I don't really trust Fox with this. Apocalypse wasn't good and I'd MUCH rather see the Phoenix mixed in with the MCU cosmic stuff anyway....
Also, having the Shi'ar mixed in with the MCU cosmic stuff would be incredible...yah, let's hope that when Disney buys Fox movie assets they put the kabosh on this for now...

I really liked Magneto’s character arc and enjoyed all Quicksilver scenes. I’ll give it that much.
Originally posted by Ridley_PrimeI do agree the lack of a buildup really hurts these films. I also don't care for the Dark Phoenix at all but no one said LOM had any taste in characters.

Pretty spot-on for the most part, imo...

Apocalypse obviously requires more than 1 post credit scene to build up. The movie tried hard enough but still suffered from it.And to be fair, his characterization isn't very awesome even in the comics, Mr. Sinister is a better villain.
Are we sure this Dark Phoenix film is still even happening after Disney buying off parts of Fox? If so, this'll be the FoX-Men universe's ending (although Logan was already an ending enough), before the house of mouse starts doing what it wants with the muties in the MCU...
Sinister on the big screen definitely still needs to happen at some point regardless.
Hans Zimmer will be pretty creating the musical score
