[LEX]

Why is Andrew so sad today?

[ShadowBoxing]

..
Grrr.

NO WAY!
Cyclops isn't hokey. It's a bad intepretation and representation of the Character in my opinion.No no trust me he is hokey at times

ahem

Cyclops: "Under the rules Gambit..."
Gambit: "I know Cyclops. Je suit mort-- I am now dead. As I always suspected... Redheads, they have a dynamite kiss."
Cyclops: "At your own risk my friend."
Jean: "I must confess, infuriating and arrogant as Gambit can be...Those eyes, that grin, the body--it takes a girl´s breath away."
Cyclops: "Oh, really? When the next opportunity presents itself...remind me to drop a truck on him."
Xavier: (Telepathically) {{Cyclops.}}
Cyclops: "A big truck."
Xavier: {{Cyclops!}}
Cyclops: "A REALLY big truck."
Xavier: "CYCLOPS!"
Beast: "Not to worry, Professor. While you were away, ol´ fearless here mastered the art...of deadpan humor."

No, and I understand that.

It's just the biggest annoyance to Canadians that we're saturated with American culture on TV, music, and news and yet some Americans don't know anything about the country they live an hour's drive away from.

Alas...


So, yeah, anyways, how bout Cyclops? I'd try to say something here to change the subject but a lot of it's been discussed to death :p

Too many don't even know anything about the country they live in (it makes me mad because I was pretty good at geography in school)...much less other countries.

[supermarvelman]

As far as more "X-Men" films she said she hopes it happens. "Our original goal was to have like 'Star Wars', 'X-Men' 7, 8, 9 and 10

And people really think this is the last one. Ha, of the first trilogy.

Off topic but so what.

[JokerNick]

I'll refrain from making an insulting remark about Americans at this point.

Calgary is the biggest city in Alberta (the province just north of Montana), Canada. It's where the NHL's Flames play, has the Calgary Stampede every year, and hosted the Olympics in 1988.

okay, I'm from Brookfield........ I don't expect you to know where that is, I know it's probably 1/100th of the size, I don't know much about canada, and at this point in my life I have no desire to learn anything about it, law school full time and a full time job take up most of my time (don't have socialized medicine, so I have to work to get health insurance).......

[mustanger405]

Guys I heard the new Premiere magazine confirms a number of quite significant deaths in the film. Does anyone have this magazine and post what it says about mutants dying in the movie. I am starting to think Cyke has no chance.

[LEX]

Well, it did say "kills him here.." beside Cyclops. :down

I didn't hear about that! Besides, do you think Premiere really know what happens in the movie? - hardly! They couldn't even manage to put an X3 promo of Mystique on their cover!!:rolleyes:

it doesn't confirm them, it just state's what the internet rumors are.......

Sometimes, magazines are inaccurate. So, I would just ignore what they say and enjoy the lovely pics. ;)

Isn't that what magazines are for? :D We leave the news-gathering to reputable media outlets, like random web sites and blogs ;)

[LEX]

Yes, of course, you're right. :p

[taintedFB]

That premiere page has the top cut off so we really don't know what its saying about Cyke. They haven't seen the movie so I know they are not giving away who dies. But are there any high res scans of that spread because it also contains great pics of all the X-Men!

[TromaFreak64]

it doesn't confirm them, it just state's what the internet rumors are.......

Right it doesn't confirm anything. It basically just says these are the rumors. However the fact that these rumors are being picked up by major magazines does leave some indication that they will not come to pass.

Typically rumors and spoiler information such as characters being killed in a major franchise that is known to the general public (the general public and media are also aware of the negative response) through spoilers and rumors do not turn out to be true. Marketing departments are aware and can even record these responses and then have it factored to determine how it will affect sales. These rumors rarely turn out to be true especially when film makers and actors have signed contracts stating they won't give any information or spoilers away, why would the studio then continue and promote such rumors?


