Chazwinski Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 An "X-Men" movie with no Cyclops, Wolverine, Storm, Iceman, Rogue, Colossus, Phoenix, or Nightcrawler is a sad thing indeed. Azazel? Angel Salvatore? Did they draw names out of a hat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nessex Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 This scene was cut from the film. Erik is actually the history teacher at Xaviers and is taking the class to a renaissance fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthRaider Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 "It’s got a lot of teenage angst. The Twilight girls will like it." This is supposed to be reassuring?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
link 46 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Hmm, i'd probably only watch it to see if margel puts in one of their after credits scenes, but then again thats whats youtube is for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbie Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 It's an X-Men movie. They have all been awful, I don't see that trend changing any time soon. That said, Emma does look hot... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadpool Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 even though i hate this more than george clooney with batnipples, i will see it. As a comic adapton; they should burn in the negative zone, as a movie: could be good atleast we get to see havok,banshee,etc on the silver screen. on that note sadly, fox will be keeping the x-men rights for probably ten more years seeing as we have The Wolverine in preproduction and Deadpool still as a project Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jatta Pake Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 This scene was cut from the film. Erik is actually the history teacher at Xaviers and is taking the class to a renaissance fair. And his line was, "Doth yee all now run past mine self, and offer outstretched hand. We shall smack hands together, producing a wonderous sound that I declare as a "Medieval High Five"." Emma then thought texts the other students "OMG. Mr. Lensherr is such a tool!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurch77 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 "It’s got a lot of teenage angst. The Twilight girls will like it." I guess we can be thankful that Taylor Lautner wasn't able to be in this movie. I could see the marketing now: Team Erik vs Team Charles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkeye's Junk Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 hmmm, im also more interested now. I like the havok power effect and its cool to see banshee too. I just dont like the costumes. Also, the nerd in me doesnt like how mystique and beast would be almost 50 in the singer movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Well - beast was being played by a man in his 50's . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj87 Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I did figure there was no real way of telling just how old beast was, and if was supposed to be in his 50s, then I wouldn't be surprised. I always kind of figured mutants didn't really age the same was 'we' do... as for Mystique, again... how can you call the age of a shape-shifter?

karamazov80 Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I guess the same applies to White Queen (who seemed to be about 18 in the Wolverine movie). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winkerbean Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 there are a couple of spoilers on imdb The Hellfire Club's leader, En Sabah Nur (more famously known as the Apocalypse), was influenced by Batman Begins (2005)'s Henri Ducard and the Mandarin in the Iron Man films. Share this Hide options Facebook | Twitter | Permalink: The Man in Black (Oliver Platt) is a government agent, a reference to the S.H.I.E.L.D. agency that has appeared in recent Marvel films. His title is also a tribute to the Men in Black, who supervise/are connected with paranormal activity on earth (adapted as a comic by Lowell Cunningham, made into a film by Barry Sonnenfeld). Share this Hide options Facebook | Twitter | Permalink: In the comics Alex Summers (Havok) was the brother of Scott Summers (Cyclops). In this film, Alex is Scott's father.

karamazov80 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I don't want to see spoilers, but if I were a betting man, I would put my money down on Wolverine having a brief, pointless cameo so that they could plaster him all over the commercials once the movie is released (they would no doubt try to keep it "secret" until then as a "surprise" to fans)--essentially trying to sell this movie as "Wolverine and the X-Men part 4" or whatever, even though it would be a complete ruse. I'm a cynic that way, but assuming the worst is often the best strategy with these kinds of things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nessex Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 (edited) I'm a cynic that way, but assuming the worst is often the best strategy with these kinds of things. Prepare for the worst, hope for the mediocrity that is served to seem impressive compared to what you have prepared for. . . I know the tactic well - but i'm quietly hopeful for this film. I'm trying to beat that little ray of hope down, but it keeps on beaming. I'm a fan of the books & i really did like the first 2 x-films. Knowing that Brian Singer is over-seeing this as producer & that Matthew Vaughn is directing keeps that ray of hope alive. I really enjoyed both Kick-@$$ & Stardust. I even thought they were two of the best/funnest films released in their respective years. I'm trying to be skeptical, but hope springs eternal . . .
