"Guardian Archangel:" The Official Character Discussion Thread

[cyke93]

True. But Ben Foster actually looked like that without make up. Have you ever seen him on Six Feet Under. Not a pretty sight. :O I remember when he was the cute kid from Liberty Heights. Such a cutiepie. :)

Ben before The Angel Treatment:

good job make up department on fox ! .. when i first saw him, i wasn't sure if this is "angel" they did a pretty good job on the other x-men .. but i guess we'll wait till the movie comes out

[*xmenfan*]

Just wanted to update with the new Starlog quote:
Doesn't look like he will be in the final battle :( :mad: :down

Yep they did do a excellent job on ben i love that picture of ben ^ :d *DROOLS* LOL

[OnAMission]

I think once you guys see Ben in this movie, you'll definitely be blown away. He worked incredibly hard. He was actually a pretty cool guy as well.

[silver_arrow]

and this you know because...?

[JustABill]

He appears to be a member of the crew/either that or another fraud.

[Maze]

I think once you guys see Ben in this movie, you'll definitely be blown away. He worked incredibly hard. He was actually a pretty cool guy as well.

welcome OnAMission:)

Did you find your friend?

[JustABill]

Hmm. I pmed him about that very issue to his credibility and he said...I qoute..''This is a borrowed account from a friend."

So it appears he didn't make the account or so he says.

[Halcohol]

lol the guy's probably gotta be sorting through 50 pm's right now ;)

[Maze]

Lol and Wait untill later this day , he's gonna break down under the pms:o :D

If i was you OnAmission i would tell all ,now ,and i would run away!:o :D

[*xmenfan*]

I think once you guys see Ben in this movie, you'll definitely be blown away. He worked incredibly hard. He was actually a pretty cool guy as well.
How you know this :confused: :confused: :confused:

[Maze]

No offense OnAmission , but looking at ben physic you can tell that he has been working hard..on the acting side it's a well known fact that he is a pretty commited actor ;)

[silver_arrow]

the problem here, guys, is that SHH isn't only visited by people who made false claims, but also by some real members of xmen who confessed of their coming and going here. so which is which?

[OnAMission]

No offense taking. Angel's role, while ultimately smaller than Beast's is quite a important one. The scenes he has with his father are really brilliantly acted on both actor's accounts.

And you think you like the escape from the Labs now? Wait, till you see the whole scene.

[silver_arrow]

again, you know this because...? can you give us hints of your credibility?

[*xmenfan*]

angels role is small :mad: :mad: o lol

[Maze]

Yup , good :)

what about his others scenes are they as good?

[*xmenfan*]

again, you know this because...? can you give us hints of your credibility?
hmmmmmmmm how does he know all of this lol

[Maze]

angels role is small :mad: :mad: o lol

Well Ratner said , that Angel has a small role .

[OnAMission]

Foster brings his talent to everyone of his scenes. They are all quite good. Good enough that you Angel fans won't feel like he simply got lost in all the new mutants this film is carrying on it's back.

[Halcohol]

I think small is in regards to screen time, but not to importance. Angel's going to have to carry the cure plot, showing us how mutants being forced to take the cure really feel about it.

[silver_arrow]

Guh, Isn't it Ben signed up on the Wolvie flick?

[Maze]

I think small is in regards to screen time, but not to importance. Angel's going to have to carry the cure plot, showing us how mutants being forced to take the cure really feel about it.

yup .

"The movie is much more emotional than the first two, and Angel - even though he isn't a huge character - is a driving part of the story, which centers around the creation of the cure [for mutation]."

[*xmenfan*]

Well Ratner said , that Angel has a small role .
o ok lol didn't know that :)

[OnAMission]

Angel most likely will not appear in Logan's solo film, because it's a prequel and would mess up the continuity of the franchise. He has a much greater chance of appearing in the Young X-Men spin-off.

[silver_arrow]

I think Angel's real part in the plot is his being the reason why the cure has been made, thanks to his father's dream of curing his son.

[Maze]

Foster brings his talent to everyone of his scenes. They are all quite good. Good enough that you Angel fans won't feel like he simply got lost in all the new mutants this film is carrying on it's back.
good !

So ,he is not lost among all the new mutants ? good , why? does he really give them a run for their money on the last act?

