X-Men: Dark Phoenix Official Thread (2018)

It's not like fans don't have valid gripes

Wolverine infatuation
Mystique role
Constant Charles vs Magneto
Incomprehensible timeline
Terrible Cyclops
Terrible Rogue
No varied villains from their extensive catalog
No build up to major stories
No good FF

And they had 20 years.

MCU had half the time and is 100x better.

pretty much sums up exactly how I feel.

But once like 2008 and after took place they should have had an epic competing universe.

They had
Galactus
FF
SS
Kang
Annihalis
Morlocks
Mauraders
Genosha
Shi'ar
Omega Red
A real Gambit/Angel/Apocalypse/Doom

I won't give them a pass.

Not like they can't do it.

Same studio that started Star Wars and Aliens.

good post. they could be all the way up to Franklin Richards having Galactus as his herald.

IMHO the team up flicks were Wolverine flicks.

He dominated the whole fukking show. Cyclops was damn near invisible.

I know he's popular but that shyt was ridiculous.

Ironman was the Wolverine of the MCU

Ironman was the Wolverine of the MCU

Not even close.

Name one solo pic from Fox not named Deadpool besides Wolverine.

20 years of non-stop Hugh Jackman was just ridiculous.

 

[R=G]

this shyt look wild boring

And Captain Marvel is cracking....lol

timeline
FC - 60s
DOFP - 70s
xxxxx - 80s
xxxxx2 or X3 part 2 - 90s (either name is OK)

I understand after the Batman & Robin fiasco Fox played it conservative.

But once like 2008 and after took place they should have had an epic competing universe.

They had
Galactus
FF
SS
Kang
Annihalis
Morlocks
Mauraders
Genosha
Shi'ar
Omega Red

technically they didn't start Star Wars.. they actually passed .... they just distributed for George

When the movie was in the theaters 20th Century Fox name was on it.

They blew the Marvel shyt and I can't wait for this merger.

has anyone gone back and watched First Class? i thought it was the best X group movie, but i have a feeling it hasn't aged well already

Wolverine has appeared in every X-Men flick except Deadpool. Can't say the same about Ironman.

I know. I worked at a theatre when TPM dropped and we couldn't keep posters.

The point I'm making is Fox has/had folks on staff that had/has the knowledge to make a dope interconnected universe with multiple moving pieces and characters (or who to hire) and couldn't do it.

my bad.. I read that wrong..

but isn't Simon whatever the FOX/Marvel version of Feige?

wasn't Simon and Singer the team ... once Singer left to Superman it went downhill...

they tried to interconnect with the Origins tagline but that lasted one movie and the second morphed into first Class...

wasn't being literal breh, but it's not a running joke about IM for nothing as well.
