    I wish Apocalypse had more of a booming robotic voice like on the show. Sounds more menacing.

    Damn, he's more powerful than superman and Goku combined.

    Why bother recruiting the 4 horsemen?

    I agree with you. Especially more interesting than Civil War.

    I'm more interested in Civil War. Marvel has done great things with the Avengers, and Winter Soldier was one of the best ones. I'm expecting Civil War to be great, too.

    As for X-Men, Apocalypse looks cool. I'm tired of the JLaw-train, though, and I hate how they're making Mystique a good guy. I'll watch it, but won't be as excited as the A-list Marvel movies.

    Also they changed mystiques personality to get jlaw möre screentime. We only see her in her Pretty form. One of her defining qualities is that She can look like anyone. But chooses to be the "ugly" mutant form...

    Yeah same. Civil War looks more interesting than this to me. But this could be really good too.

    Stop the J law hate.

    Don't forget Sansa Stark is the new Jean Grey.

    This will be good.

    I really do not understand the obsession with her. She is not a good actor (She is terrible in the hunger games).

    Whether or not people like her in action movies (I actually don't), you can't watch some of her other films, like Winter's Bone or the weird Philadelphia one with what's-his-handsome, and not see her as an amazing talent.

    I have not see her in those movies. So She is indeed good in those movies?

    I just know that She was terrible in the hunger games.. But that must have been the director.

    I am also not that impressed with her x-men. I just hate it when they change stories to get more screen time for specific actors (like they did with storm wokverine and now Mystique )

    Yeah, I haven't seen the Hunger Games. I think she stunk in X-Men, but she played a blue lady who doesn't really talk. It's terrible casting for her in any case.

    Here's one of my fave scenes from Silver Linings Playbook:
    <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/eIVQUJYUKoY" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    And this is kind of out of context but it's sort of a key scene. Totally holding her own with Cooper in this scene, IMHO.

    I don't think she likes being in X-Men. They signed her early to a Morey contract and she's been stuck. Going through the motions. Seems too good for it. Fassbender on the other hand seems to welcome the paychecks.

    I don't know if that's the issue cus she isn't obligated to do any more of these but has shown interest.

    I just think it's a really bad character for her. She would have been a great Rogue (assuming she can pull off an accent). Fassbender on the other hand is the truth. Period.
