I'm always in for more X-Men movies but... Lilandra sucks. I don't see how the Shi'ar can fit within the Fox universe. And fuck no to Kinberg directing.
Oh well, all my hopes are on New Mutants anyway.

Fascinating how the mainline X-Men films have become the least interesting films in the X-Men universe.

Kinberg is too hit or miss of a writer. It could either be above average or hot garbage.

Yeah Magneto shouldn't be a villain in this. Enough with the change of heart.

It's like Fox is actively trying to make bad X-men movies
Why give this to the guy that gave us X3?

Which is confusing because we just got Logan.

I don't see how they can have Magneto be a bad guy again considering how Apocalypse ends with him pretty firmly on their side now

Magneto: But I killed all those homo sapiens, Charles. Doesn't that anger you?
Charles: Well, no. I've just come to your side is all. Call me... Wheels.
Missed opportunity to not have him fuck off with all that metal he'd already accumulated to build asteroid m

Well, this is very likely going to suck.

Wish they'd let the kids have their moment without forcing Mystique into everything.

Someone steals Magneto's baby that he also didn't know about

Maybe we should stop letting people make their directorial debut with $200 million films? Just maybe?

Too soon to do dark Phoenix

You're making way more sense than these movies deserve.
He'll be angry and resentful of humans again for no reason at the start of this movie, and just hope you forgot all the other movies.

It's horrible that I actually think Fox would do something like this.

This.... I get this feeling that this movie will kill the franchise

Lilandra, the villain in the Dark Phoenix movie?
...... okay?
Still kinda pissed they didn't portray the Hellfire Club right in First Class. It is something I would've loved to see in this movie (considering Dark Phoenix became Black Queen).
Though, if Chastain takes this role, I hope that means she's open to portraying adult Beverly Marsh in the second It movie. Someone brought it up to the director of that one and he liked that idea (especially since he worked with Chastain on Mama).

My bet is she won't even wear the makeup once this time. If they want her blue for a scene or two they'll just CGI it.
It's probably in the contract.

I mean it was confusing as fuck to see him in the middle of nowhere with a family in Apocalypse so maybe it'll be some other thing where he's back on his bullshit

To be fair, it's not that different from the comics. The satellites books have often been much more interesting than Uncanny ever since the 90s.

Truly the darkest timeline.
From the ashes of his villain, they'll build a better one.

Will Quicksilver be back? He gotta bond with his pops(comic retcons be damned)
They probably ain't gonna bother with Corsair.

wants to fuck an Asian grill.
He went from neutral to bad again in apocalypse in like 5 minutes.
Or maybe it will be like xmen 2 where he works with the xmen but then he suddenly realizes [insert plot device] can be used to achieve mutant world domination.

Don't like how Cyclop's visor looks like it's made out of aluminum foil, or that cheap chrome paint they'd put on action figures back in the day. The kind that scratches off and it's white plastic underneath.
You joke, but in comics originally Mystique was going to be Nightcrawler's father
Duane Cunningham

Actually, Claremont's original plan was to have Mystique turn out to be Nightcrawler's father (and Destiny his mother). The idea being that Mystique has functional sperm when shapeshifting into a man.
Unfortunately, the bosses wouldn't let him do it.
damn it Slay

I don't think you'll get this in a feature film:But no cast for the Hellfire club
People always skipped over the fact them seducing Jean is the reason the Phoenix gets a taste for pleasure, causing it to get off on destorying stars and shit
Y'know, they probably did use the same type of cheap chrome paint for his visor.Don't like how Cyclop's visor looks like it's made out of aluminum foil, or that cheap chrome paint they'd put on action figures back in the day. The kind that scratches off and it's white plastic underneath.
