    Poll Do you prefer long or short hair for Halle/Storm in XDoFP? (26 votes)

    Long White Hair 50%
    Short White Hair 54%

    The first time I saw Halle Berry with the long white hair in the first X-men movie, it really felt like she was really Storm and that Storm is real. But the next x-men movies came and Halle's hair started to get shorter and shorter until we get a short hair in X-men: days of Future Past. I didn't like her hair because it was short and even the action figures of a short-haired Storm doesn't look even good. She doesn't even look noticeable in the X-men DoFP poster.

    But some say it suits Halle. I know Halle looks good with a short hair too but she doesn't look like Storm.

    So I want to know if most of us prefer Halle with the short hair in X-men: DoFP or you prefer her having a long white hair?

    I didn't like either cut, but I just don't really like Halle as Storm. She's very bland and doesn't seem like a Goddess, she doesn't exude an aura of authority, charisma and power. Everything about her was very timid and muted. A combination of poor writing and not understanding the character in my opinion.I love the film, but I feel Jean, Scott and Ororo were shortchanged.

    Don't even get me started on Rogue....................I swear watching her on screen just infuriates me.

    @malachi_munroe: wait, the diamond form that MAGNETO WAS ABLE TO BREAK THROUGH WITHOUT FINDING HER NOW NONEXISTENT WEAK SPOT?! That diamond? That's why I'm mad. They were THAT MUCH OF A THREAT, because they could SKIN SHIFT??!! That's why they're bad?? Because they have a LESSER mutant's abilities??

    PREACH MAGE! *still trying to figure out why the hell storm did't create winds in the opposing direction*

    @rogueshadow: I agree wholeheartedly.

    However, visually, Halle lacks too much drama in her appearance, and flowing tresses would have helped that. The wig maker should have been fired, because beyonce, nicki, Ciara, and Kerry hilson don't keep their roots blonde, so wigs can be trained to adopt to their owner.

    Her bangs were hideous, and her x2 style was just annoyingly OLD

    @malachi_munroe: You can tell how badly they did Rogue because I completely forgot to mention her. Now that you mention Rogue though, I'd say that she actually got it the worst, she wasn't just changed from the comics, she was a completely different character in all but name.

    Oh, Emma, Iceman, Colossus and Kitty got it bad too, especially Colossus. There are more I'm forgetting.

    Yeah... I love the films, but a lot of major characters got screwed over big time.

    I hope they reboot at some point circa 2020 and get somebody new in to play her. Though to be honest, I'm not sure who in Hollywood could play her, maybe get an unknown. Kit Harington would be a good Wolverine though.

    It's simple, the whole thing was orchestrated by infidels who deserve to be cast into the pit and burned.

    @whitemage: LOL, I was fortunate enough to avoid ALL of the power piece videos, tv spots and featurettes before seeing the movie(and I think that helped to some degree). It was totally ridiculous that they decided to spoil the whole movie just so they could get more people in the theater to see it, when they knew all of the future characters had very VERY limited roles to begin with. I learned my lesson when they pulled the same stunt for X3's ad campaign. The viral ad campaign sites that i came across were actually pretty insightful about what went down in between the past to future timelines and how it led up to that point. What i find most disappointing about these viral sites are that none of the content in them are actually explored to any significant degree in the movie), I know you probably don't want to see anything more about the movie, but these were pretty cool and helped fill in some gaps before I went in to see it.

    http://www.25moments.com/#!/moments

    http://www.thebentbullet.com/#!/home

    http://www.trask-industries.com/#/about

    The first one goes over 25 moments throughout history that led to the apocalyptic future; the second one explores Magneto's imprisonment and their version of Kennedy's assassination conspiracy; and the last one explores the technological advancements of trask industries(none of which was explored in the movie). A lot of that content could have really expanded the quality of the movie and given it some much needed exposition. It should've definitely been around 3 hours...

    LMAO! at Jennifer Lawrence Mystique deciding to change her fighting style to Eddy Gordo's(I know all about Tekken :p). I also picked that up when i seen it the first time. It was definitely a massive step back from the First Class movie in terms of her appearance, but that may have been due to Jlaw complaining about the makeup process breaking her skin out or something(always some silly excuse). I think they decided to go with entirely new aesthetics and a body suit, and it really showed in this one. Rebecca's version was definitely the superior Mystique in terms of appearance, fighting abilities and being a capable and intelligent strategist.

    Also great points about Singer getting rid of the people he didn't work with before. I hadn't noticed that before but he definitely worked with the Beast Actor and only allowed for a cameo role for Havok that was rather utterly pointless. I didn't much care for Emma, but there definitely should've been a significant explanation for her death. She has diamond form and telepathy. Not easy to overcome someone that powerful, and should not have been thrown under the bus in a throwaway line. I liked Banshee, Tempest and Azazel. It would've been nice to see a flash back of their death. They talk a little bit about it on the bent bullet site.

    I still believe Halle was fine as Storm. It was the short hair and the limited role that wasn't good.

    @jhazzroucher: If she had kept her accent, I might've felt differently in certain areas. But anyone who looks at Storm's character history, and legitimately thinks "Halle Berry should play her!!" Might not actually be a proper fan

    @storm_calling: thanks for the viral links......if only they had been combined with the comic story for an awesome movie.....question: what are you thinking about xmen:apocalypse? I love tom hardy, but if he plays him, I'm screaming racism from the hills.

    Since it's a new movie, and a younger Storm, I think they will definitely go with long hair this time

    LOL! Knowing Singer and hollywood(look no further than the upcoming Exodus: Gods and Kings), I wouldn't put it past them.

    Loving the potential of X-men:Apocalypse, but every time I think about how Singer and Fox always squanders that potential I can never get myself excited for it. I'm happy they are finally moving away from Halle as Storm though, but knowing Singer is behind the recasting just doesn't sit well with me. I'll see how it goes of course, but my expectations are low.

    I heard he wanted to make the scope bigger and more of a "disaster" movie, and focus on the concept of mutants as gods. There's so much potential there for Storm with those key elements, but I doubt it'll be anything like we're hoping. lol

    They will make it all about Jlaw/Charles/Erik again and I just don't want to see a movie like that all over. If he were smart, he'd focus on the actual X-men for once, and give Storm, Jean and Cyclops a proper origin with an interesting team dynamic and personalities.
