JohnnyBlaze Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Anyone else notice the Rush shirt???????? YES!The story is set in the 80s so it fits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyBlaze Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 I'll definitely see this but I was never a big fan of the Apocolypse storyline. Plus, I'm not sold on his costume. And there's no Wolverine in this. As far as X-Men flicks go...X1: ok, X2: very good,X3: garbage, XMen First Class: ok, XMen Days of Future Past: good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Since when was Mystique the main character in the X-Men franchise? She's a supporting character at best. Oh yeah Jennifer Hype Job is playing her I forgot... :eyeroll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As seen here (towards the end): It's a better trailer I think and Mystique finally does wear a costume similar to the one in the comics instead of walking around naked for no real reason (Singer, wtf were you thinking?). But yeah, nothing about the Hunger Games girl says "Mystique". Nothing at all. X-Men movies have always been a gamble. But that's what happens when you get non-Marvel people to do Marvel characters.

But my bigger issue is with the liberties they take in changing the personalities from comic to screen. The MCU generally gets it right (with Iron Man & Cap being the best examples...the hatchet job they did with Yondu in Guardians of the Galaxy is an exception). However, these non-MCU flicks like X-Men and Fantastic Four really screw up way too much and too often. Having said that, I think Fassbender was a good casting choice and has done a pretty good job. He's the best part of these recent X-flicks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saw that it got 48% from 230 reviews on RottenTomatoes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
