It’s a shame they couldn’t end on a high note, Logan still my favorite comic book movie

 

[Days of Future Piff]

@ the reviews so far. I really want the X-men to have great films, but Fox just doesn't get it. I can admit that X1, X2, First Class, Days of Future Past, and Logan are decent movies. But still, even those movies wasted a LOT of great characters and didn't truly live up to their potential. They DEFINITELY never came close to matching the greatness of the 90s cartoon or the best story arcs in the comic books.

The people running Fox really should have hit the brakes like

when Kinberg was confirmed as the director of the movie. You know, the same dude that wrote X3

What hurts the most is that the Dark Phoenix Saga is so goatworthy in the comics, but since Fox has (apparently) botched it twice, the MCU won't want to touch it.

You'd be better off reading the OG Dark Phoenix Saga in the comics or watching the 90s cartoon version, because we'll probably never see it done justice in live action at this rate.

Any ideas on which movies ending?

Captain Marvel maybe? Hard to guess really

Yeah man to me they put out some really great comic book movies like the ones you mentioned (X1, X2, First Class, Days of Future Past) & to me personally Logan is the best comic book movie. But they fukked up going back to Kinberg who already monumentally fukked up the the Phoenix Saga. I hope dude never gets near any comic book movies ever again, including New Mutants.

A nice, fair assessment of the film. Lack of emotional response, but nice comic book imagery and great performances. Better than Apocalypse.

For the love of God Marvel please keep the actors of prof x and magneto

"Decent" dont deserve full price

Could end up being a “Cult Classic”, you should see it for yourself and make your own judgement

 

[Norrin Radd]

General consensus seems to be "Meh"
