As a massive fan of the X-Men, I've noticed over that over the years that Fox's once-beloved films are now being soured upon by many. Not that I don't understand why, but I do NOT agree (except for X-Men Origins; we can all agree that one was a disaster). Which is why I'm daring you guys to say something positive about them and name the BEST X-Men movie and why it's your favorite. I'll go first - X-Men: First Class, easily. It's the most stylish, has the best character work, seriously expands upon the mythology of Earth-10005, and captures the X-Men in a way none of the other films managed to do. While I love the other movies, they mainly capture Bryan Singer's vision of X-Men, which I love. The Deadpool movies capture Deadpool, James Mangold's Wolverine films capture Wolverine, but the main X-Men movies captured Singer and Simon Kinberg's version of X-Men. Which is fantastic, but only Matthew Vaughn truly brought the color, imagination, and tone of the comics to the screen. X-Men: Days of Future Past comes close since Vaughn's style gets blended with Singer and Kinberg's, but it's not quite as pure. Both films are practically perfect and are on my list of my favorite films of all time, but it might be the style.

What's yours?

Logan and X-Men movie timeline

James Mangold, director of Logan, confirmed the film is canon to Earth-TRN414's timeline, the timeline created by the X-Men in Days of Future Past. Plus, Deadpool 2 references Mangold's movie, but The New Mutants shows footage from Logan. The references within the film fit the characters, as Charles talks about his Earth-TRN414 past, while Logan talks about his Earth-100005 past. Now, given that we know that Logan takes place on Earth-17315, and the post-DoFP X-Men universe is Logan's universe, I think we should move the info from the Earth-TRN414 pages to Earth-17315 pages. Thoughts?

Should the X-Men films be rebooted or continue with the Fox timeline? I say the latter.

The X-Men movies are a mixed bag of continuity, but they still hold SO much potential, especially after Logan. They could really benefit from exploring the characters they already have, their usage of experimental tones, the freedom of R-ratings, and more! Future films could integrate Dan Stevens' David Haller (the world of Legion certainly lends itself to merging universes like that), use Elliot Page's Kitty Pryde more, explain the fallout of Xavier's psychic seizure, and properly make Laura the new Wolverine. This franchise could really move forward in a greater direction than just starting over in the Marvel Cinematic Universe would do. I dunno, what do you guys think?

Do you think that the X-Men films had any influence on the mainstream comics?