The marketing concepts are pretty firmly in place. First, the general public (not just die hard fans) are aware of these rumors thanks to Premiere, MSN and other news agencies already picking up on them. Second, leading people on based on rumors is an effective away to promote cheap word of mouth advertising. Fox will want to encourage as many people as possible to be concerned or worried that a major character(s) may die to keep up the efficient advertising method. Third, they will want audiences to still be suprised and satisified with the overall product in order to warrant repeat viewings and purchases.

Currently movies do make money at the box office however the theater movie going expierence is being quickly dwarved by the DVD and Rental market. For example X2 made close to $406,449,694 worldwide. Now the DVD market actually is even more profitable as the cost associated with producing a DVD is low, even rental cost are low. The worldwide total for DVD and rentals combined is closer to $652,544,332 worldwide a year following its release (comic book resources and box office mojo do not seem to have data beyond one year after its release but it would be assume to still generate revenue to this day). On a side note even Daredevil produced over 55 million in DVD rentals and sales in its first five days. This number as well does not provide a proper outlook at how satifisfaction is increases sales. This fails to take into account merchandising which split between Marvel and Fox still made close to a billion dollars in merchandising. Which is currently Marvel's main source of revenue according to their most recent finacial statements.

I guess what it comes down to, these individuals are out to make money. As much as general audiences contribute to this money, they do not contribute the most at least according to the finacial statements. If Fox and Marvel's number one goal is to increase revenue and profit for their shareholders, why would they make a decision such as to kill off Cyclops despite the negative news. Studios and shareholders (who have as much if not more say than the executives as they are the ones who elect those executives and could effectively remove them if they ruin this franchise) why would they make a decision like killing off Cyclops when they know the impact something like that may have on the numbers. Especially after hearing reactions to the "leaked" script. Another common tactic used by businesses to get early consumer data.

I've heard arguments of studio politics, etc. which are actually funny when you think about it. I mean if it were true I know I'd use my votes against the current board for replacement and so would the other stockholders since its their money that is invested there. When leaders make decisions based on emotion instead of the bottom dollar that is when they are removed by the shareholders ie Eisner. There are many more examples, but I guess it all comes down to the numbers why ruin something that makes over a billion dollars in revenue (especially when your company does not have as many strong franchises as you major competitors). It could effectively destroy your market share.

All that said, a decision to kill Cyclops could still be made. Without having seen the numbers myself to know exactly how individuals reacted, and simply making assumptions that they were negative from what I have seen, I am being blind (stuck in my own paradigm) to the fact that many people may have responded positively to such a bold move. Realistically I don't believe this is the case as people naturally fear change. As a result, unless I see some solid proof elsewhere I do believe Cyclops dying recieved the most negative reaction (my assumptions based on the posts on message boards, the fact that MSN and other news outlets have reported poorly on the ieda). Until I hear different I have faith that Cyclops will survive based on the assumption that I continue to believe the dollar rules all.

[StevieNicks1988]

Well, it did say "kills him here.." beside Cyclops. :down

Yes, it did say "....kills him here...", but it was refurring to character traits and personalities and why they what needs to be cured of the character, ext. Not their outcome in the movie.

[cyke93]

So, yeah, anyways, how bout Cyclops? I'd try to say something here to change the subject but a lot of it's been discussed to death :p

we discussed cyclops' death .. to death.. how interesting hehe.. n about his death, verdict is still out.. im just waiting to see a pic of cyclops in action (clearly taken place after the lake) and then ill become a believer

[cyke93]

Sure.....but only because I know it's really Mystique as Jean there with Logan....If it was the real Jean it would have been my worst scene from X2..........

we've seen more action between jean and logan than her and scott.... if they do kill off cyclops.. they should at least should have a scene, whether it be a flashback or not, to jean n scott doing the nasty ..lol ! but poor cyke needs play in this movie. i hope they give him that lol

[cyke93]

Yes, he will. ;) He'll blast the Sentinels out of the sky.

I thought Cyclops had plenty of moments of glory in X2; Cyclops fighting the guards and fighting Deathstrike, Cyclops blasting at Magneto and Mystique, but missed, Cyclops versus Jean Grey.

i did like his scene of fighting deathstrike. it was actually james idea to include a fight scene. i saw that in the trailers and thought x2 was going to blow my mind.. so it was a disappointed to say the least to give cyclops a little spark in that short scene and then completely extinguish him for the rest of the film.

