A few years ago when Fox decided to up their game with the X-Men franchise and take it a little more seriously, fans rejoiced and wondered when they would decide to conquer the next medium: television. Everybody and their mother is making comic book shows nowadays, so why not make one about mutants? There’s an […]
I’m not going to pretend that I’m the first to observe this. Earlier today, Entertainment Weekly published a ton of new details on X-Men: Apocalypse as well as our first (legal) look at the titular villain. I try not to delve into pure fan-wankery when it comes to movies like this and actually consider the […]
What a year 2014 has been filmwise. We’ve seen the Marvel Cinematic Universe shaken up like never before, the culminating chapter in the Middle-Earth saga, wonderful literature adaptations, and even a spot of time travel. In addition to this we’ve also learned a bit about future projects, with STAR WARS EPISODE VII: THE FORCE AWAKENS showcasing […]
Grab any 10 X-Men fans off the street, and 9 out of 10 of them will tell you that X-Men: Days of Future Past was one of the best, if not THE best, films in the franchise (the other person will still be complaining about Quicksilver’s look). That being said, many were disappointed by some […]
Wolverine has been a fan favorite for decades. He is the definition of a badass and when you consider the fact that he is immortal – you realize how little you actually know about him. That’s why it was especially disappointing when X-Men Origins: Wolverine decided to crowd his screen time with other useless mutants. […]
While the previous X-Men: Days of Future Past trailers have spent an equal time between the past and future, our primary environment was the 1970s in these final trailers. With Kashmir blaring in the background, we got a great look at Wolverine teaming up with the First Class characters to stop the Sentinels from destroying […]
The Age of Apocalypse will soon be upon us, albeit with a few differences. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, director Bryan Singer stated that X-Men: Apocalypse, the 2016 sequel to X-Men: Days of Future Past, would draw influence from the 1990 storyline Age of Apocalypse, but not necessarily create an alternate universe. Producer Simon […]
After the release of today’s new X-Men: Days of Future Past trailer, it looks like Bryan Singer’s uber-complex X-adventure is finally ready to come out of the Instagram trailer-filled woodwork and begin the customary marketing blitz you probably expect from any superhero movie now. And on top of that new trailer, Fox have released a shiny new […]
With all the Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Amazing Spider-Man 2 previews being thrown at us as of late, X-Men: Days of Future Past has been fairly quiet. Oh sure, we’ll get pictures released, but nothing beats a good ol’ fashioned trailer to sink our teeth into. Well now we have the newest trailer […]
While X-Men: Days of Future Past is shaping up to be the biggest X-Men film of all time (until Apocalypse is released, of course), there have been several weird things we’ve seen in the promotional content. No, I’m not talking about how Wolverine has adamantium claws again (seriously, what happened there?) or those odd-looking future […]
Time travel is a complicated business – just ask anyone who’s watched Doctor Who. Not only does it create the possibility for plot holes the size of Belgium, but it also leaves the slightly worrying chance that there’s two versions of you wandering around at the same time. In X-Men: Days of Future Past, we’ll […]
Comic book movies for women have been a headlining news topic for a few years now. Nearly every news story says something along the lines of “Studio person says comic book movies aren’t for women, but we disagree”. Time and time again someone from the film or comic book industry tries to convince people that […]
I get wanting to keep some secrecy around X-Men: Days of Future Past, but director Bryan Singer really needs to be more clear when it comes to what the hell is going on with Rogue. Last month, we learned that Anna Paquin’s only scene as Rogue was cut from the movie. This was Singer’s explanation for […]
Bryan Singer just loves making movies. He also loves the X-Men, but most of all he loves making movies about the X-Men. The funnest part of the job, of course, is to make sure to have… almost every X-Men character who didn’t die in the first four films in this movie. The film is set […]
X-Men: Days of Future Past is about five months away, and to get you hyped up for the time-travel epic (a.k.a. Fox’s second biggest film ever), we’ve got a heap of new images for you, including our first look at Evan Peters as Quicksilver. Take a look! Quicksilver’s punk look is a bit odd, but […]
Earlier today, we reported that X-Men: Apocalypse would be a direct sequel to X-Men: Days of Future Past and that Apocalypse himself would be the thread tying these two films together. Now, a new report from FirstShowing states that Apocalypse will appear in the Days of Future Past mid-credits scene, but how he appears quite […]
The Wolverine was released on Blu-Ray this past Tuesday, and while it may not have been the best of the X-Men films, it was fairly decent, and Hugh Jackman continued to shine as Marvel’s most ferocious Canadian. That said, with two Wolverine solo-films on his resume, will Jackman reunite with director Jim Mangold and put […]
Wait just a minute, did director Bryan Singer just announce a new X-Men film? Singer tweeted a possible hint to X-Men: Apocalypse happening in 2016. We know that Fox still has other X-Men spin-offs in the works, which include James Mangold’s Wolverine 3, Jeff Wadlow’s X-Force and Tim Miller’s Deadpool. This could mean fans will finally see the biggest/powerful […]
Brilliant. In the newest piece of viral marketing birthed from Bryan Singer’s X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST, we’re treated to a once scrapped story thread from Matthew Vaughn’s X-Men: First Class, involving Magneto and a pretty heinous crime. Apparently the Master of Magnetism assassinated President John F. Kennedy. Ballsy move, even for the leader of […]
A while back a prop department image appeared online featuring Wolverine’s classic cowl costume. Something that has never been featured in the X-Men films. The costume was put together for The Wolverine but never made into this summer’s cut. However, an alternate ending to the film was shot that included Logan receiving the costume as […]
