The TEASER TRAILER anticipation thread

[Golgo-13]

I think the trailer looked cool.

Look at the bright side; it can't possibly be any worse than X3....

[Van Petrol]

Good trailer! :up:

[Primal Slayer]

Whats up with the bamf guy with the tail? Nightcrawler?

[Hurm...]

http://i56.tinypic.com/2m43wis.jpg
I want to pet him so badly.

[The Sage]

Um, I'm saying it before hand that he had a massive hand in it and well...because I worked on the film. Haha. Dork.

Congrats on that. :up:

Wasn't sure what to expect from this film, but it's on my must see list.

[Marvin]

It's interesting to see how surprised most people are about this trailer looking good. There really was no doubt considering who's directing.

I just wonder if Xaiver really will loose his hair in cerebro.

[Crockett]

Whats up with the bamf guy with the tail? Nightcrawler?

That's Azazel, Nightcrawler's father.

[Hurm...]

I mean, LOOK at that. Flawless.
Is it CGI or makeup? Not a fan of the design, but it looks impressive.

[Kane52630]

What do you mean? I'm always here at SHH! (and other places)

really? oh well, I havent seen you since the Watchmen boards.

[LuisTX85]

I'm very impressed!,Passed my expectations big time,But so this is officially a prequel to X1-3 right??

How is Angel in this one though when Warren was in his early 20's in X3 and he did not even know about Xavier/Magneto and the X-men......Then Beast is in this when Hank was in human form in the little X2 appearance(unless he can shift back&forth!?)

The next Wolverine movie will ignore Origins,Will this one too??

[psyonic]

Who's the girl with the wings?


http://i54.tinypic.com/106hxev.jpg

Angel Salvadore

[J.Howlett]

So, that's who Azazel is? Not up on my X-Men comic book lore.

Still, X2 didn't really say one way or the other about Mystique and Nightcrawler. It was more homage to the fans.

Has Singer decided to give a definite answer in this film?

[Lighthouse]

I like the restrained feeling of this trailer. The action scenes looks cool, but not crazy.

[J.Howlett]

Luis,

Well, the Beast on the TV in X2 is a slight problem but it's also a blink and you'll miss moment as well. It's not something I would completely worry about.

[GREEN =w= DAY]

i had my doubts about the movie, but the trailer is good

it doesn't even really seem like an X-Men movie, but more like a great 60s era action/thriller

the guy playing Magneto is badass!

loved the cinematography and music

and as many of you have already said, this can't be worse than X3

[Hurm...]

I think this film is ultimately it's own take on the X-Men mythos, with a very small following of the first 3 films. I think they only added Singer's X-Men scenes at the beginning of the trailer so that the audience is aware that this is not a reboot. Just a loose prequel.

[LuisTX85]

alright,But what about Angel??

[Mace Bloodstone]

kevin bacon?? :applaud

http://i52.tinypic.com/3142c9l.jpg

[marvelrobbins]

I'm curious about the whole Azazel/Mystique/Nightcrawler thing now. They are positioning this as a prequel, and yet Mystique shows total indifference to reuniting with Nightcrawler in X2.

Perhapes In film contunity Nightcrawler Is unwanted product of Azarel forcing
himself on Mystique.

[Storm22]

Love the trailer. Very impressive. Question - who is the character, the man, we see dive into the sea during the boat scenes?

[bosef982]

Love the trailer. Very impressive. Question - who is the character, the man, we see dive into the sea during the boat scenes?

Banshee

[Visceral]

Beast looks ****ing awesome!!!!!

who is in your avatar?

[Storm22]

Banshee

Ah cool, thanks.

[X-Maniac]

alright,But what about Angel??

Angel - the male,-bird-winged, Warren Worthington version - is not in the film. Never was. Wasn't born at the time if we are taking X3 into account.

We do have a lesser-known, female, insect-winged mutant who is called Angel Salvadore. She is in the film.

[conan69]

Its got the right feel to it.

"Before he was Professor X, he was Charlies,etc..."

Reminded me of when they were dong the first film, and were thinking of not using codenames at all.

I was very skeptical at first too, but liked the info we were getting, the promo pics, Fox seems to be staying out of the damn way and giving thin creative team total control.

It looks pretty good to me, and I hope theyve learned from their mistakes.


Did that Lockheed plane exist back then? Will have to wiki that and look it up.

Answer: Yup, it did.

[Raiden]

I think the trailer looked cool.

Look at the bright side; it can't possibly be any worse than X3....

The fact that we have Matthew Vaughn as the director instead of Brett RATner is a massive upgrade in and of itself.

[Mace Bloodstone]

http://i54.tinypic.com/2viqz34.jpg

[danoyse]

Just watched it, finally. Damn it looks good! :awesome:

[Binker]

Does anyone know what the music is that was used in the trailer?

[The Batman]

Wow.

I just went from not caring for this flick at all, to this becoming the movie im most hyped about.

I was excited for this trailer in a way i...simply wasnt for thor, cap, OR GL.

I will say though, its painfully obvious that magneto will be the "wolverine" of this film....but screw it. the fact that wolverine aint in this film completely makes up for that.

color me impressed

[SuperBatman]

That looks a lot better than what I was actually expecting. I am so seeing this when it comes out.

[Paroxysm]

Pixie looked pretty young, she better be at least 18.

[Visceral]

Yeah that was sick trailer. I know Magneto was going to own this.

[JPJappic]

Eh.... I watched this trailer, and then I watched the X-Men The Last Stand Trailer and I have to say the X3 trailer was alot better.

