X-Men looked entirely uninteresting, Deadpool had the whole filmmaking/studio background behind it.

What?
XMEN NEEDED MORE QUIPS IN THE TRAILERS AND COMMERCIALS
Homophobia and Pedophobia. Even though it's 2016 audiences savagely oppress Bryan singer for how he choses to love.

The whole struggle to get it made for so long and it being stuck in development hell. Plus people wanted to see them take a new approach to a character the studio already butchered.
Apocalypse is shit, but at least it's still better than BvS; dawn of snyderfags.

The "Needs More Quips" meme really needs to go.
X-Men: DOFP did much better than Apocalpyse and had the same level of humor.
>>70958724
The ones that cut millions from the budget two days before production started?
>Deadpool
A fun, R-rated for once superhero flick with a great marketing campaign centered around Valentines that that looked like a fresh, interesting take on the formula
>X-Men: Apocalypse
More of the same, with Apocalypse looking especially unappealing in promo shots, and the movie suffering from the Singer-isms that have been holding the franchise down for a while as much as they initially helped it.

But the quips in that movie wasn't even that good.

I guess, but Ryan Reynolds and the whole marketing blitz really went the whole 9 yards as well, they really made that 50 mill work
>>70958650
besides being a wholly better movie, deadpool's marketing was on fucking point.
>>70958650
Deadpool was made by people who actually gave a fuck about the source material. X-men had a director who hates the source material and is more concerned with fucking twinks than making a good movie.
>EL JUSTO PISCINA DE LA MUERTO JAJAJAJAJA
>>70958650
The audience is probably tired of X-Men movies. Deadpool was something fresh
>>70958650
The marketing for Deadpool was better
Apocalypse looks retarded
and it came out next to Civil War and BvS
