Looks good

But why is Mystique good in this trilogy? Isn't she supposed to be a villain. Or does that happen later on in the comics?
 
THIS is Archangel

They really just gonna give him a shitty tattoo and call it a day?

There isn't even a techno-organic virus.

That shit is REALLY important to Apocalypse.
 
People are really trying to act like Nightcrawler and Azazel didn't get awesome scenes already in previous movies? This is going to be like when Civil War comes out and people gush over Spiderman, pretending he didn't get awesome action scenes in the existing movies

As others pointed out, it's more than just the action scenes. Nightcrawler opening sequence in X-2 is one of my favorite comic book movie scenes. However, as a movie I think X-2 is kind of a hot mess.

Winter Soldier was so damn good it made me take another look at two characters that I had been sleeping on for 20+ years.

After watching the trailer again and pausing for some closer looks, I am not really liking the new look for Nightcrawler either...
 
I love JLaw in general but I can't help but cringe each time Mystique speaks. That Leader pep talk was awful. Apart from her the movie looks fine, I'm not shocked by Sophie Turner, Apoc looks as good as a bald blue giant with thick lips that go across his face can look in real life.

Taking liberties with her character + good only because Xaiver probably takes a huge L and is out for the second act of the film and the X-Men need someone who can do some sort of leading

Wouldn't Beast be better suited for that role then considering in the movie universe he helped found the school with Xavier?
 
Well, even though dofp exceeded my expectations, doesn't look too hot. Then again, dofp didn't either.

Boring trailer.

But, one thing I'll just never be able to get over is....

Xmen in name only. Singer has terrible style. I bet if he was a photographer, illustrator, or sculpter, his work would be whack as fuck.

This Beast is total fucking chump. If you were one of them would you want his pansy ass to lead a charge against Apocalypse?
 
It wouldn't change much. As far as new director, why? The last one was superb. It's not like another director would come in and make something far better. Singer doesn't exactly have a bad track record with the series so far. Could this be his first dud? I guess anything could happen, but are we talking as though his work hasn't been exceptional thus far?

The last movie was not superb. X-2 was the closest these movies ever came to being superb but it's been downhill ever since. Singer needs a time out. He's clearly phoning this shit in at this point.
 
Looks like Jean hurls the car that Psylocke slices through...and she stops Archangel's fletchettes...I hope she has more substantial action moments than that.
 
My only real concern after watching that trailer is that I hope they don't table Cyclops again and relegate him to mediocrity.

I'm not convinced that Cyclops can ever be done well in a live action movie and I'm not sure I know why. It's just one of those things? I mean he could be done well, I'm just saying we probably won't ever live to see it lol
 
Reviews and general consensus were very positive. I realize you're arguing your opinion and that's cool, but this isn't a case where you're speaking for a majority and thus it's kind of moot to carry on the debate.

Never claimed to speak for the majority. I gave my opinion and you wanted me to explain it a bit. I agree that trying to debate it would be pointless.

Sure. Yeah, I know you're not trying to speak for the majority, but that disagreement doesn't really put any cards on the table so at least we see there's not much of a direction to go in at this point. You're totally fine to dislike the movie though-- not that I'm having to give you clearance :p
 
I truly did not mind Lawrence as Mystique in First Class. Was she as good as Rebecca Romijn? No but she was not unbearable. DOFP on the other hand looked as if she does not give a fk and this looks to be the same case. Fox should have cast someone else instead of ruining this film because she clearly looks disinterested.
 
I am glad J-Law found success. I just wish she was playing an actual X-Men in these flicks. They've so obviously been tweaked around her celebrity to the point where the actual X-Men are all secondary, even tertiary, characters. She would have made a decent Jean.

On the other hand, this trailer shows them actually being X-Men for a damn change. We haven't seen that since one scene in X-Men 1 and the end of First Class. Maybe they'll be a team for more than 15 minutes this time around.

She can literally look like anyone! So it could work in-universe to recast!!!!
 
Lol singer xmen movies have been great, why do people keep doubting him?


Anyway this trailer was much better than last two.

Soo glad wolverine isn't in the one to hog the spotlight

Wait, are we really pretending that Rebecca Romijn was good?
 
Why when all Singer X-Mens have been good?

Because it's not 2000 any more and we maybe want to upgrade from "good" to "great?"

Wait, are we really pretending that Rebecca Romijn was good?

She said like, 3 words and was some kind of lizard? I guess? Terrible. J-Law makes a fine early Mystique. It's just that Mystique shouldn't be a founding goddamn member of the X-Men!

Even if you think she was not good she was not as bad as Lawrence in DOFP. Lawrence looks absolutely in pain here playing Mystique. It is clear she does not give a shit.

Lol. All the more reason she could have been recast :(
 
I don't like they turned Mystqiue into a fangirl that doesn't know what to do with herself until she is told.

Mystqiue in comics is a fucking boss, does what she want when she wants and dares anyone to fuck with her.

Only reason she should be fucking with Xavier and Magneto is they either got a gun to her head or they cutting her a fat check.