[silver_arrow]

really?

[OnAMission]

Angel amongst the entire cast of this film gives everyone a run for their money at one point in time in this film. This film's cast is simply breathtaking in this film.

[Halcohol]

Okay, OnAMission... what actor seemed to be enjoying the movie the LEAST?

[silver_arrow]

and we should believe you because...? c'mon hint, hint.

[Halcohol]

Because we've got nothing else to talk about and he isn't telling us anything we don't already know

[silver_arrow]

ok, what about the flying...how many flying scenes would we get?

[*xmenfan*]

hmmm do u lot believe onamission?

[OnAMission]

I can't give you a reason to believe me. No matter what I say there will be doubters, and I know that..I know the history of this forum.

And Halchohol, I won't answer that question for the fear of causing a storm of hatred towards that person.

[silver_arrow]

well, for one thing it makes me post more.

[Maze]

Angel amongst the entire cast of this film gives everyone a run for their money at one point in time in this film. This film's cast is simply breathtaking in this film.
Even Cyke ?

i mean apart from his scenes at the mansion ,with his bike, and at Alakali ? :o

[*xmenfan*]

And Halchohol, I won't answer that question for the fear of causing a storm of hatred towards that person.
ok :up:

[OnAMission]

Angel does a great deal of flying in this film. More than 4 times I'd say. Ben was on wire work alot. As was Halle, Ian and Famke.

[OnAMission]

As I told Halcohol in a personal message, some Cykes fans will be disappointed in his role, others will be pleasantly in love with it.

[Halcohol]

Fair enough. I was just thinking, for example, in X2 Alan Cumming was pretty honest about how miserable the make-up was, and yet most people don't bear any ill will towards him. He was just being honest because yeah, make-up for 9 hours a day WOULD suck.

Any complaints along that nature? ie maybe an annoying costume for the actor, or something like that?

[silver_arrow]

is he ever engaged in fighting?

[Maze]

As I told Halcohol in a personal message, some Cykes fans will be disappointed in his role, others will be pleasantly in love with it.

I have no doubts about that , but can we try to give us some hints of things to come please ?

[Halcohol]

is he ever engaged in fighting?
I would imagine the flying would include fighting, or else he'd just be flying around doing nothing, right?

[Halcohol]

I have no doubts about that , but can we try to give us some hints of things to come please ?
I think OAM knows that whatever hints he(she?) gives us we'll blow all out of proportion, too :p

[OnAMission]

Silver: Angel? Or Cyclops? The answer to that question would be slightly spoilerish on one of them's account. The other yes, yes they fight. Now exactly which ones am I talking about?

Hal: Kelsey would tend to get a bit grumpy towards the end of the day about his suit, but not to the degree where he was completely unbearable. That suit's a pretty hot suit so he had enough reason to complain if you ask me. Ellen felt like her suit was pretty restraining but she learned to grow into it.

[Iceman]

I would imagine the flying would include fighting, or else he'd just be flying around doing nothing, right?

Maybe he just wants a good view of the battle ;)

[Maze]

I think OAM knows that whatever hints he(she?) gives us we'll blow all out of proportion, too :p

lol if he doesn't talk a little more we will stay on what we know and we'll blow all out of proportion! lol

no seriously ,if they read from time to time the cyke thread , they just can't let them feel so miserable :o

[Halcohol]

Silver: Angel? Or Cyclops? The answer to that question would be slightly spoilerish on one of them's account. The other yes, yes they fight. Now exactly which ones am I talking about?

That suit's a pretty hot suit so he had enough reason to complain if you ask me. Ellen felt like her suit was pretty restraining but she learned to grow into it.
Well since we've only seen Cyclops at Alkali Lake, therefore the question of him fighting would be spoilerish. Angel, since we've heard he joins the team at the end of the movie, it would make sense that he would do some fighting or something else that would warrant his being made an X-Man.

As for Ellen, well, it was her first time wearing the leather suit, right? We saw in the extras in X-Men 1.5 how restraining the suits were to move in, so I think that's a legitimate gripe :D

Have you seen anything regarding Iceman's slides and such? Will they look as cool as we hope they will?