[cyke93]

Anyone remember this picture, with Jean in it?

http://www.bibliopolis.org/graficos/pantalla/xmen2_6.jpg

Fox could be tricking us. The trailers so far show that Cyclops could die at the Lake, and maybe Fox wants us to think that, espically until now the only promotional image is Scott in causal clothes.

He could be in the final battle, maybe the only person who could stop Jean.

that was pretty sneaky of fox .. i say that whether you have a big movie such as x-men or coming out, they should not show anything (in photos, trailers, tv spots etc) in the last 30 minutes of the iflm.

The Proof

OK I GOT VERY BAD NEWS......AND IT IS THE DREADED CONFIRMATION THAT CYCLOPS DOES INDEED DIE IN THIS MOVIE :(
THIS REALLY IS GOING TO BE THE WORST MOVIE NOW AND I HAVE CONCRETE PROOF HE GETS DEMOLECULARIZED. NOW DONT GET ME WRONG I WAS HOPING FOR HIS SURVIVAL Just as much as everyone here was and I have been posting on this board for quite some time now...........Cyke!! (get it Cyke lol)

OK LETS GET SERIOUS NOW....just wanted to start out this amazing cyclops post with a lil joke to mess with your minds :) This may actually be the best piece of news for all of us devoted fans that I have picked up on :eek: THERE IS GREAT HOPE that Cyke lives!

My lil scoop is I was browsing through the new Premiere magazine at Barnes N Noble TODAY after lunch and stumbled on a sentence that I had to do a double take to make sure it was accurate

HERE IS THE Exact QUOTE FROM PREMIERE: In some ways, Marsden says, the third installement felt awfully familiar. Take those leather X-getups. "It was a Pavlovian response once I got into the suit: Ah yes, this discomfort, says the actor, who followed Singer to Superman Returns for a supporting role as Louis Lane's new man."

This confirms that James must of spent a good amount of time in the suit on the Xmen 3 set. What does this mean!!!??? Will CYKE TAKE PART IN THE FINAL BATTLE?? In my opinion its the most concrete evidence weve had so far on this Thread that Scott does indeed live. WORTHY...AND VANILLACYKE.....STORM....I NEED TO HEAR ALL YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS

Cyke must live!!

This is just more evidence supporting what I already know is true. Cyclops will survive beyond Alkali Lake and don the X-Suit! I also believe that he will arrive to the final battle late.

Does anyone think Storm, Wolvie, Colossus, Iceman and Kitty have a chance against that army, let alone, Phoenix herself. Get REAL! Reinforcements will arrive.

Brett Ratner did in a few months what Brian Singer wasn't able to do in several years, and to top it off, he even rectified some of Singer's short-sighted blunders (I'm talking specifically about Storm's role here). Come on... This guy is a god!

Like I explained back then, I got a(n early) draft of the script that was apparently either what Singer started out with, or something that was midway between that and the finished product we'll get on May 26. However, the script I was briefly trusted with was labeled as a "shooting script" and dated late 2005, so I don't know how many drafts exactly this movie went through.

The reliability of the source who handed me the script was such that I was briefly convinced we'd end up with that version on screen. It had Gambit, Scarlet Witch and Avalanche in it, and a slightly retooled ending. I did say that the people who kept attacking me should get ready to eat crow, but now that the draft I briefly had has been revised (and for the better, me thinks) I'm the one who has to do so.

The information I had WAS legit and I didn't make ANY PART OF IT up, but the script went through some changes. Not being Scarlet Witch, I can't alter that.

And you don't find strange the similarity with what ricky h was saying? some days before you post your spoilers?.............................


....back to cyke ;)

[DarknessOfDeath]

So Cykes lives :) ... right? ;)

[Maze]

So Cykes lives :) ... right? ;)
It seem so :)

but we'll know may 26Th .(or rather some days before)

i just hope that him living is the right choice ( i hope to god that we will not see a last minute return of cyke a la X2)

[spider_man_2]

And you don't find strange the similarity with what ricky h was saying some days before you post your spoilers?

