      For me this was the best insight of X-men movies; for Xavier and Magneto, it's easy for them to brag about being mutant, because their power are amazing and have no side effect. But what about Rogue or those mutants with silly powers (like frog related powers), that become outcast because of their weird appearence and dangerous powers. Is a complex question without a clear answer.

    • @WillcraftAnimations
      @WillcraftAnimations 5 років тому +73

      To me, the answer is pretty clear: If you wanna cure it, do it. If you got awesome powers or you like your lame power and find that the drawbacks are worth it, go ahead and keep them. It's a simple matter of choosing for yourself.
      The harder question would be if mutants should be FORCED to take a cure if they have dangerous powers. On one hand doing so has an uncomfortably fascistic feel to me and people could be putting their powers to beneficial use, but on the other hand superpowered criminals sounds pretty bad too.

      All of these superhero movies try too hard to ground the spectacular. Especially the Marvel Netflix series (I'm particularly looking at Iron Fist). It's been a problem since Spiderman. The Tobey one. Which I'm 70% sure came out before X-Men, could be wrong.
      Doctor Strange is described as having a weird form of technology or science. Galactus was made into a cosmic storm thing instead of a giant purple man. The actual Purple Man wasn't purple. David Tennant could sell it and you know it. Thanos is a murderous radical activist instead of being obsessed with the literal incarnation of Death. Spiderman was effing bitten by a "genetically-altered spider." Having different genes doesn't grant superpowers any more than radiation does! Iron Man's trilogy is the only collection of movies that make sense grounded, and they succeeded in making them really spectacular and fun!

    "Oh, I have a mark, my dear. And I assure you, no needle will ever touch my skin again."

By the time that Fox caved, preproduction was coming to an end and filming was about to start and they rushed the explanation. That is why the Phoenix personality bullshit is a thing and why she spent most of acts 2 and 3 standing around staring.

    “Because of water.” No. It was heavily implied in X2 that Jean had been “different” since Liberty Island. Probably her use of Cerebro began the breakdown of the psychic barriers. Her powers were “off” during X2. That’s why she could only stop one missile and not both. The closer Phoenix got to the surface, the less control Jean had. Because she was fighting for control. At the end of X2, she gave in to it to save everyone.

      Felipe Rico tbh, I don’t like Nicholas Hoult as Beast. He seems to much of a pussy, not to mention he pretty much never turns into the beast except for the third act and maybe a scene or two that needs a funny slapstick joke like throwing Wolverine across the manner. Nicholas just comes across as too much of a Peter Parker, shy nerdy kid type. I get that if you have the power to change from blue hairy beast to your regular self you would stay your regular self, but wasn’t Beast’s whole mutation that he’s stuck like that??? Nicholas just doesn’t have as much suave and sophistication to come off as a good Hank McCoy. Kelsey Grammar though, by God it’s like I’m watching the animated series!!!!! He got everything perfectly! Nicholas Hoult as well as the entire new wave of X-Men was miscast. I’m sorry but I’d rather not see women drooling over Magneto, a man that wants to wipe out humanity for what they did to him an his family.

