Dark Phoenix The Simon Kinberg Thread - Director, Writer & Producer of Dark Phoenix

[x-er]

X-men teaches tolerance of differences. It says nothing about tolerating the biological manifestation of mediocrity that is Kinberg.

Fixx isn't making any sense. Any "greedy Jew" would want to jump right on the diversity bandwagon.

What I wanted to see was all those different viewpoints, not just the X-Men's but all those other groups in the comics, plus the input and experiences of each character and their personal journeys.

By now we should've seen Beast gain and lose a human love interest, fight alongside the X-Men and eventually leave the X-men to fit in with the rest of humanity after silencing his genes with a drug, or something. Instead we've had a Hank McCoy who's been in love with Katniss Everdeen??

Pay attention X-Men teaches tolerance yet some of these so called fans are anything but. No one said you can't dislike someone but you do it after they show you something to dislike not before.

Au contraire, he has shown me "something to dislike." I've seen the poster, I've seen the lack of imagination in the costumes, I've seen the bad wigs, I've seen characters that don't need to be here take major roles in promotions, I've seen the filtering down of elements from the comic book arc, I've seen the insistence on recreating scenes from X3, I've seen the first trailer, I've seen the multiple release date delays, I've seen (and heard) from reliable source that it's no good. I'VE SEEN HIS WORK AS A WRITER.

But you might want to change the goalpost again to "you haven't seen the movie" because the "we haven't seen anything to make a judgement" defense is not gonna fly.

Mmmmmh...

I just leave this here:

Maybe have a closer look at the paragraph economic antisemitism...

Reported.

So Kinberg has telekenetic powers as well?

 

[Blade Hoarder]

He's like Star Lord in Infinity War. He points forward, the people go the other way.

Considering the fact that I am Jewish I find this comparison by you highly offensive.

Pretty sure he was banned after he got reported for that post.

Some schmuck called me out for that here because apparently my sig "proves" that my attacks against Kinberg are getting personal.

Who knew quoting someone was "getting personal?"

I'm sure I can update that to any number of Dark Phoenix Kinberg quotes now that the movie's been proven to be a fail.

I forget the exact words, but I recall at WonderCon, he said something about earning the right to tell the Phoenix story again. Some garbage like that.

Was it after he said "You're welcome" to the crowd because he fixed X3 with DOFP?

 

[AndrewGilkison]

Kinberg pointing to where his career as a director is going after this disaster of a release.

 

[EnDz0n3]

Oh to be a fly up on the wall, listening in to how Kinberg explains this mess to the higher ups.

 

[psylockolussus]

I'm intrigued to see his honest reaction to these reviews.

 

[TheVileOne]

I'm more curious to see what the Box office response will be.

Of course, its gonna underperform as eXpected with the reviews also being a X-factor.

 

[ironman_rick]

So many talented directors in hollywood and fox decided to hire someone who wrote some of the worst x-men movies. Awesome...

 

[Erik Lensherr]

 

[Dark Raven]

McAvoy to Kinberg: When you've torn all your hair out after the reviews of this movie, you'll look just like me!

Kinberg: Where's my paycheck?
Sophie: You have to produce a successful movie first.

Not sure overall how he will be. I feel like anything that what I liked from DP was the amazing team of special effects artists, sound and cinematographer. Simon was surrounded by people who brought him up. Writing on this was just typical of him. Really needs to stay away from telling a story. He just can’t ever get it right. Everything he writes is so clunky. Had they hired an actual director who could’ve guided this in a better place I feel like it would have been received better. Like I said I didn’t hate it. It’s just a little too late now. Marvel please don’t let this guy anywhere near these characters again.

This is why you don’t hire your mates for important jobs, unless they happen to be leading directors (or those with a lot of potential) who deserve the job regardless.

 

[samsnee]

He’s a real triple threat.

 

[Snow Queen]

He’s a real triple threat.

Judging from the reviews, emphasis on the threat.

 

[EnDz0n3]

I don't know if it was an ego thing or what, but Kinberg being the sole writer AND the director really, really hurt the film. There was so much good about it and I can see the effort (especially from the cast), but this just needed more work put into it. Co-writing the film with a smart female writer would have done miracles for the end result.

We could've told you all that during pre-production, during production, during post-production. Oh wait, WE DID!

 

[EnDz0n3]

Even when proven wrong you still can't accept it. You continue to blame others for trusting the wrong people and actually lob personal insults. But I'll let you be. Enjoy.
