In this episode, Laramy and cohost Justin Baker tackle one of the most infamous entries in the Fox X-Men franchise: Dark Phoenix. We break down the rushed character arcs, questionable story choices, and missteps that kept this adaptation from living up to its legendary source material. We compare the movie to the original Dark Phoenix Saga, explore what the film left out, examine the performances (including some actors clearly ready to move on), and discuss how this became a disappointing finale for the long-running X-Men universe. We also talk about what might have been if Jean and Scott had been given more time to develop earlier in the series, and why this story deserved something far more powerful than what ended up on screen.
