Nothing, it was a mediocre cape flick, Disney made it cool to hate on it, so people are.
They hired a first-time director (oh wait, actually he isn't, he did reshoots on Fant4stic
FOX not knowing how to plan overarching stories that last more than one movie at a time, actors fedup with the roles, straying from source material, repeating whats been done already, letting woman power override mutant oppression theme, milking the name into the ground.
this is the worst capeshit movie i've seen since fantastic 4 probably. maybe even daredevil.
It felt like a stage play. Set 1, Set 2, Set 3. Always the same scale. The mutants seemed kinda weak, too. Magento? Gets immediately his ass handed to him. Blue monster? Knocked out by police forces. Xavier? Does he even have superpowers?
Xavier was doing some decent stuff against Magento's boys. Also Magneto getting btfo is fine considering how strong Jean actually is
Jean didnt suck my rock hard cock.
Also does Raven die in this movie? I only read the wiki plot summary
Yeah she tries to calm Jean down and Jean force pushes her into wooden spikes
>Xavier was doing some decent stuff against Magento's boys
Yeah, I didn't get that. So there was this psychic lady and Kurt, but for me to understand what was happening it was either too dark or convoluted.
I also read that Jean is responsible for killing her parents, which Xavier blurs for her. But then it turns out that her father is alive?
These capeshit movies that think there has to be a HUGE all-powerful threat.
How about a movie where a hero group fights a villain group again? That only happened in the first Xmen and First Class, right?
xmen movies are always weaker
They didn't draw enough parallels between Magneto and DRUMPF.
her father signed her up for a show with very violent and sexual content and that her messed her up for good
The fact she can't act to save her life probably doesn't help.
Isnt that the plot of the new Joker movie?
First Class was high caliber. Vaughn is skilled.
What went wrong is Bryan Singer got #MeToo’d, so we’re left with some guy who’s only ever directed Fant4stic reshoots. We’ve known for ages it would be a mess - this one had extensive reshoots as well and the whole production has been a disaster. However, I still probably would’ve seen it free with my AMC A-List, but the cringe feminism clip swiftly eliminated any desire to do so
>xmen movies are always weaker
Weaker than what? Logan, DoFP, X2, and even the Deadpool flicks are easily better than 95% of the MCU, everything DC’s put out since after BvS, and everything Sony’s put out after Spidey 2. It was actually one of the better superhero franchises all things considered
itt: triggered incels upset over girls saving the day
this movie was fine. one of the best xmen movies in recent history
Literally nobody wanted this, after Logan.
>We’ve known for ages it would be a mess
it wasn't though. It's easily more put together than fant4stic or apocalypse. You haven't even seen it, you're just parroting like a faggot.
Sophie Turner is a terrible actress
Real talk faggots
is this the first X-Men movie in 20 years without any sign of Huge "Wolverine" Jackedman, anywhere?
Correct. No cameo, no picture, not even mentioned, completely absent.
that was my biggest takeaway, her and jennifer lawrence are just awful in every scene they're in... and they're in a lot.
Well that's it then, the makers of Dark Phoenix have no one to blame but themselves, might as well cut their losses and abort New Mutants
>wrong
it's literally better than most MCU shit you fucking Disney Muppet
I literally said in my post that I haven’t seen it and won’t because of the cringey X-WOMAN!!1! clip they chose to market it with
It’s a mess in every sense, the worst reviewed film in the series, almost certainly the lowest grossing, and a completely embarrassing faceplant as a swan song for a storied franchise. You’re the faggot for watching this shit, bro. Literally giving money straight to pro-abortion activists, cringey feminists, and Disney
I didn't even see the movie. My opinion is based solely on watching the trailer and some short scenes on YouTube. She lacks any sort of expression and just isn't convincing. How you can be so bad when you've been acting on a professional level for over 8 years is beyond me
dude NOBODY wanted to be in this movie, that's literally how every actor acts in this movie (according to several reports, I havent scene it yet)
Disney crashed this movie to make way for MCU X-Men
its basically Cpt.Marvel. in the same universe and only 1 month apart
>What went wrong?
Best part of watching the cam version are the 1xbet commercials, that shit is kino as fuck.
Imagine putting hours and hours in setbuilding, CGI, costumes and makeup just for the actors to fuck it all up because they don't feel like shooting the movie
Aging like milk
>it didn’t limbo under the lowest bar imaginable!
Who cares?
yea that does suck, but isn't that the director's fault in the end?
Men BTFO
Absolutely nothing. The hate is overblown because people need an outlet to secretly vent their utter disappointment towards Avengers: Endgame. Bashing Dark Phoenix allows them the opportunity of still being hip to the pop culture consensus (which is MCU = Good, Fox X-Men = Bad) while also letting off some fanboy steam.
It doesn’t help that the film’s production mishaps were already known by the public, fueling the unnecessary hate fire. Also the unwarranted hate towards X-Men: The Last Stand is still fresh in people’s minds for some reason, even though Thor: The Dark World is without a doubt more cinematically offensive than some serviceable 2006 Brett Ratner popcorn fare.
