User blog comment:Gwen Stacy-Parker/Should the X-Men get a reboot?/@comment-4652104-20121202190745/@comment-3317214-20121203113743

Okay, so you don't hate reboots when they're necessary; it's just that we have different ideas about when necessary is because of our opinions on the films, right? Because I think that at least "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" and "X-Men: The Last Stand" sucked deeply.

Also, there's been more movies in this franchise than there were in the old batman series. And after the next two come out, the X-Men franchise will have nearly double the number of films that the old batman series had. And once the prequels get back to where the original trilogy is, the only way to go is forward, which seems just a little bit weird to stand after the last stand.

Plus, if Fox stopped making X-Men movies around now-ish, and then took a couple of years off, before making reboots, the resulting films will probably be much better, and then make an ongoing series out of that. (If I had it may way, I would get them to use that time to plan a good trilogy or more than three films with a clear, vision that feels like it's going somewhere with complex plots, multiple sets of villains, etc., and let these be reboots, so that they are not tied down by the original ones (and their lack of quality and continuity), and preferrably link in to the MCU.)
