The first X-Men: Dark Phoenix trailer is here. Oh boy. It’s the last movie in the series before the X-Men rights go over to you-know-who. This is it after 19 years and𓆉 there’s just so much to take in: Jean Grey gone bad; a possible Magneto team-up with one of the purest X-Men, a probable big death, and so much more.
The internet, as ever, has come prepared with its laundry list of hot takes and overreactions about the Dark Phoenix traile♔r. Let&🍎rsquo;s take a look at some of them, shall we?
This is the end
Welp. A lot of fans aren’t taking the fact that the Dark Phoenix trailer is the beginn༺ing of the end for Fox’s X-Men output very well at all. Sad face.
Dawg i really just got done tearing up. The final X-Men film 19 years in. What an achievement no matter if i like the movie or not. Im going to miss all of this man. What fox has done with the X-MEN will always be a soft spot in my heart u🀅ntil i pass. //t.co/Joq7iNXKrV
Jennifer Lawrence's mystique as an X-Man and Jennifer Lawrence in general is my only conplaint in the new X-Men trailer. Everything♈ else I'm looking𒁃 forward to. Sad it's the end before MCU ruin it. Still Can't wait to see Cyclops blossom into the iconic #XMen Leader we all know.
X-Men fans right ಌnow #DarkPhoeni🌊x pic.twitter.com/jvSWGkMaro
Jean Grey as the focus: good or bad?
This one’s going to split opinion right down the middle. Game of Thrones’ Sophie Turner is back again as Jean Grey – and the Phoenix Force seems to have gotten its mitts🌜 on her, as she looks suitably evil throughout the trailer. That’s not even taking into account Jessica Chastain’s character and her nefarious influence. Still, some fans aren’t convinced.
Sophie Turner is going to lift this film to new heights. The perfect swan song to the Fox X-men Universe. #DarkPh💙oenix pic.twitter.com/13lgyPu4BU
As a long-time X-Men fan, #DarkPhoenix just doesn’t excite me. Sophie Turner’s Jean Grey was weak, bland, and utterly atrocious in X-Men Apocalypse. Not sure I can watch an entire movie centered around her 😒
X-Men🅠 got the casting right for Xavier a🦋nd Magneto, but everyone else is bad
Costume drama
One thing is for certain: no one’s a bi♔g 𒊎believer in these X-Men costumes. Far from carrying the sheen of previous movies, these look downright ropey.
How can a big budget movie like X-Men: Dark P🅰hoenix have such CHEAP looking costumes? It’s just not believable. pic.twitter.co🍰m/kxvBM9GRzW
Man I hate that Dark Phoenix trailer. ꦡXavier’s known Jean since she was six?!!?? She’s evil?!?? There’s no mention of the Phoenix force?! Magneto is annoying!! They’re wearing bad rip off new X-men costumes?! It’s so bad and I’m so mad. When will someone pay J🤡ean some respect?
Why is the X-Men costu𒁃me ♑like that when you could have t h a t #DarkPhoenix pic.twitter.com/KBlMXhyrvc
X-Men♊ Apocalypse ended with comics accurate costumes and now Dark Phoenix is right back into the stupid jumpsuits/flight suits... I can&rsq♑uo;t wait for Kevin Feige to retcon the X-Men into the MCU
Death in the family
Someone’s popping their clogs – but who? Spoilers here: because everyone seems ꦐto have figured out whose funeral that is. Bonus points for those saying the X-Men franchise is in that cas🌱ket. Hi-bloody-larious.
We see Beast on Magento's side standing against Charles and the X-Men which leads me to believe Xavier has something to do with Phoenix 🦂coming about and Phoenix kills Mystique. pic.twitter.com/jh0uCrllzK
Besides the Death of the Franchise buried here, i think the Dead X-Men is either Jean or Mystique #DarkPheonix Anyone want to Guess or even Care?🍒 pic.twitter.com/rXyn♍simzYQ
I honestly cannot wait for the fox X-men film franchise to di𒅌e 🧜the unceremonious death it deserves. Dark Phoenix looks awful.
But it's not all that bad
There’s a select few fans who are really excited. There’s Spongebob me🎃me꧑s and everything.
#DarkPhoenix looks amazing.No more screwing around for the movie X-Men. Magneto's out for blood, Xavier is out foꦍr blood, front row for Jean & Cyclops, back row for Mystique.Sophie Turner seems to have the shifting mindset in full.Excitement: Activated.
Aside from the fact this💛 is @20thcenturyfox last X-Men movie & they should have gone much bigger, we've still got Simon Kinberg directing, the formation of Magneto's Genosha, Jessica Chastain, hopefully some space scenes, & maybe the death of Jennifer Lawrence. I'm hyped. #xmen //t.co/2xPiLVyA5N