>Women are always saving the men. We should be called X-women, not X-men
It's not like they actually had that dialogue in the movie, right? R-r-r-right?!?!
Is the cam version out
yes
The new wrinkle where the notification pops up and they're watching the movie on their device while betting on 1xbet is pure kino.
Apparently using the same idea and writing as the already terrible X3 was a bad move.
Who knew.
She sucked the right dick probably along with Emilia Clarke.
>bring in chief architect from such gems as the Last Stand and Fant4stic
>bunch of actors who could not give a shit anymore, seriously if you thought Jlaw was phoning in the last movie you haven't seen shit yet
>wonder why the product is shit
Sophie Turner was more boring than /sthg/ Gaydow posting.
Actually, less boring.
Holy crap are those test results real? Poor guys lol.
>people made millions off this piece of shit
they even put the writer for X3 in charge of writing and directing Dark Phoenix
we all knew how this was going to end
>bring in chief architect from such gems as the Last Stand and Fant4stic
How the fuck does that guy still get work?
>set in 92
>magneto would be like 60 by now
>looks like hes 35
so he goes from 35 to elderly ian mckellen in 7 years
>I literally said in my post that I haven’t seen it
I literally just said that you haven't seen it, you're calling it a mess and it's not. BvS was a mess, this wasn't. Why do you care this much about a movie you haven't seen? Why you even putting this much energy into it? Why you care about abortions? Not like you ever have sex to worry about your babies being aborted.
jews in hollywood fall upwards
>set in 92
>magneto would be like 60 by now
>looks like hes 35
sounds like Tom Cruise, I guess it's possible after all
>she told Charles Xavier, who gave up his ability to walk to save humanity, not once but twice
Xavier literally had to stop Raven from doing stupid shit, or else it'd end humanity. What a fucking stupid ass quote.
Friendly reminder that First Class, DoFP, Apocalypse and Dark Phoenix have about 10 years inbetween EACH movie.
Xavier, Magneto and Raven are at least 60 years old.
Nothing went right on Fox's X-Men
Even in the last movie Dark Phoenix the X-Men and villains and even Magneto never wear any costumes
It's a universe scared to be seen as a universe of comics
It was cowardly productions
This. X-Men has had 4 different "final" films. Nobody cares anymore
Simon Kinberg somehow being allowed to run the franchise after Singer got thrown out on his ass. Apocalypse should've been the finish after being such a letdown.
They even made Quicksilver get knocked out early for the rest of the movie, because he is so OP that he takes away most of the challenge.
I hear a lot of hate towards this but I'm a pretty laid back guy when it comes to most shit i just like watching movies, if I just take the movie for what it is will I still enjoy it? Or is it actually like black panther bad
Honestly, as cool as all the Quicksilver scenes are(yeah I know, im leddit), his overpoweredness is just dumb at this point. They randomly have to ditch him during days of future past, or else the movie wouldve been done with no conflict, and their reason is so badly made up. Even if Ultron's quicksilver was kinda shit, at least he was nerfed to the point where he's still very useful, but not stupidly overpower. Like they can actually guess anticipate his move and knock him out.
dark phoenix more like dark flopenix
Forced females is what went wrong.
X-woman LKMFAO
It's mediocre, but if you've tolerated Sophie and JLaw's acting in the past, it's just as tolerable this time. There really aren't any WTF is this shit moments. Just not a masterpiece.
>Its time to go darker folks
It really isnt tho, Logan and Deadpool works for that genre. But a lot of x-men, especially if merged with the MCU will probably suffer from an R rating. There are certain stories that could be great with an R rating, like mentioned, Logan, Deadpool, Thor, perhaps Hulk.
Its not a bad movie just a boring movie that does 70% of what the The Last Stand did, but with forced aliens and space shit.
The worse thing about it is that besides Professor X and Mags, you dont give a shit about anyone. So its not even better than The Last Stand.
>It's time to get darker
For fucks sake no
X-Men in the MCU will become another generic banter comedy with absolutely no pathos or thought behind it. Feige will make sure of that.
X-FOLK
people offended by this act like x-force, Excalibur, x-factor and new mutants didn't go with gender neutral names. The comics were on top of this
cringe
Cope Jacob
based
>we need to rip off someone for the first 10 mins sequence of them going to space
>lets rip off Michael Bay
So glad I pirated this shit.
MAGNET MAN BAD
Funny you say that Jacob, when you fill up numerous threads in /sthg/ with your sonic characters hypno posting. But you know what's even more boring? Your shitty ass Twitter profile you use to badger tumblr artists for more flattenting pics.
post more gaydow
Forgot my mandatory shadow pic
they'll probably just hand it to the Russos since they're the only competent ones that can handle team movies.
