It's too good! You can't make it better.
sorry if this was posted before but it made me laugh
Ridiculous how bad he looks.
Nightcrawler in the White House, the Mansion Assault from Stryker's men, Wolverine vs Deathstrike, Quicksilver, the X-Men team ups against Sentinels in Days of Future Past...
When Singer brings the action, he's head and shoulders above other comic-book films.
Seeing those bad-ass team-ups in DOFP made me grin like a lunatic. Colossus leaping through Blink portals and crushing a Sentinels skull is one of the coolest things I've ever seen in a film.

Ruined Cairo set.

Also... could Gambit be in this one? Singer posted a photo of him with Tatum the other day.

Yeah Singer directs great action sequences, yet people say he doesn't do action. Maybe it was the relatively pacifist Superman Returns.

What's funny is that Superman Returns' plane scene is pretty much unrivaled in terms of action choreography. It's so incredibly well-shot and constructed that he hasn't topped the sequence since.

could see maybe a mid-credits cameo like Apoc in DoFP.

I swear I read something that said Gambit would debut in Apocalypse a while back (pretty much as soon as the movie was confirmed). I have no memory of where or the details, but I thought it was a known thing. Wonder if my mind is just trippin' out.

You really want him to Gatsby the fuck out of that catch phrase, old sport?

Does Jack the Giant Slayer have good action? I never gave it a chance, what with everyone saying it's trash.

Not really. And the CG is super rough.

Pretty much. Much like in that film it would be hilarious

In the (incredibly mediocre) Deadpool game, Gambit clones are enemies and all they say is 'Mon ami'. Over and over and over again.
one of the rare cases everyone is right

that's far worse tbh. a direct translation really would not work on film. people don't realize that yeah it's cool at a convention (because 'wow that guy put so much work into his suit') but it would look even goofier than the apocalypse they went with in the film.
never did get around to playing that game, but is that really all they say? if so that's pretty funny.

Playing it again I also hear a lot of 'ma chérie'

or maybe just watch the cartoon again...that's prolly a better idea.

That's the first good thing I've heard about that game, almost makes me want to play it.
Looks goofy as hell

The game really is mediocre but the writing has its moments. I believe a lot of it doesn't land, but that's because I don't like Daniel Way's Deadpool and the game was written by him.
Cartoon is a better idea.

you laugh but zedd looks cool.

i truly don't understand how this terrible series hasn't seen a reboot yet
It's very successful. The most recent entries made great volumes of money and received critical praise.

Days of Future Past was pretty great tho.
coz its not terrible, is popular and a financial success

will gently cradle you as time slowly ticks away.
He scared the shit out of me when I was a kid.
Arguably First Class was a reboot.
God, I hope so. Gambit in Origins was shit. We need it erased from history.
Same reason the Resident Evil movies haven't.
Though to be fair X-men only has two bad movies out of seven. Which when I say that out loud it's fucking mental that there has been 7 films for this franchise. Can't believe I've been watching X-men movies since I was ten.
yeah pretty much.
ever since he melded temporarily with apocalypse in the late 90's, his character to a very interesting turn.
i mean, i really despised him during schism and the aftermath of AvX (for personal reasons), but he was very well written and an engaging character to read.
magneto wishes he could be the leader cyclops was -and he is most def a well know tactical genius in the marvel universe.
the movies have never done him justice. ever. no great action scenes, no character growth; just a whiny 'obstacle' for wolverine and his jean grey puppy love. what a waste.
on topic though. from the pics we've seen, Ivan ooze looks better than apocalypse.
also, i can't believe magneto will be a horseman. what.
i was hoping they'd take some massive cues from the AoA saga, and maybe have xavier taken prisoner for half the movie, then have magneto leading the x-men in his place; especially in their battles with the horsemen…. then for that final battle between magneto & apocalypse; let that play out the same way it did in the AoA finale. that would be amazing.
it makes money, sadly
It's a legit great series bar two movies maybe (Origins and X3) and I don't care what a couple of hipsters think, it's much better than anything Marvel produced.
so it's your opinion then, big news: opinions can differ

DOFP retconned the bad movies so it really is like it's been rebooted already.

And that is exactly what DOFP did! Origins and Kitsch-Gambit no longer exist in this universe.

There's a great issue of Uncanny X-Men where Sinister creates Gambit clone suicide bombers who charge a giant version of Colossus while saying 'mon cher' over and over again. It's topped by the exploding Sinister cows bit, but damn...
X2 is fantastic i re watched that shit constantly when it came out. Everything Wolverine is so good in that film it makes me forget that I don't really like the character. I should buy it on blu ray at some point. I have no qualms saying it's one of the best comic book movies to date.
No lies detected.

The clones in the game pretty much match that description, except there's no Colossus.
I'm one of the few who liked X3 (though it is the weakest of the series easily) and have enjoyed the whole film series. Though I haven't watched Origins and Wolverine yet. (I did get them recently with the Adamantium collection which I bought since I was also buying the Rogue cut of DofP which pretty much gives me the whole collection lol)
I also really enjoyed the Rogue cut of DotP (though I do understand why they cut some of this stuff).
I'm hyped for Apocalypse now. So long to wait.
