X-Men: Apocalypse - May 27, 2016

[RIDDICK]

Hoult and Isaac are ****in' hillarious!
Lawrence is a walkin' cringe machine.

Awesome blooper reel, way better than the Revolutionary War one.

Professor X at 2:37

Really good stuff in there.

Holy **** it gets funnier as it goes, I can't stop laughing, one of the best blooper reels i've ever seen.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

my gawd, Apocalypse looks so goofy

.... SMH

 

[Rulk]

I like these costumes, they should've been featured in the movie a lot more

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

Those look nice. Can't wait for Sinister to be played by another midget actor in horrible makeup.

 

[jye4ever]

Had those costumes been used in XM1 our heads would've exploded.

 

[karamazov80]

I really don't like those costumes for the most part. Nightcrawler and Storm are nice, though.

 

[RIDDICK]

Quicksilver's the only good one.

 

[Darth Snoopy]

Had those costumes been used in XM1 our heads would've exploded.

I liked them and it's a shame that we only saw them for a minute.

 

[YoNoSe]

I like that Cyclops thinks he's on the Y-Men.

I would be happy with those looks for the sequel. Hopefully they don't go back to all black.

Is Singer involved?

 

[fosing]

cyclops puts the Y in YMCA.lolz

 

[dw316]

Yeah, I think I might wait for them to release a trilogy set, or are they making more beyond the new recent 3? I like the silhouette of the 4 horsemen.

 

[karamazov80]

I don't think anything has been announced. Deadpool sequel the only sure thing. But I think it's probable we'll see more once Wolvie gets recast.

I just was able to see this over the weekend, first time. I had lowered my expectations to an unprecedented low, and I actually wound up liking it. There are a few things I wonder if that is how they transpired in the comics but overall I thought it was ok. Turner as Jean was a bit weak at times (I just don't think she's that great an actress, NOR is Sansa a fave character of mine on GOT so that may be playing into it). I thought Munn was ok as Psyloche and I'm starting to like te guy who plays Quicksilver. Still not a huge Cyclops fan (never have been) so it doesn't matter who they get to play him, he'll never really impress me. Ok I give him 'OG' status with the team but still, never a huge fan.

Yes I believe they are setting up the 'new' xmen actors, which makes me wonder, now that Macavoy and Fassbender have done the roles 3x already, how many more will they go for before they need to 'reboot' it again (or at least for those 2 roles). The Wolverine cameo was decent and loved that they stayed true to the comics for the weapon x outfit, that was a neat touch. I personally liked it better than CA: CW but I know that goes against the flow. Way better than BvS as well. Solid 8.5/10 in my book.

Question for the comic readers, re: storm. Was she originally part of Apocalypse's entourage? I knew Angel was but i thought Storm was with some African tribe or something?

 

[kryptonianmutie]

I think kara can answer this better but I know Storm and Psylocke weren't part of Apocalypse's horsemen when Angel became Archangel. I don't know who the others were but they definitely weren't Storm and Psylocke.

 

[Victοr]

When Apoc first appeared in X-Factor, he had a bunch of no-name Horsemen. Archangel went to him after he lost his wings during the attack at the Morlock tunnels at the hands of Sinister's forces. Psylocke, Storm and Magneto weren't part of his Horsemen, with only Psylocke becoming Death for a while after a long time (Remender's X-Force).

 

[karamazov80]

His followers in the comic initially weren't horsemen at all, but just random metahumans (not sure if they were even mutants?) that he persuaded to work on his behalf. I don't think the Horsemen concept went anywhere until the Simonsons took over. But the writers didn't know where they were really going with him initially. Yes, I think Angel/Archangel was the only well know member of the first group of Horsemen.
