The portrayal of cyclops was awful..acting or not the writing was off as many said bcz he was a total ***** and thats not who/what cyclops is. he's the damn leader of the x-men, brave and strong and a beast (not literally ;))…

In regards to the Michael B jordan il go in with an open mind, and again he's a helluva actor which I'm well aware of (fruitvale station, the wire)..
 
I disagree. I think they just wanted racial diversity in the group and changed Johnny's race just for that reason. It has worked in some cases (Jackson as Fury) but for me personally, the fact that Sue and Johnny are brother and sister makes this change awkward. Where does it stop? A latino Batman, a Chinese Iron Fist, a White Luke Cage? I say stick with the comic characters history and roots. Most of these movies take quite a few liberties with the characters to begin with. There's no need to change the characters race too.

Yes, just copy the script. Easy haha
 
I think this new guy will be fine. They'll make it work. It's definitely hard to see right now, but I always think that way and it always (well, mostly) works out.

Yeah. I mean, people give Singer grief for Cyclops. But that was a decent casting, the writing was just terrible. And look and singers other casting... Wolverine, professor x, magneto, Jean grey, bobby, etc. All great. Storm wasn't too bad either.

I do think Singer gets a little too much credit though at times. I think he's done a lot right with X-Men. Not perfect, but a worthy effort for sure. I like that Fox keeps building upon the foundation. Gives you something to hold on to rather than a reboot every 10 years.
 
must break chapter's infinity post......movie apocalypse probably sucks by the law of this thread

I shall live on!!! I'm like Apocalypse, timeless and all that stuff. :lol

I think he'll turn out well on screen. They got plenty of time to get their act together. Big shoes to fill though....literally.
 
Well, I ended up shipping back both the defective replacement head and body, and the flawed original (two huge boxes). Hopefully I will be able to pick up a reg or ex later down the road in better condition. This is a great statue executed with poor QC. Congrats to all that got a keeper.

So long Apoc Ex 576, I Hardly Knew Ye...
 
What was the problem with them?

Sucks to here. At least you're getting your money back though.
 
Sold my reg for under retail, need to make room and space for other.
 
Still love my mine. Did some rearranging in the collection this week and he really adds to my X Men collection. I think ss got the size just right on him

Exclusive or regular?

Price on this will skyrocket come new X-Men movie. I'm predicting it now. Mark this post down. Send it to the bank.
 
I got the exclusive. The chainsaw is awesome but I got tired of its height. With the plasma cannon he fits nicely in his designated besta shelf.

I like the chainsaw, but I agree. I think the canon looks better and is more practical for display purposes. Classic Apoc.
 
Finally got my ex replacement. It has a glob of paint on the shoulder, scratch on back of arm and a dark spot which may be paint on his bicep. IMG_20150209_181442.jpgIMG_20150209_171405.jpgIMG_20150123_110230.jpg
