Agree with you on all of these points. Psylocke was rather 1 dimensional and displayed no range whatsoever. Apoc looked like he was only 5' 8" in height when he should have been a towering 6' 2" or higher.

I think that in the case of some characters this is a must(not necessarily the exact size), is part of the character, for example Thor, he cannot be shorter or the same size of the rest of the Avengers, it would look really wierd.

The same can be said about Wolverine(is the other side of the coin).

Hugh Jackman towering over Halle Berry in the first three X-Men movies is just wrong.

it never bugged me that hugh jackman was so tall but having apoc that short totally took me out of it. hes supposed to be this huge, imposing, larger than life threat but instead he needs a step stool to look people in the eye

They really need to get these movies away from Bryan Singer. Whilst I thank him for getting these characters onto the big screen, his movies really are "meh...".

First Class is still my favourite X-men movie.

Step stool...hahaha. Well, Singer should have adjusted his scale in the same fashion as what was done in the Hobbit films.

There's no excuse for this oversight. They made plenty of money to fund the f/x here.
