It's a very dramatic trailer, but it still just looks like more of the same. More of the same tired focus on the same tired characters that seems to lift quite a bit from X3 with a little more drama and darkness thrown in to make it seem more credible. Still not what I expect from a Dark Phoenix adaptation looking to right the wrongs of the previous attempt. So glad that Mystique won't be around for much of the film. It is nice to see some scenes in space, even if it did take them 20 years just to make it to Earth's atmosphere (I gave up on seeing alien worlds or the Shi'Ar empire in a Fox-Men film years ago). Is it me or does it seem like Jean's getting her Phoenix powers again even though she already had them in Apocalypse? Jessica Chastain is a fine actor and I'm sure she'll lend some credibility here, but just the bland/lazy design of her character seems to echo what's wrong with the Fox-Men films, wearing all black and as generic looking as you can get. She's like a walking metaphor for this franchise. I bet we won't see her true form (if she even has one) until the final minutes of the film. Sophie Turner on the other hand is grating as always. She can't act her way out of a paper bag and it shows in this trailer. I expect a lot of evil staring in place of dialogue. The rest of the characters (Nightcrawler, Storm, Quicksilver, etc.) as usual seem to be there for their power displays instead of being actual characters with arcs and again no one seems to have aged a day considering the time jumps in these films (Xavier and Magneto, I'm looking at you again). Thankfully this is the end and we can look forward to something fresh going forward. Charzhino, enjoy this while it lasts. Great post.

These stupid threads by the 'admins' are always hilarious to me. It is the same 4-5 posters who cause this crap in every single thread. Stop pretending otherwise. I love how you act like you are moderating or something when you are not. You never do. summers8 and DC Fan can hijack every thread on here with their anti-MCU crap and you do not bat an eye. Therefore, anything else pretty much goes. So you want to censor all cticism of MCU here, the same way that RT is censoring all criticism of MCU there? No, but you are a troll. You hijack every thread and the only topics are the MCU sucks and Tom Brady is a cheater.

But we all know that what you do goes way beyond that. You have some kind of personal vendetta against Marvel and have made it your mission in life to denigrate their films, going as far as inventing reasons to criticize and nitpick. That or you're just really desperate for attention.

I also like X2 and DOFP and even the first Fantastic Four movie in 2005. What I don't like is crappy CBMs, likee the ones that MCU makes.

You do have a vendetta against the MCU, and are biased af DC-Fan. You're not fooling anyone about this.

OK, correction, you have a vendetta against Disney and the MCU. I don't think there's anything they can do to right in your eyes. You're standing by right now with your 1 star rating for Captain Marvel and you haven't even seen it. You can say you aren't biased all you want. No one is ever going to buy it coming from you. Everyone has a right to their opinions, but to say that you prefer the 2005 Fantastic Four film, implying that it is somehow better than the MCU films is enough evidence for anyone that your opinions are motivated by your hatred of the studio more than anything else.

The MCU can make The Godfather and you'll still give it a 1/10 because its MCU.

This movie CGI, acting (Sansa's crying in the beginning is LAUGHABLE AND CRINGE WORTHY) and CGI action looks bad. You’re like the only person I’ve seen say this.

All he cares about is bashing things that are popular.

Same old tired stuff. Looks really bad. You’re saying that previous X-Men films featured alien entities?

It's an X-Men movie. What did you expect? You think the production value is bad?

Definitely a better trailer though that wasn't hard I suppose. Might be interesting, looks a little darker this time. I'm not overly excited for it because they're just redoing the same old thing. I'm fine with this being the last one of these they make. Looks better than Captain Marvel I'd say just based on trailers alone. Looking at how bad the cinematography of captain marvel looks, it is shocking to see kingberg can do cinematogahy better than mcu movies.
And this post aged like milk. Cinematography of ‘X-Men: Dark Phoenix’ isn’t bad, but it’s not much better than that of ‘Captain Marvel’.

It's an X-Men movie. What did you expect? This is everything age of ultron should have been It really should’ve been since Ike Perlmutter was pretty much sabotaging the film.
