Now that game night is over, over half a bottle is down, and I& #39;ve successfully trolled my Sufjan mutuals - I think it& #39;s time for Dark Phoenix. https://twitter.com/a_benjamin/status/1245819964612915202">https://twitter.com/a_benjami...
Before I start - I& #39;m a life long X-Men fan who has mostly loved the movies but, like many, couldn& #39;t bring myself to watch this after the train wreck that was "Apocalypse" and, besides, what was the point after "Logan" anyway.
While I loved "Days of Future Past" this iteration has largely been a mess top to bottom. Except Quicksilver, somehow.
And Magneto, of course. I can& #39;t be too mad about a series that gave us this gif.

Can& #39;t really remember anything about the last one (aside from it being bad and somehow screwing up Psylocke) so I feel like I& #39;m going in blind in terms of the team. Sansa is Jean I know but... Storm& #39;s there right? Maybe Beast. Probably Mystique for some godawful reason.
Already lost a follower. This bodes well. On with the show.
I feel like I& #39;d be a *little* more upset that I& #39;d killed my parents but, then again, is be pretty psyched that I had super powers too.
So they& #39;re... government agents now?
THEY GAVE SCOTT A SPECIAL RIG TO SHOOT LASERS FROM THE BLACKBIRD
These costumes look extremely cheap...
Oh my God the x-women line is real. Wowowow.
It& #39;s honestly impressive how little fox ever understood these characters.
Why in the world would you have Beast& #39;s power able to be turned off and take away at least half of what makes him interesting??

DAZZLER!!! OH MY GOD!!! NO MATTER WHAT ELSE HAPPENS I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!
Excuse me for soy facing there.
Getting the impression it& #39;s not very well written.
"She& #39;s POWERFUL"
"How do you mean?"
"I DONT KNOW THERES NO TIME ON TO THE NEXT SET PIECE"

For all the faults of "The Last Stand" I do remember the fight scene in the neighborhood where Xavier does was pretty cool.
Plus "I& #39;m the juggernaut bitch!& #39;
Remember that? A simpler time.

Why doesn& #39;t Xavier get a shitty costume? Rude tbh.
Can we stop tossing cars upside down in action movies please?
You& #39;re free now, Mystique. Your confused character arc has come to its pointless conclusion.
45 minutes in and I think Storm has had one line.
Nightcrawler maybe 3.
Absurd.

If Disney is gonna take over the world we better fucking get the Shi& #39;ar one day.
What is with Fox& #39;s obsession with having large groups of random mutants with undefined powers not based on any established character if not disdain for its audience?
That little fight over a helicopter was suuuuuuper lame.
