X-Men: Apocalypse set for May 27, 2016 0

[Meeklo]

I did really like the part of Apocalypse holding Xavier to the floor while growing…that makes me feel hopeful for the Apocalypse I'm used to!

[cousin itt]

This must be a deliberate reference... When we hear apocalypse talking early in the trailer, his voice reminded me of something, and I eventually realized what - Marlon Brando, from Apocalypse Now. (Specifically his "errand boy" speech.) Coincidence? I doubt it.

A higher res trailer:

 

[Davenport]

Looks pretty good.

 

Surprised to see that retconning of the world's religions angle. Was the Age of Apocalypse story line like that? (mainly DC so I don't know Apocalypse)

 

Pretty risky, potentially alienating large swaths of audience even before the curtain goes up. Probably not the smartest move and one of Hollywood's blind spots imho.

[Broke as a Joke]

Kind of bleh to me. Probably will wait till after theatrical release to watch this one. The big ending is seeing a bald professor...ok.

[Comicopolis]

Yeah, looks pretty to me.

[juggernaut]

Yeah, looks pretty to me.

 

I felt the same way. Nothing special. The funny part is the only scene that got me to feel anything was seeing the World Trade Centre near the end of the trailer. Weird.

[cloud cloddie]

Ehh, looks like every other X-men movie. Mildly entertaining with extreme liberties from the source material.

[Chip Cataldo]

Neat. Not Earth-shattering, but I did like Apocalypse growing in the one shot and the bald Prof at the end. Who's the blonde guy with Moira and Xavier in the office? Warren?

 

So Psylocke, Storm, Archangel and Magneto are the horsemen?

 

Still think Apocalypse himself looks goofy and not menacing. I also agree with the previous poster in that he doesn't SOUND menacing, either.

[BettrFastrStrongr]

The Apocalype growing is prob a dream sequence. A cop out. ::

This in bold has me annoyed.

 

Magneto would never bow down to Apocalypse.

 

Such a cheesy way to introduce 2 other main characters into the X-men franchise.

 

Uhhhhh I was so excited for 2016.....now IMO BvS and X-men look like aboslute DREK.

 

I can't believe Suicide Squad is going to steal the show.

[AnthonyTheAbyss]

My only complaint is his voice. He sounds to soft and almost caring. I always image his voice is like the 90s cartoon without the cheesy lines being said.

 

lol my thoughts exactly. That 90s cartoon Apocalypse voice made up for the horrible Australian Wolverine voice.

 

***Trailer looks great. Archangel looks better than the comic book version

I thought the Archangel was the best part of the trailer.

Isn't the blonde guy Havok?

[kagenish]

i found it to be a bit for a first trailer

[Mystafo]

That 90s cartoon Apocalypse voice made up for the horrible Australian Wolverine voice.

 

Actually Wolvie had the Aussie accent in the animated series that pre-dated the Fox Kids X Men animated series where Apocalypse had the big booming astute historian voice.

[Doktor]

Who's the blonde guy with Moira and Xavier in the office? Warren?.

 

No, It's Lucas Till... Alex Summers/Havok.

[october]

Apocalpse still looks/sounds awful. Pass.

[RustyStaple]

Do directors have nightmares about bridges and want revenge?
