1Cool Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I don't see a huge price surge but the number of New Mutant comics being sold seems to have increased over the last two days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely an original concept but I'll have to see more to see if I'll go see it since I really don't like horror flicks. Says the guy with the IT avatar... I'm not going to pass judgment based on 2 minutes, but it looks like an interesting premise. I'd rather see this than another bland X-Men movie where villain <insert name here> is a mutant who wants to destroy all humans for <insert reason here> but is thwarted in the end as the team comes together / all mutants band together. (Also throw in plot points where the team breaks up / fights with each other.) I realize that sounds like at least one, if not two other superhero franchises, but given all of the different source material and characters X-Men could draw from, it makes the final product more disappointing. jsilverjanet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antpark Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Not a fan of horror in general. Probably take a pass on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Touche. I don't mind scary/suspenseful movies or shows like IT or Legion. I'm not into true horror flicks like to Conjuring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 It's definitely going down the path of being unique, while gravitating towards the superhero genre due to the characters involved. And I have to agree, the source material matches what we are seeing. A horror story involving youngsters taking on a brutal adversary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 'New Mutants' Director Reveals Connection to X-Men Universe, Future Characters Quote While speaking with IGN, Boone was asked if other well-known mutants would pop up his film. "I can't... there's some things I can't talk about," Boone began. "I can just say it is connected to and a part of the X-Men universe, and will continue to be a part of the X-Men universe and will be a part of that as it opens up in the next movies and all that." "Every video complains online about characters that aren't in it right now," Boone added. "I will say we're going to introduce new characters in the next movie as well. Characters like Karma and Warlock, and all that will be in future movies." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatsby77 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 I'm ridiculously in for this! Impressed that Fox has framed this as a straight horror film. So refreshing when I was expecting "Junior X-Men 7." Fox made motions towards horror with the last FF film but then lost the courage to see it through, ending up with disjointed weak sauce. Now I've got to go read Demon Bear... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 THE NEW MUTANTS Gets A Couple Of Intriguing New Teasers Which Might Reference Maisie Williams' Wolfsbane Quote They're very brief (actually more like gifs), but the imagery and accompanying text has led to speculation that they might be referencing Rahne Sinclair, a.k.a. Wolfsbane, who will be played by Game of Thrones actress Maisie Williams. Rahne is a deeply religious girl who has led a very sheltered life, and this could explain the crucifixes and the "sins of our past". In addition, "some things can't be caged" seems like a more obvious reference to the beast Sinclair becomes when she unleashes her rage. The New Mutants is set to hit theatres next April.

Bosco685 Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 'The New Mutants' Promo Image Pays Homage To AC/DC's 'Highway To Hell' Quote The promo campaign for Fox's The New Mutants is in full swing, and their newest promo image might be the best yet. The photo was shared by New Mutants director Josh Boone. It shows the film's teenage ensemble making poses that perfectly resemble the album cover for AC/DC's classic album Highway to Hell. The photo shows Roberto da Costa/Sunspot (Henry Zaga) and Illyana Rasputin/Magik (Anya Taylor Joy) in the front, with Magik appearing to hold an awesome stuffed version of Lockheed. Beside them are Danielle Moonstar/Mirage (Blu Hunt), Rahne Sinclair/Wolfsbane (Maisie Williams), and Sam Guthrie/Cannonball (Charlie Heaton), all giving their best apathetic teenager faces.

Bosco685 Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 'The New Mutants': Magik Wields Her Soulsword in New Teaser Description Quote A mutant’s signature weapon made its first appearance in a new teaser for The New Mutants shown at Comic Con Experience 2017 in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The teaser was shown during a panel presentation by 20th Century Fox. Universo X-Men provided a description of the panel, which we’ve translated using Google Translate with a bit of finesse and common sense: The clip begins with the film’s five leads – Magik (Anya Taylor-Joy), Mirage (Blu Hunt), Sunspot (Henry Zaga), Wolfsbane (Maisie Williams), and Sunspot (Charlie Heaton) – in an abandoned hospital room with a chair and a lie detector. They decide to play a game to get to know each other better but are all actually reluctant to talk about their pasts. However, Magik, as seen in this teaser, is much more confident and rebellious than she appeared in the first The New Mutants trailer that was released to the public. She decides to start the game herself and reveals that her mutant power “Killed 18 men. One by one.” The teaser then cuts to a scene of Magik turning and her arm becoming covered in metal with an effect similar to that of Colossus, her mutant brother, from the original X-Men trilogy. In her hand is sword covered in blue flame. This armor is Magik’s soul armor and her sword is the Soulsword. These are mystical weapons that she gained through her torturous tutelage under the demonic Belasco, lord of the hell dimension of Limbo. These are Magik’s signature items and they are vital to the plot of the “The Demon Bear Saga,” the story on which the New Mutants movie is based. This is sounding better and better the more details come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 'The New Mutants' Are Being Watched in New Teaser Quote The latest of 21st Century Fox's The New Mutants teasers has debuted - and it hints at the unique situation the film's cast is being put in. The teaser, which technically is more of a motion poster, shows Dr. Cecilia Reyes (Alice Braga) watching a series of monitors. The one in the bottom right corner begins to move, although it's not quite clear what's happening on that screen. As the first trailer for New Mutants showed, the teenage cast will be kept in a secret facility, with Reyes being the main employee that they agree with. The caption proclaims to "keep your friends close, and your doctors closer", hinting that Reyes might not be able to be trusted as the film goes on.
