A mutant with hollowed out bones really shouldn't be taking part in a fight club.

First rule about Angel in Fight Club; don't talk about the plot holes of Angel in Fight Club.

Dazzler OP. Never saw the appeal of Angel. Is it because he's pretty?

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders!

I always assumed its the angel wings, which innately make things cooler in accordance to the Rule of Cool.

Being one of the original five could have something to do with it.

May have everything to do with it.

They just had to use that stupid image, didn't they? Stupid Ultimatum.

So hypothetical X-Men movie question - could Fox theoretically do a "House of M" movie without access to the rest of the Marvel Universe if they found a way to work around things like Scarlet Witch and such, or would such an idea be about as infeasible as trying to do an Av X adaptation?

[up] It would be really stupid, IMO. Since House of M also involves the Avengers, IIRC.

I think FOX shares the rights to Scarlet Witch much like they do with Quicksilver, it's just they haven't wanted to use her yet. Perhaps they have an unspoken agreement FOX gets to use Quicksilver and Marvel gets to use Wanda, hence why Wanda is only vaguely implied in Future Past and Age of Ultron kills Pietro. But yeah, I think FOX could use their own version of Scarlet Witch if they wanted to.

Shame we never got to see an X-men team composed of the original five in this new set of films.

The fuck is wrong with Apocalypse's lips?

I'm talking about the fact that he seems to lack a bottom lip and his top lip looks like it's completely flat. It looks weird.

I hope they are also bulking his body up, because an actual Apocalypse head on the same Ivan Ooze body isn't that much of an improvement.

[up]Hopefully not via CGI. A bodybuilding regimen or bulkier costume will do (Poccy is usually seen in armor anyways).

Thing is Apocalypse is supposed to be extremely tall, far too big for any human to play him. What we see in set pictures doesn't necessarily reflect how he will look on screen (including colors). The Scully Box and Hitler Cam can also do wonders.

So...

...more Quicksilver in next film?
