That looks sweet. 👆

There is a Portuguese cam version of the trailer out now. Too dark to see anything on it though.

Will wait for HD.

I still think Apoc's the big screw up in this movie. He just looks terrible. What's so difficult about adopting the Comic Book look? Random fans at comic cons have done better. Much better.

And yet Fox goes out of their way to do justice to Deadpool's costume.

Honestly, I just hate the fabulous spin that Singer is putting on these characters. Like, Archangel's hair and Nightcrawler in general. They look far worse than Quicksilver did. Now granted, QS in that movie was great; so his looks didn't deter too much from it. Apoc could certainly look better, but those pics seemed to make him look more presentable; whereas Archangel and Nightcrawler just look abysmal.

Ah what the hell I thought they were supposed to get traditional looking costumes.

My only gripe: Archangel looks f*cking goofy.

Well, that was underwhelming.

Meh.

I won't be paying to see this, just like DOFP.

Sadly the XMen is becoming an obsolete franchise IMO.

Oh that's good let's get less Cyclops again

Um, NO? lol. The X-Men is the only thing Fox can get right. DoFP made them a TON of money, iirc it made more than any other X-Men movie to date, and was generally well received by critics.

I'm saying that trailer did nothing for me.
The XMen (movie wise) always came across to me as just a bunch of people who get picked on all the time. The villains are more like bullies & the fights akin to school yard scuffles...forgotten the next time.

I think the ending of DOFP was a real missed opportunity. The first time a reboot was actually a sensical PLOT move and the only thing they really rebooted was X3.

Oh & the big reveal... A bald Xavier...oh come on!

I get Jennifer Lawrence is a big movie star but I don't care much about Mystique. There are so many other mutants they can show.

I like Fassbender's Magneto too but I don't think Magneto needs to be the bad guy in every movie.

Agree with both these statements. HARD.

It's hilarious they aren't even trying to hide the fact that they're only using Mystique due to Jennifer's popularity. She's not even blue in most of the images lol

Then Why didn't you say that instead of X-men is obsolete. It kinda made you look foolish.

Because X-3 was a travesty. The first 2 X-men movies were pretty good. Especially for their time.

Using Jennifer Lawrence for her starpower is smart. She's a good actress and is a huge draw right now. And as far as Magneto goes...did you READ Age of Apocalypse???