I don't even know how to feel about this movie right now.. part of me is really excited cause it's the X-Men.. and the other part of me just doesn't really want to care because the lore side of me says that everything is just butchered to %&$#. So I'm at 50/50.. I'll see the movie anyways and just take it as it is I guess.

[conan69]

A bit sad Leland doesnt seem to be in the film though - hes a classic Hellfire Club character and should have been included.

[Paroxysm]

and the other part of me just doesn't really want to care because the lore side of me says that everything is just butchered to %&$#. So I'm at 50/50.. I'll see the movie anyways and just take it as it is I guess.

and the other X-men films weren't?

[shadowforce420]

I didn't care for this movie but the trailer sold me, I'm in.

[neemer5]

Naked strippers, naked women in bed, January Jones in a Sharon Stone pose... considering this is a movie about the formation of a school, it's very adult-like. Not that its a bad thing

[Stringer]

It looks better than I thought it would, but honestly it was a pretty boring trailer.

[GoldGoblin]

http://i54.tinypic.com/2viqz34.jpg

Who is this red Nightcrawler,because he teleports in the trailer?

[Lighthouse]

The trailer just looks cool. No cheesy yelling, no overdramatic, introspective dialogue(Good God, am I sick of that), and no eyeball ****ing CGI action scenes. Good actors, somber tone, and awesome but restrained set pieces. It's tremendously refreshing.

[JPJappic]

and the other X-men films weren't?

I'm talking about about the culmination of all of them up to this point. Sorry I wasn't clear enough.

[Paroxysm]

Naked strippers, naked women in bed, January Jones in a Sharon Stone pose... considering this is a movie about the formation of a school, it's very adult-like. Not that its a bad thing

They'll be ok this takes place in the early 1960s, Chris Hansen was just a toddler but then again don't underestimate him.

"Mr. Xavier, go ahead and have a seat on that stool over there. We have a transcript of your telepathic conversation with our underage decoy."

[Darkness Falls]

it looks great :)
loved the little interaction between charles and eric

"listen carefully my friend, killing will not bring you peace"
"peace was never an option"

to me that perfectly sums up their different views and their eventual downfall :)

just like in tdk when joker tells bataman they'll fight forever because neither one will kill the other

[samsnee]

Not bad. The whole "Before he was Magneto" beginning gives off a romantic movie vibe but the pacing looks way much better than X3. Fassbender has got me sold on this as Magneto if nothing else. I wish this was a reboot instead of a prequel just so we don't have X-3 and Wolverine as part of this universe. (Edit comment)

[GoldGoblin]

It's kind of refreshening not to see Wolverine in this,we get a real X-Men movie now.

[Yurka]

The young Will.I.am look alike gave me a bad taste in my mouth.

My sentiments exactly.

[Matt Mortem]

Who is this red Nightcrawler,because he teleports in the trailer?

Azazel. In the comics he's Nightcrawlers daddy (painful storyline altogether). Mystique and Azazel get together and make Nightcrawler.

[Matt Mortem]

The young Will.I.am look alike gave me a bad taste in my mouth.

He's a decent actor though, so with any luck we won't get any godawful Will.I.am repeats

[8Diagrams(WU)]

This looks pretty good actually. I like the whole swinging sixties nod to the origins of the Xmen. I wish they would distance themselves from the original movies though.

I will say this. McAvoy as Professor Xavier is genious. His line delivery to magneto about peace is great!

[Yurka]

He's a decent actor though, so with any luck we won't get any godawful Will.I.am repeats

Is he playing the same character though?

[Matt Mortem]

Everything I saw looks great!!! I wonder what the cause of Beast's transformation will be?

[Matt Mortem]

Is he playing the same character though?

No, he's playing Darwin

[Supermanreturns]

OMG :wow: This is AWESOME!

Some things I notice after about 30 times (sorry if already posted).

http://i56.tinypic.com/2uj2fdz.jpg
In this scene Erik has a gun in hand...

http://i52.tinypic.com/2q1xc1d.jpg
The :wow: Emma's Bikini. And...Who's the guy behind Shaw? Riptide?

http://i52.tinypic.com/2isxtgx.jpg
The Oliver Platt's character (Man in Black) is with Erik, Charles, Moira and Mystique in this scene where Beast try his powers...

http://i55.tinypic.com/9905k3.jpg
Interesting. Thanks also to the trilogy we now know that Mystique is a good...b***h :woot: She loves Erik, she loves Charles, in this scene she's kissing Beast and we know also she will be a "love" for Azazel...

http://i52.tinypic.com/mbstjm.jpg
Fassbender's Magneto is way more violent than McKellen's. In this scene you can see the knife in the stomach of the left's guy...

Wow.

[Project862006]

this looks so good only captain america has my attention as much

sorry thor you just look like thor nothing more nothing less and gl needs a better trailer big time

[Matt Mortem]

I love how brutal Magneto is portrayed as being

Darwin. He's a grey alien looking mutant in the comics. His power is evolution or some something like that. Somebody else can explain it better

[The Wizard]

At the 50 second mark, Charles opens a door to what looks like a vault. Any thoughts on that? Also, I'm wondering if we'll see Charles telepathically control Erik at some point in the film.

Also, someone mentioned Mystique would serve as a love interest of Azazel's. Has this been confirmed?

[Hurm...]

Finally saw the trailer. Wow. I'm so glad this comes out in a few months!

[J.Howlett]

bosef,

You're killing me with the hints.

