X-Men: Apocalypse announced for May 2016
- Thread starter Dream
- Start date
James McAvoy shaves his head. Patrick Stewart provides color commentary.
Ditto here. Nnoooo it sucks though the new X has gotten bad to mixed reviews though. I try to just check out the scores on RT, meta and IMDB and not to read full reviews until i seen the film myself.
I justpicked up deadpool on bluray. Gonna watch it fri. With my girlfriend. The first few min. I have watched as been so good. Cant wait. Very different and entertaining it looks like.
Even though i dont care for movie critics, word of mouth means so much more. At my job my coworkers and i are always talking about past and upcoming movies. If one or a few coworkers say" i seen it and it sucked" and explain why spoiler free to the rest of us than word gets round quick. Then for a lot of people it goes from "i want to see that movie" to "im just gonna wait for it on blu ray" type deal.
Even though i loved X3 and i dont see why people bash it so bad (though i understand compared to the previous films) the film works so good paired with X1 and X2. On his own though its not as good but within the film franchise it works.
Another thing to point out as someone said earlier when X3 was released, less people had smart fones and looked up movies and reviews. Most people than simply went and saw it, then checked out the reviews. In this age of apocalypse, however, more and more people read early reviews and that, with word of mouth, help them decide to go see a movie or not.
The early reviews are disappointing but not devastating. I feel its gonna be just as good as the others. Maybe not as strong as X2 and First Class, but watched as a whole with the rest of the films most of us fans will regard it better than the critics. X3 is decent but its even better watching it within the context of the other films. Hopefully Age will do the same. Only a short time will tell..
That's great.
Cool spoiler regarding Stan Lee's cameo. One that's well worth knowing about going in...
For the first time, Stan's wife Joan Lee will have a cameo along side Stan in a Marvel movie.
my guess is he will shave it again. He said he wanted to on the last film. He was excited to do it.
I think he is the most likely of the First Class actors to return after this. He seems to really enjoy doing it. He was an X-men fan before this. In an interview for Days of Future Past he started humming the theme to the 90s cartoon from memory!

I am curious to see how the character of Wolverine has developed in the time from DOFP to X:A, since we know from the new trailer that he will be in X:A (with adamantium, too).
I know some fans are getting tired of him having such a prominent role in every movie, but he remains one of my favorite characters.

Ha! Try calling the 800 number that they give you at the end.
Just back too. I thought it was a fun flick.
No way J law's Mystique was just herself, RDJ plays Tony Stark.
Curiosity. And having Stan Lee answer the other end was a pleasant surprise.
Jlaw gets unwanted hate, RDJ has not been tony stark since iron man 1. rdj is a caricature of the comic character. its been almost 10 years, I thought the media love affair with rdj would have stopped by now. he made tony stark insufferable and annoying
