Thats Warlock, constantly shapeshifting cartoonish alien... who I assume isnt in this.
ok, not knowing a relatively obscure comic character from the 80s is understandable but computer generated imagery has been more than common in motion pictures for decades.
I meant more in the sense that they have tried to needlessly ground the X-Men movies in some sort of believability and realism and that is by far the most outlandishly comic book looking goofball character that would have appeared in the entire film franchise
Yeah, Fox's X-Men suck.
I don't think Warlock is even in their shitty New Mutants movie and he was always the coolest one, to me
Yeah that's why I was asking/the point I was attempting to make lol. Like we have what is supposed to be this dark, scary, R-Rated X-Man horror movie and people start throwing around Warlock, and when I look him up he's not only at odds with like every Fox X-Men movie made but he completely clashes with the idea of doing a dark serious horror movie hahahaha. They'd have to completely redesign him to be Warlock in name only if he showed up in the Fox movies. It'd be like them introducing Slapstick to this movie, wha!?
Well Warlock is an alien made of a Trasmode Techno-organic virus that feeds by draining the life force from living things and infecting them with said virus.
There is a horror movie in there somewhere especially with Warlock not wanting to infect others.
The film opened in the US on a limited release on October 28, 2017. Playing in 10 theaters the film made just $742 in its opening weekend (an average of $74 per venue), finishing 60th at the box office.[23]
Wow
Sorry people. Was meant to say I've heard about a new trailer but in my excitement didn't double check who I was getting this from. Nothing to see here.
Actually lots of talk about the film in the newest episode of Fatman Beyond. Bill Sienkiewicz is the special guest and has seen the movie and been in recent contact with Josh Boone, who is continuing to work on it. Says it's fantastic, praises the cast, says it has Marvel's backing, and thinks people will really love it. Grain of salt and all that but it got my hopes slightly up.
Maybe it will be decent, love me some Mutants.
I imagine once Disney and Marvel's plans for the X-Men start to solidify they'll quietly shelve it if they haven't already.
Feige said the word "Mutants" on stage, I trust this movie will release.
Do reshoots to make it pre-snap or something to justify why the actors are 5 years older now compared to other scenes lol
From all of the stuff I saw from it. It was shaping up to be an interesting watch.
I don't know why Disney would want to spend money on it or even put a movie they have nothing to do with in the MCU.
I mean, the money it would take to adapt it would be negligeable to your average MCU first movie in a series box office.
But I am aware there is always weird hollywood accounting business though where cancelling shit is better than shitting it out, so who knows.
edit: Just saw the date, no way this is releasing in 4 months tho hahaha
Expectations for this are low, but I do love TNM as a team and I think the casting for this is great. I would love to see this cast stay on and potentially portray these characters in the MCU. Probably a long shot, but would be really cool.
The purpose is to make money and set up characters so they can make sequels.
It's not like New Mutants missed some kind of cultural moment or anything, people still want to see comic book movies.
I was certain this got bumped because Disney finally axed it and making it the Roger Corman Fantastic Four of our time.
