Podcast Episode 78: X-Men Dark Phoenix

By GreigT13 in Comics, Film, Marvel June 24, 2019

What can we say about X-Men: Dark Phoenix? Did it X-Cite us? X-Cillerate us or X-Ceed our X-Pectations? Or did it mostly just X-Pel the last breath of a once X-Emplary comic book movie series, leaving us X-Hausted?

X-Actly.

In this instance, X most certainly did not mark the spot, leaving our trio of Unfunny Mutants a little disenfranchised, but not quite as disenfranchised as 20^th Century Fox is about to be.

How will the MCU handle the X-Men and the (ahem) New Mutants in the future? We’ll just have to wait and see, but in the mean time, as we reviewed what is most-likely the actual Last Stand, we managed to find ourselves falling down that rabbit hole in the backyard of Xavier’s School For the Gifted and pondered the future of the X-Men, before stopping off at the Dark Knight Rises cafe for a coffee and a cupcake (the size of a tangerine).

If you’re looking for another fiery, smoking-hot redhead, then forget Dark Phoenix, look no further than our very own Mon Milfma! With an Unfunny Nerd Tangent shirt , you can put aside those confusing Fox timelines, and focus on the forthcoming MCU future!
