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.

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.

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.

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

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.

Anything that has Nightcrawler gets an automatic win for me. Feed me Kurt, I long for swashbuckle boy.

Live action Jean Grey has the potential to be as loved as Wanda if done right.

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.

3:34 the title in Turkiye was only Dark Phoenix and many people (general audience) went to the theaters without realising it was an X-Men installment.

I’ve also been rewatching all the X-Men films, but this one I never watched since it came out until last night, due to all the bad buzz about it. But I enjoyed actually it last night when I watched it. It wasn’t great, but also not as bad as people said it was on Twitter.

I watched this movie again recently and I like it way more now than I did when it first came out. Kinberg did a great job directing. Also that train fight scene is amazing for being a last minute reshoot.

Thank you for your service it’s a real sacrifice to watch this film more than once

Phoenix jean snap people away like thanos in this movie

Honestly I feel like Simon tried to do what was right by getting rid of extra plot lines to focus on Jean and Phoenix force but ultimately the studio was not interested in this leading to more films, and it killed it pretty hard

Its not the best X-Men movie but it was a lot better than last stand. Both flicks made the major mistake of skipping the Phoenix saga and going right into the dark Phoenix.

Not the worst x-men movie but the train car scene was not only one of the best fight scenes in any x-men movie but one of the best fight scenes in any comic book adaptation movie period .

@6:20 YES. This. I've been saying exactly this! 1000%

Hey, Marvel!, just do origin stories of popular X-Men i.e. Storm, Cyclops, Gambit, Jubilee, Jean Grey... then do an X-men movie kind of like... I don't know... "The Avengers Saga?"

Thanks for all this team does!! You guys and dolls are slayin it 🛡🗡

Little glitch at 16:24 . I’m a video editor myself so I love and appreciate what you guys do :)

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.

I really liked this movie. The train fight scene was AMAZING! I'm a little upset you didn't talk about it lol. Much love though.

Love this channel ong

Holy cow, never been this early. Loce all these videos :)

I’m glad they went for that train sequence instead of a space battle because that was one part of the movie that I actually thought was really cool!

It'd be so awesome for storm to be real good in live action

Love from Belgium 🇧🇪 ❤

I found Simon Kinberg's direction pretty solid He was able to give the movie an identity of its own, rather than trying to replicate Bryan Singer's direction Unlike Brett Ratner tried to do in The Last Stand

Waiting all week for this! Woohoo!

I love this movie for what it is!

I'm still quite confused about this film This is supposed to be set in 1992 And Xmen (2000) is supposed to be set in ~2003 Not only do they seem to age 30 years in 8 years, but also Jean and Mystique are dead?

Brilliant film.

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.

When Jean absorbs the “solar flare”, right before it's finished it is in the shape of a Phoenix also.

Force fields and movement of objects and things are considered Telekinetic. Telepathy has more to do with communication and mind reading (sometimes control).

I just saw this movie because I’m binge watching in prep for Deadpool. Best part of this movie was the train scene and the fact that the Phoenix force came from space like the comics. As well as the acting from Fassbender and Sophie Turner. Otherwise I did not like this movie. If I ever binge watch these movies again in a chronological order or anyway tbh I’m leaving this one out completely. Even if you use the whole the timeline was changed because of Days of Future past. It just felt rushed and like it was just to get another X-men movie out. Just my opinion but it really felt lack luster. As a stand alone not bad in its action, should’ve just been a clearly stated different timeline

damn that was suppose to be Selene? Never thought they would jubilee and random role like that.

16:23 ???? 😂

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.

I think you guys should break down the fantastic 4 movies

19:48 Deadpool and Wolverine would like a word with you

i always wondered about Mystique and Nightcrawler in the same movie and portrayed like they are... Mystique is his mom and in the movies they look like they are completely oblivious to that.. same with Rogue....

0:56 SKETCH REFRENCE???

the train scene isn't bad at all

Petition for them to finishing dazzlers song during the forest party.

I'm officially 37. I just found out I've been using "slaps" wrong. Well, not so much as using the word/phrase, but what I interpreted it to mean lol. I'm officially 37 and it does not "slap"

"Copains", depending on context can mean either "friends" or "boyfriends/girlfriends" which is hilarious since there was always a rumour there was something else going on with those two (and would become a thing in real life with actors Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen).

I personally think apocalypse was a little bit better than dark Phoenix

I'm curious what this film would've looked like if they had acc been allowed to go w/ their original plan & didn't hv so much studio intervention

Yay 😂❤

The movie doesn't make a lot of sense from a comic book perspective. The powers were cool, but it lacked respect for mainly all characters. I'd argue the only personality I'd save is Xavier's

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
