• Days of Franchise Past: The Continuity of the X-Men Film Franchise
    Aug 13 2022

    For this episode of From Duck Till Dark: Outside the Marvel Studios, host and producer George Sirois takes us back to FanExpo STL, where he gave his second pop culture-based presentation at any convention. This was a topic he had been picking at for the past three years, one that is very near and dear to his heart. As a fan of the 20th Century Fox X-Men films, he had heard many fans objecting to the loose continuity compared to the tightly woven MCU, and he was finally able to address all the continuity issues at once and discuss how the films are not as disconnected as people think. Not even as much as the filmmakers themselves thought.

  • Dark Phoenix (2019) - Season One Finale
    Dec 17 2021

    In 2019, Disney completed the acquisition of 20th Century Fox's film and television assets - including the Marvel properties X-Men, Deadpool, and Fantastic Four. Therefore, the latest installment of Fox's X-Men films, Dark Phoenix, became the final one in the franchise. By the time it was released in June of that year, the Marvel Cinematic Universe had already given us Captain Marvel and Avengers: Endgame, with Spider-Man: Far from Home ready to go, and Dark Phoenix came and went from theaters with very little fanfare.

    For this season finale of From Duck Till Dark: Outside the Marvel Studios, we'll take a look at Dark Phoenix and see if it deserved a better fate at the box office.