I only took it as further confirmation that we would indeed be getting that draft as the finished movie.

you wan't to continue to try to save your face , feel free to do so , but there are other places than the cyKe thread.

What?

We know Cyke will be in his uniform. ;)

Which could most likely happen during the final battle.

That's not a sure thing but the signs seem there!


From mustanger:
OK I GOT VERY BAD NEWS......AND IT IS THE DREADED CONFIRMATION THAT CYCLOPS DOES INDEED DIE IN THIS MOVIE
THIS REALLY IS GOING TO BE THE WORST MOVIE NOW AND I HAVE CONCRETE PROOF HE GETS DEMOLECULARIZED. NOW DONT GET ME WRONG I WAS HOPING FOR HIS SURVIVAL Just as much as everyone here was and I have been posting on this board for quite some time now...........Cyke!! (get it Cyke lol)

OK LETS GET SERIOUS NOW....just wanted to start out this amazing cyclops post with a lil joke to mess with your minds This may actually be the best piece of news for all of us devoted fans that I have picked up on THERE IS GREAT HOPE that Cyke lives!

My lil scoop is I was browsing through the new Premiere magazine at Barnes N Noble TODAY after lunch and stumbled on a sentence that I had to do a double take to make sure it was accurate

HERE IS THE Exact QUOTE FROM PREMIERE: In some ways, Marsden says, the third installement felt awfully familiar. Take those leather X-getups. "It was a Pavlovian response once I got into the suit: Ah yes, this discomfort, says the actor, who followed Singer to Superman Returns for a supporting role as Louis Lane's new man."

This confirms that James must of spent a good amount of time in the suit on the Xmen 3 set. What does this mean!!!??? Will CYKE TAKE PART IN THE FINAL BATTLE?? In my opinion its the most concrete evidence weve had so far on this Thread that Scott does indeed live. WORTHY...AND VANILLACYKE.....STORM....I NEED TO HEAR ALL YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS

Cyke must live!!

Everyone go to the Sentinel thread. There is an interesting article...:(

[LastSunrise1981]

Has the length of the movie been confirmed yet? I know this is a Cyclops board.

I know Ratner said he wants to keep it under two hours and I sincerely hope it goes above two hours, but has anything been confirmed at this point? :confused:

[Bishop2]

So Cyclops wears the suit in the movie, it would seem.

Doesn't mean he lives, of course. Could just mean that he wears the suit during the danger room sequence, THEN mopes around the mansion, THEN leaves for Alkalai Lake.

But maybe not.

[WorthyStevens]

But he's not with the team during the DR training sequence...

[The Batman]

Maybe it could be a psychic hallucination xavier puts in jeans head to calm her down...

[cyke93]

Look, as I recently converted Ratner-holic, I have to say this:

Do you HONESTLY think the man who will, on May 26, deliver goddess!Storm, a big screen Juggernaut, the Dark Phoenix Saga, iced-up and ice-sliding Iceman, Colossus' role going beyond a cameo, Beast hanging upside down from the ceiling, a realistic-looking Angel, Psylocke, the Danger Room, Sentinels, the X-Men all lined up... whack Cyclops permanently in the first act of X3?!

Brett Ratner did in a few months what Brian Singer wasn't able to do in several years, and to top it off, he even rectified some of Singer's short-sighted blunders (I'm talking specifically about Storm's role here). Come on... This guy is a god!

imagine if gets whacked like what we've been saying all along .. this guy will burn in hell haha ... with everything going on.. im going to go back to what i was saying before that cyclops will show up as a figmeent of jean's imagination or in a flashback.

[WorthyStevens]

But if Xavier's dead... how could he do it? (This is based on my thinking he does die)

i cant believe at this point, we're just hoping for cyclops to pop up at the end, much like in x2. for all we know fox knew people would be upset with pushing cyclops off to the side again, so they create this whole "death" thing, so people will get all mad about it and then be happy when he just shows up at the end (a la x2) .. .. instead of reacting like "omg why'd he disappear AGAIN" .. we'll say "im so glad he got in there for the last 5 minutes !" .. daym fox, they turned us all into their b*******

[vanillacyke]

Maybe it could be a psychic hallucination xavier puts in jeans head to calm her down...

that's my worst fear right now.

