Man oh man, do I want to see this now after seeing Olivia Munn in that outfit.

[kamikazekeeg]

Apocalypse is looking small, but the designs look cool.

[tafk]

Two puns on the cover ........... my god EW at least have some decency.

[tripredacus]

I am excite!

[fighterpilot562]

Screw Olivia Munn, she stole my man.   

[foxhack]

Yeah... sorry, but that ridiculous Apocalypse design isn't helping at all. I mean, it's still better than this...



... but not by much.

[burningdoom]

Better than?

I saw the EW cover and thought Apocalypse looked....well, ridiculous. 

Olivia Munn is hot, but I'm a bit concerned if her "acting chops" will be up to snuff.  And from what I can tell, her costume looks like a campy Halloween outfit.  I know...it looks like her costume from the X-Men runs back in the 90's and I'm down with that.  But imagine Hugh Jackman as Wolverine in Spandex and well...you get the idea. 

What looks good in the comics doesn't necessarily look good in film.

^ Her costume is EXACTLY as it is in the comics. While Apocalypse looks stupid, her costume is spot-freaking-on.

Yeah, I said it looks just like it did in the 90's during the Jim Lee run of the series.  I just don't think it looks good in real life.  And I'm a bit annoyed that Halle Berry isn't Storm. 

[burningdoom]

Really? Halle Barry was a TERRIBLE choice for Storm. I mean in the comics and cartoon Storm was a strong-willed, and forceful woman who took lead all the time. Halle Barry did not come off as that, at all.

Not saying Halle Berry was a good choice, but that since she was the actress who portrayed Storm all this time, it sucks when they switch actors.

^ The movie is set in the 80s. So all the characters are supposed to be younger.

Yeah...but the girl playing Storm now doesn't look anything like Halle Berry.

If memory serves me well, in the comics Storm changed also a few times
