What happened, /co/?
I thought Apocalyse was suppose to save the X-Men franchise? And beat the MCU?! They even brought Singer back again. And yet it lost to Captain America Civil War (even though DoFP beat Ultron)?? And critics hated it more than X-Men The Last Stand???!!!!!

What happened?

Comparing those two?

Novelty wore off and general standards got higher.

Things don't have to be 'good for a comic book movie', they have got to be good.

There is no super-hero fatigue, there's superhero integration. Every 'superhero' movie now has to either bring something new to the table, or meaningfully advance the plot of a long standing series.

Apoc did none of those.

This, the standards for good cape films has increased.

The X-Men (like Raimi Spider-Man) come from a time when there weren't many Superhero films. Because of this a lot of people cut them slack for not being perfect. Now we got the MCU increasing the stakes. Even Spielberg liked GotG.

I honestly dont give a fuck what reviewers are saying. its one of the best xmen films and it did something almost no superhero films do today,IT STUCK TO THE FUCKING SOURCE MATERIAL. This movie acutally tried hard to stick its roots unliike civil whore that only thing it shared close to its roots were iron man and captain america fighting about something,plus the film had better pacing that civil bore as it didnt have deep politcal scenes then blast your ass action scenes one after another. Civil war wasnt bad but xmen apocalyse was a WAY better comic book movie while i know some dumbass normie is going to say civil was a better film while it may ne but i like my comic book movies to RESPECT THE DAMNED MATERIAL.

I don't fucking know. Days of Future Past had such a well crafted script and I really thought they were onto something there.
But this movie felt like they shat out the script in an afternoon.
It felt like no one involved with this movie fucking cared about it.

Everyone is just doing their job and any real excitement or creativity is completely missing.

Everything was either forgettable or just more of the fucking same. More Xavier, more Magneto, more Mystique, more Weapon X, another Quicksilver scene, a little bit of Jean and Scott, a whole lot of "remember this?", the phoenix a-fucking-gain and another one of the fucking "The REAL X-Men begins here. THE END."

You know, I didn't dislike this movie too much when I had just watched it, but as more time passes, it just becomes more and more clear that I will probably never purposely watch it again. No, not the director's cut either.
The things I liked about it were ultimately drowned out by the rest of this shitty movie and I don't care enough about that stuff to go back and revisit it.

They didn't care why the first one made a billion dollars, just that it made a billion dollars. When you have something that successful, it's not a big leap to decide "hey maybe we should whore this out a bit more for a quick buck." Though I agree, why it took them 6 years is beyond me. Maybe they kept trying to get Tim Burton to do it and eventually settled for the bargain bin director that ended up making it instead.

This movie sucked. Its the action movie we all knew Singer wasn't capable of pulling off. Fox finally caved to his budget requests and this is what we got. The other movies had real ideals and themes and this one is just.... hey this guy is strong, we need to stop him and save the world.

And honestly, anyone that says this is good cause its like my comics must not have been reading the same comics as me. This feels like fan fiction within the movie-verse, not some straight outta X-Factor shit in the slightest.

I'm honestly blown away how the fuck Singer made a phenomenal movie with DoFP and follows up with this abortion.

He basically never showed up in Claremont stuff outside of the two(?) occasions where the new team fought the O5.
Iceman only got more exposure again after X-Factor started up and he just got dragged along as "one of the O5". He's a light hearted character with not a lot going on. They tried to make him interesting by putting him in relationships with different characters, then they power creeped him, now they made him gay in a desperate attempt to find something for him to do.

When Claremont started his run, Wolverine was a little shit, constantly bitching randomly at the actually cool members of the team, Storm and Cyclops.
Claremont only found out how to write him over time and that's when he caught on. The book was fine without him before.

Nah man, standards are still low -- people just expect every superhero movie to be like the Marvel flicks.

The only recent superhero movies I'd consider legitimately good films are Nolan's Batman trilogy (yes, I even like Rises despite the shit it gets).

Marvel films are fun, but nothing more despite critics trying to pass them off as art when they're merely a product of assembly-line filmmaking.

Until studios start making superhero movies that have more depth and are more than just cartoony fun, then I fail to see how they've actually raised the bar to the point where one can take them seriously as great films.

The part after Weapon X where it cuts back to Apocalypse waiting to go on with his plan, that's when I saw that the movie had fallen apart completely. Because at least during the Weapon X scene, you had some of these new characters interacting to solve this situation together and actually do their first mission and stuff.
And as soon as it cuts back to Apoc, you just know this is just going to be a dumb CGI ending that would do nothing in terms of actual character development. Well, except for Magneto I guess.

