And people still made an outcry about Rogue that created a bad buzz for the movie, funny huh?
Not really. The hardcore fans would have went ape **** if it was Cyclops, Storm, Jean Grey or Gambit getting the cut . Rogue is one of the most popular characters. People want to see her done justice and get more screen time and action, not get cut and be teased of an apperance. Of course thats gonna piss off hardcore Rogue fans, but that will not impact the films box office at all.
Not saying this is everyone but there are people on here who don't read comics, or were introduced to films first. They are Rogue fans cause of Anna's performance.
When did I say I want the focus to be entirely in the OT cast?
Why were you replying to my early posts that were specifically on the subject then? That's why I posted that's hardly the point the last page. You always replied sarcastically like you were disagreeing and yet seemed to be missing the general idea I was debating or just choosing to ignore it. It wasn't about having two Magnetos in DOFP, or DOFP's FC roster compared to the Future one. Your picking bits and pieces then switching it about something else.
My initial post was a reply to Psylockolussus about having an all focused OT cast in 2018, and why that would not be such a good idea switching the main focus that late. And that if they wanted an OT only focused film they should A. release it right after DOFP or B. Make sure they have decent roles in Apocalypse to keep them relevant. Everything I said was based around that. I repeat, Im not bashing them returning. Otherwise I wouldn't be too happy right now with DOFP. I'm saying returning late is bad when DOFP is their window. DOFP is the return that people will be excited for. After that it's gone. It will not have the same effect later.
If they are gone for too long without being the focus and then all of a sudden take center stage after new leads are introduced I just don't see that working. Either for FC or the OT's benefit. Lets introduce and cast new lead characters for audiences to like just to go back to the same old ones, even though we could have done that instead from the get go. It looks like bad/confused planning to me. Not every film will be DOFP with old and new versions running around, nor should it be.
