Apocalypse X-Men Apocalypse News and Discussion - - - - - - - - - - - - Part 40

[Raiden]

Well, it'd be more exciting than the s*** we're getting now.

I think they should do the Brood story line, but Singer doesn't do aliens or outer space.

 

[Tymminator]

What are some X-men you guys would like to see in future X-Films?

I would like to see Sunfire, Majik, Polaris, Siryn (say Banshee had her before he was killed) and Thunderbird (even if he died).

I don't expect these characters at all, just saying characters I would like to see.

 

[psyonic]

They really should have done Sinister/Marauders/Morlocks/Mutant Massacre in the 80s following DoFP and have it exactly like the comics. Apocalypse recruited Plague (Pestilence) from the Morlocks and Angel's wings were damaged by a Marauder. Apocalypse could have been working in the shadows leading to a more fleshed out Apocalypse story in the next movie. Oh well.. >.>

Haven't seen the film yet but I agree this approach would've been welcomed.

I think post Apocalypse and Days of Future Past. Bryan has been more and more willing to step out of his comfort zone. Especially indicated by his willingness to adapt the Dark Phoenix saga. But at the same time, it was a very slow burn and at times he feels like he is retreading old sense. On one hand it make sense that First Class is the conclusion of the First Class trilogy and the 6 X-Men films while leading way to new sequels with the birth of the X-Men.


But I can see the complaints, maybe he should take a more background role as producer and advisor of the X-Men films, but I think he is just going around in circles in term of directing X-Men films, retreading some of the same things, while barely evolving his style.

This is actually a good idea they went massive all in one film working towards it more along these lines would've worked.

I would like Polaris and a proper Jubilee or Dazzler. Though Cecila Reyes or Marrow in one of these movies having Storm ripping out her heart I would just love to see.

Sunfire and Majik are pretty much confirmed for New Mutants.

people ignore the fact he himself talked about the shiar and taking X-men into outer space.not that it matters now that is probally done with X-men after apocalypse after it under-performed.as i said he should walk away if he doesn't direct which he probally won't now.

 

[marvelrobbins]

Only Magik has been confirmed for new mutants with wolfsbane,cannonball,sunspot,mirage,and cannonball.Xavier has been confirmed to appear.we will have to wait to see when it takes place to figure out which xavier it will be.

One reason why I'm interested in the New Mutants movie is because I keep seeing rumors that Magik is in it.

I'm not that familiar with the character ( other than she's Colossus' sister ).

but, the more I read up about her, the more I'm interested in her.

she seems right up my ally in terms of characters I like........lol.

I think your confusing Sunfire with Sunspot, yes Magik is confirmed though which I'm actually excited for.

Making Dark Phoenix Saga doesn't mean outer space. See: X3.

 

[X Knight]

I'd also like to see X-23.

and, I know it's a longshot, but I'd like to see Rina Logan ( aka Wild Thing ) as well.

I mean, Rina is essentially Wolverine + Psylocke combined into one!! How could you possibly go wrong with that??!! lol

indeed, I actually wouldn't mind if they sort of combined X-23 and Wild Thing into one character. Make her the clone of Wolverine, like X-23, but give her psionic claws like Wild Thing.

She is one of the most interesting mutants. If Fox do it properly, her demonic limbo will be an eye candy and hope they will use her current black uniform.

indeed. plus it would certainly be a welcome change of pace and setting.

btw......is Magik supposed to be the leader of the New Mutants or at least the central figure?

 

[Sithborg]

Yes, yes I am.

No he didn't and he can't even determine whether a costume looks good or bad and doesn't know how to make people "fly".

Not a leader, but definitely some very interesting stories. If they go the supernatural route, would be interesting. If the rumors are to be believed, and Anya Taylor Joy is Magik, I can see Boone using her as of the main leads. Magik is pretty popular in the comic community as well, so that helps.

ah, thanks.

I want Storm in New Mutants.

I would like to see Dazzler, Longshot, Polaris, Forge, Sunfire and Marrow!

I want Penance.

 

[Iceman]

Magik is one my favourites outside of the core team. Would love to see her in NM.

 

[psylockolussus]

You might get your wish

 

[kasjan]

Anyone else think Apocalypsse's last line was ironic?

He realized, he's not the strongest.
Would prefer if earlier he said something similar to what he said in TAS, about humans, mutants and himself.
He could say: I am as far beyond you, as you are beyond humans.


X-Men: First Class
budget $160 million
box office $353.6 million

X-Men: Apocalypse
budget $178 million
box office $250.8 million (at this moment, not even half of screening time)

And people talking about reboot?
I read opinions and it's definitely because no OT cast here.
What money would make next X-Men movie after FC, if it wasn't DOFP (where they needed OT cast for the story)?