And no, to me this isn't about console wars -- it's about film. I'm not a DC fanboy, I just want movies to feel cinematic and Marvel movies don't. Plus it feels like franchise movies are suffocating the film industry so that original films get snuffed out and fail to get any attention.

It seems like you have a case of 'it's only good if nobody likes it', then.

You cunts are the same that complained about Star Wars and Raiders of the Lost Ark and the like at the time, but you're missing the point that as long as it puts peoples in theatres, it's not killing film, it's propagating it.

It's putting kids and people of all ages to watch it. Heck, I watch these movies with my 53 year old dad and my 12 year old cousin when he's around. It brings people together and creates moments for which the next generation will feel nostalgic about.

But you complain because it pushed all the mid-budget productions to the shitter? When in fact all those mid-production stuff has been put to TV-serials instead?

Actually, I don't mind these movies on occasion but my issue is that they hog all of the attention and kill any semblance of creativity that there is in Hollywood..

Then again I've never understood the connection with the "Marvel Universe" that people seem to have, so what the fuck do I know. And imho Star Wars and Raiders actually felt cinematic to me.

There's something about them that makes them feel more personal than any of the franchises that the big studios are pushing out now. Maybe because they were created by a director who had a vision as opposed to a studio and their focus groups.

Also when you say...

>When in fact all those mid-production stuff has been put to TV-serials instead?

Are you implying that these franchise movies are pushing mid-budget productions to television when they would have been made for theaters 10-15 years ago.

>kill any semblance of creativity that there is in Hollywood
They don't, they are just in the biggest spotlight. So is rock music. It hogged the spotlight from Jazz and Jazz only improved from it. Do you think Miles Davis liked the Beatles? Fuck no. But years later, every relevant Jazz bassist cites Paul Mccartney has an inspiration.

You're just afraid of your tastes not being relevant, but now YOU have to go after them, not the other way around. Things are still being done, just elsewhere. Superhero movies aren't here to develop film as an art, they are here to enjoy it with your friends and family. They are a new plateau for people to enjoy and sherish, and eventually get satiated with after the main run is done and start exploring something new. It's a new status-quo thing. And it IS happening:

>Are you implying that these franchise movies are pushing mid-budget productions to television when they would have been made for theaters 10-15 years ago.

Yeah man. Crime dramas are now tv-shows, not movies. Same for mob stories and even some fantasy stories. These are relatively cheap to produce and benefit with the longer narrative opportunities.

All that's left for cinemas is epic 'event' movies like superheroes, low sci-fi or fantasy stuff. Even sci-fi seems to have found its niche with Black Mirror and the like. And it's alright. Creativity always finds a way of being shown, especially with global markets where 1% of the population is a huge fucking number. And there's nothing wrong with that, besides this idiotic idea that a theatre is inherently better than a large tv screen, a good couch and your friends/girlfriend and beers/blanket.

Well sorry I can't be as optimistic as you, but I think it's really sad we're stuck seeing quality cinema being pushed to the small screen. I like the format of movies that can be seen in theaters as opposed to episodic flicks or television episodes. Sorry, but that's just my taste. You may be fine making the transition, but to me it's just painful to see.

Oh well, at least there is TCM.

(also sometimes change isn't always good. Let's keep in mind modern music where we have shit songs by the likes of Justin Bieber and Nikki Minaj hogging the limelight).

Also based on your thinking why do we still have the Academy Awards?

Are they going to stop giving them out once films become obsolete, or will we see a best picture lineup that includes "Captain America 38: Bucky and Cap Come out of the Closet" and "Frozen 17"?

If Hollywood stops seeing film as art, they should end the charade and stop treating it as such.

But that movie was awful? I guess I don't pay attention to what critics say about things that aren't pushed in my face by /co/.

Why the fuck do some of you guys take these movies so seriously?

I loved Civil War. I thought Apoc was pretty good. Do some of you guys really have nothing else in your lives but obsess over the success of movies that you have no control over?

Are all of you like under the age of...ugh never mind. Probably.

Oh, you're retarded and think anybody cares about the domestics. Right.

DoFP made about $750m, Age of Ultron made about twice that. Nobody gives a shit where the money is made any more because the effective rate of taxation is zero.

Its budget was $234m, not including marketing.

It needs to make about $600m just to break even. This failure to keep budget costs down is one of the things that kept Singer off the series so long - even though he didn't direct X3, he did determine where most of the money had been spent already by the time Ratner came on board.

In a world were MCU is acclaimed? It has the same fucking format for most part.
