so you dont think they are gonna age him up by present times comes around

 

[Megaton Sun]

fassbender's 33. Kravitz is 22.

but that doesn't mean they're playing characters that are 33 and 22.

 

[JP]

Zoe could easily pass for 16 or so.

 

[The Original Bamfer]

No telepathy, No hotness, Native American ancestry... ya, totally a random mutant.

No telepathy was mentioned, doesn't mean she didn't have it. And there was no mention of Native American ancestry. Kayla didn't physically appear to have much-if-any Native American heritage. Sure, she told her little story, but that doesn't mean she was Native American. Emma certainly didn't look it.

I've only seen that leaked version of Wolverine so can you refresh my memory of where her telepathy was mentioned? Cuz why would Xavier 'talk' to Cyclops and not Kayla's sister?

thats why I said ancestry cuz if anything they were definitely diluted.

So... what's going on here?!!? According to this: http://www.deadline.com/2010/08/january-jones-heads-x-men-first-class-mutant-roster/ Angel is a Black chick and Beast is now a British weakling..? I thought this film was supposed to be based on the comic books more closely... why am I not seeing a nerd uproar that they are turning Angel into a chick..? do we just not care anymore..? is there a boycott planned..? I feel out of the loop..

 

[MadVillainy]

There is a girl character whose name is actually Angel

I agreed with you by saying "no telepathy was mentioned". Had I disagreed, I would have said "no, telepathy was mentioned". See the difference? But just because it wasn't mentioned doesn't mean it wasn't there.

Well, I personally have boycotted Fox ever since Last Stand. I have yet to pay to see a Fox movie or buy a Fox dvd. I know it doesnt even make a dent but I have my standards.

on a sidenote I did enjoy A-Team and Predators. I hope they finally learned their lesson.

[Megaton Sun]

You should know by now with these X-Men movies that if something is not mentioned then its not canon.

btw, did you think that purple haired Asian chameleon chick in X3 was Psylocke?

 

[Specter313]

yes RCG this is Angel Salvadore aka Temptest

Just a note, that's her after she was depowered and given artificial powers in her run as Tempest on New Warriors. This will likely be the look she has for the film:

 

[The Original Bamfer]

Anyone find it funny that she's rumored to play a character, Angel, who's other codename is Tempest, which is synonymous with the word "storm"?

 

[JP]

Anyone find it funny that she's rumored to play a character, Angel, who's other codename is Tempest, which is synonymous with the word "storm"?

Kinda like how "Howler" was actually Banshee, and "Willow", a shape shifter, was actually Mystique.


CONSPIRAZEEBAZOOBOBS!!

 

[Megaton Sun]

Yea i really think this is some misdirection. Why would they have such an unknown mutant over Storm?

 

[Project862006]

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/tempest

you are correct lol

 

[Megaton Sun]

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/tempest

you are correct lol

lol you had to look that up?

 

[Project862006]

sure did lol

 

[The Original Bamfer]

Kinda like how "Howler" was actually Banshee, and "Willow", a shape shifter, was actually Mystique.


CONSPIRAZEEBAZOOBOBS!!

Bahaha.

And how Lucas Till's playing Havok, and, uh, he's Cyclops' brother, and, well, the Come-Up-With-Related-But-Hopefully-Misguiding-Names guys at Fox got tired or just neglected the second half of their job title and decided to misguide us by saying his character was actually, literally related to the real character Till will be playing. Right? Yeah.

 

[Project862006]

banshee is the only character that i believe lol

 

[Megaton Sun]

yup. so that means Scott, Jean and Storm have been cast this whole time right under our noses.

 

[JP]

banshee is the only character that i believe lol

LOL, does it have anything to do with the fact that Jones is super ginger?

 

[Lightning Strykez!]

Anyone find it funny that she's rumored to play a character, Angel, who's other codename is Tempest, which is synonymous with the word "storm"?

If they cast that girl as Storm I swear I will throw up a bit in my mouth. She is even lighter-complexioned than Halle. And shorter. Can you see her with that pale skin AND a white wig???? I will be pissed beyond typing.

In fact, Bamf, you will have to take over modding this forum again because I will have to disconnect myself from the film's production completely.

 

[The Original Bamfer]

Well, well, well... I believe Kravitz will be Storm, Till will may very well be Cyclops, but as for Jean? Not too sure.
