The costumes might not look like the CLASSIC outfits but they seem to match the ULTIMATE costumes just right.

hmm yeh true in that degree. eh yeh,, live action movies have an effect on comics also i noticed years ago. the xmen movie costumes ended up being in the comics also after that. but then again i dont care too much for xmen comics now like i did in the 90s

. ive become more n more picky now.

Off topic here, but am I the only one who'd love to see Hugh Jackman, Kelsey Grammer, and the others in the Astonishing X-Men or Jim Lee costumes?

yeh that would be cool. i still have those astonishing Xmen comics. from the first one up until somethin. Wolverine has his yellow and dark blue xmen suit on and i think Cyclops is like all black with 2 yellow streaks er somethin. anyway it was cool lookin. the only director that would do that justice and summon a good writer for those actors is Zack snyder. he'll make it cool to look at im sure at least

id love to see a Good actress playin as the White queen though

Not to mention a better Storm. Halle wasn't horrible per se, but they could have picked better

It does look lame to many. It's not based on any actual comic property. It's rewriting X-Men so far away from it's base that it resembles very little of anything from actual X-Men.

Kevin Beacon, come on now.

Maybe for your generation, but not for 30 of the last 40 years. I think Cat-Beast is stupid looking.

Zack Snyder wouldnt put them in yellow, and black jumpsuits, or re-write comic history so drastically. I gotta disagree on that a 1000%

It's not the beginning of any X-Men I know.

Personally I just think it's a lame group of mutants. Sticking Beast an Havok in with Sebastion Shaw & Azazel? Th chick with wings? Putting Emma Frost in 1962?

To me X-Men will always be Cyclops, Beast, Angel, Iceman, Jean, Wolverine, Colossus, NightCrawler, Storm, Rogue, Kitty.

You cats can have this version. As far as cool effects go, I could go watch one of Nic Cages crapfests and get effects, but I'd rather not.

This will be a cam downloader for me.

I AGREE 110%

i remember most folks thought grace jones would play storm cuz of the mo hawk she had one time smh

but on the real if rutger hauer (Batman begins/blade runner/Dune) was magneto at the time i would have liked that. he has the grill & his voice naturally. i still have that same wizard issue when they picked all the chars and that actor as magneto out before the xmen movie. it was dead on it most ways on the choices of actors

...

the ONLY one pick Wizard mag did that ACTUALLY made it was the old G from Star trek which was perfect

Dang straight Patrick Stewart was perfect as Xavier.

Would be awesome if he voiced Xavier in X-Men Destiny

trailer....looks ...biodegradable.

as far as the whole it being an X-men comic movie....NO! this is a X-men mash up movie. Random characers other than Charles and ole Mags.
ooohhh wait , DOH

...Mystque and Azazel..nightcrawler and his siblings parents. makse sense....but wait , they never met this way!

This movie has no tie ins from the other 3 other than mags and charles.

I wouldn't say Synder followed the Watchmen comics 100%. He cut out the squid, several supporting characters, the ending was different, and one of Rorshach's murders were different as well.

Not saying it's a bad film but I'm not sure if I'd say it super accurate.

Well compared to most films, Id say it's the most accurate. The ending wasnt really differant, how it happens is differant. It comes down to blaming Dr Manhatten, or blaming a mysterious squid monster alien attack. I can't really blame Snyder for that change for the sake of the average audience. The end still end up the same. John kills Rorschach, leaves, and Owl, and Silk live happy ever after.

I just realized, I thought non-bald Xavier was going to be even further back then the rest of the X-men, apparently he's walking around and hanging out with them the whole way through... how odd.

HyperVoiceActing · « **Reply #36 on:** February 12, 2011, 01:56:09 PM »

I thought he could walk before and Magento was the one who put him on the wheelchair

hmmm according to comics it was the alien named lucifer who crippled professor x by droppin a stone block on his legs crippling him while in a confrontation in the himalayas.

I have to say this, let them make their own lore. Let the studios come up with a alternate history for the X-Men. It is not like this is anything new, it is a alternate universe, so why compare it to the comics at this point. To me as I said in the Spiderman thread, it is about being in spirit of the comics. So what if Emma Frost is in it or Havoc is in it, this is just the movie universe of the series anyhow. I care about it actually being good. If you want the original stuff, read the comic books, they will always be there. I wanna see different takes and looks of popular franchises (within reason), and if it is good, well awsome, if not, well there is always the original. It is not like they are making Magneto a cross dresser or Xavier a wacky zany super hero. I want it to feel like it is X-Men, even if it isn't all accurate to the history, cause in the end does it really matter if the movie was actually good and kept in the spirit of the franchise? Obviously I can't say this movie does or doesn't keep in spirit of the X-Men franchise as it is not out, but the trailer to me was......ok. I am on the fence right now when it comes to this movie.

Well said. I'm gonna have to keep reminding myself of this post if I do watch this movie.

Well I am glad the majority of fans disagree with you. Alternate takes is all Hollywood does.

By this justification you could make the argument that the Catwoman movie was a good idea, or that Steel with Shaq was a good idea, because it's an alternate reality

No thanks. I'll stick with the comics, not some Hollywood schmucks interpretation of how the comic should be presented to the general public, because they think people are too superficial to appreciate the story as it should be.

i can feel what you saying a bit but for me, as a comic reader and avid ole head card collector. gimmie the original concepts first in heaviness before dishing me a soup can idea. its actually really cool to make alternate versions since there are so many in the marvel world. very rue indeed and good valid point you made. no arguing that, but its best to make sure the movie comes on with it being KNOWN its an alternate version of the x-men universe. opening credits man it better be said.

. the reason being is because it kinda spits on the creators of the comics foundations by makin it THEIR way to approve of young fans who never read the comics but it also kinda sullies the whole reasoning for reading comics. It makes kinda a bad ripple cause what you think will happen when these kids who just now seeing the marvel characters go back and read up on them and to find out that none of this ever happened or isnt what anyone is about? you have been HAD! they got what they want, the cash. best april fools and wont be in april.

. My kids i want to know the lineage of the characters and not the twighlight tard version of what its about because then they are gonna be more understanding and can spot the garbage from the reality of it. plus the stories in the comics are written quite better and it all leads somewhere. Now i understand to fully fleshout an x men movie in 2 hours is quite a task and they have to skip some stuff, i can respect that but just make it more surreal to sell it to me.
i will only check this out via the net man, i am not so sure about spammin my hard earnd cash on something that is kinda taking what i have come to know and sell me a dream in a bottle with a big SIKE written in bold big letters on the lable.

. and shipped First Class at that.

bu you go see it and then tell me if it was good bro, then maybe Mayyyyyybe i will buy the dvd. but you def made some cool points there.
