X-Men don’t have it easy. Even though they have many powerful members in the team, they get into trouble more often than not. Not just because they face many dangerous enemies, either. They also argue among themselves, and sometimes these arguments become something bigger and uglier. The X-Men movies do contain funny scenes but are mostly serious, with only occasional moments of humor.
However, the serious tone of the film franchise never stopped the fans from making fun of it. The fans created a lot of hilarious scenes. And some of them were quick to point out all the various ways in which the X-Men movies don’t make sense.
10 A Demanding Job
Whoever said that X-Men have it easy should think again. This meme shows that being a member of the team is just too stressful, unless the person is Jean Grey, in which case, it’s fine. It only took 3 years for Professor X and Magneto to look like they aged at least two decades. Jean, on the other hand, somehow miraculously grew younger at the same time. She was a young lady in 1983 and a kid in 1986. Maybe this is her real superpower. However, the most likely answer is it’s due to bad work with the X-Men timeline.
9 Think Again
Professor X isn’t stupid; far from it, in fact. Yet he makes questionable decisions on more than one occasion. Professor X knows very well what Magneto’s powers are and what he can do with them. Instead of assuring nothing metal is around, he approaches his enemy in a way that gives Magneto multiple options to attack. Maybe the good old professor needs to study a fighting strategy a bit more before he goes into action.
8 A Continuing Mystery
Unlike in the MCU, Evan Peters’s Quicksilver knows that Magneto is his father. They’re both mutants, and Quicksilver only meets Magneto once he’s older. Magneto has no idea that Quicksilver is his son. Quicksilver almost mentions it at one point but then changes his mind. Many fans were eagerly expecting the solution to this storyline. Instead, it never led anywhere and the films just dropped it like it never happened in the first place.
7 Mission Failure
In all of their storylines, the X-Men try to make sure the mutants survive. And in all the movies, they end up dying. It might not be so obvious at first but for some of the most powerful people alive, X-Men are really bad at surviving.
Almost all major members of the X-Men died at one point, some more than once. Even Wolverine who’s as close to immortal as they come met his demise in the grim post-apocalyptic future in which mutants were hunted.
6 Too Late
Some X-Men get in danger on regular basis. Mostly because they feel like it’s their responsibility to protect other mutants from their enemies. And then there’s Quicksilver. The young speedster likes his relaxed life. So, of course, when the opportunity comes, he throws himself straight into danger. A lot of the X-Men have almost zero survival instinct even though they’re otherwise intelligent, and their behavior doesn’t always make sense.
5 Use The Powers
Some pretty awkward moments can happen in every X-Man’s life. Some are downright tragic, but also a bit hilarious. Especially when the fans realize the heroes met an ironic tragic end. Like the mutant who can fly yet dies in a plane crash. Destiny can be cruel, but this brings it to a whole new level. One could argue the mutants in question should have been able to come out victorious. Unfortunately, it didn’t work out well for them in the end.
4 Silly Humans
To be fair to X-Men, they’re not the only ones who sometimes have a poor survival instinct, so do humans. They have nothing better to do than persecute, imprison, or try to kill mutants.
Any sensible person would figure out that going after the powerful mutants is the best way to die or to make certain the more violent of them obliterate the entire human race. Some people simply lack common sense.
3 The Best Hero Isn’t Present
Quicksilver is by far one of the most popular heroes in the new X-Men series. What’s more, his special skills would help the team save the day on more than one occasion. Yet Quicksilver is barely present in the films. And when he showed up in X-Men: Dark Phoenix (2019), the screenwriters wrote him out of the film as fast as possible. Not because it made sense but because Quicksilver would have solved the problem in about sixty seconds.
2 All Over Again
One of the strangest things about the X-Men movies is that there are so many of them. X-Men is an amazing team, no doubt about that. However, there are just as many superheroes with intriguing powers who haven’t had the opportunity to appear on the big screen yet. Making an endless row of X-Men movies feels a bit like rehashing the old, well-known stuff over and over again in this context. Maybe that will change once X-Men finally gets to interact with other Marvel superhero teams, such as Avengers, or maybe the Eternals.
1 The Character Development
One of the problems with so many different timelines is that the character development is inconsistent. Professor X and other X-Men act a certain way in one movie, change in the next, and then revert back to their old ways. That makes watching their film adventures somewhat confusing for the audience. At least Professor X changed in a significant way. He used to have hair and then he didn’t. Some might claim it’s not much of a change but the good old professor knows better.
