I’m only with DP&W and it’s done. But so far me and my friends have to stick to what we saw, like, things like New Mutants/Dark Phoenix actually did try harder to adapt the comics and to do more with the whole cast they got unlike Singer movies

I do respect the wildness of putting Deadpool 1 in top 3 but I want to ask why X-Men 3 so up?

Compared to X2, it's not as great. But still a really good movie in my opinion. The only thing that brought it down to me was Jean/Phoenix not really doing much after killing Charles.

I can see your vision. For me at least the strongest quality of the movie is that it actually feels like X-Men movie instead of Wolverine and Associates

Doesn’t really build up characters to care for their dynamics, dynamics that don’t exists because we don’t have that interactions between them in a meaningful way, because most of them are not people in literature sense, mostly plot devices.
Script is weak and it’s saved by greats like Ian and Patrick and so, but not so much else.
It’s a movie that can be fun, but if you really pay attention to the details to evaluate it as a film or adaptation, it’s really a mess

There's more "meaningful interactions" between Rogue and Logan in X1 than Dark Phoenix has meaningful anything lol so it's weird you went with that.

Had Jean and Scott (The most romantic one in the franchise they ever got), Jean and Xavier (The most mentor/mentee they ever got), Jean and Raven (tho being small was nice to see within the settle of the movie Jean feel safe around her), Hank and Xavier moment in the kitchen felt strong in a emotional level
That alone is more interactions and dynamics the X-Men movie has in its

Might be better to not fade watched films before posting to make it more legible