>the cringe feminism clip
WHICH ONE IS THIS
Even then, I don't think it'll be as good. They've done some impressive shit for the MCU, but I don't think they could make something as good as X2 or DOFP.
>Professor, please sit
Not MCU killed:
>DCU
>Shazam
>Alita
>Godzilla
Being a shit movie + also not MCU killed:
>Fantastic Four
>Dark Phoenix
Those movies are shit, bro.
I LOVED the last three movies but this looks like shit. To be honest it never had a chance. Simon Kinberg's is a hack screenwriter who fucked up X-Men 3 and the studio said "HEY, let's get the asshole who wrote that fucking trash to not only write but also Direct a rehash of the exact same material that he fucked up the last time!". It's clear that he was out of his depth, especially with making a 200 million dollar visual FX extravaganza as his Directorial debut, and explains the massive reshoots that took place which delayed the project. Then there was Disney's purchase of Fox which laid this by the wayside since we know Marvel wants to reboot X-Men into the MCU in the near future and no one had two fucks to give about how this turned out. I MIGHT have seen it if not for two things. ONE: Jessica Chastain who I can't fucking stand the sight of because she looks like a manfaced sneering unmitigated world class fucking cunt and then TWO: This.... youtu.be
Yeah.....you can fuck right off and I don't need to hear feminist propaganda from a casting couch cum dumpster. HEY, since SJW's are obsessed with shoving trannies and faggots into every corner of entertainment, how about changing this franchise's name to EX-MEN since GAYNIGGERS FROM OUTER SPACE is already taken!!!FACT!!! youtu.be
Nothing, it was fine. Mouse shills are faggots.
Lol fucking nice.
What's the pathos or thought behind X-Men under Fox?
>Professor, please sit
>...oh, I guess that goes without saying huh
>*laughter track*
This is the future that awaits this franchise under MCU
Can't she speak more than one sentence without fucking up the accent?
>speaks for like 4-5 words with American accent
>afterwards just weird stupid oi luv britbong accent
>one more franchise gets #metoo'd
>literally have sex
Kill yourself fucking faggot
Lmao she is so awful looking
I saw it this morning and I still can't believe someone thought that line was a good idea.
This.
Did people really think that homopedo was going to do a good job this time after fucking up this arc so spectacularly on the heels of kino X2?
It doesn't help that EVERYONE knows this arc, and they didn't use that to their advantage by putting a clever spin on it.
This man is correct.
Infinity War
There was an implication but my expectations were subverted
DoFP and Logan are better than any avengershit
I'm glad Mystic and JLaw career's over
It all started with Xmen The Last Stand, then Shitpool, then the return of Ivan Ooze, then this shit bird...
It was literally destined to fucking fail.
>What went wrong?
They should have made Dafne Keeno instead.
X-Xer
only positives from this 'film' were tons of closeups on Sansa's mouth which led to the inevitable blowjob visualizing and a nice lil bondage/restraint type of scene towards the end.
Writers man, idk what's going on but talentless people are getting jobs ruining films and shows.
I apologize for that.
Nothing but convoluted shit but the faggot you’re replying too thinks anything that isn't muh grim dark is bad because le leddit.
I can’t wait for the X-Men to quip for 2 hours just piss off cuckbois like him.
>lets show the point of view that Magneto is good and Charles is evil
Literally nothing. Fuck Disney
This is the problem...
Comic book movies have gone through 3 major shits over the past 20 years.
There was the "Phantom Menace" era where you had comic book movies as big dumb standalone blockbusters like Spiderman, Daredevil and Blade. This really is just a repeat of comic books being the summer movie trend like they were after Batman in '89 and Superman in '78.
In 2005, you had the Nolan era where comic book movies finally proved the genre had some artistic legitimacy outside of trying to make money.
At the same time you have the Marvel era of a cinematic universe.
Here's Xmen's problem... it is stuck in the Phantom Menace era that we've moved past more than a decade ago. Big dumb blockbusters with big dumb sequels. The people making these films do not understand the conceit of a "cinematic" universe and they certainly don't have artistic legitimacy outside of making a quick buck. If Xmen really embraced the modern era, it would have set up the Pheonix saga properly - this is a story arc that should take place over multiple movies. It's not a standalone story. FOX should have cut the cord and rebooted years ago. This is also why NO ONE is talking about Deadpool today - it's still stuck in the Phantom Menace era.
terrible acting (from every actor/actress, no exceptions), x-men as a whole didn't do shit to resolve the main plot problem, it's literally just phoenix deciding to use her new power and literally turning the bad aliens (who were extremely boring antagonists) into ash
and like this fellow says
it did seem very much like a play, this might be due to how it was shot
also, regardless of the volume of certain parts of the movie, it was just flat out boring
not sure if it's worth noting but I saw it in 3d so maybe my opinion isn't worth anything
litearlly no one gives a shit about xmen
Give it another four years since they can't resist a 2023 release date for an X-23 movie featuring teenage angst Laura.