Oh, what could've been in 2006 had Fox not screwed things up.

Takes them 5 years and two bad films to come back around.

Please cinema Gods, let this validate Singer.

[Yurka]

:lmao:

Seriously? I know nothing about that character but that is hilarious.

[Project862006]

:lmao:

Seriously? I know nothing about that character but that is hilarious.
put it this way if he goes underwater his body will adapt to it and grow gills

he gets set on fire he becomes fireproof

his power is to adapt to any situation

[Wolverine1988]

Yeah i to was wondering who was with Shaw Frost and Azazel in both those shots in the trailer?

I am guessing Riptide?

And iam guessing thats the HellFireclub as a whole(Shaw,Frost,Azazel,Riptide)

[Matt Mortem]

Darwins kind of a cool concept, but the character never really grew on me

[Boom]

Magneto's costume looks so ****ing cool :up:.

Well, from the back anyway. Hope I can say the same thing about the front when I see it.

[Lighthouse]

:lmao:

Seriously? I know nothing about that character but that is hilarious.

I think he can regress to previous evolutionary traits. Like if he's underwater, he can grow gills to breathe, and grow claws to climb walls. Stuff like that.

[jacobed]

That last little interaction between Xavier and Erik is better than porn.

[The Wizard]

Any idea when/if we'll get another trailer at some point?

[Kane52630]

Eh, I think you can divide the blame a little more then just "Fox screwed up". Yeah, they seriously dragged their heels and made bad decisions, but Singer did decide to totally jump ship to Superman Returns, and he would have done it again if WB hadn't taken steps to completely lock him in to Jack the Giant Killer.

[ALP]

Yeah Magneto's costume looks great and I like the actor too.

I am officially excited!

[ladymidnight]

so was what we saw a teaser or an actual trailer?

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

Well, I freaking loved the trailer, first X-trailer to give me goosebumps since X2's, glad it looks like we are getting a quality X-Men movie again.

EDIT: Knew Fassbender would be good as Mag's, but THIS good? He may be better than McKellan, and thats no mean feat!

[J.Howlett]

Lighthouse,

That's not accurate. The ridiculously long negotiations on X3, which there shouldn't have been, is what made Singer jump ship.

Everyone in the industry couldn't understand why Fox hadn't signed Singer to X3 after the profits of X2.

That's why he jumped to Superman Returns. Fox's lack of faith in him, which is totally absurd, is what made him leave the franchise when he never wanted to.

[Mrpaul]

Nice trailer

[Dr.Negative]

couple of questions
http://www.**************.com/images/uploads/xmf4.jpg
1. Is this an R rated film?
http://www.**************.com/images/uploads/xmf7.jpg
2. Does anyone else think Teddy Bear
http://www.**************.com/images/uploads/xmf11.jpg
3. Why is his foot mutating? from what i remember beasts foot was ready big they just turn blue. well in the comics grey then blue.
http://www.**************.com/images/uploads/xmf12.jpg
4. Kevin Bacon, Janary Jones... Aston Ketcher?
http://www.**************.com/images/uploads/xmf13.jpg
5. "Marty we got to go BACK TO THE FUTURE"
http://www.**************.com/images/uploads/xmf15.jpg
6. This bit actually made me happy because it reminded me of the very first X-Men Comic where you see Magneto fighting an army base.

[Lighthouse]

:up: Spot on, anyone who was around here at the time knows what went down.

I was here at the time.

[Figs]

Does this happen before or after The Basterds come in?

:woot:

[Doctor Jones]

Love seeing the beginning of Cerebro.

[Visceral]

Peace was never an option.

I have missed the X-men. I like the style definitely on the anticipation list.

[Lighthouse]

couple of questions
http://www.**************.com/images/uploads/xmf4.jpg
1. Is this an R rated film?


This is the weirdest part of the trailer. Is she topless here?

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

I was here at the time.

Then you should know that Fox treated Singer like a piece of **** on the first 2 movies, giving him budgets that even at the time were that big, and then they dithered with the X3 contract relentlessly also.

WB come along, give him a $200 million dollar budget and all the freedom in the world and you blame him for leaving? Not to mention he said he'd happily do X3 after SR?

Sorry, but Singer has and always will be blameless to me in that situation. It showed Fox's incompetence at the time they couldnt even get a half decent director to take over.

[terry78]

I think this movie will go back to the Magneto that you reluctantly do root for, if it showcases how ****ed up his life has been and how he's been treated.

[Doctor Jones]

I love that back shot of Magneto. It makes me look forward to his turn to becoming bad even more. I hope it feels very tragic. I really want to feel the reason why. In a way, we can't help but feel bad for him and understand why he turned, even though it is wrong. Fassbender is capable of this.

[X-Maniac]

Lighthouse,

That's not accurate. The ridiculously long negotiations on X3, which there shouldn't have been, is what made Singer jump ship.

Everyone in the industry couldn't understand why Fox hadn't signed Singer to X3 after the profits of X2.

That's why he jumped to Superman Returns. Fox's lack of faith in him, which is totally absurd, is what made him leave the franchise when he never wanted to.

It's never that simple. Singer was interested in doing Superman right back around the time X2 was released, there is an interview somewhere where he expresses a keenness to do a Superman movie.

Negotiations over X3 obviously weren't getting anywhere (for whatever reason: money, terms, etc). From the outside, it certainly does look like Fox were slow in locking him in for another X-Men movie, but there's obviously a lot more to it.

