I used to watch the occasional video up until this year when she started to become self obsessed and annoying. Although not annoying enough to hate watch like a Grace Randolph or an Andre. ![](https://s26.postimg.cc/m8f14k0ih/yes.gif)

She despises all the Fox Xmen films so no. Yeah she takes her X-Men very seriously. The comics growing up helped her deal with being different. (She's said that on numerous occasions) So she's protective of the franchise. She is of the ilk that wants the fantastical, broad horizon, cosmic, colorful, and comicbook accurate look and feel in the movies. She hates the neutering of Cyclops and the nerfing of Storms powers. Also Rogue being pretty useless. Her biggest complaint is how they have treated the Phoenix and Dark Phoenix in the movies. The power being insider her all along as part of her mutation. Not being a cosmic force. The Phoenix Saga/Dark Phoenix is her absolute favorite comic arcs. And in her mind they butchered it in X2 and X3. It was kind of alluded to in Apocalypse that it is a mutation again not a consciousness. Charles screaming "Let it go" this could be taken 2 different ways. Maybe they learned from X3 not to make it part of her mutation. It doesn't matter about Jean having the Phoenix in X2/x3 be part of her mutation but her younger self hosting a cosmic force. If they decide to go with Jean having the force in her instead of part of her mutation. It will further ad to the continuity problems. The X-men continuity is fragged either way. I know x3 was supposed to wiped clean, but still how does Wolvie going back in time change jean's powers from part of her mutation to a cosmic force? (if they do change it.) Another gripe she has is that almost all the team Xmen movies Wolverine has to be the lead. Making it more like Wolverine and the X-men. I don't know how much I agree with her on this. She makes some good points, but X2 will always be one of my favorite cbm. Except that is from the comics. The Phoenix Force didn’t exist until six years after The Dark Phoenix story in a retcon that readers hated. And Apocalypse hinted that it wasn’t a mutation and it’s been confirmed that isn’t. Seems like she is a fan of the 90s animated series than the older comics because in the comics and other adaptations Jean was born with the Phoenix power. Similarly she said that Venom’s origin in the comics was the same as the 90s animated series. Even Rob from ComicsExplains says she has no idea what she is talking about when it comes to older comics. And why does she want the X-Men in the MCU if she disliked the focus on Wolverine? She is not aware that MCU producers and writers also made the Wolverine and The X-Men cartoon?

Saw this in my recommendation on YouTube.
Thoughts?

No, she's a shameful embarrassment like Angry Joe and other dickhead YouTube "reviewers". She's demonstrated time and time again that she knows nothing about film.
