Bit behind the 8-ball on this one, but just saw the trailer for X-Men: The New Mutants and... wtf? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qnb2ZdoxbbU The opening seemed generic X-Men shit but then it suddenly goes horror (and not very subtly, given the line where they claim that it's a haunted house rather than a hospital). Really not sure how to feel about that. Sure, I like horror and a lot of superhero movies have been getting stale but... wtf? They're trying to do the Demon Bear storyline: http://marvel.wikia.com/wiki/Demon_Bear_(Earth-616) No idea how close it's going to be to the actual comic story, but I assume they're going to go for an angle where you're led to suspect it's tied to Illyana and her demony magic side, only to have the twist be that it was Dani all along. Early New Mutants was pretty dark. It could potentially work as a horror franchise if done right (though whether or not it WILL be done right is another question entirely). Though this may all be moot, if the deal Disney and Fox have been discussing actually goes through, because if it does all of the X-Men rights will revert back to Marvel anyway, and odds are everything will get rebooted one way or another. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family <cite>ParanoidObsessive posted [p:891837361] in All Geek's...