This is all pointless though. I can't help but notice you keep going on and on and on about this and keep clinging on to might-have-beens from years and years ago.

All we can hope is that Fox has learned from its mistakes. It next has to learn to allow more time for such big films, in order to prevent them appearing to be 'rushed'.

[Schlosser85]

This actually looks really cool, especially Magneto lifting the submarine, and all the missiles firing.

James McAvoy has the Xavier eyebrows, and I guess there's enough resemblance to accept McAvoy and Fassbender as the younger versions of Stewart and McKellen.

The trailer actually made me curious about Nicholas Hoult as Beast.

[gap5ewl]

I wonder if its connected to that scene of him holding some type of syringe ??

[Kingslayer]

Same Room?



I think that's a safe assumption. Question is, what is this room anyway!?

[X-Maniac]

Not to mention he said he'd happily do X3 after SR?

That argument is deeply flawed.

If SR had led to a sequel, or even a trilogy, then he wouldn't have been free to return to the X-Men franchise.

And they did hire Vaughn back then to step in. It was only when Vaughn backed out that things became frantic.

In fairness to Ratner, his work on X3 seems more confident and capable than Gavin Hood's work on Wolverine. For all the things he could have done better, he successfully made that movie under a huge amount of pressure, with very little pre-production time.

[Ultimate Doom]

It is old, but people seem unable to let go. Worryingly so.

[Hunter Rider]

The teaser trailer didn't impress me at all, I just didn't feel anything in it making me excited for the film and the CGI looked very poor.

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

That argument is deeply flawed.

If SR had led to a sequel, or even a trilogy, then he wouldn't have been free to return to the X-Men franchise.

Nolan has done Inception and produced the new Superman film in between TDK and TDKR, dont see any reason Singer couldnt do X3 between SR and a possible SR 2.

And they did hire Vaughn back then to step in. It was only when Vaughn backed out that things became frantic.

It was frantic when he signed, they signed him well too late, so he didnt have time to properly make it his, and he didnt have a hands-on producer like he does now with Singer, dont blame him for backing out and never will.

In fairness to Ratner, his work on X3 seems more confident and capable than Gavin Hood's work on Wolverine. For all the things he could have done better, he successfully made that movie under a huge amount of pressure, with very little pre-production time.

In fairness Ratner did do well with what he given, but at the same time, all the pre-production was done when he came on board, and he still made some terrible decisions along the way, will never forget how pissed off I got at the "I have ADD so the movie will only be 90 mins" interview.

At least X3 was entertaining to me, yes very flawed as film but the action scenes were awsome and it had a good pacing imo,

Wolverine was such a duh, you can't blame fox on that Gavin Hood was a horrible choice to begin with and you could see he had no clue about Wolverine the character.

[X-Maniac]

Nolan has done Inception and produced the new Superman film in between TDK and TDKR, dont see any reason Singer couldnt do X3 between SR and a possible SR 2.

Well, Nolan was still within the walls of Warner Bros on all those. If he wanted to go to another studio, that might be different.

It was frantic when he signed, they signed him well too late, so he didnt have time to properly make it his, and he didnt have a hands-on producer like he does now with Singer, dont blame him for backing out and never will.

I think he was foolish not to try to make it work at that point, but each to their own.

In fairness Ratner did do well with what he given, but at the same time, all the pre-production was done when he came on board, and he still made some terrible decisions along the way, will never forget how pissed off I got at the "I have ADD so the movie will only be 90 mins" interview.

Well, I don't think there was any more completed footage to make it any longer to be honest!

But let's move on from this. These arguments never go anywhere, why do you and Howlett keep going back to the past all the time? It seems very hung up and neurotic.

[chaseter]

Okay. I'm not really up to speed. Is this a reboot or not?

It's a mix of both. It is trying to stay true to X1 and X2 but Vaughn isn't bending over backwards to continuity and if this movie is a success we will get another trilogy with this cast. I do think this will be in line with X1 and X2 very closely though and X3 and Wolverine will be largely ignored.

[protocida]

I think that's a safe assumption. Question is, what is this room anyway!?
CIA headquarters interrogation room.

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

At least X3 was entertaining to me, yes very flawed as film but the action scenes were awsome and it had a good pacing imo,

Wolverine was such a duh, you can't blame fox on that Gavin Hood was a horrible choice to begin with and you could see he had no clue about Wolverine the character.

Actually, its well known that Fox had a heavy hand in Wolverine being plop.

[X-Maniac]

Wolverine was such a duh, you can't blame fox on that Gavin Hood was a horrible choice to begin with and you could see he had no clue about Wolverine the character.

I think Hood was just out of his depth. You can sense Ratner is part of the Hollywood movie machine. Hood isn't. And it showed. From what Hood was saying beforehand, he had a grasp on the Wolverine character. But he got swallowed up by the system and lacked the skills and clout to complete such a massive production.

Really? I thought most of the action was blah and the pacing was terrible. I don't hate X3(I think it was just ok), but the pacing really bugged me.

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

Well, Nolan was still within the walls of Warner Bros on all those. If he wanted to go to another studio, that might be different.

It may have strained the relationship a little, but I doubt they would have spat their dummy out and fast tracked TDKR to come out this or next year if he would have done.

Fair enough, I personally think he knew he was in a lose-lose situation at that point.

Well, I don't think there was any more completed footage to make it any longer to be honest!

Havent owned the movie for a while, but from what I remember there were plenty of deleted scene's on the DVD.

But let's move on from this. These arguments never go anywhere, why do you and Howlett keep going back to the past all the time? It seems very hung up and neurotic.