[Maze]

I think OAM knows that whatever hints he(she?) gives us we'll blow all out of proportion, too :p
Ps: and i'm french , they should not ever forget that :o :D

[silver_arrow]

well, they could cut one long flying scene into 4. but of course that wouldn't be the definition of scene as the one on the script. so 4 scenes would mean CUTS TO something (of different scenes). would you say 4 times changed in setting for angel?

[OnAMission]

I have not seen any finished effects on the film, but I'd imagine from what Shawn had to do to create the slides they are going to be pretty much one of the most awesome visuals in the films to date.

[OnAMission]

Angel is in more than 4 locations in this film.

[Halcohol]

I have not seen any finished effects on the film, but I'd imagine from what Shawn had to do to create the slides they are going to be pretty much one of the most awesome visuals in the films to date.
^Good enough for me. Thanks.

[silver_arrow]

I'm referring to Angel, of course.

[Maze]

Say onAmission, do you feel that we've been to spoiled , or there is a lot that we don't know about the last act for example? i mean like really big twists?

if yes , give us some hints please :)

[OnAMission]

There is ALOT about this film you guys simply do not know about. Mostly some of the goings on in the second and third act. The only things you've seen from the final third act of this film is the snippets of the final battle in the trailer.

Even there, nothing can prepare you for the all out chaos that will be. The final battle will be one of the most awe inspiring chaotic things you've ever seen on film.

[silver_arrow]

"Angel is in more than 4 locations in this film."

It's good to hear then. Among all of the cast whom has Ben become close with?

[Halcohol]

Even there, nothing can prepare you for the all out chaos that will be. The final battle will be one of the most awe inspiring chaotic things you've ever seen on film.

I think that's pretty much what everyone wants to believe, and what we all wanted to hear.

Cool! so that mean that we can expect some turnaround from what we know from the first act!

cool!

[OnAMission]

All the younger principal cast members. (Ellen, Ben, Anna, Shawn, Aaron, Daniel, Kea) were great friends.

[Halcohol]

Speaking of Kea, will we get to see some Jubilee action that you know about?

[Maze]

Thanks to OneAmission , i'm pretty convinced now that Cyke will come back at the end and blow away some sentinels!

yahh!

[silver_arrow]

and they met in the xmen set or were just old friends?

[OnAMission]

I wasn't on the set for much of Kea's stuff, so if there is in Jubilation action, I would not be the one to ask about it.

[Halcohol]

Well, Anna, Shawn, Kea, and Daniel all worked together on X2, so I'm sure they were friends already

[Halcohol]

OAM, do you know anything about the Ricky Hoggard/Avalanche crap?

[OnAMission]

Well, Anna, Shawn, Aaron, Daniel, and Kea were old friends. Ellen and Ben were kind of the new kids on the block.

[OnAMission]

Ricky Hoggard was never a part of the X2 production or the X3 production.

[silver_arrow]

I meant Ben met these people on xmen3 set? so would you say they have been in the same location in more than one occasion?

[OnAMission]

Ben does not have a scene with some of them, but they did still manage to become friends from being around the set.

[Maze]

He has no scenes with them?! so that mean he has no part in the final act and that he somehow disapears :(

[silver_arrow]

and you have chosen that nick because...? other than the 'because I like it' stuff and any of its synonymous kins.

[Halcohol]

^He said with some of them. That could mean he only has scenes with, say Shawn and Ellen, or something.

[Maze]

Well apart from Kea ( so it seem) they are all in the final act :(

[OnAMission]

I chose this nick because it was a friend's. They used it only once to locate a friend who once posted here.

I figured all the good names would be taken so I just borrowed his.

[silver_arrow]

Were they your on-line friends or real friends because a phone can work miracles, you know. Anyhow, could you confirm say, is there a possibility that Angel would wear an xmen uniform?

[OnAMission]

Angel does come in contact with the X-Men and does indeed wear a uniform.

[silver_arrow]

how long have you been here in SHH?

[Maze]

So does that mean , that there is like a team B of the Xmen at the end?
like some of them are fighting at the bridge , and some ..elsewhere..

[OnAMission]

I will not say exactly when in the film he comes in contact with them, but yes, he does in fact join the X-Men.

I've lurked ever since production.

[Maze]

I will not say exactly when in the film he comes in contact with them, but yes, he does in fact join the X-Men.

