I'm not sure either one is E: and as long as we're ranking the Hulk movies based on objectifying their lead actress, Ang Lee's Hulk had Jennifer Connelly which I'm pretty sure means it's the best one. purple death ray fucked around with this message at 14:06 on Oct 13, 2017 |

I dunno, I liked it alright. It strikes its tone really hard, it’s got a cast of actors you could really do something with, it plays it’s cards close to the chest, and it looks like it might do something more interesting than another Bryan Singer X-Men sequel. I’ll take that.

So, I know next to nothing about the New Mutants. Can someone explain why this is a horror movie and if that actually fits with the comics?

New Mutants did more horror-ey stuff than regular X-Men was doing but it's not a property that would have automatically made you think asylum horror movie.

As a pretty big horror fan, that trailer looked like a trailer for a bad horror film that would get a 3/10 rating that I would still probably see in theater because nothing else is out. I would then completely forget about it until it showed up randomly on Netflix and I would quickly think "oh yeah, I kinda remember that movie." A horror mutant x-men film could be really good. But man that trailer was just so boring.

Considering how little plot this trailer reveals, I am guessing it purposefully emphasizes the horror elements and that the movie as a whole will tell a larger story that takes them out of the asylum at some point. Making sure the audience knows this is a different tone than "Yet another movie where the x-men fight a bad guy" is the goal here, and we'll get a better idea of the film when they release the 3 and a half minute trailer that spoils the entire plot that every movie gets now. Also, it's October, soooo.

Half the New Mutants lend themselves to horror quite nicely. I'm just wondering if they'll fit in Sunspot and Cannonball. Not much room for blastin' for Sam though.

I'm not much for horror, but it is comic books, so I will probably get around to seeing it. Magik is Colossus' sister, right? I suppose the guy from Deadpool can't appear without obliterating the tone of the movie, but it's strange that they would go with her in light of that.

Fox's X-Men franchises are scattered all over the place in time and the X-Men's prominence and it's pretty cool. If you had to order the various X-Men properties in time it'd be: Current X-Men movies in the 90s while gaining prominence, Deadpool/Old X-Men movies in the present day with the X-Men at their height, The Gifted in the near future with the X-Men heavy hitters underground, Logan in the future with the X-Men all loving dead. And then Legion is just hanging around being impossible to place in time due to its retro futuristic style. I don't even think they're going to try for a greater X-Men cinematic universe. I'm kind of digging just taking each thing on its own without needing to place it in a larger continuity beyond just "sometimes the X-Men are currently a big deal, sometimes they're hiding or dead, and sometimes they're myths and legends."

As not a horror fan at all that doesn't look like something I'll see until it hits Netflix or whatever, but it at least doesn't look like an X-Men movie.

I just finished a binge through the 80s X-books and the thing about New Mutants is it was always just kinda weird. It started off as this not exactly superhero teen angst adventure book, went dark and experimental in the Bill Sienkiewicz run, brought in Warlock, introduced a bunch of connections to Asgard, etc. So while the movie doesn’t look particularly like any New Mutants comic it still is sort of in its spirit to hop genres. The worst thing is how generic a horror flick it looks, but maybe we’ll see more later to differentiate it. Then in the end they gave the book to Rob Liefeld and he immediately made it “Cable, Rob’s super cool OC that everybody loves, with his friends the New Mutants” and then turned the book into X-Force.

apparently this is going to be the demon bear arc that Sienkiewicz started on - if they follow the comics, the trailer may actually be the more mundane parts of the movie and later poo poo'll be way crazier

Mark Ruffalo was always the best. But his goof ups just make him more endearing. Also the fact that he's not an rear end in a top hat in addition to being a great actor.

I remember the very first time they did a press event for Avengers, everyone clapped when Chris Evans, RDJ, and Chris Hemsworth showed up on the stage, and then they introduced Mark Ruffalo and there was just confused silence.

One thing I enjoyed about the trailer was it seemed as though they did the "faces coming through the walls" bit the old school way like in the original A Nightmare on Elm Street, with the actors pushing through a latex wall. The CG version in the Nightmare remake looked fake as all hell.

The CG version in the Nightmare remake looked fake as all hell. It is goddamn astonishing how much worse that scene looks in the remake compared to the original, like Jesus loving Christ. I saw an interview with the director of New Mutants and he noted that it was an homage, that it was done practically, and that the remake's doing it in CG was poo poo and he is super loving right. http://www.ign.com/articles/2017/10/13/new-mutants-director-on-why-hes-making-an-x-men-horror-film-and-more?read posted:Yes, that’s my homage to Mr Craven, and we did it practically.

That probably looks very silly when being filmed, a bunch of people pushing their faces against rubber walls. e: This sounds good tho: quote:You’ve alluded to two movies, a sort of trilogy.
