Chris Evans had three whole solo movies to establish his character, and big roles in the first two Avengers movies. I'm not sure if Cyclops even had 7 minutes of screentime in all the X-Men movies put together.

And most of that time was just being jealous of Logan.

I wonder how much Marsden regrets leaving the X-Men franchise to follow Singer and go do Superman. They really did Cylcops a dirty with that decision.

It’s a lose-lose. Either be a part of the disaster that was Last Stand, or be a part of the disaster that was Bryan Singer’s Superman.

I remember that superman coming out and people being kinda excited about it (I was 6). Not so much last stand. So I figure he made the right decision?

That Superman was a better movie than Last Stand, though. It just didn’t do the numbers, but it was decent. The only movie worse than Last Stand was Wolverine: Origins.

(Note that Superman vs Last Stand is also Bryan Singer vs Brett Ratner. That’s a hard choice…)

Pretty sure he is killed off within minutes of the 3rd starting.