He can't do it if he's dead... which is looking most likely. And even if she would resurrect him, she would already have turned good...

(except his grave marker :p)

hey ! . .they wouldn't be that nice lol

[vanillacyke]

One thing that keeps jumping to the front of my mind is Ratner named Cyclops as one of the characters that grows in this film. That makes me think were getting alot more cyke than there telling us.

[berzerko89]

actually they are making us think that cyclops is in it for the death row... well they cant fool... well some of us... come to think of it, if cyclops would die they wouldnt let a single detail come out but judging from the trailer we came to conclusions and well fell for the bait, they are expecting us to think he is dead but actually he's not. get the point? :confused:

[GreatWhiteWhale]

The quote is good to hear, but it is nothing major.

I mean we've already seen pics of Marsden in Cyclops's uniform from X3.

I mean, yeah, some people thought they were from X2, but if you look hard enough, you see that they are recent images.

[vanillacyke]

I'm actually happy right now. I think Cyke is in good hands now, I can't believe it. It feels good for a change to look forward to this film that I'd been waiting for since i saw the ending to X2.

Me... I look back at the AICN script. I don't know how it wasn't purposely leaked. Honestly, how the hell does one get their hands on Acts 1 & 2, but not the third?

It's a massive conspiracy I tell ya! :p

the one they got is draft from the x3 script last year i doubt they'll use the same one... there are many changes i pressume so who knows they might kill of storm instead. no offense to the storm fans. lol. ;):p

[WorthyStevens]

Still, the way it was leaked...

I'm probably just being paranoid. :p

[vanillacyke]

I would'nt be surprised if Storm died. Just cause Halle said this is her last one.

You did'nt hear about that? She also said that she had gotten a hold of some fantastic arm and leg prosthetics "They look like real arms and legs" and that she was going to amputate her appendages so she could use the prosthetics.

I think that she just doesn't have the commitment to be in another one. She only signed on for 2 sequels.

[astonishingcyke]

well yee-fricken-ha! So now its confirmed that he wears his suit in the movie and those pics werent JUST promo shots. Now the downers fall back to the "hes just an illusion" theory?! C'mon, you get an actor (portraying a main and pivitol character) for a brief period of time to film in what could be the last movie in a huge franchise, and you make him a figment of someones imagination?! I think not! Not nessisary... and just bad filmmaking. The honchos at fox are much better than that... and so is the X-men, especially Cyclops! Illusion!? HA!

[DarknessOfDeath]

hey cykies... man im tired. -yawns- whats happening all? Im just about 30 posts away from 3000 ;)

[ShadowBoxing]

If it were an Xavier induced illusion there would be no need for him to wear an X-uniform, she loved Scott Summers, not Scott Summers as Cyclops

[WorthyStevens]

If it were an Xavier induced illusion there would be no need for him to wear an X-uniform, she loved Scott Summers, not Scott Summers as Cyclops

Exactly. He would probably wear the same gear he wears at Alkali, as that's the last time she would've seen him.

[TromaFreak64]

That is a very good point. One no one has brought up yet.

believe me, i would love nothing more than to have 2 hours of worth of cyclops in x3 but im just adding that dose of realty to not let us get our hopes up .. like someone sed earlier.. it could just be him in the suit during the beg. of the film, we simply don't know. all we have is him in the promo shoot

[DarknessOfDeath]

If it were an Xavier induced illusion there would be no need for him to wear an X-uniform, she loved Scott Summers, not Scott Summers as Cyclops

Damn straight. Jean loved Scott who he was not as Visor boy that makes him Cyclops. lol I do hope that Scott gets more character development than what we saw of in the previous two films.

I think that she just doesn't have the commitment to be in another one. She only signed on for 2 sequels.

She actually only signed on for one sequel. All of the cast of the first movie did (including Sabretooth and Toad, though they were never used). They all had to be re-upped for this movie, which is a big part of why it got so pricey so fast.

[WorthyStevens]

Is that confirmed? From who?

