"this is not First Class but it’s no Apocalypse either."

"A missable culmination to the 20-year X-Men franchise thus far"

@NicolausCopernicus - If this movie isn't Fant4stic level bad, like all the scooper dudebros have been saying for the last year, I'm gonna be disappointed.

Honestly - it will probably be extremely meh. That’s what I’m feeling on it - the trailers haven’t been terrible. Seeing McAvoy pretty buff as Professor X is a little weird but that’s it it😂

@regularmovieguy - McAvoy did reshoots while in The Beast mode (not to be confused with Beast played by Nic Hoult) from another superhero disappointment (Unbreakable is still incredible), so it's gonna be like Affleck in JL 2.0 except instead of getting bloated between shots Xavier's gonna get jacked.

@NicolausCopernicus - I saw it....it’s somehow worse than the first go around in X3. I think it is by far the worst movie in the fox men franchise. They really phoned it on this one. Sophie turner is the only one getting praised because none of the other actors gave a shit.

@NicolausCopernicus - The reviews sum up Simon Kinberg's career fairly well. He is everywhere, but he is never interesting.

Not good. Now, I begin to fear a movie as bad than The Last Stand, Apocalypse or Avengers: Infinity War. Sad end for such a series.

I would have wondered if they'd ask Hoult about Batman, but since it's the official Marvel red carpet they probably won't be able to

I feel like there’s no hype at all for this. Like no one knows it’s coming out. I don’t even know if I’ll see it in theaters to be honest. Now that I’m thinking about me and my two kids plus food it’ll be around $80...it doesn’t seem worth it. Plus they wanna see Secret Life of Pets, Aladdin and I want to see Godzilla still. So might have to miss this.

I feel like once this is out and then Spidey comes out, its all MCU and Phase 4 from here...and I’m pumped.

Nicholas Hoult is really tall like they say. Taller than McAvoy and Fassbender and also than the interviewers.

Even than me. XD

Here me put. This is the second attempt to the Dark Phoenix storyline. We know we wont get X Men for another 4 to 4 years......soooooo let's take advantage of a perfectly good Sentry/Void storyline. Semi similar story beats. Hes another crazy powered character, and lastly and this is most important.. I WANT IT lol. And I know last year people argued with me saying hrs just a RIP off superman, which is kinda valid...but since there are still no plans for a Superman movie at the moment why not. (I'd post image but my phones not letting me so just Google lol)

@MrCamw1 - Sentry is a bitch version of Superman....which is saying quite a lot.

More powerful than anyone but scared to take action. What a disappointing character. Then when he finally does take action he only fights Hulk to a draw? Come on now.

Sentry had everything there to be a fantastic character. He just wasn't. I'm not even saying he shouldn't have had his flaws. But he should have at least been man enough to deal with them instead of being a little girl about it.

@CorndogBurglar - I'm gonna guess your not the one who gave me a like. Anyway that's comics. All that can be changed to accommodate big screen adaption.

Jessica Chastian looks beautiful. She and Sophie Turner have had a lot of fun in the press tour.
