I don't remember her Psychic knives being actual physical things. did a wtf at first, for the blade actually damaging a car at all. Checking wiki, I guess she got an upgrade in 2000's. (and lost her telepathy at the same time) Then 2010 got both back. telepathic powers, telekinetic powers

In the Dark Angel saga (another Apocalypse-based series) she does in fact have both, and god damn Olivia Munn looks pretty much identical to that version, it's truly uncanny. The event runs throughout the "newer" version of Uncanny X-Force comprised of Wolverine, Deadpool, Fantomex, Psylocke, and Angel. If you're in to comics and haven't read it, you can go through all of it on Marvel Unlimited and it's a damn good read.

And it's really good as far as comics go

Nothing really new, although they do briefly show a scene that looks like Quicksilver pinned down to the floor of some fancy chamber, which would be the obligatory "this is why Quicksilver doesn't just do it all himself" scene.

Think he meant to post this one. And I'm pretty sure the "fancy chamber" is just X's school. Could be wrong.

Apoc's voice sounds better and his CGI was finished up. Oliva Munn looks born to play Psylocke, and Storm looks perfect as well.

Trailers look nicer and more complete (see also: BvS) when all the FX is complete and they can cut a better 2 minute preview together.

Oh well derp, yeah posted the wrong one. Dunno why google gave me a 3 month old trailer when I searched 'new apocalypse trailer'. I hadn't actually seen it which is why I thought it was the new one.

Everything looks like it's been worked on. The scene with Psylocke chopping through that car no longer looks like it was something a high school kid put together.

Is that supposed to be Alex Summers (Havok) at 1:59? Had no idea he was going to be in the movie.

NM, looked it up on IMDB, it is. That's cool.

My expectations for this movie were very very low. but this trailer actually looks pretty good.
Giant apocalypse looked great as well.

need to use the clip of all the missiles launching in some spider gifs.

I can't be the only one that cringes each time Jennifer Lawrence talks. She was passive in First Class, but it's been painful since DoFP.

It looks great, except for Ivan Goo. What were they thinking?

I'm with you. I might see this movie just because Apoc chokes the shit out of her.

Still not in love with the voice. Too bad they couldn't get Lee Pace(Ronan from GotG).

Aside from that everything really does look way better. And Nightcrawler and Archangel have me psyched. My optimism for this movie is much less guarded now.

Also Apocalypse is treated way better in this one, going on repeatedly about him being a God was the right way to handle it. First trailer was ho-hum about him. "Oh look another bad mutant for them to defeat". Now you get some sense of just what a force he really is.
