X-Men: Days of Future Past

[pturtle]

Have you ever read Days of Future Past?

Yea, that was the comic this movie is inspired by, not the script.

 

[Deckard]

Have you ever read Days of Future Past?

I'm going with no...

What's that ship in the back? Sentinel transport?

 

[hunnipot85]

So I'm assuming that's her prisoner outfit from the scene that was cut?

 

[Snake Plissken]

It would have to be, considering it doesn't go with the formula of the other outfits. They never really did what they should of with her character, such wasted potential.

 

[The Ween]

Geez, you people are grumpy!

Looking forward to this movie.

Then shhhhh. If you haven't read it, you've got no clear idea what the trailers mean, so to you, comments will seem nonsensical. However, if you had read it, you'd understand that Wolverine is replacing Kitty as the center of the story and main protagonist (and rightfully so given Jackman's the RDJ of the FOX franchise). If that's not the case, and the script has nothing to do with the comic, given all that they've shown, then Singer's using just the name and making some asstastic bastardization that's going to be an uncleanable **** stain worse than Origins, in the chonies of FOX's X-franchise.

 

[Snake Plissken]

I don't think this can be nearly as weak as Origins was. ATM the suits suck, the shown Sentinel sucks, that's all we know

Oh no, I read it. I know he’s replacing Kitty, and honestly I never liked her going back anyway. Also saw the Animated series version with Bishop, and Wolverine and X-men. But I said it before, Jackman going back makes sense business wise, and story wise. Doesn’t mean he will be the main character.

They are taking that story, and making their version out of it. The comic wasn’t the only version of DOFP. I always preferred the time traveler be Bishop anyway.

It'll be closer to the comic. We've already seen Charles talking to Logan, telling him to convince the younger version. That sets him up as the focal point for both the past and the future.

Also Empire Mag tweeted this

For those asking if our Rogue cover means Rogue is in the movie, a definitive statement from Bryan Singer and Simon Kinberg is in the issue.

I don't mind Warpath's look.

I don't mind Warpath's look.

I don’t know who the actor is playing him, but the costume is pretty accurate to the comics.

 

[kanine]

These costumes are just bleh. Ian looks like Darth Vader without his helmet. They should have just modified the First Class outfits, and kept the black leather outfits from the first 3 movies for the future versions, at least I've grown to like those.

 

[screamingmetal]

I don’t know who the actor is playing him, but the costume is pretty accurate to the comics.

They found a way to at least give him his eye mask, and it works. Just copy what they did on Arrow.
Warpath isn't the hardiest look to translate to film though, and the same applies to Wolverine, just give them a T shirt with their classic designs on them and you have something that at least tries to bring something from their comic looks to life.
Like this:

The blue jeans also tie into his costume colors nicely.
It's not hard to bring something from his costume into this.

 

[screamingmetal]

Kitty Pryde at least looks very similar to how she looked in the DOFP comic:

Yeah, no thanks. I think the leather outfit from the first films incorporating the "stripes" was a better decision than that. While Warpath's look is highly reminiscent of the comic, it's the lack of physicality that hurts it. It's like casting Ron Howard's brother as Strong Guy.
