"PEACE WAS NEVER AN OPTION."

After the colossal failure of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Fox was stumped as to what to do with their next project in the XMO pipeline that centered around Magneto. Since the original script heavily featured Xavier, as well as the fallout between the two former friends, the studio decided to scrap the subseries entirely and begin a new trilogy of prequels -- starting with much of the same stuff from the original Magneto script. This film has been hailed as the best top-to-bottom X-Men movie to this day, but how does it hold up after thirteen years? Come watch with Brian and Alec to find out as they continue the X-MENATHON with the beginning of a new (or old) era -- X-MEN: FIRST CLASS!

ONE OF THE MOST INFAMOUS CBMs OF ALL TIME!

After the original trilogy puttered out with the disappointment of The Last Stand, Fox decided the best course of action was to start a new series of solo films about significant X-Men characters, and who better to kick them off than the ever-popular Wolverine? Well, with the original Japan-based project getting scrapped, the decision to extend the Weapon X origin to an entire film, and one of the most notorious cases of production troubles and studio meddling, you get a recipe for a disaster even bigger than its predecessor. So, come watch with Brian and Alec as they revisit one of the biggest misfires to come from the past 20 years of CBMs -- X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE!

THE DARK TIMES BEGIN!

After X2 teased a high-budget adaptation of The Phoenix Saga for the end of the trilogy, fans waited eagerly to see how this trilogy would stick the landing. Well, between another horrible person stepping in as director, a complete lack of interest in the Phoenix, full-focus on another storyline entirely, and nearly all of it revolving solely around Wolverine? You got a catastrophe waiting that would take years to rectify. This movie is considered to be one of the biggest disappointments of all time when it comes to comic book films, but how does it fare nowadays? Come watch with Brian and Alec to find out as they continue the X-MENATHON by revisiting one of the multiple black sheep of the franchise, X-MEN: THE LAST STAND!
