Did anyone else enjoy this? I thought it was pretty great, way better than Civil Snore and Dawn of Justice in my opinion. I liked the 80s aesthetic alot. Also liked Quicksilver's little arc and the Jean, Cyclops and Nightcrawler scenes. That Wolverine sequence is worth the price of admission alone too.
Just don't see this shit in 3D though it's a waste of money. But yeah all in all its my favorite capeshit of the year so far.
It was great. It could have been better, and a few other x-men movies were better, but it didn't deserve the retarded fucking reviews it got.
Jace Cook
i saw 3 times. its pretty gut .
Charles Russell
I felt that it balanced goofiness with seriousness really well. Few capeshit can do that these days.
This is the only capekino this year IMO
Christopher Morales
It's X2 tier. way better than any capeshit we saw this year
Aaron Stewart
I loved it. But I thought it was frustrating because I can honestly say this could have been the UNDISPUTED best X-men movie if there TINY TINY things had been corrected. It honestly felt like the script was good but needed just one more proofread to make it perfect.
David Turner
they rushed movie to release in summer most likely.
also tells why cgi is shit .
Jeremiah Foster
I think I'm the only one noticing how common the blue black and red colour scheme is becoming in film posters.
Grayson Sanchez
>That Wolverine sequence is worth the price of admission
What happens? Does he go pedo on teen Jean Grey?
Jonathan Price
SWEET DREAMS ARE MADE OF THIS
9/10 movie desu, not even meming.
Bentley Rogers
Surprisingly not far off. She nearly got LOGAN'D
Xavier Bennett
I went today to see it but my sister said the film was giving her a headache and she has epilepsy so I didnt want to push it and we left after 5 minutes.
$15 down the drain
Dominic Howard
:^( I'm sorry about that desu senpai.
I hope you can find time to see it soon. It's a crowd pleaser.
Ayden Miller
i would give her headache if you know what i mean
Nolan Torres
>I think I'm the only one noticing how common the blue black and red colour scheme is becoming in film posters. Wow you're totally right you're the only one who noticed and incredibly common and understood colour pattern
Carter James
Jlaw and that GoT chick were ugly as fuck in this. Women are getting fatter and fatter.
Lucas Reed
Yes, a post-coital headache after raping her haha.
Xavier Peterson
Prove it.
Anthony Turner
Blue and orange was the go to for years and years, I'm just noticing an abrupt shift this summer. Must be a reason for it.
Liam Bennett
Fox-Paid Anonymous Alert! Trying to spread word of mouth out of shilling Capeshit.
Jordan Lee
xmen are always the better marvel movies because they don't make them to sell garbage to kids. I hope fox never releases the xmen. Disney will fuck them up so hard.
Camden Watson
The film opens on a top down helicopter shot of a desert, with narration about mutants with extreme power thinking they should rule the world. The camera then pans horizontally to reveal a pyramid, and sweeps over it to show thousands of slaves praying and chanting to a person in a tutankamun-esque masque as he proceeds toward the pyramid. He enters the pyramid with four people, who also have ornate masks. They take the masks off and the camera cuts to a view of a man's chest. A knife runs down the chest slowly but once the cut has completed it heals itself rapidly. One of the four henchman tells the main guy that this is the one they've been looking for.
After that I have no idea because we left.
Josiah Jenkins
>I liked the 80s aesthetic alot It was set in the 80s? I didn't fucking noticed.
Jason Rogers
Way to go mouthbreather.
Asher Long
Return of the Jedi was mentioned.
Justin Price
I think so too.
Kayden Gomez
youtu.be/CU9X3tvTmIQ Anyone else couldn't help but think of this during the quicksilver saves the day scene?
Landon Morris
Just came from the theater. I hadn't seen an Xmen film since X3 but this one was good. I like how the ending really set things up for later films.
8/10
What do you guys make of the post credits scene?
Oliver Cook
It was good, but not great and quite frustrating in a lot of ways.
>oh shit we need ANOTHER excuse for Magneto to turn evil, quick give him a wife and kid and kill them 10 minutes later >let's include Jubilee and not have her even use her powers >Angel, Storm and Psylocke have literally zero character development >Nightcrawler looked fucking terrible, and not even in the so bad it's good way Quicksilver does >Apocalypse looked shit and had fucking zero character development or motivation, he literally existed for nothing more than cool CGI effects >fired the nukes into space to get rid of them when he could have just wiped the planet clean that way considering he was fucking planning to do it eventually anyway >FUCKING JLAW AND HER SHIT ACTING >felt like a retread of First Class's gathering of the X-Men and DoFP's ending
I felt like it just.. exists, on its own it doesn't accomplish anything the other X-Men movies have done better in the past, and at the end all I could think was 'well I can't wait until the sequel to see an X-Men movie where they're actually the X-Men doing missions and shit'.