At the same time, I could enquire as to why you still feel the need to defend what happened at the time? At the end of the day though, I felt what they gave us wasnt in the least bit satisfying, and was a bit of a spit in the face to the fans, as a paying consumer, I was dissatisfied with the product, in a major way. And as I have always said, this is just my personal view on things.

[PsyJ]

I think the trailer was good but not great. I'm glad that now we finally have a trailer and I'm still cautiously optimistic about this movie.

What??

Why doesn't it look like an X-men movie to you? It's a small trailer, you can't get the feel for the entire film off of that.

[I Am The Knight]

I very much liked the trailer. Big fan of Vaughn due to Stardust and Kick-Ass...It seems the X-Men franchise can finally be good again.

[BoredGuy]

no i know i know.
but nothing about it feels like the x-men to me outside of (weird-lookin) beast flying a blackbird.
can't place my finger on it, maybe it's just that its a completely made up story unrelated to any of the comics

and before anyone says it, I know the other films had made up stories too, but idk, they just looked more like x-men to me

I really love this scene. It has some kind of David Lynch's tone and "freakness", and I never thought I would see that kind of thing in a X-Men film! :awesome:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v323/wx1585/vlcsnap-2011-02-10-16h52m53s24.png
Makes me wonder which mind(s) Charles is reading. Eric with that gun, and the whole Kennedy issue...intriguing! I think this will be the X-film most connected with our reality. To see them go through all those historical events, as if mutants are indeed part of the world as we know it, and always have been. Amazing!

I love the dark tones of the cinematography and how the film feels adult and never over the top. First Class is already epic! :woot:

And...

[bosef982]

That argument is deeply flawed.

If SR had led to a sequel, or even a trilogy, then he wouldn't have been free to return to the X-Men franchise.

And they did hire Vaughn back then to step in. It was only when Vaughn backed out that things became frantic.

In fairness to Ratner, his work on X3 seems more confident and capable than Gavin Hood's work on Wolverine. For all the things he could have done better, he successfully made that movie under a huge amount of pressure, with very little pre-production time.

Singer would've returned for X3. That's not even up for dispute. Straight from the horse's mouth, literally.

this movie looks absolutely great. Haters gonna hate. I'll admit that I thought that this movie was going to be stupid, but this trailer sold me. Magneto layin' the smack down.

Didn't have much in the way of expectations for this movie, but that trailer was pretty sick. Definitely have to check this one out.

[BoredGuy]

oh wait, think i figured out part of my problem: the only character here that's ever mildly interested me is Magneto. i guess its good he seems to be the main character.

What I love about some fans is this:

2) "OMG, Singer's just throwing out the continuity of X-Men Origins: Wolverine and X-Men: THe Last Stand!"

[marvelrobbins]

Let's also remember because of the cheapness of Fox Singer was not able to use Beast,Angel,The Danger Room,or the sentinles In his films.He actully had plans of doing Phoenix over 2 films filmed back to back.And It was fox who came up with Idea of both Cyclops and Xavier dying In The Last Stand.And If you watch the DVD there are plenty of Deleted scenes that could have been used to make the film longer.If vaughn would have stayed on It still would have problems but would have been better received.

Vaughn was not being full of himself when he said other superhero frnachises this summer should be concerned with X-men not the other way around.

2) "OMG, Singer's just throwing out the continuity of X-Men Origins: Wolverine and X-Men: THe Last Stand!"

My postion has always been as long as X-Men and X2 remain In contunity for most part(If first class contradicts exactly how Xavier says he and magneto meet In first film or the pressence of human looking beast for brief second on TV IN X2 Is contradicted) than I am fine with pretending Last Stand and Wolverine didn't happen(With both The Wolverine and Deadpool are also doing to Wolverine)

This means we could get Angel In a first class sequel as more than a five minute cameo and Juggernaunt done right.Maybe even Blob In early version on Brotherhood.If there Is a bryan Singer directed post X2 sequel we could even get Gambit

So very little downside to keeping X-Men and X2 and throwing out The Kast Stand and Wolverine.

[bhayes]

okay folks. this is gonna be a good film!

i'm not worried anymore. i'm just confused because why wasn't wolverine this good?

i think this trailer and The wolverine is an apology for orgins. it makes up for everything that went wrong wth orgins.

we will see how it goes. even though Fox has completely ruined the story of the comics, this looks like a good movie.

they have taken what was in the comics and created something else, but what we have got in the first 3 films and Now First Class is very good.

i'm glad singer is back. i just wish he had been involved in orgins, he could have helped the story!!!

we will see how it goes from here.

its gonna be hard because The Wolverine

this is interesting. First Class ignores continuity of Last Stand? or just orgins or both

[protocida]

Fox can't really be blamed for all that. Yes, Tom Rothman did say "no" to the Sentinels because he tough they were silly, but it was Bryan Singer's decision not to use Beast and Angel in X2 as well as cut the Danger Room scene and use the money that'd be spent on it on more important aspects of the movie. Cyclops was killed because James Marsden had scheduling conflicts due to his commitment to Superman Returns. Professor Xavier's death and the deleting of all scenes that were... well.. deleted were all decided by Brett Ratner as well.

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

Why wouldnt they be! It really is a brilliant trailer though, Fox knows how to market movies for the most part, I will always give them that, this one actually looks like it will live up to the trailers though.

