Description

Welcome back to your favorite podcast about some of the biggest bombs in film history. In this week’s episode, we discuss one of the biggest cinematic flops for 20th Century Fox and Marvel Entertainment, 2019’s Dark Phoenix. This is the fourth installment of the prequel films and the 12th installment in the X-Men film series. Dark Phoenix had all the trademarks of a bomb such as numerous re-shoots based on test screenings, studio mergers, uninterested actors, a first-time director, shifting management, and poor marketing. Do all these factors make Dark Phoenix a bomb? Were audiences, critics, and comic book fans too harsh on this version of “The Dark Phoenix Saga?” Download the episode and hear our thoughts!Special thanks to our good friend Jose from Watch / Skip+ for stopping by and helping out with the discussion!Dark Phoenix is directed by Simon Kinberg and stars James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Sophie Turner, Tye Sheridan, Alexandra Shipp, and Jessica ChastainMake sure to check out Jose on Watch/Skip+ and make sure to drop them a review!Also, James, friend of the show, lost his beloved dog - Penny a little bit ago.