He's not with them when the group leaves the DR... and I doubt he'd leave them in the middle of practice...

[vanillacyke]

Hey is anyone else having trouble with signing up for the X3 videogame newsletter on the new X-Men videogame site? The sites pretty sweet though.

[WorthyStevens]

How do we know who leaves the Danger Room?

The shot of Storm, Logan, Colossus, Rogue, Kitty and Iceman entering the hallway. They're all in their uniforms, aside from Logan, who's wearing his usual gear, the same as from the the DR scenario.

[the_scream]

The most recent news is encouraging and I really hope Cyclops gets his due. The only thing I am worrying about is that every bit of Cyclops info has to be investigated or inferred. I'd love to see one photo of Cyclops, in uniform, on set fighting or a direct statement saying he will be "in battle and suited up". The fact that we haven't had these confirmations means one of two things:

1. He dies.

2. They are doing a really good job of covering up his role.

I'm a pessimistic person, so I think 1. is much more likely but I hope to be proven wrong! :cyclops:

[lordofthenerds]

Yeah, they're the only ones taht go into the Danger Room alright. They could also be going into the Danger Room though.

[Paste Pot Pete]

How do we know who leaves the Danger Room?

Well, we've seen both the trailers and the scene clip of the DR, and Logan, Storm, Piotr, Rogue, Bobby & Kitty are the only ones in it.

Plus, the first shot of the team in the teaser is assumed to be heading towards or exiting the Danger Room; as it features exactly the same characters in their exact same attire (Logan in civies, rest in X-suits), as well as the group shot with Ratner.

No Cyclops anywhere.

[WorthyStevens]

Yeah, they're the only ones taht go into the Danger Room alright. They could also be going into the Danger Room though.

But Logan's not wearing the uniform. Which means he probably enters the DR by mistake, or at least not knowing he's entered the DR.

[berzerko89]

he probably just came in, just in time storm and the others are about to go to the danger room and asks him to come along. ;)

Dude look at it this way. They said during the X2 Production that Jean lives. She even lived in the freaking book / novel. I say dont get worked up just yet

[Paste Pot Pete]

Doesn't hurt! :up:

It seems Marsden just didn't get the secrecy memo. Like, "Why the heck would the suit be an off-limit topic?" It's a good sign that he's comfortable enough to just throw it out there, like it was just another day's work.

[lordofthenerds]

What premiere qoute are you guys talking about?

[Lightning Strykez!]

While James Marsden's Premiere quote insinuates Scott's survival (which is very encouraging news--let us pray now :cool: ), I'd like to point out that he could have been merely referring to donning the leather costume for the promotional photo shoot. Certainly even wearing the tight-fitting garb for a brief session would be deja vu for the actor.

However, I'd rather believe he'll actually wear the uniform in the film. We'll see.

[WorthyStevens]

Maybe he didn't feel like wearing uniform. :confused:

Well, in the clip we got of the DR room, Logan says something like "I come back, and the whole world goes to hell.'

Plus, he's smoking a cigar and looks confused in some shots. So I'm convinced he enters the DR by accident. ;)

[Paste Pot Pete]

What premiere qoute are you guys talking about?

In some ways, Marsden says, the third installement felt awfully familiar. Take those leather X-getups. "It was a Pavlovian response once I got into the suit: Ah yes, this discomfort, says the actor, who followed Singer to Superman Returns for a supporting role as Louis Lane's new man."

Lightning, remember that every character who was worn their X-uniform in promos has worn it in the same X-movie the promos for. Even if it's for a limited time. ;)

[lordofthenerds]

Just read the qoute and wow. This must confirm that he goes to the final battle. :up: :up:

That would also give an excuse for Storm to explain exactly what the Danger Room is, ala Xavier w/ Cerebro.

[GothicPowerMix1]

Or maybe when Logen gets back to the Mansion the Professor (Mind Talks to him again) & tells Logan where to go ?

Possibly. Either way, Logan's not gonna know where he's going. :p

That's my point. His quote in of itself doesn't really prove he wears it in the film. It just shows he had to put it on at some point for this production. Post-production would include photo sessions requiring him to wear the uniform. All he mentions is that he experienced discomfort when wearing the leather get-ups...but he doesn't reveal anything beyond that.

