staySICK Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Repeat after me: "X3 never happened, everyone is in some group delusional hallucination about its existence. It's not real, it doesn't exist." You'll be much happier that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 I liked X3, but then I never cared at all about Cyclops as a character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hot Heart Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 I liked X3 in the same way I liked Spider-Man 3. Just the enjoy the goofyness and some cool action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hot Heart Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 http://www.vulture.com/2013/12/will-bryan-singer-direct-x-men-apocalypse.html Apocalypse will be a direct sequel set up in Days of Future Past's closing moments, the new film is intended to focus strictly on the younger McAvoy-Fassbender cast.

deanb Posted January 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Goddamit I hope he hasn't got a big part in it. The rest are pretty neat though (there's only a handful up so far though so keep checking back) http://imgur.com/a/lZszR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hot Heart Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Haha. That's terrible. And while First Class' Beast wasn't exactly perfect, this one just looks stupid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faiblesse Des Sens Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 So do we blame Singer for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madbassman39 Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Blink doesn't look TOO bad, although Quicksilver looks atrocious. Personally I enjoyed the look of Beast in First Class, thought it was a good departure and similar to the newer look of Beast (Secret Avenger Beast). Also, why is Professor X standing?

Oh, I liked the look, but it just could've done with a little more movement for the facial features and such. I'm sure they'd give Singer the budget for CGI...

Strangelove Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) I hated cat Beast from First Class. Probably the ONLY thing I disliked from that movie compared to the other Xmen films. Anyways, a lot of these are pretty bad, or just generic and boring. I could spend all my time nitpicking shit and at the end of the day Id say all of these suck because theres a few little details I dislike, but I wont. Most are actually passable. I hate that they changed Past Magneto's helmet and the chest piece looks a little too big, but its still a good costume. I can live with it. Same with most of these. I do like Blink though. And it looks like future Magneto finally got a real villain costume. Havok is just bad though. So is Quicksliver and the past Sentinel. Im hoping to god the future Sentinel is going to look badass, since no one has yet to see it. Im assuming the past Sentinel looks stupid because its new tech from the 1970s and the updated future version will look like what fans want.

Hot Heart Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 But 'blue wolfman' Beast is just kinda lame. Havok and Toad are just in '70s army fatigues, so there's not much to say there. Maybe they'll get proper costumes, maybe they won't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madbassman39 Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 My biggest issue with Toad is that he looks very different from the original X-men version, but I assume that is future Toad, which is Okay by my standards. I always treated First Class as a reboot without actually rebooting the franchise, and my understanding is that this movie is going to be their reset button, retconning everything from X3 and Wolverine Origins.

deanb Posted January 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 It's worth noting these are just Empire covers, so shitty poses n photoshopping are on their heads. Costumes on Singer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madbassman39 Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 You're telling me that because of the background Toad is from the past? In a movie with some Time Travel elements? It looks like he has some Lightning scars, but thanks for the sarcastic, and somewhat asshole-y response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faiblesse Des Sens Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/nailbiter111/news/?a=93488 Did you forget that the character doesn't exist in the future? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madbassman39 Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 Thanks for the link, but I had not read the comic nor did I know that Toad doesn't exist in the future. I guess I shouldn't be commenting on this thread if I haven't read all of the X-men comics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faiblesse Des Sens Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 This has nothing to do with the comics and only to do with the movie continuity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. GOH! Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 "Days of Future Past" is a ridiculous nonsense phrase. That is all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madbassman39 Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) This has nothing to do with the comics and only to do with the movie continuity. I don't recall any of the movies explicitly saying Toad had died. He was struck by lightning and send screaming off into the ocean. Not one other part of any of the other movies said he was dead. Toad didn't return in 2 or 3, but that doesn't mean he didn't live. We've seen almost every X-men survive blows that should knock and or kill a person, Cyclops blasted Sabertooth, so suspension of disbelief tells me that there is a possibility that Toad survived. So now, tell me how it is obvious that Toad isn't in the future? Edited January 28, 2014 by madbassman39 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deanb Posted January 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 1. FDS is correct, it's past toad (as below image will illustrate) 2. Days of Future Past is a fucking awesome comic book name. Far better than plain jane "Civil War". The full stitched panorama. I guess it answers my question if they'll have Nimrod in. I've a feeling this is going to be a lot of folks to wedge into a movie, should really be a trilogy to fit all the elements of DoFP into it (heck it was a whole series back when cartoon X-men covered it) (right click - "open in new tab" for this one. It's big.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
