Hey everyone, with a new installment in the long-running (Fox) X-Men franchise, I thought it would be fun to pause and take time to rank all 14 X-Men adjacent films that have been released theatrically! Deadpool & Wolverine is, obviously, a strange addition to this canon as it was made by Marvel Studios rather than Fox but it still uses a lot of the characters from that franchise. This worst to best ranking will include SPOILERS for every film on this list with the exception of the latest one, Deadpool & Wolverine, as it just released. I hope you all enjoy listening to this ranking as this franchise has a very, VERY special place in my heart, despite its myriad of problems, and I hope you all enjoyed Deadpool & Wolverine!
