I understand it from a business perspective but from a story perspective its weird to see Mystique leading the X-Men.
Trailer looks more interesting but I feel like this will fall short of Days of Future Past. I still feel like that is one of the best Superhero films out there. I feel like this will be above X-Men 1 and Wolverine but not as good as X2 or First Class. As long as it is better than X3 or Origins I'll be pretty happy
k seriously... they showed the EXACT same shot of psylocke cutting through the car at the beginning of the trailer and the end. Do they really not have any other action scenes with her to showcase her?
so i just watched the version posted here and it seems to be 20 seconds shorter than the one on youtube (which is the one i watched and was referring too) EDIT: ok this is mental. it opens with an edited down 10 second version of the entire trailer, giving you all the money shots. Then go on to show you the whole trailer reusing all those shots again. WHY
I'll be okay with this movie if Magneto is the best part of it. Can we just cancel this movie and get a Magneto stand alone film?
Unfortunately, I kinda expected as much since day one. I'm just happy to see her at all! Though I'd definitely love to see her have a major role in one of these films. Maybe work her into New Mutants? Did you know that she appeared in a deleted scene in X2?
I've been noticing it a lot too and it's definitely annoying. Coming up in ten seconds after snippets of the thing you're about to watch is the thing you're about to watch!
i dont get it...is it because they assume people dont have the attention span to watch a full 3 minutes trailer, so they need to grab your attention in the first 10 seconds with lots of huge exciting shots?
This dropped yesterday. Looks alright, I don't know why, but out of all the super hero movies. X-men is probably wearing thin with me the most. The only good casting choices they've made in my opinion are Wolverine, Deadpool, Xavier (old). They need a restart button. Hopefully this can deliver. Way more stoked for Civil War.
I somewhat agree but also love both people they've had as Magneto, with Michael Fassbender probably being my favorite X-Men casting outside of Wolverine. (I also think Liev Schreiber as Sabretooth and Ellen Page as Kitty Pryde are like Henry Cavill as Superman: great casting that their films absolutely wasted.)
You're right, I do like Michael as a young Magneto. Forgot him, but most of the casting I've always been meh about. I just hope this can live up to my expectations. Especially growing up with the 90's animated series, which they're "pulling from" That's a tall order.
McKellen was a great fucking Magneto. What happened to those rumors that he was the only OG cast member returning for Apocalypse? I remember after DoFP there was a lot of stuff swirling about Patrick Stewart I think mentioning that Ian had been asked to return for Apoc but not him, but it was alright because he was discussing something else with Fox/Singer, which I'm assuming ended up being Wolverine 3.
Fassbender beats him. Not overall as an actor, but his Magneto is excellent. The fuming anger he brings to the role fits the character's backstory very well.
It keeps opening to a random Alien article for me. Even when I scroll down and see a link to the X-Man article.
I wonder if/when they recast Wolverine for future Xmen films if the fans will be receptive to another adaption of or actor portraying the character. Like the Joker or even Spider Man.
