Too many useless repetitions

Suspected spoilers-

1. Qin goes to see Magneto

This whole paragraph seems inexplicable, why would she want to see Magneto after killing roven? One is the murder of revenge, and the other is the murder of a friend by mistake. I don't understand what exactly is Qin trying to explore? In the end, it turned into a showdown of power, proving that Jean was stronger than Magneto.

But there is still a scene where the piano explodes Magneto's helmet. It would be better to take this as the first duel between the piano and Magneto, because no matter how you think, Magneto will not be stupid enough to know that he is not strong enough to rush up. Duel with Qin.

The deletion of this paragraph does not affect the plot at all, Hank will still go to Magneto, and Magneto will still be provoked and go to Qin for revenge. And it would be more reasonable to go to the bar to get drunk after the murder. Seriously suspect this was a later reshoot.

2. Qin's Last Awakening

In the part of entering Charles' thinking world, the lines and dialogues are confusing. Charles has not started to persuade, you understand? Was it really a tantrum before that?

It's better to delete this paragraph and change it to the fact that they were beaten and retreated. In the end, Qin suddenly stepped forward to help them, which was a shock. And then some more conversations at the end.

X-Men: Dark Phoenix quotes

  • Professor Charles Xavier: [in tje kitchen] Do you know, this is where I first met Raven. She was just this little girl, and she'd broken in, looking for food. I said she could stay, and that she'd never have to go hungry again. And then, I think I promised her a better life.

    Hank McCoy: And then you took her it from her.

    Professor Charles Xavier: I beg your pardon?

    Hank McCoy: You heard me.

    Professor Charles Xavier: Hank...

    Hank McCoy: This is your fault, Charles. It's your fault she's dead.

    Professor Charles Xavier: Come on, that's not fair.

    Hank McCoy: Fair? No, don't talk about fair. You messed with the mind of an eight-year-old girl. You pushed down all that pain and anger...

    Professor Charles Xavier: Jean?

    Hank McCoy: ...where do you think it's gonna go?

    Professor Charles Xavier: I did that to help her. What I do, I do to help all of them.

    Hank McCoy: Please, come on, please. You still can't see what you did wrong?

    Professor Charles Xavier: It's just...

    Hank McCoy: No, you need to face this, Charles! You need to face it. Come on, admit it to me right now. Come on! Admit it! Charles, just admit you were wrong, please. You still can't.

    Professor Charles Xavier: I really hope you feel better, Hank. I hope that railing on me five minutes after I put my foster sister in the grave has made you feel...

    Hank McCoy: This isn't about me. You know what? I know what I did wrong, okay, Charles? She was gonna leave. Raven was gonna leave, and I talked her out of it. She saw what the rest of us didn't.

    Professor Charles Xavier: And what was that?

    Hank McCoy: This whole time, we've been trying to protect these kids from the world, when really, we should've been protecting them from you.

  • Professor Charles Xavier: There's still hope. Don't do this!
