Apparently even at free screenings of C:SW it wasn't even full in some theaters I hope that this isn't a sign of oversaturation of the market.

 

[Smilodon]

That's kinda cool how we have no description though. Makes the actual third trailer that much more exciting. Plus, Cinemacon is for theater owners. Not surprised there aren't some people jotting down everything they see and it's just writers tweeting big points.

 

[jaymes_e06]

I think the most important take away is everything we are seeing is positive.

No. Not the case at all, big cities had multiple screenings and you had to know of the link and sign up for the screener to get the email confirming you got it. Most people were not privy to this info. So small states that don't usually do such a thing likely have less people looking for them.

There was only one screening here in ohio a small theater near cincinnati. I drove an hour and a half to go. The theater room itself was a decent sized. And packed.

Danoyse also explained in her NYC viewing she thought they opened up another theater.

I know my line was going out the door

I heard from several they were surprised that it wasn’t filled to capacity. At such a limited engagement for free you wouldn't think there would be any empty seats. I had no idea it was even happening or id have been there my damn self!

Haha wow, you're not really comparing Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique to two voice actors? You can't tell me the marketing wouldn't have focused on Bradley Cooper if he was playing Star Lord. And Vin Diesel isn't even a selling point. Every movie he has been in has bombed, outside of the Fast & Furious movies.

Well good thing the filmmakers from GOTG didn't shoehorn either Rocket or Groot as StarLord's adoptive sister(!)

Hi

Had that happened, maybe either one would've eventually led the team in the next sequel.

Nicholas hoult should feel privileged then i guess.

If having insignificant character arcs over two movies that never get resolved and having your character be a FOIL to other main characters' arcs:

Mystique's "We shouldn't have to hide/And Beast! Mutant & Proud." in FC;

Xavier's: "Shut her down Charles. Get into her head." in DOFP

then I guess Nicholas Hoult is very, very, very privileged.

Sounds like they're keeping a lot hidden from the trailers actually...which for theatre viewings is refreshing.

Hanks arc was only not resolved because they chose for it not to be, keep him blue and have him be depressed? Or just turn him human again so there was something to resolve at the end, well just not at the end of DOFP though.

In the end it's no different.

Sounds like a lot of action, hopefully it's not DOFP type action where it's all the action

Come on Fox, damn!

 

[Tilapia]

Civil War is completely stealing the spotlight. Eventually Fox will have to step it up, but CW will be a Juggernaught.

 

[Scarlet Spider]

Am I the only one that doesn't want another trailer? The movie comes out in six weeks. Between the two trailers (with the last one less than a month old) and the SB spot, I've seen enough. Especially this close to release.

Also, I really hope they don't spoil Wolverine's appearance. It's bad enough they've already shown the final X-Men suits (which should have been saved for the film). Don't blow Logan's appearance as well.

 

[xrs13]

I actually thought it might be a Phoenix appearance or a wolverine in costume appearance.

 

[YoungBlood]

At least this is not like Star Trek Beyond where one trailer has been shown since last year (and their reception was way worse) and people heard nothing else from it besides some behind the scenes trouble. They didn't even do a Superbowl trailer.

Its their time for the spotlight though. They aren't stealing it. X-Men's time to shine wont be until May.

"Whatever it is you think you saw in me, I buried it with my family."

Quote from the new trailer?

Exactly CW will have its moment as well as Apocalypse having its moment when it's closer to being released. I do want that next trailer though I'm hoping the big reveal is either The Pheonix bird showing or seeing the new costumes in action now those will have people talking more so.

 

[GuestStar2004]

Yes

 

[GuestStar2004]

What i think this trailer will have and yes many will complain about is they will probably show raven being a kinda tough magneto style leading figure, getting the youngers ready for battle or leading them into battle with speeches, which is probably something that is happening either way so not showing it in the trailer would just be hiding it.

There are arguments to made for why its not a big deal, its only a big deal you make it a big deal, the characters are obvious in their own places in this movie.

 

[kevork89]

I love that line. It's quite obvious Magneto's family is killed. I had a feeling that will happen. I wouldn't even be surprised if Apocalypse makes it that way to manipulate Magneto into joining his cause.

 

[JP]

Well, this is amazing. LOL

 

[xrs13]

Hahaha that is brilliant !

 

[Leo Zelinsky]

The X-Men can be so much fun at home just being around each other I've been saying that over and over. Enough brooding

 

[GuestStar2004]

that is great! lol