I've lurked ever since production.
Well , ok i understand , but if he does joins them , it make little sense that he has no part in the final act..

[silver_arrow]

Does Angel bring some stuff akin to a weapon? and please let it not be that basooka thing.

[OnAMission]

The famous bazzoka from the cover of X-Men's first issue or any weapon is never used by Angel.

[silver_arrow]

any favorite scenes?

[OnAMission]

A certain tense scene between Ororo and Logan.

[Iceman]

ROLo? ;)

[Angamb]

I hope this two will have any interaction:

[Angamb]

Ah the "if you're with us, be with us" scene ok.thanks , nice to know that it is a good scene..

I think this is for Rogue.

[Maze]

I think this is for Rogue.
If there is a tense scene between Storm and Wolverine , imo it can only be about the be with us thing..

jackman said in an interview that his character doesn't know for a lot of the movie if he is an xmen or not..

[Halcohol]

Forget the fact that the X-Men were him, Storm, and Jean in X2? That doesn't make any sense for him not to know.

[Maze]

Forget the fact that the X-Men were him, Storm, and Jean in X2? That doesn't make any sense for him not to know.

yes i agree , but that's what Jackman said , not me:o (personnaly i do only riot you know :D )

[Halcohol]

No, I know. That wasn't directed @ you, it just doesn't make any sense.

[silver_arrow]

I sure do hope Rogue and Angel have some scenes together.

[Maze]

No, I know. That wasn't directed @ you, it just doesn't make any sense.

It seem that a lot doesn't make sense in this movie , you know:o

jk :D

[Halcohol]

Maybe he starts going all vigilante on Worthington Labs, ie destroying shipments of the cure?

Then he shows up at one of the clinics and it just so happens the Brotherhood attacks it... the X-Men show up...??? Just a thought.

[Angamb]

The logan and storm scene isn¡t that, storm wears different clothes in that one. This quote has more sense with Rogue.

[Maze]

I just checked , for me she wears the same clothes? :confused:

[berzerko89]

yep that fit leather outfit... who on earth invented those types of costumes?

[grey_jeanie]

I like them on screen but in real life they are so impractical. Especially if you have a piar of huge wings sticking out your back!

[berzerko89]

true... how will actually fit those wings in his shirt or costume... they should probably explain it as well... and i hope they dont say that they put holes in that outfit then how will the wings fit thru??? or mayb he'll remain topless all througout the movie which girls will be crazy about... i wonder...

[grey_jeanie]

There are pictures of him in his uniform. He must have like a flap - maybe poppers or velcro. Awwww

[silver_arrow]

they probably just buttoned his back.

I don't know if this has been brought up before but I was looking in my X-men guide book and it says that angels second power is accelerated healing, do you think will see this in the movie? It also says that anyone who comes in contact with him will be healed! maybe Angel will use his healing to cure the legacy virus which kills him.

[Specter313]

First of all, there is no legacy virus in the film, so I don't know where you're getting that from. Second, that is only a recent development, and it only happens when people come in contact with his blood, which would not be pretty to do on film.

[Star]

The healing power is pretty recent, like a secondary mutation... (why did i say 'like'... it IS a secondary mutation haha..)

So, since they're just introducing him, probably not.

[WorthyStevens]

I wouldnt say 'again', becuase thats just the end of the scene where he jumps out of the window?!

But still, erotic.

[Angamb]

Why we see the stunt double??

Apart of this, the new shot of the scene is really great. I wonder how will be his next flying scenes? Can't wai for this character! and for Rogue too, and for Kitty too!

But that new part sure doesn't look like the stunt double! It's cool we actually see him leaping from the inside as well as when he breaks out of the window.

I was checking my emails just now, and I get Marvel's newsletter. I clicked on the thing that said, "Hold Everything! X-Men: The Last Stand Movie Stills – Part 2."

Well um...they showed the pic with Angel looking out the window. The manip one. Where his reflection is on the ground, and he has no pants. Marvel made a boo boo....

:eek: :eek: OMFG thats awsome!

[WorthyStevens]

The shot of Angel in the tv spot looks more like Ben to me now...Maybe they digitally painted some of Ben's features onto the stunt double's body..

-TNC

Ben did some of his own stunts, so maybe that's the part he did do.

