Stewie Griffin said:No, you did not know that about the Emperor...Vader just refrences him and people show the fear in their faces and actions. It seems to me that you do not have the first clue about writing films, my friend. Apocolypse does not and should not be over explained, he is much more menacing as a figure in the background moving pawns around until he reveals himself...just like he is in the comics really.
thats true about apocalypse but people who dont really know much about him need to have a little info on him. as for the Emperor at least you knew he was out there doing something and that he was relevant at some point. i wouldnt expect somebody like sinister to be just like yeah i work for apocalypse. than everybody will including the x-men on screen will be like who.