    @powerrangernerd8122 4 роки тому +59

    Just saw the film. Here are my notes:
    I, too, find myself having a bit of a soft spot for the film (not alone NC).
    The idea of having a "cure" for the mutant gene is very intriguing, and the fact that it brought a divided debate is very realistic.
    The fact that Magneto's powers came back, I see as because they didn't seem to have tested it on mutants prior, and they said they only "replicated" the DNA of the child (replicates are almost never the exact same as the original, and some liberties may come into play).
    Rogue taking the cure was justified, as she stated earlier in the film, she wanted to touch people, give a hug, and even kiss without killing someone.
    The "re-emergance" of the Phoenix seemed to have actually come from Jean herself in X2, as, several times, her eyes were going a reddened gold color, and, right before she was engulfed by the water, the fiery glow came around her, and so, the Phoenix could've taken over at that point, building power over the time that she was gone. Also, on that note, anyone know how long it was (movie timeline) between the two films? A month? Several years?
    Beast being a "hypocrite" when giving the weaponized cure to Magneto was because they needed him taken care of and neutralized.
    The fact that Charles came back, no idea, since his death was fine... In that, leaving it in as it was heartbreaking.
    And, the debate and views were possibly my favorite part of the movie. Which would you choose? Would you "cure" yourself and live a normal human life, or is the mutant gene just another thing that makes you... Well, you?
    All in all, I do understand why people don't like it, but, you can't deny that it's good moments... Are unbelievably amazing. The debate, the ideas, the graphics, and the action scenes are amazingly well done, but, for an hour and forty minute movie, it was just a bit rushed. More time was needed so that everything could be well developed, so we could care more, and so that everything flowed naturally. Had this movie been two and a half hours or, dare I say it, three hours long, then it probably could've all worked and enough time might've been given to flesh out all of the ideas, fix the plot holes as best they could, and possibly make this movie not so hated.
    People, everyone is entitled to their own opinion!!! If someone says this movie is good, I'll listen to them and see, as well as understand, why they think so. If someone says this movie is the worst, I'll listen to them and see, as well as understand, why they think so. The internet was made to share our ideas and opinions with open arms, not force our feelings down others throats.
    Nostalgia Critic, I hadn't seen the X-Men films (at least, not all of them in their entirety) , but I still watched, laughed at, listened, and understood your opinion on the franchise. I don't know what I'll think of the films in the future (watching through them now, only saw 1-3), but, I will have my own opinion, and, possibly, compare my thoughts to yours.

      Storm's power can be like Marfan syndrome: a genetic disorder that as long as you get a proper diagnosis and treatment when it comes to the cardiovascular system you can live a full natural life.
      While Rogue's can be compared to xeroderma pigmentosum: a disorder that slows the repair of DNA caused by ultraviolet light to the point that just spending a few minutes in the sun can result in a severe sunburn, there can also be hearing and sight loss, poor coordination, loss of intellectual function, seizers, 50% chance of skin cancer by age 10 as well as other cancers, mainly brain cancer, and natural lifespan is 30 years shorter than the average person, and like Rogue to spend time outside in the sun they have to be covered head to toe.
      Pretty easy to see why a person with XP might not mind the idea of gene therapy since it would mean that they could do something as simple as go to the park during the day without having to have every part of them covered. Like how Rogue here would like to be able to actually touch someone without worrying about killing them.

      I've always felt that mutation was, in these movies, at least, an allegory for alternate sexualities, particularly homosexuality. There have been attempts at creating cures for being gay, and there are those who would willingly take it. That creates resentment in those of us who are fine with the way we are, because it implies that there is something wrong with us. Not to mention, as Magneto said, it would only be a matter of time before it went from voluntary to mandatory.

    • @ryancarson6962
      @ryancarson6962 5 років тому +11

      Ken Hollis The problem with that is that the allegory of alternate sexuality is very weak when it’s about having super powers. Rogue can kill people by simply TOUCHING THEM, how is that in anyway comparable to something like homosexuality? Simply liking the same sex is NOT the same thing as being a living nuke, I’m sorry but the allegory simply fails on that front. On the voluntary versus mandatory debate if we’re talking about doing that to super powered terrorists with abilities like Magneto’s, which may I remind you could level cities in a matter of minutes if used lethally, like say controlling all the metal nukes, who simply can’t be arrested under normal means, than that debate isn’t as black and white as you make it see .

    Fun fact: After Bryan Singer rejected this film to do Superman Returns, Mathew Vaughn, who directed Kick-Ass and X-men First Class, was signed on to direct this film. And he actually went through the process a little bit, as he was the one responsible for the casting of Beast and Juggernaut, and also wrote an early rough version of the script.However, something happened where I think Vaughn lost interest or was directing another film, and he departed the movie. After that, the studio quickly grabbed Brett Ratner to do the rest of the film. So for the people saying that Ratner did one good thing in the film with the casting of Beast, it wasn't even him that did that.
    It also proves to me that DC, Marvel, and other comic book companies should really give Vaughn more chances. It's obvious that he's a huge comic book fan and knows how to represent comic book characters. I got pissed when I read that DC rejected his vision of superman, it sounded really cool with a trilogy with each one focused on a different part of Clark's life, with Charlie Cox from Daredevil as Vaughn's choice for Superman. Instead they rejected him and we got Man of Steel, which was alright at best.

