A film script which is fully focused on the Dark Phoneix story arc would be something exciting even though not novel. It's also the perfect opportunity to link the franchise to outer space angles. Not sure who would be a villain strong enough to compete with Dark Phoneix however as Apocalypse was easily defeated within seconds.

It depends. X-Writers lately have been wanking Phoenix like nuts, but the other Marvel editors have been trying to depower her. The current Marvel Editor in Chief said that Odin is more powerful than Phoenix IIRC.

They need to give audiences more time with this new iteration of Jean Grey, who we've literally only spent one film and maybe 15 minutes of screentime with, before rushing once again into The Dark Phoenix saga. Do the filmmakers even understand why that storyline was so popular? I think not. Why should we care about Jean Grey or what happens to her at this point? There's no real emotional connection with this under-developed character.
Singer just wants to get that big firebird on the screen so he can scratch that itch he's had since X2. -

HARD pass
This just gives me more reason to stop going to see these X-Men films. They officially lost me as a fan after this film and with the direction that they are going. I wish they'd just reboot the whole damn thing and start from scratch within the Deadpool timeline. -

I'm not really buying that rumour.
It could be true, but I doubt it, it's far more likely that
X-Men 7
will continue developing the Dark Phoenix story and Jean Grey's troubles like it was in
X-Men Apocalypse
, as a B-story, while the A-story in that movie will be about something else, somethingSinister. -

It just needs to die. Apocalypse was a mess for laziness just like Last Stand was a mess for indecisiveness and X-Men Origins was a mess because it felt like one long montage.
They have Deadpool, all the X-titles.
It's time to kill the X-Men. Let them die. If they don't want to sell the rights back to Marvel, fine, they can do X-Force, X-Factor, Excalibur, Cable, whatever and just start fresh.
It's starting to hurt watching these fails. Four good movies in the X-Franchise? No, it's time to die while the comic book fans don't entirely despise it.
