Following the critically acclaimed global smash hit X-Men: Days of Future Past, director Bryan Singer returns with X-MEN: APOCALYPSE. Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshipped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel’s X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible. Upon awakening after thousands of years, he is disillusioned with the world as he finds it and recruits a team of powerful mutants, including a disheartened Magneto (Michael Fassbender), to cleanse mankind and create a new world order, over which he will reign. As the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Raven (Jennifer Lawrence) with the help of Professor X (James McAvoy) must lead a team of young X-Men to stop their greatest nemesis and save mankind from complete destruction.

Looks great. First the spectacle that was B v S (in my opinion chill) now this. What a time to be a fan of superhero films.

spectacle? lol

Now that’s what you call a cgi-fest. My choice of Marvel movie of the year.

Why is Mystique so damn important? She’s useless unless she’s transforming into something. She’s a spy not the leader of the XMEN
-
In this trailer, it’s made clear that Xavier is kidnapped/absent in some capacity. S Mystique is the only other protagonist that has been around since First Class that has had as much time invested as Xavier and Magneto. Since both of them are elsewhere with Apocalypse, she’s the only one left that can call in the X Men, since Wolverine is captured (and more of that will be seen in the movie), and all the little X Men (which are young and inexperienced) just show up in this movie for the first time; people aren’t as invested in them yet to watch any of them lead a charge against Apocalypse.

The new trilogy that began with X Men – First Class in 2011 focuses on Professor X, Magneto, and Mystique as their 3 main characters. It was a creative decision taken right in the beginning of all this, and so the focus she has in this film is justified by the time invested in her from the get go, which was well before Jennifer Lawrence became as popular as she is today.

Hmm, I can see that.. I agree with you.

When did Mystique start acting like Katniss? Is that how she is in the comics?

Forget everything you think you know. This advice goes to both X-Men and Doctor Strange, and I’m not quite sure it’s the best advice. I mean, it’s probably helpful to remember SOME of what you know, right?
Cyclops: I’ve… I’ve forgotten how to chew!
Beast: I’ve forgotten how to dial a telephone!
Stephen Strange: I’ve forgot to file my taxes before April 15th! Why did you tell us to forget everything we think we know? WHY?!-
Someone clearly forgot “Cyclops” only has one lens in his visor.

Looks awesome. Only problem is the obvious Mystique playing a huge role despite never coming off as a leader.
We’ll see just how much destruction will be in this. Looks like a whole lot. -
I loved Man of Steel. Absolutely loved it.
But you don’t have to shit on a movie that isn’t even out yet to make MoS look good. That movie stands on it’s own merit. So must this movie. Be patient my friend.

Shouldn’t have watched the FINAL trailer then. They’re designed to convince those who haven’t already made up they’re mind to watch the movie. That involves giving the average moviegoer a clear idea of what they can expect in the movie, by SHOWING THEM LOTS OF FOOTAGE in a linear sequence.
You can’t complain that fire burns.

Too many spoilers.
Hollywood LOVES to spoil too many movies lately. All the big actions scenes, all the loudest laughs, even the surprise cameos are all spilled months before audiences can even purchase tickets.
I guess it must be working for most but for me, I stay away from it.
-
I agree. Hollywood tends to sacrifice the integrity of a film for the sake of raking in the most amount of money. Sadly, it is what it is. I try to stay away from trailers and promotional material, especially once I’ve already decided to watch the movie.

Do not even try to apply continuity to Fox’s X-films. Even Logan gets a nosebleed from it all.
-
No trailer should be over 90 seconds
-
I suppose the movie will explain that.
-
I think wolverine helps scott and jean while escaping stryker and his men after his successful adamantium experiment….i hope they do that
-
I enjoyed this trailer a lot more than I was expecting, good job Fox with the ending cameo, just enough to get people excited. The one thing I don’t like however is this damn reoccurring theme of “war” throughout the X-men movies, I swear all the trailers about this movie have been 90% Jennifer Lawrence screaming about a war. I don’t want a damn war, I wish superhero movies would drop this habit of making the fate of the entire planet hang on the conflict, it totally takes me out of it.
-
YES! Looks fantastic!

Too bad Psylocke will be played by the human cardboard cutout known as
Olivia Munn
