf...that was absurd. So they were overpowered in Civil War for that fight..they got Quicksilver fast as Flash? Cool..

Im nit complaining. Just something i noticed. Must be a quicksilver fan lol. He was more QS'ish in avengers 2

His look and everything? Sure but he didn't have the impact of this one. Never got there.

This shyt was boring as hell, I honestly like BvS better than this shyt. X-Men fans deserve better.....

Spoiler: First Thoughts

They made Mags a family man...
His fam gettin murked was so damn predictable...

Storm's horrible accent

Apocalypse was creepy as hell is this film, and I don't mean creepy like I mean creepy like a damn pedophile, molester

They knew this film was trash when they made it, that's why they had Jean Grey sneak diss it when they were leaving the movies, talmbout the 3rd film is always the worst.

And what the fukk did Jubilee even do?? Why was she in the film??

Yea i mean quicksilver never looked like a slacker. The silver hair is all they got right. The scenes are awesome but i really liked QS in avengers 2 and was upset when he died

Well he was a FAMILY man...they got just the order wrong compared to the comics version. He left the camps barely alive and skinny with Magda, married her, and had a daughter named Anya. She got burned alive in a fire caused by jealous Russians who saw him use his powers when he was wronged out of money. He had no control of his powers at that point unlike the movie version and of course he was already Magneto in the movie too.

Jean was talking about Last Stand....

Pretty bad at the box office. Think Fox might start pushing Deadpool a lot more into the X-Men universe, especially with Hugh Jackman leaving.

The little smear campaign for this movie on this site and everyone else on the Net..it worked. But will that makes better? Of course not. I have ZERO desire to see fukking Gambit...have not seen Deadpool yet and if Fassbender doesn't come back, I won't be watching any comic films except the next Avengers/Black Panther/Harley's Suicide Squad/Wonder Woman. That will be about it.

yeah but we know the Film version isn't a parallel to the comic version. And I knew that Jean meant Last Stand, but dammit that quote could go for XMen: Apocalypse too.

 

[theworldismine13]

Then I will say that outside of Apocalypse's main horsewoman, they didn't use white people? :maany:

Throw me a line here

I can throw you a book





all I saw was some Arab looking people and a lot of white people with tans and like 2 black people

 

[Jefe Blanco]

7/10

Apocalypse was weak af and was as misused as Phoenix was in last stand.

The end scene with the new uni's tho

 

[Clark Wayne]

Damn, it might not even make $600 million. It might end up being the lowest grossing comic book film of the year.

 

[Dillah810]

I just got back from seeing it. I really liked it. It was a lot better than what the critics rate it. Very entertaining throughout. I really like the new team of Cyclops, Jean, and Nightcrawler. We finally got to see a glimpse of the Phoenix. It was cool to see a fight on the astral plane on the big screen, especially since, a few minutes prior I thought to myself "it would be cool if Psylocke and Jean paired off to fight so that they could fight on the astral plane". Some of the cgi was wonky, but still not as bad some people were saying (the shipyard looked laughibly bad tho). I don't understand the backlash for Storm and Psylocke not having many lines in the film. It never bothered me while watching it, plus they weren't main characters. Secondary and Tertiary characters don't get many lines in general, and they were kinda in-between secondary and tertiary characters. Also Mystique leading the X-Men makes sense for the story this movie told, so I'm not mad at it. I need to see it again to properly rank it, but right now I say it's my 3rd favorite X-film behind Days of Future Past and X2.

As far as the after credits scene

Spoiler

We all know that it points to Mr Sinister, but I also think that it points to X-23 as well since Wolverine's dna was put in the suitcase.

 

[FlyRy]

The wolverine part was so unnecessary

Maybe, but it sure as hell made me hyped for wolverine 3. They pushed the boundaries of pg13 and the next one will be R so
