New Mutants should have stayed theatrical. Because of the delays, the hype for this film has grown with it. Would it gross $1B? Absolutely not. But it would make a whole lot more if it hit theaters in 2020/2021 than it would have with its original date in 2018.
Theres no denying the last 2 X-Men team franchise films haven’t been critical darlings, but they’re also capable of having very successful films as we’ve seen more often than not between X-Men, X2, First Class, Days of Future Past, Deadpool, Logan, and Deadpool 2.
But New Mutants seems to be delving deep into the comics by using Demon Bear. As a long time reader of comics, I’m very, very excited about New Mutants. If its bad, it is what it is. We’re getting a restart with the MCU, but I have faith for FoX-Men universe is going to end on a high note
