That fist X-Men film is very weird now. There's so little dialog and they keep putting putting both the heroes and villains off at the side of the scene in action figure pose.

We watched them all this year (my younger kid is on a huge X-Men kick just now) and I enjoyed watching them. I was surprised to find that Dark Phoenix wasn't nearly as bad as I expected. It might not me good exactly but it has some great bits. If you enjoy watching Magneto fuck people up with massive chuncks of metal you should at least watch the fight on a train.

Also I read the original Dark Phoenix comics this year and they suck too.

I still like superhero films but I am not expecting much from Doomsday. It was a small miracle that Avengers and Infinity War/Endgame were as good as they were considering all of the pieces which had to fall into place to make them work. Doomsday only has half the pieces and half of those are bad.

I could be wrong though. It has certain happened before.
