The X-Men Apocalypse Trailer Has Landed
December 11, 2015 by brennon
If you've been following along with the X-Men film saga then you'll be chomping at the bit to watch the new X-Men: Apocalypse trailer which, predictably, adds the mighty foe Apocalypse to their roster of 'dudes to go and beat up'. See what you think of the trailer above...
It looks like we're going to be an interesting cast of both villains and heroes with Psylocke (seen on the poster above) being joined by Magneto while a younger Storm, younger Jean Grey and more all get added to the cast. It will be neat to see if this apocalyptic piece can live up to the reasonable strength of the past two movies which took a jump back in time.
Jennifer Lawrence is also playing a very different looking Mystique as you can see and it's neat to see Cyclops now getting some proper air time considering how important he is later down the line.
What do you think of the trailer?
I’m a little underwhelmed by the trailer, and if my FB newsfeed is anything to go by then I’m in the majority. It seems pretty bogstandard by-the-numbers stuff. To be fair, it’s not the strongest source material that could be taken from the books. Well short of the likes of the Dark Phoenix Saga and Days of Future Past. All of which said, it is only a trailer, so here’s hoping.
I think Disney Marvel movies are rather unispired spectacle. I dont think anyone will remember this trash in 20 years, like the way people remember the first Ghosbuster movie today.
This isn´t a Disney Marvel Movie… this one is from Fox
Fox, consodering the lastest Fantastic Four, thats even worse : D
This isn’t Disney btw … its fox … just sayin’
What have they done to Mystique? This looks more like “Katniss meets the X-Men” then an good X-Men Movie. Mystique wouldn´t hide her true nature… I don´t like this part of the trailer…
Best part about this trailer is watching someone turn into Patrick Stewart.
Haha! 😀
i’ve loved all the X-men movies up to this point but i have to say this trailer is leaving me a bit worried for this one
I couldn’t remember which movie had the guy in the desert with a pyramid at the end, now I realise it was the last X-Men movie. 😀 I kept expecting him to pop up every time a new Marvel movie was announced lol, and then I forgot about him. There’s too many damn comic book movies! It makes it hard to care when a new one comes out.
Avengers Ultron was uninspiring and I have a feeling this may be too. I hope not, but I will curb my enthusiasm and keep my fingers crossed as I was always an X-men fan slightly ahead of the Avengers. Thank goodness X-Men: The Last Stand never actually existed. Never I say! That is all.
Aawww is the major threat again going to be some vilain trying to get Cerebro and use it ?
Otherwise i’m glad to see Apocalypse able to control his mass and form, but the horsemen don’t seem very charismatic… And putting storm as one of those in her early years sounds like an error to me, the character had many interesting suff in store in its paper version…
??? looks ok’ish.
Isn’t that Psylocke in the pic?
yes it is, glad they are including some of the other characters.
That looked really promising. It’s great to see that X-Men movies can keep that high quality that those got back with First Class. For some reason X-Men movies are those rare Marvel comic book movies that have plenty of good entries that is not made by Marvel Studios.
well it looks better than wolverine origins and last stand, but thats setting the bar pretty low…
so from this we can gather that “never felt powah like this before” leads to total hair loss.
Considering how little hair I have on my head I certainly wonder where all my power is! I just had a buffet in a local restaurant and I barely had enough power left in me to climb into my couch.
And so the avalanche of uninspiring super hero movies continue. Where did all the good movies go?
I don’t disagree. But “good” is in the eye of the beholder. As with politics, economics, etc. …. we get what we deserve. The masses are buying this shite … so … we get more of it. Also name an “inspired” super hero movie. I have watched the recent Batman films again for example, and as much as people praise them, … I personally am sort of bored by them … I don’t think a “good” super hero film has ever been made. I think the best hero films were made by Akira Kurosawa and everything since has just been… Read more »
I love Oliva Munn … but I can’t see her in this sort of film … but hey I don’t blame her for taking the gig. I’m sure the check had ALOT of zeros in it. I honestly haven’t enjoyed any of the xmen films. The marvel films, while not perfect, are really good (for screen adaptations of pulpy comic book stories that span the range of craptastic 60s/70s cheese to grimdark indie era … with a wide mix of awesome to shite … ya try making a mass market film based on that … lol). I think the Marvel… Read more »
More super hero films? Yawn.
Super heroes. The new spaghetti westerns
I have to disagree with that. Thing about superhero movies is that unlike westerns those can have several different genres. For example first Captain America is adventure movie while Captain America: Winter Soldier is spy movie. Dark Knight trilogy that so many love is series of crime movies but with superhero. Those have so much potential that those won’t become stale like westerns did.
I think you’re missing the point.
And yeah, they will become stale. Just like anything that gets done to death, people will get bored and start to switch off. I already have.
This film looks great, what the heck is all this negativity, it continues a great story, and brings in an all powerful being, Katniss – essence! I love the darkness that comes with saga’s, because the story grows older, wiser, and blacker as we do.
Looks good… For an X-Men movie
(still leagues better than Batman V Superman 😉 )