[MoiBijou]

Ben did some of his own stunts, so maybe that's the part he did do.

No, in another pic you see clearly it's a stunt who breaks the window. Now it seems they've put Ben's face over the stunt's one.

[WorthyStevens]

No, in another pic you see clearly it's a stunt who breaks the window. Now it seems they've put Ben's face over the stunt's one.

Ah, ok.

I thought TNC was talking about the new shot shown in the tv spot. ;)

[Storm22]

Yeah that tv spot shot of Angel was Foster himself, I think.

[Star]

Yeah that tv spot shot of Angel was Foster himself, I think.

well ... yeah? becuase from what i remember didnt he do the shorter drops or something...? so the one at the top of the window would be too high for the actual actor, but the 'shorter' fall would be him, perhaps?

[Aiden]

I thought the person that took photos of it said that Ben did part of the opening fall and did part of the end?

wow!

[WorthyStevens]

I thought the person that took photos of it said that Ben did part of the opening fall and did part of the end?

I never heard that.

[Storm22]

I heard he did the part at the end, where he's coming in to land. I'm pretty sure that was him in the tv spot.

[WorthyStevens]

I heard he did the part at the end, where he's coming in to land. I'm pretty sure that was him in the tv spot.

Maybe the stunt double only did the part where Angel breaks through the glass.

[Storm22]

No the stunt double did most of it, he broke from the glass, came swooping down but I think Foster took over as Angel got closer, flying over the crowd/coming in to land. I remember Foster saying something about it on MTV.

[lordofthenerds]

Maybe the stunt double only did the part where Angel breaks through the glass.
Yeah, that and the very first part of the flight. It was definently Ben in the TV spot though.

[WorthyStevens]

Yeah, that and the very first part of the flight. It was definently Ben in the TV spot though.

You'd think that since Ben's playing a character with flight, he might actually want to, I don't know, fly. :p

Although Angel does have more flying scenes, so who knows what Ben did during those parts.

[WorthyStevens]

No the stunt double did most of it, he broke from the glass, came swooping down but I think Foster took over as Angel got closer, flying over the crowd/coming in to land. I remember Foster saying something about it on MTV.

Ah, I see.

I would've done the whole stunt. :o :p

[TNC9852002]

Ah, ok.

I thought TNC was talking about the new shot shown in the tv spot. ;)
No...I'm talking about the old shot of him breaking out through the glass the first time (as seen in the last trailer)...It looks a bit more like Foster than before...

They made the glass look a little more realistic, although it was real glass in the right one, it still looks fake IMO. lol

[WorthyStevens]

I would have LOVED to have done that stunt. :(

[PhoenixRising]

Really? All that glass in your face....and around your bare chest? Ack! :eek:

[WorthyStevens]

It would have been one hell of a rush. And I love rushes. :D

[LEX]

I think it's the same guy. The body matches the right one. Just a blurry angle, that's all. :o

[Iceman]

After all the trailers and TV spots, have we seen Angel in more than one scene yet?

[Electrix]

Just the 'breaking free' scene.

Simon or Zak said he meets the X-Men at some point...they arnt going to show that bit.

[LEX]

Yeah, they will want to keep it as a surprise. For the general audience, I mean.

[Specter313]

Just the 'breaking free' scene.

Simon or Zak said he meets the X-Men at some point...they arnt going to show that bit.

I think that one scene in the first trailer when Storm, Beast, and Wolverine are looking out the X-Jet window with those "WTF" looks on their faces is when they first find Angel.

that would be cool

[DarknessOfDeath]

yeah... me too. Just add some fake wings and die a horrible death... that would be me though...

[Avalanche]

I was beginning to wonder whether that was going to be the case. The more time has gone by, the more I've brought myself to the conclusion that Angel will be a cure plot device that will never actually become involved in the X-Men/Brotherhood issues.

[LEX]

I think that one scene in the first trailer when Storm, Beast, and Wolverine are looking out the X-Jet window with those "WTF" looks on their faces is when they first find Angel.
Hmmph. I got the expression that they were looking at the final battle.

[peteapan]

Im sure Angel will meet up with the Xmen at some point. You throw one of the founders in the new film and not even have him meet up woth his team mates then it would be beyond a bit odd. Beast has the fast track cos it appears he was in the team prior to the team we see in X1 but Im confident Angel will join in much the same way as Nightcrawler in the second.

