X-Men: Apocalypse - 8 Ways The New Trailer Killed Your Anticipation
7. Apocalypse's New Voice Is A Weird Mess
What the hell is going on with Apocalypse's voice? Every time we hear Oscar Isaac uttering a line, his voice sounds completely different. In the previous trailers, it had a good, almost campy quality to it... weird, but entirely suitable. Now, it sounds like it's being remixed as he's saying every line - every single dialogue cue in the trailer has Apocalypse adopting a different voice. Why have they messed with this in the editing? Who decided that Apocalypse should be incoherent? If you weren't sure about this particularly divisive villain's voice before you heard it in this trailer, chances are you sure as hell won't be in favour of it now. This could have all the makings of a Bane-sized controversy, for sure: get ready for the backlash, people.
