My favorite element of the meta humor was that they definitely tried to make the TVA and Mr. Paradox, specifically an analog for Disney trying to dump any Marvel property they didn't produce in-house into the Void, which was basically a trash bin for the reject Marvel characters The fanservice was the kind of thing that could've bordered on Member Berry type stuff if put in for the sake of putting it in but they actually gave everything narrative purpose and turned the movie into a eulogy for a bygone era of comic book movies.

Deadpool 2: is Mourning and trying to find the space to move on. these characters are done but we can make the most of it,; turn lemons to lemonade and remember them for what they are. Dark Phoenix: is the reminder that when a corpse dies, it shits itself. at this point we knew the Fox Films were over, they were getting sold to disney and that this would be the last movie with a grim comedy that it died yet again adapting Dark Phoenix New Mutants: is a stillborn child. it was dead before it came out the womb, fox was already sold to Disney, the movie was stuck in development hell since 2016/17 and it came out in the middle of covid lockdowns. regardless how good it is, regardless of the things it did that I liked, there was no way it would be used by marvel going forwards.theres nothing to be done for it and any plans the film had for its trilogy would die alongside it.

If we're being real, the only reason the MCU even exists is because the X-Men and Raimi Spider-Man films popularized superhero movies. For the 8 years before Iron Man released, they were the standard for superhero movies.

[@kail4997]

Kevin feige literally start his career on the set of fox X-men, these films are the reason why MCU get to exist today, it proves to executives that there’s a market demand for marvel’s property. But X-men last stand still stinks lmao

As someone who grew up around the fox era of Marvel films, I certainly won’t deny how much of fitting send off to that part of superhero history, through its ups and downs, and it’s bizarre middles, truly the best finale Seinfeld could have .👌

as a guy who grew up on all the early 2000s marvel movies (except Daredevil and Elektra) this movie felt like it catered to me i was sitting with my dad and I had a smile on my face when I saw Chris Evans as johnny storm and Wesley snipes as blade and the credits were just the icing on the cake with how much behind the scenes stuff they showed with each of the actors feeling like they loved working on the projects it just made me feel like a five year old kid again watching old DVDs in his living room acting out as my favorite character and though no one has said anything and he didn't appear in any recent media yes I do absolutely adore Ang lee's Hulk movie.

[@ANGELOFDARKification]

Kinda wish they doubled down and added more Fox characters or done more fakeouts. Imagine they got Fassbender but he ended up being the Spanish guy from Assassin's Creed

[@fulcrum6760]

They’d have to ask Ubisoft about that and wouldn’t he speak Spanish since the animus has a translator that makes them speak English?

[@ANGELOFDARKification]

@@fulcrum6760 Fox made the movie so probably could own the rights. The lore stuff wouldn't be an issue because you could explain it as a joke the Deadpool way.

[@SecretMagician]

I said this elsewhere but what's Micheal Chiklis doing nowadays? He could have come back as the Thing. It would be crazy if they had someone from Fant4stic show up too aside from the credits, but I'm pretty sure everyone involved in that film never wants to relive that again.

I agree completely Xavier! I was fully expecting them to kill off everyone from the void but they gave them respect and even had Laura contribute to Logan’s motivation. This definitely isn’t a multiverse of madness situation its one of the good multiverse movies

I was the only one who cheered for Channing Tatum’s Gambit in my theater, everyone else lost it at Blade and X-23. I know how long he’s been waiting, and he was on the the top of my list for cameos alongside Olivia Munn Psylock, and Hallie Berry Storm. Glad he finally got a chance to play the character he’s been waiting for. And I agree I like that the film brought attention to the other fox products everyone has kind of forgotten. One last hurrah for them, and I can respect that.

10:02 See I thought: “End of an era” as tough as it all was I love those movies and characters

[@darwinaguilero3175]

My family used to own a dvd player that could hold 6 disks at once, and I used to binge the fox marvel movies. All of them. Since they were all marvel, and none of them were technically connected besides being owned by fox and daredevil and elektra having a small connection. I had Blade on VHS and his sequels on dvd. Hell, I even slapped Ghost rider and spirit of vengeance in there as well as the Raimi Spider-Man movies. This was around 2010-2013 before there was a whole heap of MCU movies to go around. Even though I haven’t seen those movies in a while, I still vividly remember the plots and characters being cool, since I was a kid and all superheroes were cool at that time. Seeing a fraction of them show up, be treated with respect, and even seeing Gambit felt like a 10+ year pay off to a thing I did as a kid. I felt validated, in a way. “Yeah, these movies might’ve not been all super successful, but they exist, and came before the MCU, so they deserve respect.” I didn’t tear up or anything, but I felt really happy for one last send off for these guys. Great video, cheers.

I didn't hate the Cavillrine cameo, but I was REALLY hoping that was going to be Dougray Scott instead (y'know, the villain from Mission: Impossible 2 who was originally cast as Wolverine but had to drop out, thus allowing Hugh Jackman to become the character and a star).

[@dr.inconvenience2490]

there was a cancelled edgar wright Ant-Man movie which is why ant mans corpse is seen in the movie. there was also a cancelled Dr Strange movie too that was supposed to be directed by Guillermo del Toro

[@SecretMagician]

Huh, I guess that would explain those two references in this movie. But another fun theory I saw is the Giant-Man corpse is that Scott who randomly showed up in the final battle in Endgame to push a Leviathan into a portal but Scott was busy fixing the time van at the same time.

[@goku324ah]

I think this video describes how ive been feeling since ive seen it. I did feel like the whole movie (flaws) in all was a big love letter.

Not my favorite superhero movie, but it definitely had enough thematic focus to know exactly what it wanted to do and pulled it off well.

Blade is not a FOX movie. It was New Line Cinema. Technically Blade was Warner Bros. Which is why they couldn’t show clips from the Blade movies during the end credits scene.
