This is a DC comics joke obviously, but still apt in this case

No no no. The scale only rises from this movie. He has aspirations to destroy the solar system! Then the next movie with be the about the stake of galaxy. And so forth.

Ok ok ok ok. So listen, at least Sinister brings down the scale a little bit right? He’s never really been interested in world destruction so much as fucking with the Summers family.

And they’ll fuck him up.

X1 and X2 were the height of my X-citement for X-themed movies. Once X3 came out, with the lame ass Professor X after credits ending, I lost my love for the mutant movies....but I could still tolerate them

wolverine Origins’ Deadpool turned it to hatred. It’s softened since, but...I’m still not convinced Fox

You just described how I feel to a tee. I think part of it is while these X-Men movies all started happened, the MCU was built. For me, Avengers, Ant-Man, GOTG, and all of the Captain America movies are light years ahead of these X-Men movies. Their costumes are much closer, the actors are better, etc. I’m just burned

I’m right there with you. I haven’t been able to give any xmen movie, except maybe 1st Class, above a 3/5. Maybe if they built Apocalypse over two or three movies it would be better. Same with DOFP. Give the characters some room to grow. I’d love to see any xmen group given an hbo or netflix show. Even Hulu’s Awesomes

The X-Men were my gateway to comic books. I obsessively bought every satellite title for years upon years, and still have a deep and embarrassing amount of love for certain characters (see: most of Warren Ellis’s run on Excalibur).

I was going to go with ‘boredom’, or ‘potential viewer apathy’, but I like your answer better.

It turns out Jimmy Olsen is going to be retconned into Solomon Grundy, and killed in the first 10 minutes of the next movie.

The villain of the Justice League movie is Zack Snyder

I always think Singers’ movies are kinda lame. Since the first x-men we always get the same PG-13-bloodless-scene of Wolverine tearing through a lot of people.

Nightcrawler kicking ass in the WH is still one of the best openers for a superhero film.

After how comics accurate Deadpool was and how fun Civil War was I just can’t muster any enthusiasm for Bryan Singer’s take on the Xmen anymore.
