Mr. GOH! Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 (edited) Fair enough. I just remember the character having wings in Last Stand. Edit: I kinda agree with Straneglove, except for the homophobia; Nightcrawler should not be good-looking; his whole thing is that he looks monstrous (and not sexy-monstrous), but is really a deeply moral and religious person. If he looks like a male model with blue skin, it sort of defeats the purpose. Edited April 27, 2015 by Mr. GOH! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strangelove Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 I'm not being homophobic. He likes young boys. He gives them a role in his movies and in exchange he gets to fuck them or gets his dick sucked or whatever he's into. It's well documented.

deanb Posted April 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 I'd say in context he's fairly "monstrous". We've just become quite used to and desensitized to someone being blue n furry. Bear in mind in original stories he showed up in a fairly religious German town where they took him as a kind of demon. End of day blue n furry is what he is, it's never said if beneath it all he was still fairly ugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strangelove Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 Is Cyclops supposed to be unlikable in the movies? Did Singer set out to do this purposely? Sometimes it seems that he's supposed to be a dick, but youre still supposed to respect him....yet he gets his ass kicked all the time and ends up dying. He never even really feels like the leader of the Xmen. I dont think he is. I say this because Im rewatching the first Xmen. He's so boring.

deanb Posted May 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 He's unlikable in the comics too, he ends up splitting off and forming his own group. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRevanchist Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 He's a dick. You are thinking of Cyclops from the X-Men cartoon, which is Cyclops from before he merged with Apocalypse. After returning from that merge, he's a dick through and through. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hot Heart Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 No, no, no! Cyclops isn't supposed to be boring or a dick (at least not back then). It's just one of the things the Singer films fucked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted July 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 So seems they're going really comic-bookey with the character styling. Which I'm perfectly fine with. Quicksilver worked out despite the initial scepticism. http://www.comicbookresources.com/article/first-official-look-at-apocalypse-psylocke-and-magneto-in-x-men-apocalypse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strangelove Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 I like how the Psylocke costume turned out, but leotards just seem so outdated. My favorite Street Fighter character is Cammy, but I find her outfit outdated too. I like ass as much as anyone, but I think they should cover that up a bit. Its not the late 80s/early 90s anymore. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the film is set in '83. Take a look at Jean Grey and Jubilee in some extra photos here. Is Magneto wearing some armour from Destiny? (Okay, his actually looks kinda cool to me). Apocalypse has totally been playing Trials of Osiris. These photos don't give me much confidence because Singer sucks at capturing time periods anyway, plus it seems like another quick blockbuster grab (where DoFP was half about "we have all this returning cast, they do fuck all"). Marvel has actually done everyone else making superhero films a favour by giving everyone the impression they know what the fuck they're doing. No doubt this one will still feature some lazy gags or references to the original films or comics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strangelove Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 I forgot this took place in the 80s...alright. Whatever I guess. Also - Stormcaller is totally wearing a Magneto helmet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deanb Posted December 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2015 Yeah she's a bit redundant at the moment. But she's a big name so they'll bring her in even if 1. It's detrimental to the plot 2. They already have Fassbender, and Sansa, and soon to be star of newest Star Wars as their baddy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCP Posted December 11, 2015 Report Share Posted December 11, 2015 It's weird that Charles and Magneto both look about the same in the 80s as they did in 1963. But by 1999, they're both old as balls. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted December 11, 2015 Report Share Posted December 11, 2015 That's kind of how it works though. From like 30-50 people hardly change at all, and then suddenly start aging again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hot Heart Posted December 12, 2015 Report Share Posted December 12, 2015 (edited) Oh my god, why does the actiony/Four Horsemen bit from 1:50-1:57 look so fucking terrible?

Thursday Next Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 What the fuck is fucking memorial day? For fucks sake America, use a fucking calendar. Fucking 30th of fucking May 20 fucking 16. There. Was that so fucking difficult? I fucking hate this "Holiday 2016", "Fall 2017" shit. Just use fixed a fucking date on the Gregorian fucking calendar you cocks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted December 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 If they used a calender then none of them would be seeing Star Wars until the 12th of Hexteencember 2015. But yeah, if you're making a film with an international release, and putting the trailer up on the internet then put a usable functional date with with the day, the month (in words) and year in the trailer. Going "05-06-16" sucks (could be May or June) but at least it's more to go on than a US only holiday. I think over here only get a day on if it's a Boxing Day film and that would only be on busses and bus stops which would only be seen over here.

First, they should be on the DATE-MONTH-YEAR bandwagon. It's really annoying living next to them because it's probably 50/50 when you see a date if it's M-D-Y or D-M-Y, they confuse everything. AND THEN, using Memorial Day?? That can't be a real holiday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AND it moves between around the 25th to 30th May every year as well. At least when you say "Boxing Day" it's the 26th December every year. Not some arbitrary 2 Tuesday of the month except on even numbered years that start on a Monday bollocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean like Easter, which is the first Sunday after the first full moon on or after March 21? We Americans are so ridiculous with our complicated "last Monday of May".
