they actually pinched the entire XFC line! Whole article!
IGN original text: Between Mystique breaking into Trask's files and Magneto guilt-tripping Professor X, we learn that Angel, Banshee, Emma Frost, and Azazel were all killed between the events of First Class and DOFP.
This shocked me deeply, The excitement after watching the movie disappeared. In order to bring back acquaintances and continue the old trilogy, 20th Century Fox chose the most conservative and timid approach. They were obviously worried that the young cast of XFC would not be able to live there, so they simply abandoned XFC’s new faces. , Taking the opportunity of changing the timeline to fill the gaps with acquaintances, and by the way, let the old tribe resurrect as a matter of course.
——It’s not that this is not good. Of course we are happy to let them come back, but why sacrifice the role of XFC? They don't really think that people like XFC just because they love to watch Shaowan fall in love with the professor. XFC wins in a smooth story, both national hatred and the growth process of young people. It tells the story of the first generation of X-men growing from children to responsible X-men. Love and hate are intertwined, both cute and abused. Team battles are all brilliant, in addition to the theme is as profound as ever, it is also witty and relaxed that belongs to the younger generation. The humorous part of the old trilogy is played by Wolverine. This place belongs to the lively academy, and the energetic theme is still my alarm. How I wish I could see their stories continue, and see an independent trilogy of young people from that era.
From the 1970s to the present, spanning several decades, there are so many stories to tell, and there is too much space to show the demeanor of a generation of men-Banshee, Havok, Beast, who would have thought that their cooperation on the screen was only once? Lao Wan’s White Queen, Azazel, Angel, and Riptide, these characters have too much potential, and they should have gradually improved the views of the radicals in the following plot, and used specific actions to intensify the contradictions between the two factions. At the same time There is still concern for the mutant companions in his heart, so he will be in a state of entangled opposition, and he has to guard against human malice. There are too many entry points to think about, and then combined with historical events, how can you worry about the lack of plot and can't think of a good story?
But in DOFP, these glorious characters in the first part actually appeared in the information as corpses, and they just turned it over? It doesn't matter who the beach breaks up with, because everyone is gone.
This is the end? XFC hopes to contain abuse, but the theme is still hope. Two groups of mutants with different concepts realize their responsibilities and are eager to plan to change the course of the world-but you actually cut all these roles without saying a word? Why? It’s because I suddenly thought, "Hey, if you let the old version come back, it will be safer", "Yes, acquaintances appear, everyone will buy it", "This can also resurrect the bento and restart the old three", "Right, right, or the old version of the character comparison Insurance is popular".
You are right, everyone would love to see the continuation of the X-Men, but I don’t want it in this way. Despite the unwillingness of thousands of people, the old trilogy is still over. There is a sentence "Krypton had its chance" echoed in my mind when it comes to this—that's probably what it means. The third part is over, despite the heavy casualties, it is also a full stop. Now that you see superhero movies selling big, you want it to come back, yes, XFC is a good start; want to get the bento back, no problem, but at the cost of sacrificing the new characters in the good beginning? What was your original intention to shoot XFC? I don't believe that Fox decided to wipe out a generation of men from the beginning. Behind the motivation of interest, they put aside the most youthful and energetic first generation, and made an extremely conservative decision to cater to most fans, but ignored a small number of audiences who particularly liked the new beginning of X and looked forward to the newcomer's story.
I like this movie very much, but the fate of the XFC character makes me too dissatisfied. After the hopeful first lesson, what was waiting for them was such a perfunctory ending, and this was by no means what was planned in the first place. Of course I also love the team leader and the Storm Girl, so I sincerely hope that the two worlds will coexist. We can see the story of the first generation and the returning soldiers cooperate again. However this is impossible anymore.
I'm very curious, how do you make the next movie? Obviously, the future and modern lines cannot be intertwined. So which side are you going to sacrifice?
ps. By the way, the poster is so ugly.
