Nice "New X-Men" costumes. Hope it is better than the last one, especially since it is probably the last in this series.

Good trailer.

X-Men trailers always nail the music aspect.

Sixx 09-27-2018 02:37 AM

So Mystique is always gonna be one of the good guys, because it's Jennifer Lawrence?

Lock Jaw 09-27-2018 02:53 AM

J-Law can't be evil!

It's the one thing that I absolutely hate about this franchise. She may as well be a different character.

Anyway, looks alright I guess. Not super hyped though. Was never a huge fan of the story despite what a "classic" it is.

slik 09-27-2018 03:22 AM

I think this is still the best X-Trailer overall

Yeah. I mean she had her MOMENTS of being on the right side, but so did Sabretooth for example. Mystique is still a villain.

Don't know why they are even doing the story again..... seems like there are many memorable X-Men stories to draw from.... but instead they "go back to the well". Not even a "buffer movie" between introducing Jean Grey and Dark Phoenix.... introduced in one movie, evil heel turn story the very next.

Right. She's a selfish, manipulative cunt, who once in a great while has a smidge of compassion.

Jordan 09-27-2018 09:10 AM

Looks good but I probably won't see it.

Destor 09-27-2018 10:10 AM

Always hated the new X-Men suits.

Frank Drebin 09-27-2018 11:44 PM

Meh. Not that into this one.

Rammsteinmad 09-28-2018 07:56 AM

I just don't care. Feels like since the MCU really exploded this franchise is just meaningless now. Get the X-Men in the MCU already.

Also, the suits are a bit meh. I was excited at the end of Apocalypse coz I thought we'd finally see the 90's cartoon suits we all grew up with on the big screen.

Aw well. I love the X-Men though, and I'll still go and see it.

Destor 09-28-2018 09:32 AM

this will be the last of this canon of films for sure.

slik 09-28-2018 11:34 AM

I'm not sure how I feel about the eventual MCU version of the X-Men.

Disney version of Fantastic Four I am hoping for, but the X-Men have (mostly) been well-handled by FOX. I think LOGAN ranks among the best superhero flicks ever made, imo.

Destor 09-28-2018 12:02 PM

For my money have been 4ish good fox marvel movies.

X-Men
Logan
Deadpool
Deadpool 2

The rest are meh, good enough or train wrecks.

Lock Jaw 09-28-2018 12:19 PM

I'd put X2 over X-Men, and I really liked X-Men: First Class as well.

Totally forgot about the 90s suits at the end of Apocalypse..... now I do feel ripped off.

Days of Future Past is on the bubble for me.

Lock Jaw 09-28-2018 12:50 PM

Yeah.... definitely not terrible like Apocalypse, but a bit of a letdown after First Class

Seanny One Ball 09-28-2018 03:07 PM

Sophie Turner is a terribly limited actress. Apocalypse was always going to stink but she made it unbearable.

Kalyx triaD 09-28-2018 03:28 PM

I dunno. She did what was given to her.

Fignuts 09-28-2018 03:47 PM

I enjoyed Apocalypse. I mean it had its flaws and would have benefitted greatly from being a two partner, but I don't think it deserves a lot of the shit it got.

That said, Sophie turner is not good.

Sixx 09-28-2018 03:50 PM

Yah, she sucks as JEan Grey. She only got the part because she was the most famous redhead at the time.

Frank Drebin 09-28-2018 04:18 PM

Not a fan but don't see why she sucks. Can someone give me specifics?

Seanny One Ball 09-28-2018 04:24 PM

Her delivery is wooden and she is noticeably trying harder than her peers.
She can't act.

Fignuts 09-28-2018 05:05 PM

Yeah, I mean I've definitely seen worse, but she can't deliver on a character like this. Its less noticeable in GoT because of the nature of the character and her cadence but its still there.

Destor 09-28-2018 05:06 PM

Shes fine. A bit wooden. Plays well for jean grey who is also a bit wooden. Perfect casting really.

Seanny One Ball 09-28-2018 05:30 PM

It's never perfect casting to hire somebody who looks good but can't act if they are playing the lead. You always need an actress with talent to convey the essence of the character, no matter what the character's attributes are. Nobody wants to watch something wooden. Having somebody who is completely out of their depth just makes it obvious that she was cast for her looks and commercial value above her ability.

Emilia Clarke is so tremendously bad in GOT that Sophie Turner looked fine, especially as it's a huge ensemble cast with varying degrees of ability. Also she was growing up so a lot of leeway was given.
She's a knockout but she can't act for shit. I thought Emilia Clarke was bad but Sophie Turner is truly dreadful.

Kalyx triaD 09-28-2018 09:20 PM

She aight.

Seanny One Ball 09-28-2018 09:56 PM

If she gets her red squirrel out she might just get the nut

Fignuts 09-28-2018 10:39 PM

Yeah, I'll like her if her sweater muffins pop out. Otherwise, hard no.

Destor 09-28-2018 11:02 PM

Is she full chested? I cant honestly remember ever checking her out

Kalyx triaD 09-28-2018 11:37 PM

Nice enough mounds, actually.

Fo a white girl.

Kalyx triaD 09-28-2018 11:38 PM

She aight. I'd date.

Agree with everything except for her being a knockout. I don't really find her attractive and I'm pretty positive she looks terrible without make-up.

Well, she DOES look good here.

Destor 09-29-2018 12:02 AM

That pic Kalyx posted is working for me
