why not?



Is that a new Magneto ?


Not sure i like the new Charles



Are these just younger versions?

The 'new' X-Men universe is just so damn good.

I think they misfired a bit in Apocalypse but the casting and characters are still just outstanding.

Sadly, this cast is starting to either age out or just get a little too damn famous so it will probably crater right about the time the Avengers universe does, but so long as Fassbender and McAvoy are in these, each one of them has a chance to be outstanding.

This. I've loved the new X-men movies. Apocalypse was meh but it wasn't ****ing horrible. I'm hoping that they can keep some of the cast if they integrate them into the MCU.

And the Dark Phoenix saga happened right around the time I was reading comics so I've always thought it was one of the best X-Men stories.

I guess there are multiple earths and dimensions and stuff now so I have no idea about anything that happened after the early 90s, but this is all right in my wheelhouse so I'm pretty damn excited to see it.

I'm still pissed that Gambit hasn't been introduced yet. He was my favorite character back when everyone loved Wolverine.

He popped up in a Wolverine movie. Maybe the really terrible one.

Taylor Kitsch played him, IIRC. Yeah, he's an interesting character but he's also such a tonal shift. And him and quicksilver are a bit of a redundancy in terms of lightening the mood.

I just don't think they need him or could use him well without the movie feeling overstuffed.

Looks like it may be decent.

That Gambit was alright but it was in that shitty universe where Deadpool couldn't talk. **** that noise.

Which X-Men movies qualify as "the new ones"?

First Class
Days of Future Past
Apocalypse

and now Dark Phoenix.

Was that supposed to be Deadpool when they made project X or whatever?

The Jennifer Lawrence, James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Nicholas Hoult movies.

I think those 4 are the exclusive through-put; they've been in each of them. And theoretically "Age of Future Past" did the same soft reboot for the previous movies (the Patrick Stewart ones) that the Chris Pine Star Trek reboot did with their 'Kelvin Timeline'.

So Jean hasn't dropped a lake on Cyclops in this universe, etc....

Gotcha. I haven't really watched the latest X-Men movies in their entirety (just catching them here and there as background chatter while i eat) and wasn't sure on their sequencing either. I'll check them out.

I loved the first 2 but HATED Apocalypse. I'm sure I'll see it again but refused to re-watch since the theaters. The Apocalypse character was a shell of himself in the comics, and didn't seem like the movie overall really accomplished anything.
