Recommended Posts

Guest Lethargic
That poster looks kinda ghey, and I'm a X-Men geek (kind of).

That would explain the picture of that mutant in your sig. ZIIIIIINGGG!

Reminds me of the 2001 Royal Rumble poster

I think those were supposed to resemble the early 90s Royal Rumble posters.

 

Paquin looks f'n hot in this poster.

OK I'm not a huge X-Man fan (except both the cartoons, loved those things) and I can identify the usual suspects (Wolverine, Cyclops, Storm, etc. etc. even Nightcrawler WAAAYYYY in the back) but a couple quick questions.

 

Who's the guy behind Jean (looks to be in a suit rather than an X-Man outfit)?

and

The commercials seem to insinuate that Deathstrike is working against the X-Men. Why is she with them in the poster? I can assume it's just so they can get Kelly Hu in the poster, but it looks like they're making her out to be one of the good guys. Unless it's all a SHOCKING SWERVE~!

 

Ideas would be welcome. Like I said I don't know the history of the comic so be gentle.

i believe the guy behind Jean Grey is Pyro, altough is not too clear, maybe it's colossus?

 

 

and i think they just put all the mutants in the poster, goor or evil, see the tag line of the movie:

 

''The time has come, for those who are different, to stay united''

I read some early reviews on this and so far people think the storyline is just fucking great in this flick and to explain the poster for the guy who was asking *possible spoiler*

 

Syntax:

Spoiler (Highlight to Read):

I believe in this movie, it comes down to the X-men having to unite with Magneto's crew and other mutant bandits for the good of Mutant kind. I hope that was vague enough to explain without ruining anything

It is Pyro.

 

If Colossus is to be found anywhere on the poster, it'd be that guy in the background between Wolverine and Rogue. And if I had to field a guess, that's none other than...

 

Spoiler (Highlight to Read):

Beast

 

right behind him.

It's probably an excuse to get Kelly Hu on the poster. Doesn't make sense, but I'm not complaining...

That poster if phat, and the bottom with the date on the X to show that it is X2 is great.

 

However, this movie is now called X-Men United because people might not know what X2 is.

It was renamed X-Men United? Where did you hear that? I hope it's from a questionable source, because that's an awful name.

Filmforce IGN is reporting that as the title now too.

 

Yuck. Maybe it'll grow on me. I was sketchy on ATTACK OF TEH CLONES too.

This is from 411:

 

X2, the upcoming sequel to X-Men, has been changed to X-Men United. Fox changed the name after deciding that some people might not know what X2 stands for.

Hopefully it's just for the Spanish market and someone misunderstood the news they were reporting.

 

 

For some reason X-men United makes me think of a English soccer club.
