X-Men: Dark Phoenix WonderCon Footage - 10 Reactions You Need To See
8. ...But Not Everyone Is Enthused
With the movie's frequent release-date shuffling, mediocre trailers, and the fact that it has endured nothing but harsh conversation for many, many months at this point, it's almost considered a fact that Dark Phoenix will be an average - or bad - waste of time.
But in reality, there will be people who like it, and people who don't, and the same is true of this footage. There's a lot of positivity here (more of which we'll get to later) but it didn't please everyone, with MCUCosmic editor-in-chief Jeremy Conrad summing up his thoughts in a brief, succinct manner:
Conrad gave some reasons behind his negative reaction in other tweets, stating that the footage "comes off like a film student who watched Armageddon too many times and wanted to be like Michael Bay", and that one fight scene looked like "an early 2000s superhero movie fight." Welp.
He also pointed out that Storm uses her weather powers in the vacuum of space. Fans of scientific accuracy, be warned!
