Yeah, everyone's going nuts over either: 1) cosmetic choices in the film (almost always a weakness in Singer flms); or 2) an actresses "real world" personality (which should have nothing to do with her performance).
Those things are distant, tertiary concerns for me with this film personally. Is Singer telling a good story? Is he telling a good X-Men story? Do the actors do their jobs well, and do the effects and aesthetics work in the context of the movie? And is he properly examining these characters like Cyclops and Jean Grey who have too often been given the shaft in movies thus far? That's what I care about. I couldn't care less what Olivia Munn does in her spare time, or how annoying she was when she was allowed to adlib on G4. Unless Singer extends her the same courtesy here, and allows her to ham it up, which frankly I don't see happening.
If Arnold Schwarzenegger or Bruce Willis admitted to raping a kid, would you throw away their movies?
I want to say yes, but I am admittedly still a huge fan of Chinatown despite Polanski essentially raping a 13-year old girl. If I could beat him within an inch of his life with impunity, I can't say that I wouldn't.If Arnold Schwarzenegger or Bruce Willis admitted to raping a kid, would you throw away their movies?
I really hope this is Quicksilver all over again, where everyone hated it until they saw it onscreen and did a 180 on it.
Having revisited DOFP this week with the Rogue cut I will say that the QS scene still kicks ass.
I see now why people hate Munn, but the few things I've seen her in where there's actual acting, she does a very good job.
It's objectively more understandable to be upset about Apoc's costume than this:

She's a ***** and all but she's not a bad actress.
well Jubilee is kind of cute but I was more thinking about bread face over here...
Olivia Munn is a succubus.
I hated the new Sentinels initially, but in the end I didn't mind them at all. They at least portrayed them in the right way and being a true threat, since they were essentially unkillable.
I'm praying she deep throats something in this movie. We can rule out the director though.
Terminator Genysis and Die Hard 8 need no additional reasons to be thrown away.
Or Singer is just too great of a director to allow visually bad ass villains in his films.
Yep. HAIL mighty Photoshop!
Her hair is supposed to be purple
Look at the EW cover pic.
Best mock up
They'll obviously CGI him otherwise Apocalypse clearly has a Napoleon Complex
Closer look. He has got the cheek lines but instead of just being lines the look to be done to re-shape his face
nvm
I doubt they'd release these photos if they planned to CGI this shot. This will most likely be how he appears in the film. What I don't get is how much taller is he on the EW cover...
