X-Men: Apocalypse' Review: It's A Franchise-Killing Disaster

I liked it just as much maybe a little more than Civil "War".
Civil war came across kind of synthetic and not authentic. I didn't buy there beef with each other. The comic book had so much more emotion to it. It was a visceral reaction that the characters had to the Registration act. Civil war just didn't pull that off. Too busy with Spiderman and Black Panther. Which were both AMAZING but so good they detracted from the movie.

They actually killed him in 5 minutes. It was a one short "battle" if you will. A battle in which Apocalypse didn't do anything.
I swear they don't read the source material at all. It's like they just read the first paragraph of a wikipedia page, say, "Ok we got it", and make up the rest.
i had to tune him out. he was just not commanding.
and that's not even why he captured xavier in the tv show.
i mean they made the fantastic 4 mistake. 2 hours of background and then 5 minutes of fighting and no real build to the final showdown.
a final battle works when they've battled before and 1 side took an l or an almost l and things are left unresolved.
if the only time the main dudes fight is in the end its anti climatic
which is what they don't get.
Empire Strikes Back should be studied by anyone interested in making a superhero flick...

X-Men: Apocalypse is a 2016 American superhero film based on the fictional X-Men characters that appear in Marvel Comics. It is the ninth installment in the X-Men film series and a sequel to 2014's X-Men: Days of Future Past. Directed by Bryan Singer, with a screenplay by Simon Kinberg from a story conceived by Singer, Kinberg, Michael Dougherty and Dan Harris, the film stars an ensemble cast, led by James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Oscar Isaac, Nicholas Hoult, Rose Byrne, Evan Peters, Tye Sheridan, Sophie Turner, Olivia Munn and Lucas Till. In X-Men: Apocalypse, the ancient mutant En Sabah Nur awakens in 1983 and plans to cleanse the human race and take over the world, leading the X-Men to try to stop him and defeat his team, the Four Horsemen of Apocalypse.
The film was announced by Singer in December 2013, with Kinberg, Dougherty and Harris attached to develop the story. Word on the streets is that reaction and feedback has been mixed on the film. We currently have a 14-page thread on BGOL discussing whether or not the newest release is indeed a franchise-killing disaster. Most of us are hoping for additional photos of Jennifer Lawrence and those WGOL titties in the eventual Fappening 2.0 ... whenever the fuck that hits store shelves, the streets, and the interwebs. She's got some good titties on her. Truly tittyfuckable. That's just my $0.02 and the perspective of H-to-the-Fizzunk. Don't worry. This is not an actual edit to Wikipedia. This is just some pure comedy on a Monday for the BGOL fam'. Casting began in October 2014, while principal photography commenced in April 2015 in Montreal, Canada, and ended in August of the same year. X-Men: Apocalypse premiered in London on May 9, 2016, and was released in North America on May 27, 2016, in 3D and 2D, and in IMAX 3D in select international markets.[3] The film received mixed reviews and has grossed over $478 million worldwide.[2][4]

BoxOffice Mojo:
Rounding out the top five is X-Men: Apocalypse, which has now amassed $136.3 million domestically, enough to climb ahead of The Wolverine and become the eight highest grossing X-Men release of all-time... out of nine.

It was still better than Civil War.
Its cool -
now you know who not to ask for a movie review or who to ignore if they recommend a flick in HFunk's thread...
Were they brothers in the comics?
They were in this movie.
I was double daring the writers to bring in Mark so the trifecta could be complete.
In other words, they made shit up as they went along. lol
damn the wolverine did that bad??? shit.
and this one barely passing it lol its about to get real ugly really soon.
Mark too right?
I dont know about a Mark. In the comics Scott (Cyclops) is the older brother though.
The 3rd brother is Gabriel aka Vulcan. Not sure who this "Mark " is.
If the domestic gross even ties their $178 million budget, it would be a miracle at this point.
Yes, except cyclops is the older brother in the comics
The part with Quicksilver was cool but it's not something they haven't done before. Plus it was on the overkill side with how fast they made him out to be. Best representation of showing how faster a speedster is goes to Justice League Unlimited when they showed Flash run around the world to stop Luthor/Braniac
That scene was the truth
Lex punks him
Flash looks scared then leaves.
Then BOOM
Let's be honest. They can take any Dwayne McDuffie (peace to the god) story and adapt it for the big screen. They'll be printing money as long as its executed properly.
That's the problem with DC and FOX at this point. They aren't following any linear storylines. Hell, FOX isn't following any at all. They are taking the idea of a storyline and making up new shit.
FOX also loves to change around their characters powers, relationships and origins. We all remember that scene in X3 where Xavier rolled by Juggernaut and nothing happened. Pure fuckery.
Say what you want about Civil War, they at least stuck to main idea of the storyline and ripped scenes right out of the comic.
We could talk about the fucked up relationships in X-Men all day.Let's be honest. They can take any Dwayne McDuffie (peace to the god) story and adapt it for the big screen. They'll be printing money as long as its executed properly.

Crack. Stop smoking it
I always imagined Jean and a total bombshell
She has never been properly cast in my opinion
This would have been awesomeI just saw this shit online... This was the concept art for Apocalypse. How did the end up with the purple guy?.. More FOX fuckery.
