More Trailer ‘Trash*’: Thoughts on the Latest “X-Men Apocalypse” Preview

So yeah – another day, another super intense, action-packed trailer for a superhero cinematic extravaganza! This time the entertainment comes by way of 20th Century Fox and Marvel Studios‘ X-Men.

Here is my instant take (again from simply watching the trailer ONE time).

  1. Lots of ‘splosions: whether they be rockets flying into the sky, or stuff crashing to Earth unleashing unspeakable damage, there was a lot of s*** blowing up in this trailer. Will probably be quite awesome to see on the big screen.
  2. Sansa, is that you? Yeah, yeah I know that she (Sophie Turner) is not playing Sansa but rather a young Jean Grey. However, I cannot tell a lie and so when I first saw the trailer a fleeting thought passed through my head and included the words Sansa and mutant cosplay. Silly me. I must be psyched that Game of Thrones is coming back in a little over a month or something.
  3. I do try … I really try not to fangirl on this blog and keep it 100% legit about the art of cinema — but yeah, Magneto …

  1. Maybe I kinda sorta know what is going on(?) ‘splosions aside, I THINK I have an approximate understanding of the plot (which is intriguing); guess that is the point of a trailer after all, innit?
  2. How many mutants are too many mutants? Now, I do not mean this in a Stryker way, but rather I saw a lot of folks on parade in the relatively succinct 2:30 clip. It looks like an awful lot of folks (and screen time to be shared) is all I am saying.

X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014) Trailer

Hot off the press, here is the trailer for Bryan Singer’s latest installment to the X-Men franchise:

My initial thoughts? Well, I really have not been following the revelation of plot points, etc, so my knowledge was pretty much restricted to the casting.

However after watching the trailer, I am kind of going with the juxtaposition of the past and present(future) colliding, as well as the return of some of our favorite characters. Can’t wait to see some of the new ones too!

Your reaction? You know the routine.
