Hugh Jackman, a wonderful host, was kind enough to take us into a trailer for a special sneak peek of Ratner's X-Men Trailer and the people at Fox were so gracious and accomodating. He was as giddy as us to see it! And believe me, "Wolverine" in full costume, claws and all, basically stopping production and walking us through the set on our way to watch the trailer and him standing there experiencing it with us for the first time was just so awesome! We were all so blown away that they were kind enough to show it again.
The trailer shows so much content at such a quick pace that a frame by frame analysis will definately be a must.
Overlayed with a naration by Patrick Stewart the footage is set to a deep drum beat that puts all the action to rhythm.
We see so much including: Jean Gray with her Phoenix red hair, Juggernaut, Beast sitting at a boardroom table with a bunch of government officials, the X-Men in the X-Jet cockpit, Storm flying, Pyro, Angel with his wings, the Golden Gate Bridge being torn apart, Wolverine with sparks flying from his claws while plummeting down what looks like a metal wall, Jean Gray blowing a door off it's hinges, Rogue looking out a window, Cyclops yelling at the edge of a mountain and taking off his glasses and shooting his eye beam, Wolverine finding Cyclops' glasses floating and turning in the air, Wolverine smoking a cigar while fireballs are behind him, students at Xaviers school, a student using his hands to sly paper airplanes as he walks around the school, Magneto with a bunch of mutants in a forest including Juggernaut, large funeral scene with the X-Men in attendance, Jean Gray on a silver table lying down with some sort of helmet on looking confused when she wakes us, and Mystique standing on top of a table with someone sitting down below.
I know there was more but it all went by so fast and I was so excited to see it, that I can't remember everything. But you can see in it's entirety on Monday December 5th in HD on the Apple Trailer Website.
IT WAS AWESOME!!! Stay tuned to the IESB for further updates! |
