Mr. Hakujin Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 I agree with Nemo's spoiler up there. DoFP felt like a complete reboot for the franchise, a la JJ Abram's Star Trek. I don't think they have to "catch up" to Singer's original X-Men in anyway now. And if Fox really wants to keep Hugh Jackman cast as Wolverine in this rebooted timeline, which they really want to do, then when Jackman finally retires from the roll they can just introduce a Weapon X clone and cast a younger actor.

Da Cap'n 2099 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 I've been sayin it for years. Anson Mount of Hell On Wheels fame IS the next Logan/Wolverine. At least for a trilogy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Hakujin Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Hmm? Meh. Jackman's suggestion of Tom Hardy as his successor would go above him. But I want, tiny, comic book WOLVERINE in and orange and brown costume with a mask, or at least some approximation of it. No idea which actor could do that though. Maybe Jon Snow if he put on some muscle mass could do a young Wolverine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iambaytor Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Anson Mount needs to get back to at least season 1 of Hell on Wheels weight to play Wolverine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Cap'n 2099 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Dude seems dedicated to his craft. Enduring all kinda shit on Hell on Wheels. A once in a lifetime role playing one of the most iconic comic characters in history? I can see him dropping weight/getting ripped for it. Besides, HoW is about seven episodes from finishing. Mount has proven he's leading man material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C_U_SPACECOWBOY Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 At first glance, I thought they had Cyclops in his basilisk mask from the age of x storyline. Zooming in did not help... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alive she cried Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) What's amazing, is that the fanboys seem to be creaming themselves over this. Shit My fucking Hat. Edited March 25, 2016 by alive she cried Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keth Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Nightcrawler looks on point, but yeah... that isnt a flattering pic overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Nemo McFly Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Doesn't feel like a promo / puff pic. It looks like a straight-up photo-op - no glam. (shrugs) I can dig it. Cyclops' visor, though - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Hakujin Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I dig that pic. Costumes look good save for Quicksilver and beast. Eh. And why you gotta go there, Nemo? Ain't nobody need to be reminded of that. Nope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Nemo McFly Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 That 'SNIKT' at the end...fuck yeah! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alive she cried Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Looks fun, some of the acting feels a bit wooden though. I really enjoyed the last four X-Men universe movies (First Class, Days Of Future Past, Wolverine and Deapool) from Fox though, so I hope they can just keep it up.

Mr. Hakujin Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 That 'SNIKT' at the end...fuck yeah! Yup! I thought he wasn't going to be a part of this film, but the trailer hints his cameo will be significant, at least plot-wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted May 2, 2016 Author Share Posted May 2, 2016 Artist reveals unused Apocalypse design for latest X-men film Ironheas Studio -- the costume design company headed by superhero movie artist extraordinaire Jose Fernandez -- stopped by Monsterpalooza 2016, in the company's first-ever convention appearance, to discuss the various helmets and suits they've made, in addition to showing off an unused Apocalypse design that successfully rips the character right from the comics Fernandez created the unused Oscar Isaac Apocalypse mold, after another studio was ultimately chosen for the design, as a personal challenge. Fernandez discussed his work in the superhero movie industry with Tested, reflecting on his earliest professional work, with his design for the "Batman Returns" Catwoman costume, to his most recent projects, like "Captain America: Civil War" and "Batman v Superman." After reimagining the Catwoman costume, Fernandez went on to work on the various movie batsuits -- eventually going on to design Christian Bale's cowl, which was the first to allow a Batman actor to turn their head.

Jumbie Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 I dig the more ornate look of the design they went with. For all his talk of helping the species through survival of the fittest etc, Apocalypse has only ever been a wannabe king and this suits him more than the astronaut suit looking version.

Jumbie Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 (edited) That was an imaginary story, Nick. Imaginary! Stick to what happened in the real world. - - - - Well to be honest, Apocalypse has been said to rule in many places over the millennia even in the 616 timeline, so he has actually accomplished being a king in the 'real' world too. But he keeps coming back to be king, not to be some kind of weird curator/shepherd/scientist type. So he's a perpetual wannabe king. Sinister on the other hand, he's the real deal. Speaking of which, anybody check if Sinister is in this new movie in some form, maybe hinted at? They want to do Cable/X-force as a movie and they finally have a Scott and Jean pair again...

The NZA Posted May 3, 2016 Author Share Posted May 3, 2016 yeah, Sinister's a tinkerer. ive never seen him even want to rule. i know it sounds funny in a thread about Apocalypse's design, but...how would Sinister work? that entire outfit has to change (which is fine), would you still want him albino/soulpatch/red jewel in the forehead or nah? i'm prepared for any answers here except the Ultimate version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumbie Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 I think a lot of what gets put into a movie costume has to do with what the cameras can pick up on a technical level and I've heard that pale skin is a very hard thing to work with, so who knows? Got to keep the red diamond though at any rate. Trademark. The goofy tendril cape might actually work too if it's animated right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
