X-MEN APOCALYPSE (2016) BREAKDOWN! Easter Eggs & Details You Missed! | X-Men Rewatch

[@stoagymahalo5268]

honestly, the magneto scene with his daughter broke my heart and I couldn't stop crying out fear of my daughter. Why Fasbender became one my top actors from that moment.

I think Peter knew Magneto was his dad. That’s why he decided to break him out, after hearing who to break out from Logan. He was just too hesitant to straight up ask into his face at that point when he met Magneto

[@nandom07]

He didn't realize until he learned about Magnetos powers during the break out. He wanted to do it, initially, because it sounded fun.

[@alexanderdumas-]

Dark Phoenix makes this movie look like Citizen Kane

I won't say this movie is horrible. It just could have been sooooo much better.

It's re-watchable though.

[@rogerbordine7]

I give this movie a solid B. For reference, Days of Future Past is an A in my book, and Dark Phoenix is a C. But Apocalypse, for all its flaws, was very entertaining. Great soundtrack, solid acting, cool sequences including one standout not mentioned in this NR video: when Nightcrawler rescues Charles from the pyramid - REALLY cool VFX showing how Nightcrawler teleports. As horrible as Apocalypse’s costume and make-up were, they got Nightcrawler, Weapon-X Wolverine, Storm, Psylocke and many others near perfect. A fun and somehow re-watchable film.

When mentioning Nightcrawlers outfit in the theater scene you did correctly mention that it's similar to Michael Jackson's Thriller outfit, however it is also similar to Nightcrawler's own comics outfit, though he does get the comics outfit later in the movie as you mention as well. Also, while it's fairly recent and seemingly not all that liked Nightcrawler's parentage has changed a bit to be where Mystique essentially morphed into a male with Azazel's DNA to have Nightcrawler with Destiny.
