[Movies] X-Men: Days of Future Past

X3 already killed off Jean and Scott, so who's left out of the original team to kill? Storm, Iceman, Rogue, Kitty... maybe Colossus...

Edit:

Beast, forgot Beast.

Storm dying would be great. I really don't like Halle Berry as Storm.
Do you know what happens to a toad when it gets struck by lightning?

Same thing that happens to everything else.

Worst quote out of any X-men movie, including the terrible Wolverine movies.

Totally agree. I don't know if it was bad direction, or if Berry just doesn't have the gravitas to pull off a character like Storm, but everything she does just comes across as meek.
 
Was the second Wolverine movie that bad? The first was so horrid, I couldn't bring myself to chance the second one. Unfortunately, most of my friends agreed with that move.
 
The Wolverine wasn't nearly as bad as Origins, but that's not saying much.

Silver Samurai is a giant cyborg and Viper is not the head of Hydra, but a shitty snake mutant.

I'll let those two facts speak for themselves.

Fun movie fact: that line was part of Joss Whedon's punch up of the X-Men script (along with my favorite line, "You're a dick."), and was supposed to be delivered as a throwaway punchline. The idea was that the answer was obvious, and she would say it matter of fact. Totally blown by Berry.
 
Wolverine was pretty damn good for the first bit, then in the last 20 minutes they remembered that they were making a comic book movie and threw all this absurd crap at you and expected you to swallow it. I understand that stuff fits into the genre but that's not the movie they were crafting for the bulk of it. It felt like it sprung up out of no where.
 
Empire magazine has a series of 25 collectable covers of XDoFP for its March issue. All of the covers can all be seen here. They give us better looks at a few new characters including:

Everyone seems to be raising a big stink about Quicksilver's look. I don't see what the big deal is. Have they not SEEN how stupid his comic costumes have been? It'd look horrendous if they tried putting that on the big screen.
 
I dunno, that was said about First Class yet it blew away expectations.
There were some problems with first class (Emma Frost) but overall, I agree, it was a lot better than I expected, and I enjoyed it.

I wonder if Frost will be in this one. She and Hallie Berry's Storm can compete to out-lame each other.
 
The goggles are the worst part, but the whole costume is just so fucking goofy.

However, I did see Iceman actually in his ice form, which, you know, fucking finally.
 
Oh god this is going to be terrible. Except for when Fassbender is in it. Then it will be awesome.

Also, remember Brian Singer had an accident after he made the first 2 x-men movies and he forgot how to make movies that don't suck. So don't get your hopes up.

These trailers are all lies. If Superman Returns is any indication this movie will be 3 hours of Wolverine staring into Jean Grey's window.