As fans we have to keep things in perspective, lest we find ourselves dissapointed. And that's why it's important to stick to the facts: All we know for sure is that he wears it in the promotional materials. Will he wear it in the film? Possibly. Probably. But the fact remains that what we are hoping this quote means is basically conjecture at this point.

True, I get what your saying, but all we're saying is that seeing Cyclops in uniform gives a fresh hope. ;)

He didn't have to be used in promos at all (at least for the Empire pic), and in the Premiere article, they could have used him in his street gear.

Sorry dude but it does'nt make any sense for him to wear it for promo stuff if he does'nt wear it in the film. They'd NEVER do that I guarantee it!

[Paste Pot Pete]

This thread suffers from wild mood swings.

[GothicPowerMix1]

I am really hoping that Cyclops just so that I can laugh at those who believed everything they read / saw or at the very most at least hint at him returning would be good enough for me. Who knows maybe the last Scene of X3 could by Cyclops showing up out of no where :up:

[lordofthenerds]

This thread suffers from wild mood swings.
Thats because its the Cyclops thread. In other words, the huge debate over life and death.

[ShadowBoxing]

Sorry dude but it does'nt make any sense for him to wear it for promo stuff if he does'nt wear it in the film. They'd NEVER do that I guarantee it!No sense wasting money on a costume

Unite, Cyclops Pro-Lifers! :up:

Unless you use one from another movie...

[FieryBalrog]

Thats one of the funniest things I've read here.

[WorthyStevens]

It's not though. Retro even contacted the people at Empire, and they confirmed the promos they used were from X3, Scott included.

[lordofthenerds]

I know that the photos aren't, and they are really promos from X3 but that doesn't mean that they didn't reuse the suit.

[ShadowBoxing]

Unless you use one from another movie...One its not and two costume are never free, doesn't matter what you're using it from.

[WorthyStevens]

I know that the photos aren't, and they are really promos from X3 but that doesn't mean that they didn't reuse the suit.

Like I said before though, he could've easily been used in his Alkali Lake street gear instead of the uniform...

[vanillacyke]

All I know is Cyke is in a costume for magazines, he's talking about wearing it again, and Ratner said Cyclops grows as character for this film. These are all good things and anybody that thinks there gonna depress me again with all there doubts is sorely misktaken. Cyclops is gonna be kicking some serious ass in X3!

[Bishop2]

HERE IS THE Exact QUOTE FROM PREMIERE: In some ways, Marsden says, the third installement felt awfully familiar. Take those leather X-getups. "It was a Pavlovian response once I got into the suit: Ah yes, this discomfort, says the actor, who followed Singer to Superman Returns for a supporting role as Louis Lane's new man."

Louis Lane? I think he just revealed a major spoiler for Superman Returns as well. :eek:

[lordofthenerds]

Like I said before though, he could've easily been used in his Alkali Lake street gear instead of the uniform...
They could have, but the suit does look better and they want to attract people to buy the magazine.

[WorthyStevens]

Damnit Singer, you've strayed too far from the comics!

:p

[vanillacyke]

Louis Lane? I think he just revealed a major spoiler for Superman Returns as well. :eek:

This information has been revealed since before they started filming dude.

[WorthyStevens]

I don't see how one character that's not in their uniform could turn people off from buying the magazine...

[Lightning Strykez!]

Sorry dude but it does'nt make any sense for him to wear it for promo stuff if he does'nt wear it in the film. They'd NEVER do that I guarantee it!

I'm not sure if you're well-acquainted with the nature of marketing, but I can assure you it makes total business sense.

Remember, this film is called X-Men. Cyclops is an X-Man. Therefore, for the sake of solidarity alongside other characters, he would be shown in the traditional costuming the franchise is known for among mainstream audiences. Consumers feed on relatable imagery. So to have Beast and Angel wearing X-suits on the cover of a magazine, and him wearing the casual garb we've seen him in so far would look silly on an aesthetic level--not to mention giving away a spoiler.

