X-Men: Days of Future Past

It is an objective fact Superman was more marketed and more widely known than the marvel heroes we discussed.

More marketed? Thor had the best marketing possible by being in The Avengers.

Yes Superman is more widely known. Why? Because he's a more successful character. Keep crying.

Hulk wasn't an exceptional movie but neither was Man of Steel hence the reason it fell below expectations IMO.

Yes IYO!!!! But OBJECTIVE BOX OFFICE states that Only HULK flopped, not MOS.

Box office shows MOS > THOR >> TIH.

And guess what? TIH has always been more famous than THOR! So quit you BS excuses. Box Office tells us everything 😆

The stips were posted a year ago. The day of you back down when you've known for a year. I'll rub this in your face forever.

And I posted how I wanted it a year ago. But you backed down, because you know very well Skywalker >> Khan.

Yes, it is hence their jumping into the justice league. They are feeling the pressure since marvel is just raking in the profits.

I am rather objective to a fault.

Now please stop being so you.

Superman is more widely known is am glad to hear you concede the point.

I never said hulk was a resounding success it wasn't that great. But marvel has produced great movies since in avengers.

You refused to accept the stipulations I held in place for a year the day of. I posted the link for all to see you were made fully aware. You backed down.

😂

If MoS was an amazing movie, it would have made buttloads more money.

The reason Hulk and Superman didn't live up to expectations, despite audience familiarity with them, was because of their low quality. The consensus considered them bad movies, and through word of mouth and online reviews the new audiences were disenchanted with the movies. Also, they lost out on repeat viewings.

That's not what I meant with that statement.

The point I was conveying addressed quan's Marvel bias about how their franchise were trailblazers even though Xmen and Spiderman are the ones that kicked off the superhero genre in the early 2000's. Furthermore, I addressed quan's use of box office numbers by bringing up that Hulk made the least amount of money out of all the MCU flicks: also considering it came out the same year as IM that's a bit disappointing.

Also, now that Fox's has made a solid Xmen film with a superb cast, quan's trying to save face by linking the franchise to Marvel comics in general rather than just admit that Fox did something just as good(if not better) than Disney.

Avengers is superior to any xmen film to date IMO. It will also make more money when all is said and done.

Its nice of you to have that opinion. Nonetheless Fox put out something just as good as Marvel(Disney) and you don't want to admit that for some reason even though you were fawning over QS a few days ago.

TBH, I think DOFP had better writing in terms of dialogue and character depth.

Avengers is miles ahead in capturing the spirit of the lore, though. It's arguably the best superhero movie ever made because of that.

I finally saw this today with the family. The first half of the movie I thought was awesome and I was wondering if it was going to be maybe my favorite comic movie, but then something happened and it lost me with the pacing. Too much storyline and not enough action maybe? Who knows. The Quicksilver scene in the kitchen was pure cinematic magic. All in all it was a good movie, just not great for me.

I would like to add one thing though. I'm really sick of Magneto. There's been 5 X-Men movies now and he's been in all of them. Enough is enough.

Blasphemy!

Wolverine's an actual X-man.

Magneto is their main antagonist. Sick of seeing him, too. It causes the writers to focus too much on him and Xavier. But, since he's played by a popular actor, we'll be seeing him in Apocalypse.

Wolverine should be in it; he's a big enough part of the lore AND he brings in money.

That said, his role should better reflect his role in the comics. He's not the leader, he's not the guy that rallies the team. He's the cool guy with the cigar and the dark past and the boner for Jean even though he can't actually win her over.

A team of four or five X-Men would be the sweet spot imo. Would give everyone a chance to shine, and there's plenty of diversity in the X-Men lore.

Well you can see how old McKellan is getting.
Magneto at 75 doesn't look too intimidating on screen so maybe he'll do the wise thing & bow down from more Xmen movies.

¿What spirit? is a famaly movie full of snarky characters without a compelling arc, the main team isnt even the original from the comics.
Not to mention the mediocre direction, the visuals looked cheap and amateur, not diferent from a direct to tv movie project (heck, game of thrones looks much better despite being a tv show).
Not to mention the fact that the main threat was a complete joke, there is not sense of danger, the military could have beated the chitarui, sorry seeing this supposly earth mighty heroes fighting generic aliens isnt hype inducing to me.

I was speaking of Fassbender, actually.

This is what I'm waiting on.

Either actor, I'm weary also of Magneto.

If Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch age in Avengers, why can't Wolverine be in Avengers? Hasn't Wolverine been with the Avengers in comics, and wasn't he first introduced in a Hulk comic?
