X-Men (2000) Review | MCU L8R [FREE]

(This is a free edition of MCU L8R, POST's Marvel Studios review podcast available exclusively at postwrestlingcafe.com)

Ahead of Deadpool & Wolverine’s release, Rich Fann & WH Park look back at Fox X-films starring the titular characters. This week’s edition starts the original trilogy proper with 2000’s X-Men. Brent Chittenden of True North Nerds returns to bring his thoughts to the table for the film that started it all.

The trio discuss the difference in the film’s appreciation 24 years ago to now, the elements of a proto-MCU contained within (through X-Men production assistant Kevin Feige), and some fun trivia pieces along with their takes on the film’s plot. They finish up answering some listener questions from the forums, as well as Brent & WH’s comic recommendations.

In the MCNews: Giancarlo Esposito hints at an MCU role that includes a TV series, and Deadpool & Wolverine lives up to Kevin Feige’s warped goal.