[DarknessOfDeath]

[JustABill]

Haha.

Storm: Son of a *****! Here I am flying this damn jet again! I thought my role was suppose to be more than flying the jet this time!
Wolverine: Ororo, you are brooding out loud again!
Storm: Shut up and buckle your damn seat belt!
Wolverine: Ororo! Watch out! It's a bird!
Storm: That ain't no damn bird foo! That be a boy! Hank! Get your ***** punk ass in here and look at this!
Beast: Oh my stars and garters! It's a winged boy....an Angel.

[LEX]

Yeah.

Nice manip.

[Iceman]

Hmmph. I got the expression that they were looking at the final battle.

That's what I thought too :confused:


They look upset.

[LEX]

Yeah. Maybe I thought that b/c the "Magneto's got an army out there" line was after (I think) the jet part. What else could they be scared or surprised at? Magneto's got a frigging army.

[WorthyStevens]

Maybe they're seeing Magneto pulling apart the bridge?

[TNC9852002]

Hmmmm...I guess we don't know a whole lot about the action that takes place during the X-Men and the X-Jet and when Beast actually joins to fight...

It could be anything....

I'm leaning towards Worthy's guess..

-TNC

[LEX]

Maybe they're seeing Magneto pulling apart the bridge?
That seems most likely, I guess.

[Specter313]

But it's too light out in the scene where they're looking out the window for them to be looking at what's going on with the bridge or at Alcatraz. The bridge being pulled apart happens at sun down and Alcatraz is at night. The scene when they're looking out the jet windows is full day.

That logic is a little flawed (i.e., post production tweaking)...It's impossible to determine for sure right now...

http://img441.imageshack.us/img441/7448/cap0990dz.jpg

And no, TNC, that's not flawed thinking. The shots inside the Jet would clearly be shot against a green screen, and they'd clearly use that evening sundown colored sky in that shot for inside the jet and not a sky that's the color it is about midday if they were indeed watching Magneto destroy the bridge. And why would they just sit there and watch him do it anyway? That doesn't make sense for them to just sit and watch him destroy something that's like a national monument.

[LEX]

How do we know that the jet is at San Francisco in the pic?

Edit: Right. The Worthington Labs building.

[Specter313]

How do we know that the jet is at San Francisco in the pic?

Because the Trans-america pyramid is right there in the background.

[Halcohol]

From the skyline.

Though Specter is mistaken in assuming that's the ONLY time we'll see the jet fly over San Francisco. There could be multiple passes over San Fran over the course of a few hours.

I'm guessing they're just in awe of what he's actually doing. He's actually tearing apart the Golden Gate Bridge.

thats what i thought

Exactly.

Again, they wouldn't just sit there, they'd do something about it.

:rolleyes:

And what other time would you expect them to be flying over San Franciso?

[WorthyStevens]

Again, they wouldn't just sit there, they'd do something about it.

Well, we only see them sitting there for a second or two. We don't see what happens after that.

Hell, I'd be in shock for a few seconds seeing someone tear apart a bridge like the Golden Gate.

[PWN3R]

Again, they wouldn't just sit there, they'd do something about it.


Spec c'mon, its only a pic. Thats most likely their first reaction. We don't see what they do next.

[Halcohol]

Oh, I don't know, perhaps after dropping the X-Men in mid-air over Alcatraz?

Angel escaping? Juggs chasing Kitty? We don't know anything.

Again, they wouldn't just sit there, they'd do something about it.
It's not like they're sitting there, staring in awe for five minutes. Of course, they're going to be shocked for a few seconds. At either Magneto ripping the Golden Gate bridge apart or Magneto's huge frigging army.

[Specter313]

Oh, I don't know, perhaps after dropping the X-Men in mid-air over Alcatraz?

Which would still be happening at night.

[Specter313]

Angel escaping? Juggs chasing Kitty? We don't know anything.

What would they be doing there for Angel escaping? And Juggs chasing Kitty is happening at Alcatraz.

[Halcohol]

....

nevermind, Specter. Just nevermind.

[Specter313]

....

nevermind, Specter. Just nevermind.

Nevermind what? We know the X-Men don't get there until night.

