Looks like the storyline is more or less Terminator 2, and they're definitely making the most of the actors who have gotten much more popular since before. They're getting them out of the blue makeup, too.

There's no way that first building will stand up to OSHA, though.

Nice. That looks ****ing outstanding.

There better be a 3 or 4 hour extended cut on dvd...

These ****ing Sentinels...

This is truly the golden age of super heroes.

Thanks for adding that. I knew I'd forgotten something.

Nice. I'm a big fan of alternate histories.

It's kind of crazy to think about how much hate mutants would be met with in this world.

Def excited for this

Hell yes

I think I've seen the latter half of that scene, and the Sentinels kill the hell out of all of them.

Yeah, I think you're right. There's even a quick snippet of Magneto on a rooftop looking like he's about to eat a blade from a Sentinel.

And that portal teleport ability is bad ass.

I thought it was Storm about to get the blade in the back.

You could be right as Magneto would just turn the thing into a Slinky if he wanted. I thought I saw his helmet though...

Either way, this movie looks to be huge. I so hope it doesn't end up disappointing.

You're right, it's Storm. Don't know WTF I was thinking.

The sentinels kill everyone in that scene? Those are huge name mutants and you should spoiler that kind of stuff, if true.

Also, I agree, Bowser. I'm guessing that's Blink? Nightcrawler is the shit but Blink and Gateway put him to shame.

That's the opening scene of the movie, and I don't know if they all die, but I'd be really surprised if they don't, since as I understand it the whole plot is supposed to be Logan going back in time to keep the Sentinals from killing all the mutants. But I'm fairly sure that I have seen some clips of several of them getting cut to pieces, somewhere.

I can't really spoil anything, because I haven't seen the movie or read the comics....

Those sentinels look horrible.

Sentinels don't seem to look anything like the comics/cartoons

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/gsjtg7m1MMM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>final trailer. Yes!

Ok, that looks fantastic. They should have just cut that trailer from the beginning.

And there's the clip I saw sometime earlier with Iceman getting his head knocked off. LMAO

Good trailer.

So Quicksilver won't even be Magneto's son in this universe? **** me, dude. This is Wolverine and Sabertooth in X Men 1 all over again.

..And this is after The Wolverine so Wolvie has bone claws exposed but adamantium still laced to the rest of his skeleton, correct?

The one in the more recent trailers is one that exists in the future. I think there are slightly more traditional looking ones around when Trask first builds them up to the present day in this movie. At least that is what I have gathered from all the shit leading up to now.

edit: When I say "traditional" I mean that they appear like the older purple ones in their abilities and build. They are not like the shape shifting ones of the future.

I still think the 'original' ones look goofy as hell, with those clear plastic facemasks.

This could be good.

I'm going to say no. My theory is that Xavier sends Logan's future consciousness back to inhabit his younger self, therefore you get the adamantium claws all over again.

Of course, if you do that, you get all kinds of paradox issues for the future X-Men films. Maybe Xavier accounts for that? Maybe I'm completely off....

:hmmm:

Well at about 2:07 in that new trailer you can see Wolverine with the bone claws. Of course, there's no way to know if that is Logan's past or future self so there's no point in guessing..

If they send Logan back 50 years into the past from around 2020, I'm guessing, that'll put him in the 70s which would have been before he got the adamantium anyway.

This movie looks great. The liberties that Fox has taken with Xmen are atrocious, the absolute worst out of any comic book franchise. It was bad enough that Rogue got pussified, that Cyclops and Professor X died, and that Wolverine Origins even existed, but why the hell bring Quicksilver in and not make him Magneto's son? Why do you need to bring HIM in just to mess up his background and story? Isn't there another mutant that could've helped them get down to the prison without being seen? I mean it's just stupid sometimes and I really can't wait till the rights go back to Marvel because they need to relaunch the Xmen. As my favorite comic book heroes ever, they've been given a raw deal.

