No, there was X-Men, and X2. I've never heard of the other two, and suspect you are making them up.uro vii said:Actually there were three. X-men, X-men 2/X2 and X-men: The Last Stand. In fact, if you count Origins then there were four films.SonicWaffle said:OT: Why is X-Men listed as a trilogy? There were only two films...
It wasn't so bad, it just wasn't anywhere near as good as the original comic. Some elements were pretty stupid, but on the whole it was watchable. The main mistake was making it more of an action film, whereas the book was more intellectual.uro vii said:I actually thought the Watchmen was a pretty horrible film when I first watched it. I then read the novel and went back and watched it again. I hated it even more on my second watch.

Fanon Discontinuity is the act of fans mentally writing out certain events in a show's continuity which don't sit well, no matter if it's a single episode, a season-length arc, an entire season or even an entire series. If a plot or ending rubs one the wrong way severely enough, fandom can just decide that the offending events never happened. On the series level, events may fall under Discontinuity because the show is perceived to suck at that point. Events also get "discontinued" for particularly screwing up the characters or setting, and a show that starts to suck will end up screwing things up eventually anyway.

See, these dudes get it! Maybe you just imagined these other two X-Men movies you claim to have seen?MrDeckard said:I enjoyed the two X-Men films, no one has made any more. I am going still say the Dark Knight simply because of Ledger.
While we're at it, would you mind explaining to everyone that the Daredevil and Ghost Rider franchises have not been opted into films as of yet?Slyjay88 said:I second this, i also want to know about this third spiderman movie people are talking about because the first two were excellent, theres no way they could fuck up the third ........SonicWaffle said:No, there was X-Men, and X2.

Huh, I never really encountered Fanon Discontinuity before, nor did I realise people had a problem with the last two X-Men films. Well fair enough then, I admit my ignorance.SonicWaffle said:[link]http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FanonDiscontinuity[/link]

What last two X-Men films would these be? ;-)uro vii said:Huh, I never really encountered Fanon Discontinuity before, nor did I realise people had a problem with the last two X-Men films. Well fair enough then, I admit my ignorance.
Breaking character for a moment here, Origins was merely a bad movie. This is forgiveable, especially given the general standard of comic book movies. The script was crap, the acting wooden and it just wasn't any fun.WakeTheDead1 said:I didnt include x-men origins because a lot of people didnt like it a lot, but i didnt realize there was much hate for Last Stand
