From the writer of X3, Apocalypse and Fan4stic? It will take a miracle.
Lol same here reallyNow Spiderman 3 I still have some fondness for tbh, though admittedly it's all purely running on the love I have for the black suit lol
Lol same here really
It was only when I got older that I came to appreciate 3 as a comedy
Simon Kinsberg fails upward
NO X-Men film except Logan (and MAYBE X2) holds up on repeat viewings.
Hell, I remember a lot of people actually liking The Last Stand the first time they saw it...
Because they think since Logan was a grounded success then that means anything Fox produces with the "grounded" buzzword also means it will be.Two of the most out there X-Franchise stories, Demon Bear Saga and Dark Phoenix Saga...
Are getting "grounded" takes. Again in Dark Phoenix.
Despite not working last time. By the same people that didn't make it work last time.
And yet Logan is being brought up to defend this? Why? It has nothing to do with this. There is no Wolverine story arc worth adapting that goes into anywhere near the same territory as those two.
"[We must] find a way to ground it so it's not too intergalactic."
Meanwhile, FUCKING INFINITY WAR AND GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXYA quick reminder: the writer and director of this film, who also wrote X-Men: The Last Stand, Fantastic Four 2015 and X-Men Apocalypse said the following quote about this film:

Kinsberg, just make a comedy and leave.

I don't understand how these people get work every time. It's like with the Scott Buck dude.A quick reminder: the writer and director of this film, who also wrote X-Men: The Last Stand, Fantastic Four 2015 and X-Men Apocalypse said the following quote about this film:
No, you wouldn't want the Dark Phoenix Saga to be too intergalactic.

Kinsberg, just make a comedy and leave.
It's honestly bewildering at this point.
We've seen films like Guardians of the Galaxy and Ant-Man release to acceptance from mainstream audiences and critical acclaim. Infinity War did the absolute impossible and ended up being far more of a space adventure than many people guessed.
How is any studio still afraid to be a damn comic book at this point?
Marvel plays it safe with the MCU, and I don't like their formulaic 3 act approach filled with funny situations and last acts' CGI-fests. MCU's villains lack characterization for the most part, and almost all of them are inherently evil, though I'm yet to see the Infinity War.

Deadpool exists on his own.Yeah let's pretend Logan, DoFP, X2, and both Deadpools aren't great
Just saw it on HBO last weekend and still thought it was great. Only thing that's aged about it are the costumes and some of the effectsI swear people haven't seen X2 in years, that film doesn't hold up really.
Especially to todays comic book movies.
I'm calling it. This is gonna be the worst X-related movie. Even worse than X3 and Wolverine: Origins.
Trank Fantastic Four levels of bad.
This bombing means Marvel won't touch the phoenix storyline for YEARS.

It's not a 1 movie storyline. If they do touch it, I hope they get that rightThis bombing means Marvel won't touch the phoenix storyline for YEARS.
I mean, it would be great if they could pull it off but we've spent very little time with this new generation Jean Grey and what we got in Apocalypse was paltry. Getting angry and going 100% evil very quickly seems pretty likely, given that a movie called Dark Phoenix is probably pretty committed towards getting the Dark Phoenix out to wreck stuff as soon as possible, regardless of what they want to say in an interview.I don't see anything in the OP that sounds like a bad thing.
Seeing Jean's transformation into Dark Phoenix as a more emotional tale of a mental health problem that she is battling with sounds awesome. Instead of just getting angry and suddenly becoming 100% evil, we'll see her wrestling with the changes she's going through and eventually completely losing herself to the Dark Phoenix.
it's great
I mean, the guy directing and writing this is the same guy who wrote X3.
Kinberg also produced that and was co-writer on it.
the fuck is wrong with "grounded"? Logan was grounded. You one of those types that needs gratuitous cg, jokes and colors?

Yes, but has anyone ever done this before? Getting a second shot at an adaptation and doubling down on the previous fuck ups? Shit is unreal.
These people always fall upwards, just like Trump. Has to be something with connections or whatever.Yes, but has anyone ever done this before? Getting a second shot at an adaptation and doubling down on the previous fuck ups? Shit is unreal.
Grounded with Dark Pheonix...... They should be in space at this point.
