"You're always sorry, Charles. And there's always a speech. But nobody cares!" - MagNEATO

Question: Why did the Magneto cross the road?

Dark Phoenix was everything that I expected it to be: a bloated, poorly written and executed story with some moments in SPACE. Fortunately, I have not watched any of the previous installments of these X-people flicks, but even without these experiences, I knew what I was in for. The goons of Hollywood have laid the groundwork. They have spent countless hours and money building this X-UNIVERSE to prepare me for this moment and deliver the anticipated pile.
