That is so ugly. Reminds me of Arnold Schwarzenegger in Batman & Robin.

If X-Men: Apocalypse only featured the cast of First Class and managed to outgross its predecessors? Sure, Fox could finally move on with them and not worry about getting more money with the OT cast.

I would keep the existing FC cast but but it's vital for fox to include the young versions of fan favorites such as cyke, jean and storm. |

Yep agreed 100%. Set Apoc in the mid 80s bring in those 3 in their early 20s and I think it works out perfectly. Hell even make McAvoy and Fassbender look a little older with cgi or make up just so they really look like the elders of the group.

Michael only needs to look approximately 41 years old by 1983 for them to be consistent with his ageing pattern. His hair could start graying out.

Step II: Create weapon that can successfully defeat mutants (Sentinels) Step III: With the mutants neutralized, turn the weapon against humans How does that not work out for Apocalypse? Last edited by Naji Assan; 12-09-2013 at 11:50 PM. |

Oh I agree with you. But it's still ugly as f***.

Most people won't see a X-Men film just because it has Michael Fassbender and Jennifer Lawrence.

Yeah the two pics are identical. Dinklage's head was scaled to proper size, but they're still literally the same. Glad you found a pic so identical to compare it to considering that Dinklage's head could only work on a midget's body and scaling it to fit a symmetrical body would be hilarious.

Not that I don't enjoy the OT cast or respect their works but those names aren't as big of headlines as they were 10 years ago when X3 came out. Of course this is all just blatant speculation of what I personally see the smartest route is on top of what I would like to see as well.

Why do you think the OT cast is suddenly back? Of course they were brought back NOT ONLY for story purposes but to draw back audiences that watched the original trilogy film which were really successful back in the day and more successful than the 2011 X-Men film. And again, people just don't watch X-Men movies because of hot and upcoming stars. The entire OT cast could be a bunch of washed-up actors in 2016, but FOX would still ask them to return because they already have been a big part of the series and doing a film without them would just feel incomplete and could just lead to smaller box-office revenue. When people see the OT cast, they automatically think X-Men. But when people see the FC cast? Some of them will think of Hunger Games because of Jennifer Lawrence. The Ot cast is more iconic to the X-Men characters that they are portraying than the FC cast. Of course someday, the OT cast will have move on when they are all old. I surely don't want to see a 70 something Storm and Rogue fighting against Mr. Sinister. But right now, they all look good and there's still excitement to see more from them. There's no need to replace them and sideline them with prequel characters who couldn't even outgross a 11-year old film, X1.

I respectfully disagree, you bring up good points as well but I really have no rebuttals argument. Did FC outgross X1 is my only question since I have no actual idea. I just think you stick what you have currently while bringing in the OT cast here for both story and perhaps a bit of financial return as well then close out the OT story with a happy ending and use this film with the aid of the OT to secure the FC guys going forward if that makes any sense.

Out of the OT cast, Paquin, Ashmore and Page are still young enough that they still can continue playing the roles for a longer time than the older cast members.

But there is strength in casting a younger Cyclops, Jean, and Storm and adding them to the existing FC roster. True, the OT cast made a lot of money for FOX. But imagine (for example) what a Zoe Saldana (or another big young name equivalent) could do box officewise in the role of someone like Storm? There are infinite possibilities with either route.

If you don't have the core X-Men members (Xavier, Logan, Storm, Cyclops and Jean) it's simply not "X-Men" to most people. Sure, others like Beast, Nightcrawler and Gambit can step in but they excel best when combined with the personalities of the core four (or five if you keep Xavier in the mix). If they are going to move forward with the FC cast, they MUST have Wolverine, Storm, Cyclops and Jean front and center. Otherwise you'll have another underperformer like FC...with mutants no one gives a damn about.
