When
the image of the character Apocalypse was released a while back I was
pissed. My first introduction to the character was I the X-Men
animated cartoon and I was intrigued. Who the hell was this guy that
could fly, change shape, super strong, shot lasers, and had a talking
spaceship? At the time he was just some mutant that wanted to kill
weaker mutants and humans. Then Marvel started giving more back story
on the guy.
"In
the harsh, unforgiving desert of ancient Egypt, ruled by Rama-Tut, a
band of nomadic raiders found an infant, gray-skinned and freakish in
appearance, abandoned by the settlers of Akkaba. The nomads took the
child for their own, giving him the name En Sabah Nur, 'The First
One,' and teaching him to be 'strong' in order to survive the desert
as a child. This idea, that 'the strong will survive,' would shape
Apocalypse's actions throughout time."
Sounds
pretty cool, huh? Well in the next film X-Men Apocalypse I don't know
who the fuck this guy that Oscar Isaac is playing but it sure as hell
ain't Apocalypse! I'm not even one of those people that say that a
character has to look exactly like the comic book version. I
appreciate that Batman isn't blue and gray in the movies. But this
shit is for the birds.
They
already have me laughing at the fact that another X-Men film is even
being done. The last few have been laughable except for Michael Fassbender turning Magneto into a super powered James Bond but even
that got old. They have made a lot of X-Men related films and none of
them have kicked ass. None. If you think one of them did, watch it
again and prove yourself wrong. This new one is erasing things from
previous ones and using a villain that should've been brought up
years ago. And he looks like ass. Check out this cosplay version
someone did.
That
is what they should have started with. Not this weird, shiny thing
that they are attempting to pass off as Apocalypse. For anyone
bitching about my pre-bitching about this movie, you must not have
read one of my blogs before. This is what the fuck I do.
