Is this the one with Brolin?
Eh... Who are all these people? I literally only recognize Lawrence.
[QUOTE=Viper123_SWE;49293640]Eh... Who are all these people? I literally only recognize Lawrence.[/QUOTE] You don't recognise Hoult, Fassbender or McAvoy? Also that's Sophie Turner as Jean Grey [editline]11th December 2015[/editline] Also holy fuck JLaw doesn't appear blue even once in this whole trailer. She really needs to fuck off from this franchise, I think her contract ends after this film
I don't actually :v: Only name that rings a bell is Fassbender.
[QUOTE=Viper123_SWE;49293667]I don't actually :v: Only name that rings a bell is Fassbender.[/QUOTE] Oh right well McAvoy has been Xavier and Fassbender has been Magneto for the last 2 films. Aside from them, Sophie Turner and JLaw most appear to be no names.
Oh yeah, I guess [I]that[/I] is coming out too. Are we placing any bets for who the 'Mutant Who Appears For One Cool Scene' will be this time? [editline]11th December 2015[/editline] Wait a second, this is a Singer-directed X-Men movie with no Wolverine? Does this mean he'll actually have to make a movie about... [I]the X-Men?[/I]
Oh shit, I'm going to watch this just so I can see Professor X go bald.

Magneto will hijack Apocalypse's plan and be the final boss. [I]Again[/I]
[QUOTE=Takuat;49293693]Putting it all on Psylocke to show up for 1 scene, do some ninja shit then fuck off for the rest of the film, especially when they aren't even doing her backstory.[/QUOTE] I bet it'll be just like that, and the new mutants will only get to show off their powers in the third act, with the other two acts mainly made up of Xavier moping, Magneto brooding and Jennifer Lawrence looking bored. But then it'll have one cool original sequence which will make people forget about how 80% of the movie is the exact same stuff Singer has been doing since X-Men 1.

I've always enjoyed singers x men films. This looks good and I'm excited to check it out
Is this the first X-Men trailer where they're not advertising it with Wolverine? Finally
[QUOTE=Damjen;49293704]Magneto will hijack Apocalypse's plan and be the final boss. [I]Again[/I][/QUOTE] [sp]Rumor has it that there will be a scene where all the mutants, including the horsemen, are going to fight Apocalypse at one[/sp]
That cast is just laughable.
i really liked days of future past and i've faith in singers' directing skills, looking forward it
Man, I'm really looking forward to this movie but whoever made this trailer needs to be fired.
[QUOTE=Water-Marine;49293885]Man, I'm really looking forward to this movie but whoever made this trailer needs to be fired.[/QUOTE] It's fine.
All i can think about is hungergames: x-men edition.
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;49293968]Just gonna go out on a limb and say that Jennifer Lawrence is actually a really good actress, especially for her age? I mean, she's not an A+ Mystique, but is she REALLY that bad to people? Shit, with how awesome the past few X-Men movies have been, you'd think that'd be enough.[/QUOTE] My problem isn't her acting, she's a fine actress, its how little she gives a shit about the franchise, how bored she seems and how much directors/producers want to focus on Mystique. She's been a key character for the past 3 films purely because of Hunger Games popularity and they tried to make her the Wolverine of the past films. Also she looks like absolute shit in the make-up compared to Rebecca Romijn, which I know isn't as important as acting skill especially since she's taken an actual character role, but you always hear about her complaining about it. Like Zuimzado said, I was excited to see Singer do a film about the actual X-Men till I realised this is just gonna be another Mystique film.

Don't really think it's JLaw's fault that they tried to focus more on Mystique. I mean, even in the comics, Mystique is a key character for Days of Future Past and on First Class I don't think they tried to focus on her at all.
You could list the number films facepunch actually likes on your fingers These movie threads are all the same Can't wait to see new mutants and the powers...always find that interesting and i wonder what bestowing power to his follows means? ..supercharging current powers to insane levels? or complete replacements
They made me so confused with their timeline
Why does Apocalypse look so dumb. Isn't he supposed to be a fucking monstrous badass god? Kinda like Thanos? He looks generic.

I mean, even in the comics, Mystique is a key character for Days of Future Past and on First Class I don't think they tried to focus on her at all.[/QUOTE] Mystique was the point in the middle of the love triangle between Magneto and Xavier in First Class. She had focus, she just shared it with the other two main characters. My problem with Singer is that he's doing the same thing he did since X2: shove a bunch of mutants, have some fights, focus on the exact same characters and the exact same discussions and add nothing new. DOFP was cool, but it came out in the same year as Winter Soldier, a movie that pretty much blew the roof on what superhero movies could do. The X-Men are great because they're more like a soap opera. There's decades of relationships and conflicts embedded in each comic, and the best ones use the long history of the characters as a jumping off point. Limiting them to a movie is a problem because you don't get to explore the rich history and immense cast of characters the comics provide, especially when they keep using every movie to reboot the timeline and focus on the same characters. X-Men needs to be a TV show. The characters need more time than two and a half hours to really fulfill the potential they have.

[QUOTE=jp_rsardeto;49294590]lol what kind of argument is this[/QUOTE] The argument that in a world where superhero movies have to innovate (and can), a movie that keeps doing the exact same thing a movie from 2004 did is a waste of the potential of an entire franchise.
[QUOTE=BenJammin';49294550]Why does Apocalypse look so dumb. Isn't he supposed to be a fucking monstrous badass god? Kinda like Thanos? He looks generic.[/QUOTE] Because it's a guy in a suit not CGI.
