They did a good job with the design. It looks terrifying.

yup
reminds me of a combination of a shadowlurker from demon's souls

and an arch-vile from doom 2

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Where's all the Gaffers who bitched and moaned about the costumes for 4 months now? Trailer was hype, looks so good.

QS still looks ass as does past Magneto when he's in fully costumed, some of the future costumes look terrible too. (namely Storm's).

Not sure why Singer chose to go full on black leather.

Yeah, they nailed the design. Looks really creepy...

 

[Discotheque]

Future sentinel looked eh on the cover but damn, truly threatening in the trailer imo

 

[inm8num2]

Several of the costumes still look bad. Quicksilver is still ridiculous looking for starters.

 

[PhantomZone]

Can't wait, it's going to be an absolute belter (awesome) film.

huh, most of them still suck.

doesn't matter though, movie looks good.

 

[enigmatic_alex44]

[Miles Quaritch]

Nimrod/future sentinel really does look amazing.

Aww yeah.

If it makes you feel any better she's apparently hardly in the film due to her pregnancy and this trailer heavily implies she gets killed.

It outright shows it, but I expect it's misdirection and will have Magneto coming in for the save at the very last second.

Aww yeah.

CG fest, won't watch.

 

[yankeehater]

Technically cant they kill everyone in the future but still have them in this and other movies going forward?

 

[.GqueB.]

Yea you will. They'll have your money at some point.

They already have it.

 

[Discotheque]

Yeah probably. But future sequels are sticking with the first class cast only i think

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Pretty sure this will reboot the movieverse, but won't go back to the future but instead remain where the movie finishes and lead directly into AoA.

Is the fire guy Pyro?

Sunspot.

lol, i'll be there day one.

i liked x2 and first class, so i can't front. even if they killed my boy Cyclops. :'( RIP

 

[Discotheque]

We need a true boss cyclops. Either somehow marsden comes back and grows some balls (and pimpslaps wolverine for his first scene ) or we get a recast. and a good one too. Not like the xbrats in first class

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Guess who's back...

I actually want Marsden back, I feel he can pull the asshole leader off but he was never given the chance in all three movies. It was always the Wolverine show.

This... amazing how many will jump to conclusions over magazine covers...

 

[Bold One]

so giddy with excitement, I couldn't hide my glee at work

This is where you belong Bryan Singer, none of that DC crap

 

[Bold One]

Guess who's back...

who?

 

[The Outsider]

First Class is proof that bad marketing can hide a good movie. It just doesn't happen very often. Regardless, bad marketing is still bad marketing, no matter how you spin it.

 

[Discotheque]

My mind glossed over that kid and for a split second I thought cyclops fired that blast and I got really excited

Then I rewinded it

Marsden was great, he just had shit all to do.

Mardsen had the face for it, and was.. ok in X1 and X2. But he did fail in showing the tough side of Cyc lol.

I don't want them to focus on the scrubs from both FC or the others. I saw no Rogue, and Storm might die so that's a start. Then again, Storm should be an amazing character. Halle just sucks at the role.

EDIT: ^^ yeah they underwrote the fuck out of him too^^

got the vibe they kinda hated him tbh. Kill him off, then have Wolverine fuck his girl. Lol.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Is that woman Psylocke?

 

[Shaanyboi]

The line I keep coming back to is Magneto's "All those years wasted, fighting each other, Charles..."

I really want to see that final tragic scene between Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan... regretting the past 40+ years of their lives in the wake of the whole apocalyptic future. Cannot wait.

Is that woman Psylocke?

Blink. She throws dagger/shard things to create little portals.

 

[Skinny Pete]

who?

Is that Havok?

 

[Prompto]

Cyclops was supposed to take the leadership role and be front and center in the X3 Singer and his writers were planning. Too bad it didn't happen. Though I wonder if Cyclops would have still been killed in the third movie if Singer hadn't casted Marsden in Superman Returns.

 

[Discotheque]

Ian Mckellen and Patrick Stewart da gawds. So awesome that they've become such good friends as a result of filming this franchise together

I think they do joint stage plays too now. Also if you watch interviews McAvoy and Fassbender in particular seem pretty tight as well

 

[Toa TAK]

Is that Havok?

Yes.

 

[cazosozey]

I really wanna see Icemen turn beast mode instead of just turning blue.

 

[.GqueB.]

Guess who's back...

Nonsensical wire work?

 

[cazosozey]

double post

 

[Spinluck]

X1 might have some of the worst wire work I've ever scene.

 

[.GqueB.]

lol, i'll be there day one.

i liked x2 and first class, so i can't front. even if they killed my boy Cyclops. :'( RIP

I still don't think that mofo is dead because I don't trust deaths that happen off camera. Plus, I heard in the comics that Phoenix

Spoiler

incased him in some bubble so he would be protected from her wrath (I heard about this years ago and my details may be off or completely wrong).

lol, i'll be there day one.

Same. And I absolutely HATE these trailers. But I'll never turn down a comicbook film... ever.

I guess so, wait isnt havoc from the First Class crew, but he's brothers with Scott

You saw Jonah Hex?

 

[AgentOtaku]

To be fair, there are valid reasons to be nervous/worried about Singer.

He gets through an intensive pre-production with X3, solely to abandon ship and make Superman Returns.

Superman Returns is a confused, meandering production that costs a ton of money, and goes way over-schedule, resulting in a confused, meandering movie that, while recieved well initially, has been devalued quite a bit as time went on.

He made a smaller-scale suspense-drama with Valkyrie, which is cool, as his best work is almost always smaller-scale suspense-dramas. X-Men 2 seems like an anomaly when you look at his resume, really. It's the only big-budget action/adventure film of his that is really GOOD.

And then he made the ungainly mess that was Jack the Giant Slayer, which was also overstuffed and confused, as well as crazy expensive.

That fails, and he then returns to X-Men - to make a large, crazy expensive action/adventure movie, with yet another meandering production that we keep hearing is losing parts as it goes, chunks of it falling away with every bump and scrape it endures moving towards the finish line.

People being nervous about him makes sense. You can be nervous but still hopeful that the end result is a good movie. There's a lot of those that have been made under worse circumstances.

Gnarly post and I agree

 

[.GqueB.]

You saw Jonah Hex?

Should've added Big Budget. I don't even know what a Jonah Hex is.

 

[Toa TAK]

Should've added Big Budge. I don't even know what a Jonah Hex is.

That's okay. Because I don't either

Spoiler

anymore.

 

[jett]

X1 might have some of the worst wire work I've ever scene.

The action scenes in X1 are absolutely dreadful, that movie has not held up.

 

[.GqueB.]

That movie gets credit for paving the way (along with Spiderman) but yea it's more or less unwatchable now. Spiderman 1 holds up pretty well though.

 

[Discotheque]

Spider-Man 1 action holds up big time for me

Only reason I still really enjoy x1 is magneto and Xavier. More the former though, every line coming out of him has a form of brash confidence

 

[John Harker]

Looked sooo good.

Kinda still wanted it to be Matthew Vaugn for the period pieces and tone, but it's not like you can go wrong with Bryan Singer and Xmen.

 

[Snake]

As much as this franchise has burned me I can't help but like where this is going.

I was surprised to see so much Mystique (not that it's weird that they would highlight their biggest star) after First Class. But as long as Jennifer Lawrence gives half an effort this time I think she'll work out.
