The most recent for me was the Kree in Captain Marvel, two days after watching CM, I saw the first GOTG again on tv. And there was the same Kree, which I didn’t remember while watching CM. GOTG was five years ago.
One good thing about FoXMen was that they didn’t care about timelines or dropping Easter Eggs that will show up five years later.
Dark Phoenix will have very little connection with Apocalypse.

To be fair, you said something like having to remember something from a film in a different franchise five years ago, but this doesn't seem like something you have to remember. Someone who had never seen GotG would not be lost by the appearance of the Kree in Captain Marvel. The films just aren't that importantly connected. Someone who does know the connections can smile knowingly about it, and perhaps expound on it to their friends over beers, but you don't have to have seen both films to enjoy either of them.
This made me realize something...Why wasn’t there ever a fight between the X-Men and Phoenix in The Last Stand?
Apparently I look young
They didn’t have anybody left that could fight the Phoenix. Scott died and Halle Berry was pregnant so all they had left was a bunch of people that can punch and kick people really hard (plus Bobby). Which doesn’t really work well when the big bad has a AOE that severely burns whoever comes near them. The best they could do is what we got.
You dont realize how convoluted that sounds? I get that past storys have written them into this corner but the continuity is a mess so why not pretend Apocayplse phoenix didnt happen and just do a proper Phoenix story.
No mental Blocks? Didnt the first trailer hint AT Xavier blocking certain memories of Jean's parents dying and other stuff and everyone pissed at him. Mostly Beast and Magneto.its a trailer could be misleading but the first trailer made me think he had altered her memories about things. Making you forget killing your parents is a mental block
Jean was far more powerful in the comic version and yet there was still a battle. Jean in this movie has the power of an alien entity that appears to be eating a star in the final trailer. They could have easily written that Jean was holding back like in those versions. There really isn’t any excuse.
