It saddens me that it became cool among zoomers to hate the FoX-Men films. However uneven they were, the good ones were really damn good, and they overall paved the way for the MCU alongside Raimi's Spider-Man films.

X2 is better than most mcu movies

>It saddens me that it became cool among zoomers to hate the FoX-Men films.
Literally where and when?
Half of these are well-liked

Another NPC who heard dozens of people praise X2 in particular and repeats after them, having no particular reason of his own to like it best. The first movie is still the best/most novel.

They were barely good. I saw X-Men in theaters and was underwhelmed even then, we all were. X2 was cool, the Deadpools are fun I guess as live action cartoons. That's about it. Logan is overrated as hell.

I was thinking about X-movies the other days how I seen almost all of them except dark Phoenix and New Mutants.

That if it's worth it to watch, I'm tempted to see it before MCU-X comes out.

I taught in a high school in 2017-2018. That was, what, two years(?),after that first Deadpool movie? And I'd say around 1/4 of my kids owned multiple Deadpool shirts, backpacks, etc. It was huge. No clue how they felt about the X-Men movies, but those Deadpool movies made bank for whoever ran the merchandising department. I assume that's Marvel. Maybe FOX got a cut.

>Logan is overrated as hell.
I'm going to say it's rated as it should be. There isn't a single thing I don't dislike about the movie.

They fucking sucked
They might as well just call all the movies they shit out 'our attempt at marketing it to the teens and onions adults so we can make cash'

Wizard magazine pushed "X2 is the greatest comic book movie of all time" so hard it just became accepted wisdom amongst X-Men fans. Wizard changed their minds by the time of Spider-Man 2, but there are still a lot of people who'll swear that X2 is the absolute peak of comics movies because those movies about other superheroes can't possibly be better. Honestly, the X-Men movies just never managed to do as good a job of being ensemble cast team movies as other comic team movies did, it's basically just a few characters that actually matter.

>the year Logan killed the MCU

I watched these movies when they were coming out. I was indifferent to the first one, I liked the second one and hated the third one like everyone else who watched last stand

Yes, FoXmen paved the way and walked so MCU could run but they sure did shit the bed at times with installments like the wolverine, apocalypse, and both of the dark phoenix. Tbf, mcu had plenty of stinkers during their first few phases as well. It's just the cycle repeating itself

The first two X-Men films were better than any MCU film (I haven't watched most MCU films). X-Men 3 was shit. I didn't watch any of the rest, and will now hide this thread as I couldn't give two short shits about any of your opinions.

Why didn't this pic include New Mutants?

As overrated as it is, I think it would've made for a way better ending to the franchise than either Dark Phoenix or New Mutants.

>and hated the third one like everyone else who watched last stand
Oddly, that one was hated by critics and by X-Men fandom, but was the most successful and popular one with normies until DoFP, which overperformed internationally compared with the rest of the series.

I'll never understand why, it was a really bad movie and nobody remembers anything from that movie. but everyone talks about the magneto breakout in X2 to this day

The best superhero franchise by far and it's not close

LOGAN is gritty grim dark shit, not that some wolverine comics aren't, but the movie is like a western with a marvel character as the lead. It barely even seemed like a cape movie at most times.
