re: New Xmen Apocalypse Trailer (New Footage)

Oh, they weren't total crap. And I'm willing to concede that perhaps a lot of corners were cut due to the material and the uncertainty of it. Perhaps the studio wasn't prepared to shell out given the untried material. Perhaps that is why, when you put them next to First Class and DOFP they come across as even worse.

Prof X and Wolverine were perfectly cast and conceived. I liked Storm and I wanted to like Magneto, but he always seemed too frail in spite of his power. Everything else was patchwork to me. Too many compromises, especially in light of the success of First Class and DOFP.