Cyclops is a face of this franchise--and in both X1 and X2's promotional images he has only been shown in the X-Suit. They wouldn't change his promo image now. So FOX (and by extension Premiere) would show Cyclops clothed in the X-Suit for the same reasons they don't have Angel naked on the cover: to project a united, familiar image to mainstream audiences.

[Bishop2]

Damnit Singer, you've strayed too far from the comics!

:p

I can just imagine Superman coming back to Earth and being all "Damn, a LOT has changed in six years... " ;)

[lordofthenerds]

I don't see how one character that's not in their uniform could turn people off from buying the magazine...
Well, they decided to use a Mystique pic from X1 because they knew that she was a popular character. It makes sense for them to want ccyke to look his best and in a famous uniform.

[Bishop2]

This information has been revealed since before they started filming dude.

Then where are the promo pics of Kate Bosworth post-sex-change, dressed up as a dude? :p

But remember Lightning, (to my knowledge) Nightcrawler was never shown in uniform for the X2 promos.

If Cyclops is in uniform in the promos, there's a VERY GOOD CHANCE we'll see him in uniform in X3. Just like Angel.

Sorry pal you still have'nt sold me. Besides I seem to recall a character called Nightcrawler from X2 and in all his promo shots he NEVER wore an X-Suit.

[vanillacyke]

WHAT? :confused: that does'nt make any sense.

[vanillacyke]

Yeah Worthy, we know what were talking about :up:

[Lightning Strykez!]

Good point. I just lost some hope. :(

LOL ;) Don't lose hope man. The quote does give a glimmer of hope--all I'm saying is that we have to keep it in perspective and "think outside the box".




No sense wasting money on a costume

Those costumes only cost a few thousand dollars each from what I recall (for example the F4 costumes ran about $5,000 each--and each actor was given a few for the duration of the filming! :eek: ). That is only a small morsel of a whopping $250 million budget, spent by a studio who wants to recoup all of it back plus more. Do you really believe they'd be so stingy as to not spend a few thousand for a costumed photo shoot if it meant the end result would rake in $$$ millions at the box office? :cool:

Marketing is one of the largest cost items on a film's overall budget. So $5,000 for a leather uniform is not going to break their wallet.

[Lightning Strykez!]

Sorry pal you still have'nt sold me. Besides I seem to recall a character called Nightcrawler from X2 and in all his promo shots he NEVER wore an X-Suit.

Nightcrawler was never an X-Man either. He appeared in 1 of 3 films.

In contrast, Professor X has only been shown in tailored business suits (and in a wheelchair) for all promo from 1999 till now. That's what the mainstream expects him to look like; that's what they identify with. FOX's marketing is not going to switch it up now. For example, it'd be out-of-character to suddenly show Charles wearing jeans or an X-Suit--even if he wore such in the actual film.

It is highly possible that Scott will don the uniform in X3--and I hope these speculations aren't dissapointed. But my point is marketing decisions are not always governed by events in the footage.

[mustanger405]

Dont lose any hope at all people!!! That quote practically says that this third installement felt awfully simmiliar to James Marsden since he had to wear the X Suit. Now Im not trying to be a problem but Lightning really does remind me of someone in the movie business. Its SIMON....I SWEAR IT IS

HE IS GETTING NERVOUS DUE TO OUR EXCITMENT. Now I dont know if this is a good or bad thing. Kinsberg u have been discovered :)

U GUYS THINK WHAT U WANT BUT I am going to investigate all of Lightnings posts....It seems very fishy to me. Someone wanna help me here. Ofcourse he will deny it but somebody help me with this please. I really have a hunch its him

Cyke lives! and if he dies the writers have failed us devoted Xmen fans miserably

[Another_Fool]

WOW! I haven't seen this many shifts of allegiance since watching the WWE!

Well I still don't believe they would put him in a suit if he's not gonna wear it sometime on film.

I doubt it. Lightnings been here for a while. Don't get to paranoid.
BTW, I haven't lost all hope I just think that his fate is up for grabs still. I'm hoping and thinking that he'll come back in the final battle.
