Why is he the only one with a mask?

he wasn't - at first they almost all had masks as the the story evolved the school went public, government involvement, etc... so for the most part the students stopped wearing masks... Logan was still a fugitive with a limited memory and no problem killing... and had a conscience he was a mess...
then there is the whole spy thing...

My only problems with the X-men movies is that they were too campy and tried to cater to a younger audience, almost trying to get that merchandise toy money..
But after Marvel started cutting them out of the toy money, they seem to have said fuck it, and now are making movies a lot more grittier... I wonder if this next movie would take off from the last.
I don't trip over costumes and shit like actor sizes, all I want is a good script (not necessarily a replica from the comics) but a good story line that isn't too Power Ranger-ish or too boring...
I think the X-men has that Star Trek version of superheros going on and I look at it as a change of pace from the other super hero movies..

man you have no idea... if this movie under performs and Fox lets Deadpool team or Marvel get in you'll begin to understand how dark and "gritty" this IP is....
if Xmen is Star Trek its supposed to be DS9 not fucking Enterprise

Fox is bunch of fools - between FF and XMen they have the potential to kill with space based stories involving the Shiar royal guard, Skrulls, heralds of Galactus, Kang etc - a true Dark Phoenix saga

I think they didn't take superheros movies seriously, thinking all they need was a cheesy safe story line, cool special effects and cha ching the merchandise bucks would start rolling..
But after the first Avenger movie and the Spiderman flops, the bar was raised, and the memo was sent to the studios that they have to start producing quality.. I really am curious to see if they will raise the bar even further by the success they had from their last flick..

I hope they (Marvel and FOX) have worked out that rumored deal to bring the X-Men to the MCU. Loved how FOX included a helicarrier in Deadpool (perhaps one of the onee that was destroyed in Winter Soldier?).

I liked the first two X-Men films, but they have gotten progressively worse with each new film. This shit looks trash.

:smh: they are not a team of super soldiers.... but I'm not going to get into the characters with you-

look First Class makes your arguments pointless, btw the uniforms below are not spandex..
wolverine-20090430022020909-000.jpg

with less laziness and better writing - the introduction and explanation of what these uniforms are / materials would have the general audience and children going crazy -[geek] Chris Clairmont and Jim Lee stole borrowed some ideas from DC and tied it into Marvel existing science of unstable molecules[/geek]:

Deadpool showed how lazy / full of shit Singer was for not working on adapting or modifying Ultimate, Astonishing, XForce or Brown n Tan versions of Wolverine I won't start on the rest

Wolvecostumes.jpg

Yeah Marvel has given them templates for years on how to make their costumes more grounded.

while i agree a literal copy of wolverine from comic to screen wouldn't work we still manage to see adaptations like those of Spiderman, Captain America, Thor, Vision Superman, Batman, Flash, Deadpool and others stay true to costume color and style but for wolverine it would be an impossible task............ Why cause you don't like yellow?
Pure Bullshit.

cosplayers can do this , big budget studios cant do better?

I'll say this, I have a feeling it will actually be a good flick

they put big money big fight scenes very summer popcorn blockbuster...

I realize if it is the Jennifer Lawrence show it is gonna be a real problem (but it seems she will now be the one seeking out new mutants much like they want Batman to do with the justice League) and the trailer essentially is a brief version of the ENTIRE film.

but it seems like it will be OVER 2 hrs, and the director we all SHOULD not be supporting REALLY wants to prove he can do this justice.

It will do numbers...

and all the comic fans on this board hold the X-Men near and dear to their hearts.

I do not WANT this suck...these are characters I have loved for decades.But I just dont have the feeling of excitement I should for this.