[WorthyStevens]

Storm, Beast, and Wolverine are also in their uniforms. I'm also betting Kitty, Pietr and Bobby are in the X-Jet too. Something tells me they're headed to try and stop Magneto, then they see what he's actually pulling off... tearing the bridge apart.

[LEX]

What would they be doing there for Angel escaping? And Juggs chasing Kitty is happening at Alcatraz.
Why are you asking me? I haven't seen the movie. :rolleyes:

[Specter313]

Why are you all attacking me on this? You all sit here worrying how Angel actually meets the X-Men and I give you a perfectly logical reason for when it could happen and you jump all over me going "Oh no, it can't happen that way."

[TNC9852002]

Specter, why would you assume, out of all of the unfinished shots in the movie, that the SKY shot from inside the jet would be FINISHED?..

I would like to point out the scene in the X2 trailer where Storm turns around to walk to Nightcrawler in the jet, the sky is all cloudy whereas in the final film, there's not a cloud in sight..

I'm not saying I'm right, and I'm not saying that you're wrong...I'm just saying that it's impossible to tell for sure...right now..

-TNC

[LEX]

^Yes. I absolutely agree. We don't know anything.

http://www.thexverse.com/assets/gallery/xtls/trailers/teaser1/cap065.jpg

Oh, I don't know, seeing a man with wings for the first time in their lives? There's no way anyone, mutants included, could not be somewhat shocked at seeing a man acutally flying with giant wings for the first time.

I highly doubt seeing what appears to be a big bird in the sky would put THAT look on Halle's face.

But that's just me.

[Specter313]

Oh come on. It's the first time she'd seen someone flying with wings. Why wouldn't something like that give cause to have that look on her face? Anyone would have a look like that on their face if that happened.

I dunno, your idea sounds cool. Its just that, they are in their X-uniforms, and Beast is with them. They are going to the 'war' Wolverine was talking to Kitty about in the trailer. Thats what it appears to be to me...

[Halcohol]

And Angel would logically still be in the San Francisco area. He can't fly that far that fast. They could encounter him on their way there, but have him stay in the jet when they're fighting, or he goes back to his father to try and stop what's going on with the cure. There, he finds Rogue and when she changes her mind about taking the cure, they go to the final battle. That way, everyone's in the area and it's logical for them to be making it there to help out the other X-Men in time.

^Yes. That or seeing Angel for the first time.

^Yes. That or seeing Angel for the first time.

Thank you. I know the shock and awe of seeing him has died down for us since we've been seeing that kinda stuff for awhile now, but remember that would be the first time of seeing him for them. Just think back to the first time you saw him spread spread his wings and fly and try to tell me some kind of similar look wasn't on your faces.

I think I had that look on my face for the entire teaser, but still :p

I have a feeling Spec might be on to something.


But Angel in his x-suit, will most likely happen at the end. I dunno, if its the last movie, most likely there will be like an epic last shot of the x-men.

Well said. Yes, I do remember the first time I saw Angel. It was amazing and I had to watch the teaser over 20 times to get that awe-feeling off my chest.

[josh8]

it's a nice idea, but i highly doubt that's the case. it does look like they're in the x-jet because they're on their way to confront magneto. and if they were to meet angel at this point, it would bring the narrative to a complete halt and ruin the flow.

[Exploding Boy]

http://www.thexverse.com/assets/gallery/xtls/trailers/teaser1/cap065.jpg

This picture to me looks like "Holy Sh**, look at that army of mutants marching with Magneto." So I doubt that they are looking at him destroying the bridge. Ok stupid question time. Is that pic of the marching on the GG Bridge? And if it is then wouldnt they be walking on it, get across then Mags destroys it?

[TNC9852002]

Hmmm...In the tv spot, this shot, with the digitally altered Beast neck, the sky in the window is cut off..

-TNC

[Exploding Boy]

Really? Thats strange.

[Specter313]

Well, tv's typically aren't as wide as movie screens. :p

[TNC9852002]

It was cut off in all the times I watched the trailer at work too...Hmmm..


Ahh...Of course...The movie screen ratios aren't the same as the ones in the downloadable trailers, so, there's gonna be a little stretching and cutting...I don't have the exact figures, but I'm pretty sure that's it..
