Dark Phoenix X-Men: Dark Phoenix News and Speculation Thread - - - - - - Part 15

Not saying that was the reason for the third act change. Judging from photos they seem to have reshot Sophie’s scenes.

Yeah I misread. Looks like her scene in the forest and her lying in bed were reshot which are the two they’ve released promo still of. Everything else mid 2nd to the end were reshot.

 

[GuestStar2004]

Funny enough Manabyte said the reaction for a test screening for Deadpool 2 went terrible and he felt it wasn't even gonna reach 60% of RT. he then decided to leak information about the movie.

This was before they did reshoots, but he claimed unless they changed the whole movie it wouldn't change the negative reaction it will get.

 

[Erik Lensherr]

So chance for Fox's X-Men under Disney?

That wasn’t the same version of the movie though. We know they reshot it after that.

And my source was the same guy who leaked the Deadpool 2 plot to Manabyte. He didn’t like this movie himself but that’s what he said was different plot-wise.

Will you please stop with the strawmaning. Didn’t say that wasn’t a significant. But it doesn’t seems like the whole movie was the problem.

You keep accusing people of strawmanNing but I don't think you know what that means. You're right they only did reshoots on 1/3rd of the movie so that means it's not a total cataclysmic disaster, just partly. I smell Oscars.

Well the stuff he claimed people didn't like were still in the final movie. only one that didn't was the baby Hitler part which apparently upset some people.

Overall the final reaction to Deadpool 2 probably wasn't what he expected.

Editing and do wonders for a movie. Just ask Star Wars.

People? It’s just been you. You seem to have a habit of putting words in my mouth. And your sarcasm is unnecessary.

Doubtful.

 

[The Infernal]

Doubtful.

Iger has alluded to wanting Deadpool to carry on in the mcu. He said something along the lines of recognising that Deadpool makes money. There's also the rumour of a R rated Black Widow film.

but a mediocre script by a mediocre writer wont do wonders.

 

[SumT]

No idea, i was a kid back there and i did not used as much the internet. But X3 did have great moments in it like Wolverine killing Jean so...

yeah. hopefully this second version also has another great scene (even if the rest of the movie is mediocre). As long as there is one great scene, who cares about the rest of the movie, right?

Though it doesn’t seem like Kevin Feige wants to make that series canon to the MCU timeline. Unless you make it some alternate universe or something.

 

[EnDz0n3]

Iger has said you can't have two different Marvels. If (and that's a big If) Ryan Reynold's Deadpool makes that jump to Disney it'll be connected to the MCU.

But none of these things have anything to do with X-men or Dark Phoenix.

 

[Darkprime]

seems weird they are doing press for Dark Phoenix now isnt it? is it possible this press tour was already locked in back when the movie had the valentines day slot? so fox are stuck with the cast doing a press tour months in advance before the movie actually releases? so by the time we see any of these interviews theyll be 3-4 months old.

I hope not. I want DPh to be good, but I think the series has run its course.

Yeah but Deadpool doesn't have to be R rated to be made. it could lose something by not having it be R, but for the most part they could make it PG13 and people would still go see it

They have never actually said they wanted to carry on this incarnation of Deadpool in the MCU. like everything else its pretty much a we will see what happens when it comes to it.

Bob is also being a good businessman. one thing you don't do is convince people Disney have limited potential. But at the same time you also kind of know that once you start mixing kid friendly MCU marvel with R-rated MCU marvel the lines will start to get abit blurred between what kids can see and what kids want to see.

 

[fobi]

Cool. Maybe we'll get a trailer soon.

 

[Erik Lensherr]

Why this press day was sort of secretive?

 

[Nadia]

Cool. Maybe we'll get a trailer soon.

Sounds plausible.

We know this time would have been the around the time of the press for the Feb 14 release.

With that time likley scheduled in their contract for press (hence they wouldn't be working in films/tv) they may use it for them to exploit a trailer release.

I'm not American, how long before hand do they reveal guests before shows like GMA?

 

[EnDz0n3]

I have no idea why they're doing PressDay now but I doubt Dark Phoenix stars are now going to start guest-appearances on Colbert's show or The Daily Show or as you said, Good Morning America.

Fox should use this opportunity to promote Alita. That movie needs it now.

He's alluded to it before, now he's literally saying Deadpool will be R rated and there will be other R rated Marvel movies. What more do you want?

 

[psylockolussus]

I don't see the point in solo X-men films. Their best stories, even individually are team stories. I've never seen anyone recommend a solo X-men book or seen one outside of Wolverine who can hold an on going book.

i hope Marvel Stud10s doesn't do them.

No thank you, @Erik Lensherr
