Storm and Psylocke's outfits are worse...

I realize both are somewhat the minions dressed up by her megalomaniacal evil master, but that's still bad costuming.

Wanna bet they're wearing impractical heels?

Psylocke exists purely for her creators to masturbate over, so yes absolutely.
Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

Psylockes outfit is practically exactly what she wears in the comics from back when I collected them. I like it for that. Haven't seen Storm.

Doesn't change the fact that it's a stupid costume. Psychic assassin wears swimsuit and high heel boots? Outfit shows off tits and booty? Sure, let's rock with it.

It makes sense if it's Apocalypse making clothing choices for her, rather than her organically choosing a costume because no professional warrior should wear an outfit like that - even in demented comic book logic.

What's weird is Psylocke's current outfit is so much more fight/movie friendly...

Posted Image

But I guess they wanted to go with the skimpier more 80's one? I dunno. I like the above new comic one personally. Seems more apt for fighting?

Marvel may have decided it looks too Black Widow-y. As if the public can't keep two cat suits with different people in them apart and the sword wasn't a giveaway. Also, what Illy says.

Basically, any super hero/villain costume design that includes high heels should be ridiculed into oblivion.

It's FOX though.

What Illy says is fine for the comics, but this is the movie...so someone had to make the consious decision to outfit her in her old skimpy outfit form the 90's...was it Bryan Singer himself? Someone at FOX? I'm curious.

New trailer!



I am tentatively excited for this. I loved that they showed Apocalypse growing in size and he, going by the thumbnail, looks a bit less like an old man in a suit.

Who are the horsemen? From the trailer it seemed that Angel was a given. The other two I think were Horsemen were Magneto and Storm? Who's the fourth? Wolverine? Strike that it looks like it's psylocke.

The Horsemen are Archangel, Magneto, Storm, and Psylocke.

I like the trailer, but a part of me wonders if this will be as good as DOFP was. That's a high water mark in that series. Hopefully!

Um, I'd like to point out that Quicksilver is wearing a RUSH t-shirt.

Definitely looks great. Some of the writing sounds settled for "good enough" though, like Apocalypse's speech and X on Cerebro.
