X-Men: Apocalypse: 10 Ways To Ensure It's The Best In The Series
9. More Quicksilver Please
When images first emerged of Evan Peters as Quicksilver everybody let out a collective chuckle. He looked like some weird hipster with a metal colored wig on. Some of us went online immediately and let our distain be heard via comic book movie forums and movie website comment boxes on sites like the one youre reading now. Hardy har har, everything was funny untilthe movie actually came out. All it took was one moment. In a standout, two-minute scene the young mutant recruit humorously thwarts some soldiers efforts to capture James McAvoys Charles Xavier, Hugh Jackmans Wolverine and Michael Fassbenders Magneto by flicking away their bullets and making them punch each other all to the smooth vocal stylings of Jim Croces Time in a Bottle. Can we have more of that please? Oh, there is just so much we need to know. In the movie its implied that Fassbenders Magneto is the young mutants father. Is it true? In interviews Fassbender has flat-out confirmed this, but we still need some cinematic confirmation. Is that little girl indeed Wanda Maximoff aka the Scarlet Witch? If not, who is she exactly? So many questions we need answered. Though, most importantly we need Quicksilver simply because hes the coolest character since Nighcrawler in X2. Speaking of which.
