They really going to leave his supporting cast from the last two films behind?
Theyd dint reference it and that link doesnt really address it.
TLS was not a great film by any means but the Phoenix being a split personality of Jean's was easy enough to understand and what was done with her was straight forward. DP was a mess. With the scale of the story feeling so small, throwing in a cosmic force added nothing. Jean going nuts didnt make sense. Chastain as the villian was boring and quite unnecessary. Everything about aliens and space was not well done at all. The ending to the film was very satisfactory and I felt TLS had more of an emotional if not bittersweet ending. DP, she just flies off and its over.
Jean’s instability was the natural result of her repressed traumatic memories come flooding back. It happens in real life.
https://www.sciencedaily.com/release...0817132325.htmAt first, hidden memories that can't be consciously accessed may protect the individual from the emotional pain of recalling the event. But eventually those suppressed memories can cause debilitating psychological problems, such as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder or dissociative disorders.
The trauma is what caused Jean to lose control of her powers in the movie. Just like when Xavier’s telepathy went out of control in Days of Future Past as the result of him being emotionally broken after Erik and Raven abandoned him. Psychic powers are linked to mental health. That is an idea that was also explored in Logan with Xavier’s powers going out of control because of his seizures. That’s what Xavier meant in the movie by “the mind of a psychic is fragile it takes the slightest tap to send it in the wrong direction”.
Jessica’s character was meant to be Mastermind stand-in according to Simon Kinberg. However, much of her scenes got cut. Originally it was suppose to be over two hours long.
In the movie Jessica mentioned that Jean had a “hidden power” within in her that attracted the force. I agree that the cosmic aspect wasn’t developed well at all. That was obviously meant to be developed more in sequels that will now not be happening.

The Granov variant looks wonderful.