I disagree... I think Deadpool casts a large shadow - if this movie has the same box office as the last movie Fox will consider it a failure. As they should - half the budget shit release date but still 20x more profitable.
Culture wise - like I said before- a lot of people saw Deadpool and its jokes about superhero / XMen movies makes this trailer seem worse... shit even RoadRage acknowledges it - back when Days of Future Past dropped he and a bunch of others wouldn't hear it - to the general movie goer that saw it - it was fun and good!


personal rant:

Any fan of action movies can see how ridiculous this shot with Lawrence looks :

fbycuz7ixpfepdg1rqhu.gif


Any fan of the comic series (pre Apocalypse, before Angel becomes Death) knows how ridiculous this scene is:

mgiclneolooxeotqcfbk.gif



Singer has Magneto X and Apocalypse in a movie but the best story they came up with is Magneto follows Apocalypse? clearly telegraphing in the trailer that Magneto is going to be first to have a change of heart and considering the choice of characters for horsemen that everyone turns against Apocalypse in a great Battle Royal finish.
:rolleyes2:

Damn...ok you made your point

If u factor in Deadpool and going away from comic book canon, this could potentially be really bad so better question IF this flick doesn't even do deadpool numbers?

will Marvel be able to sneak in and make a deal?

Its not going to do Deadpool numbers...

unless its Inception Dark Knight good
which is unlikely because it has NO positive buzz... this trailer was on the web for almost 24 hours before I posted it - and no one posted it on BGOL before I did - not much excitement or anticipation

and

it has too much competition

I think its more likely that after Deadpool2 kills they give the reigns to that team

Looks like trash..

Beast still looks like a bad joke. Mystique running the show. Cyclops is still a unsure pussy without a proper visor. Storm is not cast properly. Apocolypse...where do i start.:smh:

Oh, and where is Darwin comic coons?!??
:yes:

I think it comes down to two factors – practicality and economics.

Even thought they take storylines from the original Marvel Universe, they aesthetically take their cues from Ultimate Marvel. Making them all black is easier than trying to decide which version of what outfit to wear for each character.

Secondly, if they thought that they could make more money from making the original costumes, they would. The reality is not many people are interested in purchasing a full-on Cyclops uniform. A visor? Yeah. Spandex costume? No. So there is no economically motivation for them to put the time and effort to stay true to the source material.

When did Deadpool go into production and release versus X-Men Apocalypse?

Deadpool is an outlier. R-Rated movie with a budget less than $50MM versus a franchise that has been produced for over 15 years with budgets over $100MM per movie. Apples to Asparagus comparison.

Nothing about Deadpool was expected. NOTHING.

Also, Deadpool is a singular character versus a team of X-Men.

no - Sin City was the outlier, Kick Ass was coincidence, Deadpool proves Hollywood doesn't know shit about this audience -the results are still what they are...

Hollywood refused r rated comic book movies said they wouldn't make money, staying book centric and colorful costumes wouldn't work... etc

everything right in Deadpool all the areas it succeeds is everything WRONG in Xmen so far

The properties already have good stories, the fans are literate, if you want to do something new make sure it is well written, if not work off the source materials

Its fantasy - and myth...

don't focus the movie for core fans but deliver a story to excite the core fan base and the casual fans will bring in people that do not care about the genre - Deadpool's word of mouth was so positive - that people that never heard of him were buying tickets

Listen, I'm a fan and not disagreeing with you, but more so than ever, Hollywood is focused on the dollar. Sin City was was an outlier, while in their minds, Sin City 2 proved some point that gave them the excuse not to do R rated films (the failures of the sequel are many).

The bottomline is that if the source material is strong, it behooves Hollywood to stick to the script and stay true to the source. Comics have proven to have a viable audience beyond comic collectors and if Hollywood embraced that fact, they would have a series of can't miss properties instead of having many properties be touch-and-go.

Actually soldier is a bit too strong.
But I guess the XMEN are the soldiers of Xaviers School.
They are also students/teachers.
The children (New Mutants) are not official solider but they need protecting.
X-force are the assassins.


Solders do all the stuff you mentioned, including going to school, being ambassadors and defending against attacks..
