Spoilers, but I guess we have those already.

[kallanda_lee]

I hated that storyline. Fassbender acted awesomely given the material he was given, bet blegh.

I hated that a) nobody gave a shit about comic book canon and characters' backgrounds and b) the wife and kid were actually decent characters that were clearly made for the sole purpose of being fridged.

[(Anonymous)]

Probably because it's his actual canon background.

[sparrow_lately]

Wait I didn't see the movie--did they work in the Quicksilver is his son then? Or no?

/not a huge X-Men person. I know I know I'm a bad Gay

[(Anonymous)]

They worked in Magda and Anya, though they inexplicably changed Anya's name.

[sparrow_lately]

Naturally?

I stg it doesn't matter what studio, if it's a Marvel movie at least one completely inexplicable choice has to be made

SPOILERS

[toshi_hakari]

Yes, it is mentioned and Quicksilver thinks about telling Magneto that he's his son but is too scared to do it in the end. But there's the prospect of ~maybe in the future I'll tell him~

[nightscale]

It's part of his comic background so I'm not surprised they put it in, I just think that they'd have been better off having it happen earlier in his life rather than so late?

Idk, I didn't hate his family but I knew they were going to end up dying so it was hard to really get invested in that part if the story.

[elaminator]

Haven't seen the film yet and I know this was part of Erik's comic background, but when I heard about this I was kind of disappointed. Why give him a wife and kids and kill them when Erik's life is already tragic enough? (Or why not make this have happened earlier in his life, and just add flashbacks? I'm confused as to when this movie is set.)

Plus, given how hard I ship Charles and Erik, I just...don't feel like I could get invested. The films have built up that relationship too much. (Not saying I think it's canon or anything, I just would've been fine without the added romance.)

I imagine Fassy did a good job with it, but meh.

Maybe I'll change my mind once I see it.

[nonnymouscawitz]

Because this is a comic book movie and sometimes they like to pretend they read the comics. If they throw in little stuff like this, comic fans get to go 'Hey it's that thing that happened!'

I have no idea why they changed the name, though.

[(Anonymous)]

I was more focused on how a guy holding a bow half-drawn managed to send an arrow through two people...

And the part where like seven million people got killed and no-one seemed to notice.

[fishnchips]

I thought the whole "You killed a ton of people but who cares, we still love you" was especially amusing in lights of Civil War.

[(Anonymous)]

From a person who acctually lives in Poland: the whole bow thing was unintentionally hillarious in our eyes (like that era's communist police in a small town would ever be so effective). But to be honest every scene set in Poland was unintentionally funny, even Auschwitz one, because it is not some abandoned landmark and hasn't been for decades, it is a museum, so I half expected some baffled class of elementary school children to be standing on the sidelines, gazing at the weird people... Nothing really makes much sense in this film, including their attempt to remove all people from all explosions, so that we don't see the collateral damage - it just made it all weird.

[ariakas]

Hahaha oh man as soon as they showed up I turned to the person I was watching it with and was like "...so, how long before they get fridged for his manpain?"

Turns out like 15 minutes. Maybe five minutes of screen time.

Come on writers, be better.

[(Anonymous)]

i mean its direct from the comics.
i wish they hadn't died to be honest, but then how would he get all mixed up in the main action. there had to be SOMETHING that could have done it.
i thought it was cool that he got over his human hate enough that he loved a human woman, and told the truth about who he was to her, and they had a kid, i did like that it seemed like he was tRYING to just be a good normal man and have the family life that had been stolen from him before.

[(Anonymous)]

It would have made sense without it, really...? What reason would he have to kill millions of people and be ready to bring forth the apocalypse suddenly? He went away after last film, 10 years have past, we have to either assume he's been lying low and doing other stuff or he's been for the last ten years the most ineffective "terrorist" ever who apparently had no plan whatsoever and couldn't do anything substantial before Apocalypse came along... Don't get me wrong - I hated the whole thing(let's give him wife and daughter to kill them to give him motivation to go murderous on humans again), it was awful and lazy as fuck, but they did it to put him again on the "evil" side (they would have done it with mental posession, if they had to - I still don't even get why Apocalypse needed for random people if he was so much more powerful than them - it would remove all moral ambiguity/Erik's culpability from teh story, but it's not like many people in this movie care that he basically caused the death of millions, as long as he has "some good in him"...)

/Btw, full dicslosure; I will never be able to be affected by the storyline with his wife, daughter and cosy life in Poland, because everybody's accents were so off that all the cinema in Poland was laughing all way through everything, including the most traumatic moments. Poor Fassbender did his best, but it was totally wasted, because even the "extras" Polish had everybody giggling madly (they should have dubbed them, really). It coloured my impression of the whole movie - I watched it with zero seriousness.
