The news that Apocalypse will be in Bryan Singer's X-Men: Days of Future Past sequel was met with a widely positive response, but some fans are worried about how the director will go about bringing the iconic villain to the big screen. Is he going to look like his comic book counterpart or something entirely different? Either way, it sounds like it will be pretty intimidating! "I’ve seen a couple things," Oscar Isaac told MTV News at the National Board of Review Awards red carpet recently. "Scary s–t. Scary s–t… I’m going to bring [the X-Men] down to their knees. It’s amazing, I’m so excited about everything that’s going to happen." What do you guys think of these comments?

@Batmaniac I respect your opinion, and even if i not agree 100%, i think people talk to much about Civil War and Bvs, and forget Apocalypse. For me the 3 will be great

I would've preferred Javier Bardem, but Isaac is the next best thing. This movie is gonna be amazing. Just hope it's all the X-Men together as a team this time

@AlphaMasterFlex Hopefully they can figure out a way to make Loki the villain. We haven't seen much of him in Marvel movies either.

Hey remember a month before DOFP came out and everyone was bagging on 'Fox-Men' and how terrible Singer was? And then, hey, remember how once the movie came out and those people saying that seemed to have vanished and all we had were comments and articles praising the film.

My point here is this: stop blowing everything out of proportion if you aren't going to stick to your convictions once the movie comes out ...and then return MONTHS later when you know you aren't going to get chewed out as badly. People on this site have a huge problem with being GIGANTIC chicken shits.

So we actually get an epic fight scene with the team of X-Men? Heaven forbid.

I will admit that the future sequences in DOFP were what I've been wanting in the X-Men movies, but it still wasn't enough.

@Objectivelybiased

IM STILL RIGHT HERE AND XMEN DOFP WAS CRAP… YEAH I SAID CRAP! I WATCHED IT AGAIN AND IT REMINDED ME OF WHY I DIDNT LIKE IT. THE MOST LIKEABLE PART OF THE MOVIE INVOLVED A CAMEO CHARACTER, QUICK SILVER, AND THAT PART WAS THE BEST AND ONLY GOOD PART. CHARACTERS THOUGHTS IN XDOFP "LETS NOT KEEP THE FASTEST GUY AROUND TO ACCOMPLISH THIS MISSION EVEN THOUGHT HE DID THE HARDEST PART OF THEIR MISSION."
CRAP, sorry you asked where the haters were…
BTW, Singer is a pederass… Enjoy his thing in your favorite mutants butts!

Meh! Hated the last movie. Don't care about this franchise anymore. I think Isaac will be great, I've just lost all interest and wont waste my money on it.

Same thing for Transformers (2-future) and GI Joe.

If FF does really good, then I would reboot X-men in the same universe and style.

@SlickRick-Singer is a pederast really?

Strange, I do not seem to remember him being convicted of anything....
