I will never forgive Singer the fact we never saw Gambit in the first Trilogy. I wouldn't really blame him for that, we all know he left for Superman Returns, yet was still a producer but I think he didn't have much input and left it with Fox and Vaughn. and I believe they (or maybe just the studio) mashed two separate storylines together, phoenix and the cure, then Ratner took over after Vaughn backed out.

He could have had him since the first one, tho true, but I think he wanted to keep it grounded and approachable. I know some dislike that approach and consider it a misunderstanding of the material, while possibly true, I personally think he had to try and gain the trust of the public and studio, so he started "small" and serious, because this was following Batman Forever and Batman and Robin. So he may have wanted to start it with the most accessible character(s).

How is Gambit not accessible in a movie with Toad, Cyclops and Storm?
And X-Men: The Mockingjay (Apocalypse) only prove he really doesn't understand the material.

Not just that, but caving to her demands of less make-up, what the fuck happened to "Mutant and proud."?
Oh, and the scene when the young mutants in the mansion stare in awe at her...? I swear I felt they were going to do the mocking jay whistle.

I swear I felt they were going to do the mocking jay whistle. i'd actually blame the studio for that one, they probably said "singer.....we only have one more film with THE Jennifer Lawrence so make sure she's in there, also she doesn't want to be in the makeup" now i do hope they recast to someone who actually wants to be there, rather than someone who was literally fucking trying to get McAvoy and Fassbender to leave with her, and shows no respect. so unprofessional.

She is really unprofessional. But now the Hunger Game saga has ended, she is not winning any Oscars, Passengers was a flop... watch, mon ami... she will be back.

I think she's fine outside of the xmen franchise, but as soon as I heard that stupid little joke she made about leaving......I don't get angry too often over this stuff, but made and still makes my blood boil.

FOX is in bad shape, tho. Aside from DEADPOOL 2 they don't really have much, except for FX's Legions and New Mutants. And seeing they are spineless...