    Y'know, if they really wanted to dive into Jean's psyche while she visited her childhood home, they could have done a scene like this (Keep in mind that I'm lifting a lot from the excellent TV show Wolverine and the X-Men):
    A de-aged Professor X now in a wheelchair and a young Scott Summers meet Jean at her house. At this point she's been having monthly sessions with Prof X to learn to control her powers, but she refuses to leave her parents and go to Charles' new Academy. Jean is visibly older, perhaps 14. Jean is shocked to see Prof X in a wheelchair and asks what happened, and where Erik is. Prof X sighs and says that Erik and he had "disagreements", and that they will no longer working together. The subject is very touchy for him. He perks up though because he introduces Jean to his school's first official student; Scott Summers. Scott and Jean act all awkward, as you'd expect 14 year olds prepubescents with laser eyes and mind control powers to act.
    Later, Jean and Charles start their session, but something is different this time. Charles is having to constantly tell Jean to dial her powers back, and one thing leads to another and Jean ends up accidentally diving into Prof X's mind. She witnesses his fight with Magneto and, traumatised by the fighting she's watching and the fact that she just unwittingly invaded someone's mind against their will- Something she's been trying to avoid through her sessions- Jean's telekinetic powers start acting up. Objects fly everywhere. Jean's parents hide and Prof X is still mind whammied, but Scott manages to calm Jean down by telling her about how Prof X has been teaching him to control his powers, and how the Academy is a beautiful place, and more junk like that that centres Jean and allows her to stop. Afterwards, she calls out her parents for hiding as she was freaking out, and storms off to her room. The scene ends with Prof X telling Jean's guilty and terrified parents that it's time for Jean to attend the Academy, and that he'll have to put a mental block on her powers.
    I like this idea because it continues the scene that the movie opened with, establishes more of a reason for Scott and Jean to be a couple, sets up why Jean would return to her childhood home by making her resent her parents' neglect of her powers, and lastly this scene would show how Jean's Phoenix powers began to surface without the use of exposition. In my opinion, the Pheonix was an aggressive manifestation of Jean resenting how scared her parents were of her powers. Heck, Jean's relationship with her parents could even help prove that many mutants and their families need a cure.
    Anyways, you read this whole thing, then props to you 😂

      Honestly, if you wanted to nail the tragedy of Jean Grey as the Dark Phoenix/host of the Phoenix Force, you could honestly take elements of Carrie. You could’ve had Jean’s parents see her as the work of the devil, then she gets transferred to Xavier’s school to train as a member of the X-Men. And when she comes in contact with the Phoenix Force, she and the Phoenix Force have a relationship similar to that of Peter Parker and the Venom symbiote: she and the Phoenix Force have this dialogue that tears at the essence of Jean and causes turmoil for her. Eventually Jean embraces the power of the Phoenix Force.
      The tragedy element should come from sympathizing with Jean and making her own choice to embrace its power.

      Good job. I appreciate you acknowledging it wasn't all original, but that is a solid synopsis and backstory that I think would enhance the movie well. It could even easily be fit into 5 minutes or so of running time.

    The one thing I always disagreed with....don't make Rogue the poster child for why you shouldn't have your powers taken away. She literally kills anyone she touches. She's the one person who probably should have her powers taken away. Her life would be miserable. It's not like Storm who can control the weather, Rogue freaking kills anyone she touches and cannot have any sort of human contact ever

    I honestly enjoyed watching the movie, magneto being super badass is a feast to the eye... But, while after the two first movies ended, I left the cinema wanting to read more x-men comics, this one didn't make me feel like that, it didn't manage to make me want more of the characters and the universe, which is why I find it to be so bellow the previous ones.