[Loganbabe]

the only character here that's ever mildly interested me is Magneto. i guess its good he seems to be the main character.
He's not the main character. Magneto wouldn't have a function in the story without Xavier. So there are at least two main characters. :o

[8Diagrams(WU)]

Im really pleased with Mccavoy as Xavier. Great fit. I wasnt sure with J. Jones for emma frost but boy does she look straight out of the 60's.

I dont really get too much into this whole this movie should look out for that movie. Im just really really excited that we are seeing some really high quality productions of classic pop culture characters for the first time ever. Exciting times to be a comic book fan

[Bunker]

The trailer would have been better if they had more dramatic music playing during JFK's narration. Movie itself looks good, though. Fassbender is going to steal the show.

[Widowmaker]

I am quite happy with what I saw, I feel it's going to be more a character study between Charles and Eric, I like the sixty's vibe, would of like to see some Sebatian Shaw, but loving Emma in what I saw and it fit to what Singer wanted in X3, originally wanted Singorney Weaver to play an older Emma. So this will get my
17.00$ on June. 3

Professor Xavier's death and the deleting of all scenes that were... well.. deleted were all decided by Brett Ratner as well.

But Fox was being cheap ass with the budget.Many sequels to films as successful as X-Men get bigger budgets.Yes Singer dropped Beast from X2 because he didn't want too many Blue characters but a trnasformation to blue during the dark cerebro attack was scripted and dropped for budget reasons.Singer dropped the danger room for budget reasons.Now granted he was able to make up from that for the kitchen scene between him and Iceman and getting the most berzerker rage we got so far(I expect The Wolverine to do even better with this) Singer had to pick his battles with the budget with Fox.Now they had to work around Ian Mckellan and Anna Paquin's schedules why couldn't they do the same with James marsden.Fox made the decsion to kill off Cyclops and Xavier.Ratner Is to blame for the cutting of deleted scenes and the script leak from when vaughn was attached had some decent things despite the killing off of major charaters.
Plus from the Last Stand commantary It IS clear Ratner Is an ass.

I'll still watch the movie but i have a feeling its gonna bomb.

[mclay18]

I don't know if I'm the only one, but there's something about the trailer that rubs me the wrong way. Maybe it's the way the trailer's cut, but oddly it's not quelling any doubts I have about the film. Make no mistake, Vaughn has a great eye for visuals and look-wise, it fits with the first three X-Men films' continuity.

But the best thing about it: it looks 100x better than the godawful Origins: Wolverine.

[Figs]

[Lone]

The trailer was a pleasant surprise. It feels refreshing for some reason. Never doubted that Fassbender was gonna be awesome in this but from what little I've seen, he's gonna own this role.

[Downhere]

Wow, finally caught this. Trailer is totally amazing, I have faith that this will be a fantastic movie and give all other superhero films this year a run for their money. I knew Vaughn would deliver.

One thing I don't understand is why some are saying the effects look poorly, I think they look great for a film that has only been worked on for several months and I have faith that the final version of the film will look polished and seamless in the effects department.

Finally, an X-Men film to look forward to!

[roach]

Superman Returns had a kickass trailer too

[marvelrobbins]

All the X-Men films do well.X-Men the Last Stand IS the most film In the series despite the mixed reaction Fnas,Critics,and general audences had.Wolverine despite the fact It leaked online did good business outgross the first X-men and It was least popular film In the series.The trailer IS being well received for First Class.Even on the Superhero Hype homepage there are postive reactions to it.This returns to what X-Men and X2 were.Character driven scifi fantasy drama with action In It not films that are all about action and lacking on characters.

[ohmshalone]

Hi guys, I'm not a regular on the X-men boards (DC comics fan, y'see ;)), but I just thought I'd mention how impressed I was with the trailer. Hopefully, as a casual outsider, my opinion may mean more to you than the fanboys on this board.

I think this definitely looked better than even Singer's X-Men (the shot of beast in the plane was especially impressive), although based on what Singer had at his disposal, I suppose he can't be looked down upon at all.

We now have a fourth, REAL superhero offering this year. Any doubts I had about this movie (esp. about it's low budget) have now withered away. :)

[Thundercrack85]

I still would have preferred a "real" reboot, but I must say, the trailer is quite impressive. It doesn't have that mindless popcorn action movie vibe that Wolverine had.

But it's only a trailer, and those can be deceptive, so I will remain cautiously optimistic.

[Lone]

Superman Returns had a kickass trailer too

So did a bunch of other movies that turned out great. Gotta have faith.

Anyway, if the movie ends up sucking, you know we'll all be back here to ***** about it.:awesome:

[green]

Trailer looks great. I'm excited.

[ohmshalone]

Superman Returns had a kickass trailer too

While I'm very optimistic about this movie based on its trailer, as a guy who anticipated Superman Returns before it came out, this quote is very sad, but very true.

[Theweepeople]

The trailer looks pretty darn good. The cgi looked good, the storyline looks interesting, and the pacing seemed perfect. This is the first time in 4.5 years that I've been interested in seeing an X-Men sequel, prequel, or spin-off. Now comes the waiting game for confirmation of the run time. Hopefully, I won't hear rumors of the run time being less than 2 hours and then witness Arclight theater in Los Angeles lie about another X-Men film running time for the umpteenth time.

[steintym]

Well ... unfortunately the trailer really didn't change my outlook for this movie. Most of the stuff I had already seen didn't really blow me away, but nothing really bothered me either. Basically ... meh.

I still kind of have the same feeling after seeing the trailer. There was some cool stuff, but nothing that really blew me away.

