I think Blink's power was just so cool it was hard not to like. The Blink power usage was among the most creative power usage we've ever seen in X-Men. It will be hard to top.

Just imagine, no more having to pay for flights.


I hope Psylocke has more dialogue than Blink (and by more, I mean any).

 

[psylockolussus]

Well Olivia Munn had 1 line in the Horsemen featurette, so fingers cross!

 

[TheNewSlayer]

Oh the Blink of the film! C'mon, yeah her powers looked cool but she could have been replaced by more familiar characters like Nightcrawler and Angel, you know characters that were in X2/X3.

Anyway, personally I hope Psylocke is own character, like someone I haven't seen before in a X-Men movie!

I have high hopes for Psylocke and Jean in this movie. I'd love to see a telepathic battle.

The Psylocke in X-Men Last Stand was just to horrible. So terrible that Bryan is hoping for us to forget that she was in X3 and technically shouldn't be in this movie.

Like Angel and Jubilee shouldn't also be here cause Angel was in X3 and Jubilee in X1 and X2.

Fan Bing Bing isn't fluent in English so I'm guessing it didn't help with getting her lines. They could've had her speak Chinese and another character translate but that would take up crucial set up minutes.

Either way it was her battling to the very end and to her death that made her standout... Considering she could've portaled the hell out of there to save her own ass.

 

[Frankeh]

Don't put your hopes up for a telepathic battle between Psylocke and Jean. Munn already said Psylocke isn't using her telepathy in this movie.

My feeling is that singer isn't trying to crap on the X3 version of angel and thats why this version is a totally different version of angel

Yeah but that could be said for any of them.

Blink was amazing in DOFP her powers looked awesome and it incorporated teamwork which I loved. I don't think they could've just replaced Blink with any teleporter because she was used for more than that. She really utilized her powers creatively to get the upper hands in those battles to keep them going longer. A normal teleport couldn't just do what Blink did let's not downplay her now (not you Takato)because she truly was amazing.

Oh not yet, I heard Thursday but they might release the trailer first before the convention tomorrow.

And I just love how Psylocke is more prominent than Storm/Jean/Nightcrawler/Cyclops in the poster!

Ohk I thought I had missed something lol. Bring on the next trailer.

Well, her telepathy is used on her dagger that stun people. Maybe Munn doesn't know what she's talking about it.

I know that they'll probably not explore Psylocke telepathic powers cause of Jean and Xavier. But I'd be pretty disappointed if they don't even mention that she is capable of that.

Psylocke is a great telepathic and her telepathic powers are being used constantly in the comics now that Xavier is dead, Jean is dead, Emma is missing, Rachel is missing and Cable have limited telepathy nowadays.

 

[Superhero 101]

Best poster yet

I believe that they've said that Psylocke won't show her telepath powers, just telekinesis but won't rule out she has those powers as well

 

[CaptainCanada]

She has two difference such weapons in the comics: the psychic knife, which is telepathic, and the telekinetic energy katana. Movie Psylocke appears to just have the latter.

They could develop her powers more in a future movie, if they wanted to.

 

[kineticist]

The last two trailers were posted at 9am EST so hopefully this one will follow suit tomorrow!!

Take a look to that poster which have Apocalypse and his horseman.

In that poster Psylocke's pic have her with the psychic knife. I think she might display both telepathy and telekinesis in this movie the way you said, through her " psychic knife, which is telepathic, and the telekinetic energy katana"

 

[DACrowe]

Very much agreed. It is the first poster that looks formidable. However, I did like the cutout fans were using the last few months, as well.

 

[xmanzo]

 

[kasjan]

This is better than poster.
At poster Magneto being behind Psylocke, is too big.

 

[usagicassidy]

Wait a second - that new poster...it says IMAX. Are we actually getting an IMAX release? Or are we still not getting IMAX in the US?

...they've already said she doesn't display her telepathy in this movie. Both of her weapons are created or enhanced through her telekinetic powers.

Nope, IMAX is only for overseas.

Saw the imax trailer during BVS it was really good......

 

[Mad Ones]

Love those gif posters.

"they" who? The actors barely know anything about the comics. They might be wrong. If she uses her knife then is telepathic not telekinetic.

 

[Mad Ones]

Uh Munn is a big comic book fan and said Psylocke doesn't use telepathy.

“Psylocke is telepathic and telekinetic. In the movie, we see her being a telekinetic. We don't see her being telepathic,” Munn explained “

Fans are not telling you no because they don't wanna see her be telepathic. Munn said that because she knows we all want to see her be one and it's important to the character, but she is not shown as one in the film. There's no point in her lying. She's not bringing false hope or misdirection for this particular film. This is to clear up that they are essentially ignoring this in Apocalypse and it will be up to later films to include that power set.

Every other trailer this week was released same day as presentation. Some even before the presentation even started. Fingers crossed for tomorrow morning.