Instead we keep getting FUCKING MAGNETO RUINING EVERYTHING FOR EVERYONE BUT OH SHIT HE'S GOOD AND KILLS THE BAD GUY AND SAYS OLD FRIEND TO CHARLES HE CLEARLY WON'T REPEAT ALL THIS SHIT AGAIN.
Fuck.
Jackson Butler

Christopher Martin
The Essex Corporation is a lead in to Mr Sinister who manipulates Cyclops and Jean Grey to breed so that they make Cable, the most powerful mutant in the world. So with the next X-Men movie and the next Deadpool movie we could see an integrated universe which could be fun
Carter Perry
Essex is a name commonly linked to Nathaniel Essex aka Mr Sinister, a jerkface geneticist that is obsessed with the Summers and Grey bloodlines, he believed that with careful manipulation of their ancestry they could give birth to potential THE strongest mutant on the planet.
He also dabbles in other genetic experiments, him taking Wolverine's blood might be a setup for the creation of X-23
Julian Richardson
But it fucking fits isn't it?
Carter Watson
There barely was a 80s atesthetic
Andrew Rogers
Does anyone else find this movies and days of future past cheap?
Its like both of these movies set up a huge apocalyptic scenario but only give us teasers.
It feels like they couldnt afford to go all out; kinda like the finale of a tv show.
Austin Diaz
>oh no Hydra could destroy every city on earth with these helicarriers but lol we stopped them too soon
Anthony Howard
The X-Men movies are not about action, it's about the characters.
The Sentenials were pretty high-budget imo.
Logan Hill
At least i felt the stakes of that movie.
In these movies, it feels like they are fighting in a closed off space.
In Captain America, its a populated area. In these movies, its an abandoned stadium and ruined city.
Landon Davis
>it's about the characters.
Then why does it feel like everyone is just playing a type of character rather than a fully fleshed one? There is never enough focus on many of them to be invested.
Logan Lewis
who /Cyclops/ here?
Logan Gray
>He didn't notice from the hair and clothing styles, music used, cars, and pop culture references Tell me user. Were you born after 2000?
Dominic Rogers
his suit looks very cheap
Cameron Rivera
It needed more Wolverine. I was much more interested in what he was doing alone out in the woods than any of the faggoty shit that happened after he left the movie.
Carson Perry
That laser in the poster is really tacky.
Carter Bennett
why is nightcrawler such a faggot
Gavin Murphy
not many people feel that way.
a lot of people agree that the characters are interesting and not 2D.
Aaron Barnes
Because he sucked Singer's dick at one of his famous coke and twink parties to get the part
Connor Young
The only thing fully fleshed out about Jean Grey in this movie was her massive forehead.
Matthew Kelly
yus
Carter Campbell
It's supposed to be. 80s brah.
Also I cannot believe they didn't kill Quicksilver.....
Adam Green
HEY McFLY !
Colton Collins
Dubs confirm best character
Bentley Rogers
I feel like it is just stuffed with too many characters so people get shafted. The X-Men franchise has continually suffered with this.
Hey make Hugh Jackman the star or Jennifer Lawrence. Stick everyone else in the backround with three lines despite making a big fuss of their character being in this film in all the trailers. Give them like a slither of a character.
Put some fantastic actors in it but never let them have anything at all to work with.
Thomas Miller
Can I make a period joke or is that in bad taste?
Luke Nelson
best character had the smallest role
Chase Sanchez
>I liked the 80s aesthetic alot
There was no 80's aesthetic, none. It all looked 2000 as fuck. The characters didn't dress like the 80's, the scenery was contemporary and there was barely any indication that this is happening in the past. I don't get where you faggots get this idea.
Samuel Brown
>He didn't notice from the hair and clothing styles, music used, cars, and pop culture references Yes, all 3.5 of them. >Were you born after 2000? 1987 actually.
Justin Turner
>>He didn't notice from the hair and clothing styles, music used, cars, and pop culture references Not him but this film really downplayed exploring the periods aesthetic unlike First Class/DoFP
Adam Myers
i enjoyed it thoroughly very good pacing, and entertaining characters
Hunter Barnes
To be honest Apocrolypse is the first XMen film I've seen.
John Wright
Literally the only thing that made me like this movie. They actually had development of cyclops and in the first 5 minutes hes already pushing to lead.
Samuel Mitchell
lets talk about erik's young daughter who could control animals
Jaxson Foster
MUH ANIMES
Dylan Lee
...
Noah Thomas
It was okay once it got going but HOLY SHIT did it take a long ass time to get going. They could have cut out a good 45 minutes of inane horseshit they padded the first hour with and the movie would have been way more enjoyable.
Aaron Roberts
was she supposed to be fox's scarlet witch?
Justin Hughes
Why though, that's a lame ass super power. >Oh no she can control animals! >If only we had guns to kill them or animal feed to pacify them!