Remember that, when the first X-Men movie came out, they didn't know the superhero genre would take off like it did. In the first cast, they had to include Wolverine and Storm (the two most popular), Cyclops and Jean (the two integral to the plot), and Rogue (whose can't-touch-you power best symbolize mutant isolation), so right off the bat they couldn't follow the original team lineup. After that, they've been trying to fix the timeline, but then it got worse for them when Brian Singer bailed to make that awful Superman movie, and they churned out two awful movies, killing two of their most pivotal characters in the process. Whoopsie.

Since then, they've been trying their best to repair the canon, and they're getting better - The Wolverine was the closest they've been yet to remaining faithful to the actual story. As for a reboot, it will take Stewart, McKellan, and (most importantly) the un-recastable Hugh Jackman to retire or die before they do that - and seeing as Jackman appears to be intent on playing Wolverine well into his old age, I wouldn't hold your breath.

Shit http://www.thewrap.com/bryan-singer-...g-underage-boy

I'm sure the timing of this suit is just a coincidence.

I love the fact that you are going to have Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch in two different movies (X-Men and Avengers 2) played by two different actors with two different story lines, and the rule is they can't mention each others other storyline (In X-Men they can't name drop the Avengers initiative and in Avengers they can't bring up their mutant heritage) per studio orders.

And since then, they've signed him up for another Wolverine solo movie. It's due out in 2017, when he'll be 48.

To be fair, Scarlet Witch isn't in the X-Men movie; only Avengers 2.

That said, yeah, go figure.

and isn't Iceman an omega level mutant? pretty much like one of the strongest mutants, ever. He actually almost can't die lol. How are they going to kill him? There's no way they can.

Comic book Iceman has a shit ton of potential but he's a slacker douche.

I never got the impression that movie version Iceman was anywhere near as powerful as his comic counterpart.

Ya im pretty pumped for this movie! I liked all the prior xmen movies. Absoulutely loved the cartoon series back in 90s lol

Statute of limitations was about to run out I believe. Everything I have read today indicates that Singer is a pretty ****ed up dude. Trolls the 18 and up LA gay clubs which are known for having underage boys in them (sneaking in). Has massive parties at his mansion with a ton of drugs and young(er) men. True "casting couch" sessions as well apparently.

Where is Dane?

He's not even close. For the movies, he's much closer to how he was in Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends.

I should clarify that the reason I mentioned the timing issue last night is that I wonder if it's at all possible that a competing studio would support the suit under-the-table in an effort to torpedo the public interest in the film's release. I think there's a real chance homophobia trumps "oh cool 'splosions!", particularly in the young male portion of the audience.

Yeesh.

Even with that said, the feel and timing of this is a bit suspect. Initially it has the feel of someone making a money grab. Hopefully that's what it really is.

I think it's fairly established that he's a guy who likes drugs and young twinks and uses his power in Hollywood to procure ample amounts of each.

To be established is how young and how unwelcoming some of the procured were.

I'm going to be the first to be completely honest here. If I have money, fame, and power, I would probably use it to acquire ample amounts of drugs, and young, hot, legal puss.

Yeah they messed up Ice Man completely. He is certainly Omega level because of he can use his abilities at the molecular level.

He attains that level in the comics eventually, but during most of the X-Men's existence, he isn't of noticeably greater power than the others; in fact, he's probably significantly weaker than, say, Storm. He is also growing in power in the movies, after having started as a teenaged student, which is closer to his arc in the comics than, say, Cyclops or Jean. Therefore, you could easily say he just hasn't achieved his Omega-level power yet.

If you want to talk continuity, there are sooooo many far juicier targets of well-deserved scorn in those movies than Iceman.

yeah I have always found it funny they have characters who should be super bad ass, as weaklings. But you have wolverine as a badass, wolverine is one of the pussiest mutants.

Storm should be Omega level, she controls weather, hell imagine her just directing non stop lightening at one person for awhile, Logan could not even survive that.

You already have iceman.

Professor X, in my opinion he is the worlds greatest villian, people just do not know it. He changes your memories and mind. Does it to Logan and Jean all the time. Probably does it to every x-man.

Wolverine is over saturated but he's farrrrrr from a pussy. He's the best there is at what he does, and what he does isn't very nice!

