Empire doesn't always feature finished shots, there could be CGI on Apocalypse in the final film.

With DC, I tend to say that the costumes shouldn’t be judged by how the look pre-processed, but these … I have no idea where they are going with that look. The plain-clothes costumes looked friggin’ awesome, though, but I guess we’re going to get 80s costumes, too?

Mystique and Quicksilver are in all black here, so we might not get the costumes we want

Apocalypse always looks terrible. That's no worse than what he often looks like in the comics. There will be no doubt CGI that enables him to grow bigger and stretchy and make hammers out of his fists.

Oh wow I'd love it if the X-men have their 90s costumes. Except Jean, no one should have to wear that tan bodysuit with a blue headsock.

Her real name is Raven Darkholm, she couldn't be more goth if it played Bela Lugosi's Dead when she farted.

I can’t recall anyone doing convincing facial animation yet. Ronan is one of my favourite comicbook-movie villains, and I bet he would have been pretty boring as CGI.

Was Ronan a good villain? It seemed like he just kinda stood there not doing much. Except when he fought Drax, but anyone can fight anyone.

Trust me, you are taking this a lot more seriously then I am.
He was a decent villain with enough characterization to justify him not just nuking the planet when Quill started a dance off. Ronan just wanted some respect.

I think Apocalypse's costume looks incredibly cool. I'm on board with the design choices there. I'm also hoping they'll do some effects wizardry or something to make him look like a bigger/taller dude. Even if it's just forced perspective or some poo poo, that'd be fine if they can keep it up.

Edit: His face isn't great, but I'm hoping that's just early footage + EW shots not being great, and it'll be fine in theaters. Let's start a Twitter campaign demanding Apocalypse's face line things. #WheresEnSabahNursApocaLips

Ronan was cool in terms of introduction and characterization, but his role and narrative were weird, yeah. I haven’t been blown away by a lot of villain’s grand scheme and philosophy. I’m a bit of a stickler for good costuming and non-CGI work.

His face looks like busy mush. Like somebody dropped a blue jawbreaker into a bowl of oatmeal and swirled it around a few times.

Yea, got to keep this in mind. Most of the times the Empire photo stuff looks like arse compared to the finished product, so it should be taken with a grain of salt until the trailers are out. That being said, I think Apocalypse's head looks too small for the size of the armor he is wearing. It really throws the perspective off and makes it look like a young kid wearing adult clothes.

You don't appreciate Apocalypse's mouth lines until you see him without them. It's really the defining feature of his face.

What I find amusing is how accurate Psylocke's costume is (to the point of it being somewhat cosplay-y) but how different Apocalypse looks from the comicbooks.