Zachary Martinez
>"Everyone knows that the third movie is always the worst."
Jackson Roberts
you sound genuinely unpleasant to be around
Cameron Lopez
This is some next level autism.
Jason Sullivan
word up
Matthew Carter
lets see your version of an xman movie
oh wait they dont let basement dwellers make blockbusters
John Roberts
Bryan Singer basically said, "fuck everything Matthew Vaugh did, this is my movie."
And in doing so he destroyed the possibilities of alternate universes and instead gave us a shit load of coincidences
Daniel Ross
This is exactly what you nerds would have been saying if Warner Bros let Snyder release the 3 hour Batman v Superman cut theatrically first. That's how I know the ultimate it isn't gonna change a thing, because the film is still shit at its core and you really can't change that.
Jaxson Torres
Yes! The CGI was disgusting when cities were being vaporized
Aiden Brooks
When I saw that, i thought about all the conspiracy people
Aiden Stewart
>pedo >teen Pick one
Colton Robinson
Kek
Nolan Flores
>the Sup Forums contrarians are now saying this was good It was an unfocused mess. Too many characters. Too much jumping around. Too many contrivances. Too fucking long. I haven't been this bored watching capeshit since GOTG. The differing being GOTG were literal whos whom I had no prior connection to and didn't care at all about, while X-Men has been my favorite comic book property for almost 25 years.
Mason Rodriguez
I was an 80's kid and often forgot this was set in the 80's. It's like they were afraid to go full 80's so they downplayed everything.
Logan Bailey
She was Polaris.
Tyler Murphy
He sounds genuinely correct on all accounts, and you sound intentionally idiotic.
Kevin Bailey
The wolverine scene was a huge let down, what the fuck are you talking about?
They got his outfit wrong (obviously gotta show Hugh Jackmans face!) the way he acted was no different than he does in any other film/fight. They kills were tame and nothing special, just more of the same shit we saw in X2. Even more disappointing after the brutal ancient Egypt scenes, and a few others throughout hte film. He should have been feral, attacking like an animal, and completely out of control. There was no sense of that at all.
William Williams
I thought it was okay by the previous X-Men movie's standards. The only things that struck me as strange were how nobody seemed to have aged 15 years since First Class (was Havok 30+ by this point?) and that JLaw the fucking prima donna wouldn't put her makeup on in 90% of her screen time. Oh, and almost no Jubilee. And sniktbub was wearing boxers for no real reason, probably so he wouldn't be full nude in front of "teenage" Sansa. Sansa looked fucking stupid too with her 6head. Hair and makeup should've insisted she wear her hair down more like Famke.
Actually, you know, it wasn't a great movie. It was better than X-Men 3, and that's all. Far from capekino.
Levi Harris
>they gave him the Jim Lee costume but fucked all the colors up
Henry Long
Kinda hated the ending.
>Based Apocalypse fighting Magneto and Cyclops WHILE having a mind battle with Charles AND HE'S WINNING >"oh shit this is pretty intense, I wonder how they're going to beat him-" >Enter Jean Mary Sue Phoenix powers that somehow disable his forcefield
I dunno maybe it's explained better in the comics, but it just felt anticlimactic as hell.
Cameron Hall
Also how could he atomize those people in the smeltery in pooland, but not the mutants attacking/betraying him? Oh and as he collected his 4 "horsemen", why Angel and Psylocke? Compared to Magneto and Storm they are hilariously underpowered.
Furthermore why can Psylockes psychic blade and leash cut through stone etc, but not through the beasts neck?
Can any comic nerds answer those questions for me?
Connor Martin
Better than Deadpool desu
Ryder Rivera
Not gonna lie I got pretty hyped when I seen the blue and yellow.
Please fucking let the next movie be Cyclop/Jean/Jubilee/Quicksilver banter time.
Thomas Gray
she must have had surgery at some point
Andrew Murphy
I wasn't really planning on seeing this but I got a regal giftcard my dad won in a raffle, I liked DeadPool is this as good as DP?
Thomas James
SWEET DREAMS ARE MADE OF THIS
Josiah James
Agreed. It's the weakest of the new trilogy, but I thought it was pretty solid, still. Didn't deserve such bad reviews at all.
Jason Ward
Why didn't you ask for a refund if you really left only 5 min into it?
What third world shit hole do you live in that wouldn't refund you?
Anthony Anderson
Why the fuck did they have to make prof x go bald in the end Like who fucking cared how he lost his hair, it was just such a dumb hollywood hurr we need to explain it thing
Landon Cook
It's the same way they had to show Sheev turning into old Sheev in ROTS. They should have had him starting to lose his hair in DOFP instead of being a hippie.
Christopher Campbell
>YFW Apocalypse is better than every MCU villian except Loki >very few critics mention how fucking scary Apoc was or give the movie credit >critics have been trained to ignore villians by the MCU
