The train scene where they defend Jean is so sick. One of my favorite scenes of a comic book movie. Along with Night Crawler going savage on them. Gave me flashbacks to the opening of X2.

I like how this movie is set in the early 90's where Magneto goes from looking like Michael Fassbender to Ian Mckellen in just a few years when the original X-Men movie takes place.

One of the butterfly effects is a radically different skin care routine

@Jordacar 24 дні тому

But remember the original (along with X2 and X3) are set in the "not too distant future," so it's not 2000. I settled on 2007, but that's me. So Fass still has 15 years to transform.

Simon Kinberg might not be a good writer But you can bet that he's a great producer It was because of him that we got "First Class", "Deadpool" and "Logan" And not to mention "The Martian" too

@ytuser_3122 Місяць тому

I don’t like hiring a first time director for this, but better him than Bryan Singer.

@Dohsoda Місяць тому

Its shocking how poor the writing is in "Dark Phoenix", but he's the credited as the sole writer on the screenplay of "Days of Future Past". Not counting the story credits of course, of which there are two other writers, who worked on the screenplay for "First Class". Overall, "Dark Phoenix" was a sad end to the prequel series and the mainline movies in general.

@barney7822 29 днів тому

He also did a great job as director Instead of trying to replace Bryan Singer's style, like Brett Ratner in TLS, Kinberg was able to give the movie an identity of its own

@kazetoame Місяць тому

So, the original plan of this movie was to be even closer to the comic books and the animated series, even when that was scrapped, they still had the villains coming straight from the comic book storyline? Honestly, I think this movie gets too much shit, I do quite like this movie and I think Sophie did a good job as Jean.

@user-zf2ru4eq4w Місяць тому

And just like in the 97 reboot of the animated series; the X-Men have a telephone direct line to a government official. And having Dazzler in the movie is a callback to Dazzler being part of the dark Phoenix saga in the 90s cartoon run.

It was okay. Just kinda bland. I liked the X-Men working as a team but the whole story felt a bit disposable. The first half was too repetitive of Last Stand then the second half was underwhelming. I enjoyed the train fight but didn't realise that stuff would be the huge climax. It would have been far more interesting if they got cosmic with it like the first 15 mins implied they would.

If you watch this movie out of context with the rest of the "First Class" era, it totally slaps. Great acting, pacing, choreography. One of those flicks that I think got caught into a specific kind of fatigue. But holy hell is it fun.

In terms of the Deadpool 2 scene, I always assumed/applied the head canon that it was the aged up versions of the characters essentially in that cameo. Deadpool, however, wanted to see them as the younger versions so thats how he pictured them. Whether its a result of his insanity or the 4th wall breaking powers Deadpool is known to have, i cant actually say, but I personally believe most of his 4th wall breaking events are him just acting like hes in a movie or comic book.

What I like the most about the X-Men movies is the fact that they never tried to follow the MCU's formula or its tropes, especially after it became a trend They never relied on nostalgia, the tone always kept consistent, and they always focused on the present And Dark Phoenix kept that way They kept their sense of individuality. Even the score was different in each movie
