Hey guys its Gabe Ochoa. It’s been a while, I wanted to reach out and say I truly enjoyed your review of X-men Apocalypse movie. I can’t wait until you guys get to the point where you cover the Age of Apocalypse comics. I believe you will enjoy reading them. If you don’t like the run, at least you will appreciate the art. It’s AWESOME! For me, Age of Apocalypse is very close to my heart, because it was the series of comics that both my stepdad and I collected when they first came out.
Spoiler alert, it was not Apocalypse that was responsible for the Age of Apocalypse timeline. It was a skinny little brat by the name of David Holler, aka Legion. He is the illegitimate son of professor X. with immense psychic powers who thought it would be a good idea to go back in time to kill magneto. Instead he kills his father. AH SHOOOOT!!
I agree with you guys about the movie trailer. It looked pretty cool, but I am not holding my breath and here are the reasons.
Why can’t Brian Singer and Fox make a movie that is comparable to the actual comics? Joss Whedon came pretty close. Also Adam is absolutely right! When watching a new x-men movie….disregard the others. Can we get JJ Abrams to do it?
I hate to say it but I am over Mystique… why!!!!? The marvel universe is full of mutants. There is a surplus of blue characters in this movie already! Let’s see… we have Nightcrawler, Beast, Apocalypse, and Archangel. All I’m saying is that it would be nice to see fresh faces. Besides, I am sure Fox will give Jennifer Lawrence her own movie just like Wolverine. Sigh.
Sincerely your loyal fan
Doombot TaterTot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You would want JJ Abrams to do an x-men movie so he could be true to the source material. LIke how he was true to Star Trek??
