mhhh, i like the cast and they seem to adept one of my favorite new mutants-stories with the demon bear.
but then that weird setting. what is that? nathan essex-esque experimenting on young mutants, how can this go all mystical?
then there is that tampering with the main characters. sam should be save, as long as they donīt make him say "but mah dad vote for trump, man is bringing in jobs" or something stupid like that ("they call me the don"). but i am curious how his cannonball-flight will be done.
rahne and dani also look good and fitting.
3 out of 5 ainīt bad
berto, donīt like the magma-mesh. his comic-book appearance was very unique and he did not look like demon-torch...
as a huge illyana fan she worries me the most. i got her issues growing up in limbo at a very young age and she went through a complex and horrifying transformation. seeing her walking around as cool, young goth-warriorwitch just feels degrading to the character.
she has not earned that- i am willing to bet, that they mostly cut out all the belasco stuff und just make soul sword and armor her mutant power.
all the others just discovered their powers but she has years of dealing with supernatural under her belt? donīt see it
but will see the movie
if it is ever released
ps
why did they keep that horrible "people put their faces against black latex"-effect? and it is almost the first thing you see in the trailer? start low, can only get better?
"would any share their first time?" very subtle! how would you proceed?
rahne: "i was 13. i thought it was a dream. then i lost control"
sam: "i started panicking"
berto: "my girlfriend..."
actually bertoīs supposed to be "burned" girlfried scene gave me stronge selene ("aka psychic vampire")-vibe...
since when is sunspot supposed to burn people? for ages he was just strong and durable. guess accidentally kick the **** and almost killing some guy in football match wasnīt cool enough
feels much more down to earth to mean than pool inferno incident