....... No but seriously. He basically can't ****ing die and he slaughters people left and right. He's about as badass as they come.

Yeah...how is Wolverine one of the pussiest mutants?

Jubilee anyone?

And I agree about Iceman.

He has potential but he's always portrayed as a kid and/or unfocused. But even in the films, his power has been steadily progressing. In X Men 1 and X2 he was just a little douche. Freeze a pond here, make a little ice rose there. In X3 he finally turned into his full ice form and dicked Pyro. Now, it looks like he's always in ice form for battle and riding around the ice shutes.

Pretty much none of the mutants are as powerful in the movies as they are in the comics though and that's probably for the best.

Hmm . . . Wolverine a puss?

In his defense, he has several lifetimes worth of experience, both on the battlefield and off. These give him sharp instincts on top of his heightened senses and (until recently) the ability to withstand damage that would level a small city. He can speak numerous languages, is extremely comfortable in wilderness settings, has an extensive list of contacts and friends, and most of all, is staggeringly dangerous when in close quarters combat.

However, his effectiveness drops off severely after about six feet of distance. He's not particularly strong, fast, agile, smart, disciplined, or tactically savvy, and after forty years, he still doesn't work well on a team. He can be easily corralled or evaded by someone so inclined, and usually won't figure out a plan until it becomes obvious to him. When he does win a combat, it's more often than not by naked aggression than by actually utilizing any of the decades' worth of fight training he's no doubt ignored in favor of just being pissed off all the time. He's survived this long based mostly on his ability to take a vicious beating, and his popularity among comic readers.

He's one of the most popular superhero characters ever, but he'd most likely lose in a head-to-head match-up with almost any other comparable character, on account of being a bit of a one-trick pony.

Wolverines whole mythos is look, he has claws, he is cool, kids love him, lets write on that.

Him cuttings a sentinels head off with one swipe. He is not strong enough, nor are his claws long enough. He is basically batmanlike, only normal humans should fear him. Him taking on the hulk or thor, it is a joke, most of the other xmen should take him one on one if you strictly go on their powers. But no, he survives and is made better than what he is from marketing and writing.

His comp is shatterstar but with adamantium. Ok, shatterstar might be more of a badass.

It really depends on the writer but most of the time they really don't do Wolverine any favors.

The guy is 100+ years old with experience training on Canadian black ops teams, samurai, and the Weapon X program. His skeleton is unbreakable and he can regenerate from most any wound in a matter of minutes. He should be one of the most skilled fighters in the Marvel U but he's usually depicted as nothing more than a mindless berserker.

He is a skilled fighter, but that basically should only allow him to destroy humans with ease. His healing and metal make him one of those blow up punching guys, you know, the one you hit to the ground and it pops back up towards a lot of mutants.

That said, old man logan is one of my favorite books.

Idk. He's pretty durable and his claws are sharp as shit so he's a danger to some more powerful characters.

I'd put him on the Captain America/Batman level.

That sounds about right to me, with the caveat that he has so little versatility.

So why isn't the young version of professor x in a wheelchair?
Posted via Mobile Device

He is then he isn't then he is then he isn't. I dunno how they're going to spin it.

His injury hasn't occurred yet?

It has to be because he tells Magneto that he took everything he loved from him.....his ability to walk...and Mystique.

Not even close...

3-D Man...
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...50px-3Dman.jpg

. . . neither of which are mutants.

True.

But "Purple Man" has a daughter named...Purple girl who's both lame and a mutant.

Pixie is a pretty lame character and weak ripoff of Magik.

Isn't this movie set after First class? He got shot and paralyzed at the end of first class.

No arguments there.

And - though I have a close friend who will punch me hard if she sees me type this - Cypher was pretty lame as well. He was a shy, skinny nerd whose mutant power was that he could read any language, but could never translate it for others.

Needless to say, he was the designated punching bag of the New Mutants, and he ultimately was the first to die.

Forge is a big pussy.

Nuthooks...

Finally figured out where I, err, saw that scene.
