Just got back from Xmen Apocalypse and I have to say, how the hell can the mutants be the underdogs? We have three trilogies of movies showing how totally fucked in power mutants are.
>X1
Mutants infiltrate the US Government and high level international summits. And the "good guys" are the private child soldier army with military hardware in there basement and a spy machine that can find and read the thoughts of anyone on earth. Which is pretty hypocritical when the "bad guy" is a registation act. (You need a liscene to drive a card but Mind Control and Massive Destruction are things that no one should have on record)
>X2
A mutants with a MEDIUM power level solos the entire secret service and would have easily killed the president if it wasnt for dumb luck
Turns out that same civil rights destroy spy machine can also KILL ANYONE ANYWHERE with a thought and he almost let global super genocide happen TWICE
>X3
Magneto shows he trash megatmstructures with a thought. And Jean is an unstoppable kill monster that would have destroyed everything if wolverube didnt hapoen to be there to kill her
>First Class
Oh hey, a pychic can use her powers to cause a nuclear armagaeddon , theres one dude who is literally unkillable unless he lets you hurt him (or is mind controlled to let you) and Magneto once again proves everyone right by taking over the two most advanced weapon platforms on the planet at that point.
>Dofp
A mutant uses his pychic powers to take over the presidency and his brother tried the same thing before he got shot. The shapeshifter easily breaks into every high security local you could imagine and can kill anyone. And oh yeah the "Holy shit Magneto" counter rises when he shows he can rip cities apart like lego blocks
