The New Mutants (2018) X-Men
 
It's a X-Men film.
It's a Horror Film.

It's both.

fucking why?

slik 10-13-2017 04:26 AM

Because FOX takes creative chances with their Marvel properties (Logan, Deadpool) and they have the rights to the New Mutants comic book. I believe this is based on "The Demon Bear Saga".

Fignuts 10-13-2017 04:48 AM

This is a much bigger departure than either of those films.

I don't even mind that it's a horror movie.

If they took inspiration from the tone of the book, and Bill Sienkiewicz's creepy avante garde art style, I think they could make something really cool and unique. This looks like a generic looking by the numbers horror movie.

Sixx 10-13-2017 06:09 AM

Looks kinda shit.

Rammsteinmad 10-13-2017 07:18 AM

Looks shit, but interesting that they're trying a different approach to what should essentially be another superhero movie.

slik 10-13-2017 08:11 AM

I don't think it looks bad at all -- I think everyone is being 'hyper-negative'

Looks like a typical horror flick....not sure what people dislike...mad no explosions/lens flare/Professor X monologue or w/e, who knows

Ruien 10-13-2017 08:15 AM

Meh. It's not like they are taken the current X Men movies and turning it into a horror film.

Destor 10-13-2017 08:23 AM

Very generic

Kalyx triaD 10-13-2017 08:55 AM

I happen to like costumes and speeches, thank you.

slik 10-13-2017 09:16 AM

This was released by a SFX studio who was prepping the movie when it was announced so I think it will still have some 'big sequences' -- this is just more of a teaser trailer.

How much are they paying you to promote this movie

slik 10-13-2017 10:52 AM

Not nearly enough!

Fignuts 10-13-2017 01:49 PM

Slik I am not having a conversation with you through rep damn it. Say it here.

Donut be a grumpy old man who h8's change @ Fignuts!!
Open UR <3 to new ideas instead of grumpy ideas

ONE LOVE

Fignuts 10-13-2017 02:35 PM

Just because something is done in a new way does not automatically make it good.

I am far from grumpy. I enjoy most things more than the cynical, nitpicky internet, whether it's games, movies, or comics. I generally feel that most people need to lighten the fuck up when it comes to these topics. Also, I love horror and can absolutely appreciate a generic flick for what it is. The problem is, that the New Mutants have such a rich history, and it's hard to watch this trailer and see it as anything but a missed opportunity.

That said, I realize that it's just the first trailer, so I won't completely condemn it. Not hyped for it at all though, at this point.

slik 10-13-2017 02:39 PM

That sounds Fair enough!

I've gone LuvNuts 4 FigNuts now. Also the Demon Bear better be scary as fuck and not cheap CGI.

Ruien 10-13-2017 02:40 PM

Wonder is powers will be a big thing or a small piece to the movie.

Ruien 10-13-2017 02:41 PM

Also feel this may go the Resident Evil route where the first movie is more of a horror and then it transitions into more action.

slik 10-13-2017 03:12 PM

idk...I googled the characters in it and their powers 'seem cool' but X-Men/Mutants powers pretty much always 'seem cool'.

Illyana - magic sword/teleporation
Wolfsbane - turns into a werewolf
Cannonball - tuns really hot and flies like human torch but shoots fireballs too
Sunspot - strong af and absorbs/shoots out energy
Moonstar - telepath who can shoot arrows telepathically

Destor 10-13-2017 03:29 PM

Illyana (Magik) is the ruler of Limbo...stupid OP. ALSO Colossus' sister

slik 10-13-2017 03:34 PM

which one of them has a dragon on their shoulders, is that her too?

Destor 10-13-2017 03:56 PM

No thats kitty pride/shadow cat Illyana's (ex?) Sister-in-law

Blonde Moment 10-13-2017 05:33 PM

Actually Kitty is Lockheed's pet human
Looks like Kitty is back with the Russian in the comics

Fignuts 10-13-2017 06:42 PM

Thought she got married to star lord

Blonde Moment 10-13-2017 08:20 PM

Naw that fell through
Looks like Peter and kitty are a thing and something is going on with Kurt and Rachel Summers

Ruien 10-13-2017 10:27 PM

Cyclops has a sister now? Wtf. (I don't read comics)

Destor 10-13-2017 10:40 PM

Marvel Girl is the daughter of an alternate timelines Cyclops and Jean Grey

Emperor Smeat 10-13-2017 11:05 PM

Know nothing about the New Mutants series but trailer felt like just another terrible or generic type horror film. Even had the cheap jump scare tease included which is something I despise a lot in modern horror films.

Destor 10-13-2017 11:10 PM

Thats not generic ESmeat. Thats REVOLUTIONARY

Destor 10-13-2017 11:10 PM

Generic Horror AVEC MUTANTS

Blonde Moment 10-14-2017 12:47 AM

The Demon Bear storylinewas a pretty good story arc for its time and was the start of Bill Sienkiewicz run on the title who was known for his run on Moon Knight. The Storyline starts in New Mutants 18 and the change in art style from 17 to 18 is pretty jarring

Lock Jaw 10-14-2017 01:19 AM

This does not look good to me...... was hoping for a more "X-Men the new class" vibe..... is this even going to be in the same continuity?

slik 10-14-2017 01:20 AM

Yes, James McAvoy filmed scenes for it

Blonde Moment 10-14-2017 03:04 AM

The original storyline was more or less supernatural in nature involving a Native American type demon (foggy on that one). This version? Whose to say, it could all take place in the children's minds

Danny Electric 10-14-2017 05:08 AM

Leave my opinion open on it , interesting to see something different done as said before more than likely to be a teaser trailer.
Interesting casting , after watching Split last night was impressed with Anya Taylor-Joy's performance and of course we know all about Maisie Williams and Charlie Heaton.
Definitely interested in it .
