Jake Schreier’s adaptation of Paper Towns isn’t a great movie, but the dynamics between the teenagers were very convincing. If he can capture the YA craze the world felt around 2015, this could be great.

No shot he’s right, we saw the darkest most mature take on Jean in a spiderman film. You think they’re gonna go backwards and go more YA after that? No way, just making big assumptions purely based on their age. The age is clearly for long term stability and to keep budgets down. As well as starting from square 1. Where we’ll see the school be made

it's funny that Sean is careful to not apply YA as a pejorative when X-Men is at it's best when you can balance the soap opera character moments with the social commentary and action

Should’ve been a tv series with episodes based on each character with origin story character growth and how they came to join the team

Those Bryan Singer X-Men movies didn’t age well. People only loved them because they were 12 when they first watched them.

X-Men is inherently YA if you think about it. It’s largely melodrama centered around personal relationships that happens to have big laser fights in each issue. I don’t think it’s wrong headed of the creatives in charge to lean that way this time around.

I ate really hope I’m not being disrespectful my comments cause I agree with everything he’s saying but how can it be young adult when they’re all in their early 20s. I’m thinking of new adult like college age when I think of young adult I think of like middle school, going into high school so or the homecoming trilogy with Spider-Man I don’t get young adult from this at all. I’m severely confused.

They also hired actually good writers this time as well hopefully Disney doesn’t stick their ugly head and mess with the creative team