In the end, I think I'm going to be disappointed most of the big names (besides Prof X and Magneto) are not in this.

Being an X-men fan, I'll still be there opening night, though.

[Darkness Falls]

i liked the music, it reminded me of the music in the wolfman trailer :D

[Thundercrack85]

To be fair, Magneto alone could easily hold a movie by himself.

And in the other movies, the X-Men always played second fiddle to Wolverine. Most were little more than glorified cameos (some characters didn't even have lines).

[Loganbabe]

Well, he could. But that's not the case in First Class.

[MessiahDecoy123]

What I dig about the trailer is the way the scenes peak my interest. Unlike other recent trailers this one really draws me in. I want so badly to learn the context of these scenes and how they play out.

This is by far my most anticipated comic book movie of 2011. Thank you Vaughn!

[Piz]

Seems not having a TV spot during the Super Bowl isn't a big deal.
Yeah, and it makes sense since it seems CA fits to the Super Bowl's demograph more than the X-Men.

I really liked the trailer

[The Wizard]

I wonder if the island featured in the air/sea battle is the same the film's finale takes place on.

[gregtestagent]

I saw the trailer and i looked it upon imdb. Why is Bryan Singer still involved? shouldn't he be excluded as punishment for leaving the franchise to go copy richard donner's superman?

[Cagefighterkip]

This looks effortlessly cool and fresh. That's thanks in no small part to Fassbender & Matthew Vaughn's direction. Hope the rest of the movie can keep up.

Why weren't you sure with January Jones? She IS best-known for Mad Men, which is a 60's period piece renowned for its authenticity. :funny:

To be fair, Magneto alone could easily hold a movie by himself.
Michael Fassbender = yes please. :awesome:

[Yurka]

Upon another viewing I've noticed a few more things about Magneto that are even more badass, one he's holding a gun when he's with the group watching the TV, and two, when he used his powers to take that knife away from that guy, he's pulling it out of his stomach.

- He makes a guy stab himself
- He has a gun
- He pulls a knife out of a guys stomach
- He lifts a damn sub out of the ocean
- "Peace was never an option"


This sounds like the best Magneto yet and I can not wait to see it.

The trailer was decent enough, but not as mind-blowing on the first viewing as I had expected, which in retrospect could be a good thing. The XM:TLS trailer had everyone changing pants, and we know what happened there. It feels subtler somehow this time, and doesn't bombard us with money shot after money shot to repeatedly hammer home the epicness of it all. With the collective talent behind XM:FC, I doubt it needs to.

couldn't agree more. i personally found this trailer to be rather...boring. only towards the end is there some mischief and even then i couldn't get past the poor cgi and unexciting action scenes. Considering that this movie will be going against more entertainingr action packed and story driven movies like thor i see this movie being the least successful of the x-men franchise.

It might be the least successful but certainly wont be the worst at least!

[Great Mind(s)]

Thor. blah

[co2]

This (along with, hopefully, The Wolverine) looks like it'll be giving the X-Men their cajones back.

I hope you are right. This looks a lot more complex than the last 2 X-movies turned out to be. And I think The Wolverine has a shot at being one of the better Marvel movies, period.

[Great Mind(s)]

Magneto was so badass in X2. He pulled the blood out of a person! He then changed Cerebro around to target every human, then he was all "peace Charles"

[illest urban]

So ummm... who's the brotha driving the car in one of the trailer scenes?

The only way Thor stands a chance against First Class is because it will be in Imax 3D, if it werent for that, I believe first class would smash it. I think it looks the weakest out of all the hyped summer films we're getting. I dont think First Class will do poorly by any means, critical or financial.

[GREEN =w= DAY]

The trailer was decent enough, but not as mind-blowing on the first viewing as I had expected, which in retrospect could be a good thing. The XM:TLS trailer had everyone changing pants, and we know what happened there. It feels subtler somehow this time, and doesn't bombard us with money shot after money shot to repeatedly hammer home the epicness of it all. With the collective talent behind XM:FC, I doubt it needs to.

Can't wait.

X3 was all action and effect, but lacked depth. it had a mediocre story and no intriguing new characters. in that sense, it did not offer a chance to better know the characters.

something about First Class that it seems that it will offer it. this movie seems more to be character and story driven rather than just non stop action and fast paced story telling like X3.

in a way, it's a good thing they haven't released a whole lot of info regarding this movie. sometimes less is more in the end :word:

[Hurm...]

I love the part when Magneto confronts an enemy, does rock, paper, scissors and owns him.

[MessiahDecoy123]

Judging from the trailer this movie will compliment Singer's X-men flicks rather well.

IDK Why everyone is acting like they know everything just from the damn trailer. Let the movie come out first before you start saying what is right and what is wrong. Geez.

[Ipodman]

Wow it looks amazing!!! I got goosebumps when Azazel went all teleporting!!

[ladymidnight]

Then you should know that Fox treated Singer like a piece of **** on the first 2 movies, giving him budgets that even at the time were that big, and then they dithered with the X3 contract relentlessly also.

WB come along, give him a $200 million dollar budget and all the freedom in the world and you blame him for leaving? Not to mention he said he'd happily do X3 after SR?

Sorry, but Singer has and always will be blameless to me in that situation. It showed Fox's incompetence at the time they couldnt even get a half decent director to take over.


yes, they gave him a 200 million dollar budget and creative freedom and look at the crap he produced with "superman returns". thank god fox kept him on a tight leash.

