Please can we truly even compare thisYou can't. They're completely different movies altogether. One is a comedy and the other isn't. You may aswell compare The Dark Knight to Deadpool.

Most kids under 10 would actually have trouble following that conversation. And anewnexus wouldn't know a joke from a knife even if it stabbed him in the face. Point is, is that its very simplistic, on the nose schoolyard type humour. Theres little ingenuity or wit about it. It appeals to children wheras a joke like: Or Will fly over little kiddies heads because they dont grasp higher concepts like political prisoners or car mechanics. Oh I agree they're simplistic, I just don't agree they're kiddie. I think a lot of GOTG and Dr. Strange jokes are simplistic and rather crass. I just don't consider them kiddie, since not all the jokes are stuff that kids can follow and are obviously meant to target a wider age range of audiences.

Please. One word. CINEMATOGRAPHY.
Look at DOFP, the grounded realism and atmosphere. IW looks like a PS4 game because mcu movies are too cartoonish looking
They both feature CGI beings punching another CGI being. The only difference is one is dark, literally in terms of lightning, the the other I can see what the fuck is going on. This is why we need more Chris Nolan's films. At least he can shoot a fucking comic book movie. I'm guessing the reason DOFP looked so bad is because Bryan Singer was too busy fucking underage boys.

We need xmen to stay away from the mcu disney. poor mcu fans, they just cant handle fact about DOFP. you do know nolan got most of ideas from singer. strange thing all these directors just end up hating mcu movies. One is dark and looks more real because the characters are not there to sell toys. funny it was the same with the nolan batman movies.

Shame for you really that there is probably a bigger number of people out there who just love CBMs and Marvel films generally and look forward to a future crossover. It's quite laughable that you get so upset over something that hasn't, and may even not, happen. And it's not as if Fox have handled the x-verse perfectly - there have been some duds in there.

Also even if Nolan got the ideas from Singer then he did a much better job because Singer just darkens scenes for the sake of it. It's insulting to put Singer in the same category as Nolan as all three of Nolan's Batman movies proved he is a far more capable director than Singer. Singer wishes he could match Nolan's style.

poor mcu fans, they just cant handle fact about DOFP. You made the thread to ask people to give their rankings of the movies. Now you're resorting to trolling because they've given a ranking that you don't agree with? Why ask people to rank them if you were just gonna belittle their choice anyway? If they prefer GOTG then it ain't the end of the world.

If they prefer GOTG then it ain't the end of the world. I was not trolling. I was responding to MCU fans who called dofp dogshit or whatever, which is what mcu fans say about xmen movies because they can't handle the fact that another studio is making serious good comic films. to be fair it was hobowar that was trolling. he started the petty insults. please read my comments I gave real film criticism why I ranked all 4 that way, hobowar just said dofp was dogshit and called the director a molester, though he has not been convicted yet. I kept the ranking civil by sticking to film art.

Mute Bucky winter soldier >>>>>>>>>>>>>> 500 pound fat of Thor. Since the other topic got locked up I still would like summers8 to comment on the following: I know Day of X-men Retcon is supposed to be the last "good" X-Men movie, but for my money, it managed to be quite impressively dumb. Mostly where it concerns the issue of time travel and how to stop the whole "kill all Mutants" thing from getting started. In other words, the whole premise of the movie is deeply flawed. The way time-travel works in this movie... doesn't. It doesn't work. Like in the comics, the mind of one of the X-Men is sent back in time to possess the poor unsuspecting body of their past self. So far so good. And the mutant who is going to be sending the traveler back in time is, of course, one of the many time-manipulating mutants. Velocidad? Tempus? Majik? ...Wait, it's Kitty Pryde? Kitty, for real? Okay, then. Why does Kitty Pryde suddenly have the power to send people back in time? Well, isn’t in obvious? Kitty’s powers allow her to phase through walls, and what is time but... um...? Nope, I got nothing. This doesn't even work within the realms of her powers, because her powers send THE BODY (with the mind still attached, granted) through physical objects. Never has Kitty's powers just sent somebody's mind elsewhere. Why not just have Cyclops shoot a hole in the Time Wall, or something? It would make about as much sense. And course, Wolverine is the one going back because Fox hasn't figured out that people are tired of him instead of Xavier because the strain of the journey would tear Xavier’s mind apart (oh, bullshit!) but Wolverine’s got that healing factor so he’ll be fine. Last time I checked, his healing ability didn't repair his amnesia, but hey, what do I know? I've only apparently paid more attention to their powers than the filmmakers. Anyway, Logan is being sent back to 1973, because Mystique assassinated a scientist named Bolivar Trask, the invent or of the Sentinels. Mystique was then captured and her DNA was used to create even more powerful Sentinels... Wait, what? No. Put on the breaks. What?! That is not how Mystique’s powers work! She can’t turn herself into metal or ice or fire, she just changes her appearance. In the first movie, her fake Wolverine claws were easily shredded by the real deal! A MOVIE THE DIRECTOR OF THIS MESS MADE! If you need a mutant who could kickstart a killer robot program, you use... Uh, none of them? Because that's not how Mutants and robotics engineering works! Back to topic, Wolverine has to stop Mystique and Magneto from ruining everything for everyone, because Magneto is also going to kill Richard Nixon. Spotting where this plan is dumb yet? They want to avoid the bad future riddled with mutant-killing robots by saving the life of the guy who originally designed the mutant-killing robots. That's like using time travel to prevent the Holocaust by sending a Rabbi back to 1929 to kick Adolf Hitler in the balls. I hate to say it, but the best course of action for this situation was supplied by Rhody in "Endgame. So Logan travels back to 1973 to discover that he somehow hasn't enlisted and been stationed in Vietnam at the time and goes to change history. Things get REAL dumb again during the climax, though. Just as Nixon is unveiling the Sentinel Program (and is for some reason NOT sending them off to clean up in Vietnam), Magneto pops in and drops the RFK Baseball Stadium on the White House. After some more shenanigans involving re-programmed killbots and a narrowly avoided Presidential assassination, the bad future is somehow prevented. Uh... No. Just no. No. Brian Singer... you were born in 1965. You were alive to see what kind of person Former President Richard Nixon was in real time. People who were children at the time have reported being pissed off by Nixon's actions as the events of Watergate unfolded on the news, so I know kids were paying attention. What's your excuse? I mean... Really? Freaking. Really?! In the narrative of this film, Richard Nixon gave the Mutants a pardon? Okay, let's frame this. From Nixon's perspective, Magneto DROPPED A FREAKING STADIUM ON THE FREAKING WHITE HOUSE as a show of power before moving in for the kill on Nixon and his Cabinet, and was only stopped at the last minute by the same mutant who'd just tried to kill Trask earlier that day! Then the guy who dropped a stadium on The White House for the intent purposes of assassinating the President and his Cabinet was allowed to get away by yet another mutant, and this one has the power to take over people's brains to use as his meat puppets! And Nixon's just okay with this? Oh, yes! That oh so famously nice, open-minded, trusting President Nixon concludes that Mutants aren't a threat to national security and society based on this?! If anything, this should have just made the bad future WORSE! Come on my friend, dont let me down. Show me wrong.
