    2020's The New Mutants is the final Fox X-Men movie that ends the franchise in a pretty low note. The most interesting thing about this movie is the high number of times it was delayed during the last few years, almost as if Fox didn't want anyone to see it. There were talk of New Mutants reshoots that never ultimately ended up happening, but for some reason Disney that they didn't even put it on Disney plus. In today's Anatomy of a Failure, let's see how reshoots and reworkings in the pre-production stage ensured that this movie never worked so we'll know what to watch out for in the future. Then all that's left to do is see what Marvel and Kevin Feige do with the X-men and the Fantastic Four in the MCU.

      I kinda made a similar mistake with my first book The Children Must Feed. I tried to do to many different things, the story is basically just a horror movie in book format. But halfway through the book I added 4 more characters and another sub-plot. I eventually went back and edited the book getting rid of things I felt were not need and making it more coherent. It's still a little rough around the edges but my 3 books after that I made sure to stay focused on the main story and not worry about adding extra things just for shock value.

      Actually the complete breakaway from the original content should have made it it's own thing instead of piggybacking onto a good franchise. The "Russian Girl" literally got kidnapped by the ruler of Limbo and taught how to use black magic and she eventually defeated him and became the reluctant ruler of that relm.

      Split could bank on M. Night Shyamalan's name for marketing. I think if The New Mutants tried that it would have quickly been forgotten. The biggest gimmick of the film was that this was the first Marvel horror film. Take that away and you don't have much left, just another cheap jumpscare horror film.

      Well there was one graphic novel where everything that could go to shit in Marvel universe pretty much went to shit, such as Bruce Banner being mutated into tumor-filled body monstrosity instead of The Hulk, Fantastic Four members being turned inside-out from solar radiation, Punisher being gunned down by criminals on street right away, Magneto is insane and kept in special prison because he is unable to control his powers, one of the X-man (I think Jean) is herione addict-prostitute. It was pretty grim and dark.
      Also, Immortal Hulk was pretty much body horror and quite good, and then like 20 issues later, they started inserting some political nonsense such as Hulk leading the BLM protest and being on global warming protests, etc. It became a huge mess so I just gave up. First 20 or so issue were really good, unique spin on Hulk. It was basically horror comic but then as usual, Marvel decided they don't want sales so they "fix it".

      @DanielFolsom 3 года назад +10

      I agree in part, but one difficult thing about blaming reshoots is that it assumes that a first iteration was actually good. We can say "Wow this film obviously suffered from the issues associated with rewrites," but we *can't* say "this film is worse than what it would have been without those rewrites." Sure, rewrites/shoots introduce new problems, but that doesn't mean those problems are greater than those of the original film (despite what Josh Trank might insist).
      I'm not saying the final product was definitively better than whatever the film was before reshoots-only that we have no idea. So, perhaps it was the writers! Perhaps the first draft was just a mess, and the studio decided stepping in was worth the downside. Perhaps stepping in was worth it! Perhaps it wasn't. We just don't know.

      @@DanielFolsom You have a good point, and I'd like to further that one by saying that the director Josh Boone, also didn't like how the movie was turning out by 2018 and had his own rewrite as well as a set of reshoots planned. That director is relatively new, but he did direct The Fault in Our Stars, which was fairly good movie, so I trust that he could see this film not being up to par at that time.
      Reports suggested that there were problems deciding on how to handle the reshoots for over a year--some blame was put on Boone there, but some other blame was put on the "creative team", which is what @Filmento had been talking about throughout this video. Since the reshoots seemed to have never happened, it looks like the movie we got was based mostly on footage from that earlier draft.

    I feel like so much of this movie could have been saved if the doctor (or group of doctors) were a more antagonistic force. If it had felt like these children had no control over their greater course, these small acts of rebellion and impulse would be easily characterized as grasping for autonomy. It feels like some scenes had this in mind, like when Illyana gets herself in trouble and seems happy to be put in solitary, because it's a choice she made, but even that then clashed with the amount of actual autonomy these kids had.

  • @UnreasonableOpinions
    @UnreasonableOpinions 3 года назад +20

    It's fascinating to me that they were working on this at almost the same time as Legion. Here they have a film trying to present a somewhat-surreal film about the process of coming to terms with the line between mutancy and mental illness, and whether ignorance or knowledge of your powers are more dangerous, and just completely screwing it up. The maddening mishmash of narratives at the heart of this film is particularly frustrating given Legion's main strength is that it manages to keep the audience involved through a more chaotic and far more prolonged story through careful use of thematic and character consistency. If you want to have a complex and changing story, you need to ensure the audience always has some touchstones so they have something to hold onto when the story gets weird and confronting.

      @@victorortero8743 Fox did not want to make either of those movies, so no, they don't deserve credit for those films. I think Days of Future Past would have been a good ending for both the original and prequel cast. End on a hopeful note.

    I've never seen a reviewed film that's so bad even just a little bit of it being showcased for explanation bores me. Your critique is spot on, this thing is just so, so putrid that I can't sit through anymore of it. I can't believe someone got paid to make this garbage.

      Yeah, but I don’t think Wolfsbane is one of the LGBTQ+ Community. I think she had a romance with a boy once and gave birth to a son but I don’t know if she ever was in a romantic relationship with a girl in the 616 continuity. Can somebody confirm me if if’s true?