[psyonic]

Emma's diamond form looks smooth like she is made of glass .. very cool! But it seems like her clothes become diamond as well? Not sure how I feel about that ..

[Yurka]

Here ya go, if you want a specific screencap just ask me.


Awesome caps :up:

You mind making one of Magneto with his back to the camera in the costume? Ive waiting to have a nice huge HD cap of that for my wallpaper. :awesome:

[conan69]

"yes, they gave him a 200 million dollar budget and creative freedom and look at the crap he produced with "superman returns". thank god fox kept him on a tight leash."

1. Fox really kept on him for the first film, including forcing him to cut, I believe about a half hour from its running time.
2. He had more creative freedom for the second film and look at the result.
3. At least Singer understood that the Dark Phoenix storyline should focus on Cyclops.

Singer simply wasnt a great fit for Superman. I understand his love for the original but Singer works best with darker issues, themes and characters, which doesnt fit the theme of the Superman character.

BTW, I enjoyed Superman Returns for what it was. People love to crap on that movie, but IMHO its still better than most comic books films. I can easily name 20 that are worse.

[ladymidnight]

The teaser trailer didn't impress me at all, I just didn't feel anything in it making me excited for the film and the CGI looked very poor.

THANKYOU.i thought i was the only one. i don't see why people suddenly think this movie is going to be good just because they showed scenes in slow motion and used some dead senators speech.

[psyonic]

Why does Magneto's helmet look red on his head(from behind) but silver in his hands(in front)?

Whats that room supposed to be anyway? Some kind of mutant prison?

It probably went through a badass makeover, along with the rest of his wardrobe.

I think it's the interrogation room for the CIA.

What's going on here??? Topless auditions to get in to school? That a strip club??

[Yurka]

Its definitely a strip club, in the previous shot where you see her from the front you can see the atmosphere behind her. Strippers in an X-men movie, Nice!

[Loganbabe]

Um...I hope you're joking with this post.

Xavier was simply turning his head in that shot and Erik's holding what looks like a remote or something.

:dry:
Joking how? :huh:
I guess you came here with nothing interesting to say and just decided to jump on my post for the sake of it? Because it's quite obvious I wasn't joking. :o
Now, pay close attention to the images before saying silly things like "Magneto is holding a remote" when is clear, painfully clear that he's holding a gun. :whatever:

[Ipodman]

Strange they didn't use "From the director of Kick-Ass"

[8Diagrams(WU)]

Granted, most of that's not individual fans being clueless and hypocritical. That's fans disagreeing with each other. :oldrazz:


Why weren't you sure with January Jones? She IS best-known for Mad Men, which is a 60's period piece renowned for its authenticity. :funny:


Michael Fassbender = yes please. :awesome:

When I think of Emma I think of someone like how Dodson draws her in the Xmen books. I didnt know that this movie had a major nod to the 60's xmen origin. I dont know January Jones for anything other than an appearance in SNL and a mag i have in the bathroom. Never watch tv. sorry.

[Binker]

What was the music used in the trailer?

[DACrowe]

lol. I actually really liked Kick-ass.

[Sebastos]

You and me both.

[Spider-Fan]

The trailer was okay. Not terrible, but not amazing. I can tell it is a prequel and people have powers and do cool things. The guy playing Magneto seemed off to me, though.

But, trailers for this series have been consistantly strong. Execution is more what I care about.

[Yurka]

Just noticed something, that part where Magneto pulls the knife out of the guys stomach, appears to be in reverse. If someone who knows how could reverse that clip, that would be fabulous.

[Jager X]

Maybe it is my lack of following, but the characters involved in this film makes no sense to me. The teaser was meh, but what really kept grabbing my attention were the continuity of this franchise. For example, was Emma Frost not a teenager in the Wolverine film - which supposed to take place AFTER this film? Also, why is Beast blue when in one of the first to films he was seen on television as a human?

I don't really know about this movie. I would have much rathered they did a full on reboot.

[ladymidnight]

he had SLIGHT creative freedoom in x2 but was still heavily restricted from most of his plans. thankgod for that. the sentinels looked terrible when they finally made there appearance and the dangeroom was not very impressive either. superman returns is an example of the crap he can produce when hes not properly controlled.

[Spider-Fan]

Superman Returns was crap, but I had issues with Signer's X-Men myself

[Happy Jack]

Very strong trailer, gives me enthusiasm for the project. I've always loved the dynamic between Magneto and Xavier.

The only thing that irked me in the trailer was the quick shot of Beast. It looked like some poor CG.

Both of these things were not under Singer's direction. The Danger Room, while it looked similar, functioned completely different and the so-called Sentinel was just a head...so yeah. You're done.

[Snikt]

This is the last time I'll post in this thread until after I've seen the movie :D...I'll keep myself restricted to The Wolverine thread.

Trailer looks great. It definitely left me wanting to see more; which is a good thing (watching X1 right now to satisfy my craving). Not a big fan of Cat Beast, but it could just be the angle of the shot; which is VERY brief.

I'm not going to allow myself to be spoiled this time like I did with X3 five years ago (good God has it been that long?).

See you after June 3 True Believers :D

[Hellion]

I think you mean the X3 versions while the other poster means the concept version planned for Singer's films...

[Hellion]

What's going on here??? Topless auditions to get in to school? That a strip club??

Hellfire Club at times in the comics has been shown to be a ahem, Gentlemen's Club, maybe Angel's one of the mutant strippers???

[PSYLENTGuardian]

What was the music used in the trailer?

I'm curious about that myself.
Anyone?
