Days of Future Past Official X-Men: Days of Future Past Images Thread

[Morti]

I'm kind of surprised Toad didn't get an actual photoshoot...for some reason I assumed that he would join up with Mystique and assist in the assassination of whoever...so basically, I was expecting to see him in the climax of the film....I wonder if that's any less likely now.

 

[psyonic]

These headshots are so bad, what kind of marketing is this? This is like a crappier version of the Empire covers, except dragged out over weeks instead of hours.

 

[xrs13]

You said all minor characters are just Empire covers. Right now, its just Toad & Havok. The covers for Other minor characters like Colossus, Warpath and Blink are different to their headshot pic.

Its obvious that Toad&Havok weren't included in photoshoots.

I think toad and havok have an even smaller role than the others seeing as they don't feature on the website

Do people actually think that because they don't like the headshots, that means that Fox is doing a bad job of marketing and people won't go see the movie?

Because, if that's actually the line of thinking, some people need to give their heads a huge shake. I have never once, ever, heard someone say they weren't going to see a movie because the promo pictures were "bad." That's just dumb, plain and simple.

No they are doing a bad job because no one knows the movie is coming out but the comic books fans like us.

Besides there would have to be marketing to insult it, which there isn't-- just an intern a free trial version of photoshop elements.

Oi vey. Fox pays its marketing team a lot of money to market movies. Just because it doesn't live up to your standards, doesn't mean they're doing a bad job.

For the record, everyone complains about the marketing for every movie. Your complaints aren't warranted.

You think FOX is paying someone a lot of money to make those terrible headshots and run their social media accounts? Cause that's all the promotion has been since October.

The trailer we got was the exact same one from comicon, shown 5 months earlier.

The marketing on this movie is a *****ing joke. I feel sorry for Bryan Singer, I hope this movie does well-- he needs a hit.

 

[Feenix]

Well maybe you should be part of the marketing team! You're criticizing the hell out of them, so show them how it's done, eh?

Give me a break. People complained until they were blue in the face about Thor: The Dark World's marketing and it made $650 million worldwide.

Again, your complaints aren't warranted.

 

[Angamb]

I dont get why when someone doesnt agree with what Fox is doing, there is a big problem on the board.

Do we have to be 100% happy with ALL what Fox does or what?

Considering I work in marketing for a living, I would gladly take that opportunity.

 

[Melapi]

EDIT: What a mess. I was trying to post in the main thread.LOL

 

[Mulholland-Jr]

Blink's color seems to be inconsistent in the promo material.

 

[XMenDOFPBrazil]

Famke Janssen (Jean Grey) mutant franchise back!

I hope Bryan brings her or his young version for the cinema again!

We can not do without Jean Grey, it is essential.

 

[Duran Man]

Nice.

 

[Angamb]

Id wish Blinks skin would be a more intense pink. Closer to how Mystique and Kurt were addapted.

That way it would have been more cohesive and she would stand out even more yet

 

[DOFP]

Agree^^ I was looking forward to it and I was 100% Bryan was gonna go for it! he did a fantastic job on Mystique and Nightcrawler.

 

[Angamb]

honestly, I was dissapointed when I saw the teaser trailer, the look wasnt as badass as I expected.

the comic version is 10 times more badass and unique, and has a more aggresive look. Fan looks like a good girl with that cute long braid.

The skin was important, imo. and the hair, as beautiful as it is, it doesnt make her badass either

 

[psylockolussus]

Why the wrong background for Havok? It's like they couldn't wait to make the already awful picture worse.

There's actually two versions of Havok's picture. One with the blue-ish background and the one with the red-dish background.

I think toad and havok have an even smaller role than the others seeing as they don't feature on the website

Yeah but you said "minor characters" and in my opinion, some characters that are featured in the official site will be minor characters in the movie like Colossus.

 

[psylockolussus]

No they are doing a bad job because no one knows the movie is coming out but the comic books fans like us.

You should check websites dedicated to movie posters. If you think these headshots are bad, just wait until you see the response of the internet people to the posters of the other movies out there.

I dont get why when someone doesnt agree with what Fox is doing, there is a big problem on the board.

Because more disagreement bout what Fox is doing is what we need in this board? eh?

 

[JohnGrey]

So if Rogue doesn't get an image then she is officially out IMO. Havok, toad, and her are not the website or listed in the cast, yet they get these headshots so I'm expecting her to get one.

 

[psylockolussus]

if Rogue doesn't get an image then she is officially out IMO.

Not really, it could be just a sign.

 

[JohnGrey]

A sign of her not being in the movie anymore, yes I agree.

 

[lastairbender]

I'm reading the House of M..it would make a great movie...Toad looks like this movie version

 

[Rockteur]

Another *****ty pic to add to the ***** pile.
