X-Men: The Last Stand
Summary
Thanos ' Snap inAvengers : Infinity Warsplit superhero picture show history in two , but anX - Menmovie had already boast a similar second more than a decade earlier . Many baddie have threatened the earth inthe Marvel Cinematic Universe ’s timeline , and the ten - Isle of Man have confront a encompassing variety of enemy inFox’sX - Menmovie franchise , but two scoundrel stomach out due to their Brobdingnagian great power and their impact on the Avengers and the X - man : Thanos and Jean Grey .
Both the Avengers ' conflict against Thanos inAvengers : Infinity Warand the X - Men ’s confrontation with Jean Grey inX - Men : The Last Standseem like a matter of destiny . Thanos teased his program sinceThe Avengers ' post - credits scene , andJean Grey ’s Dark Phoenix personabegan descend to the control surface during the X - Men ’s battle with Magneto in 2000’sX - Men . However , this is n’t the only law of similarity between these two Marvel villain powerhouses . While their abilities are different , they used the same attack in their respective movies , only eleven year apart .
X-Men The Last Stand’s Jean Grey Did The Snap A Decade Before Thanos
Jean Grey’s Phoenix Force Turned Many People And Objects Into Dust
In 2006’sX - workforce : The Last Stand , Famke Janssen ’s Jean Grey add up back from the utter inan version of Marvel Comics ' Dark Phoenix Saga . Similar to her laughable book twin , Jean Grey gave in to vehemence and begin destroying everything in her track . Her first dupe was Cyclops , who got turned into junk by Jean ’s uncontrolled Phoenix index . before long after , Professor X himself buckle under to Jean ’s mystical business leader in the exact same means . And inX - mankind : The Last Stand ’s final struggle , Jean Grey decompose mutants , soldiers , vehicle , and construction before Wolverine killed her .
Contrary to the extraterrestrial nature of the Phoenix Force from the comics , ten - Men : The Last Standexplains that Jean Grey ’s interior great power is"the Phoenix " , which take control condition of her body .
Jean Grey ’s telekinetic powers inX - Men : The Last Standmake her seem much more powerful than the MCU ’s Thanos , who needed six Infinity Stones to perform the Snap ; and even then , he almost died in the process .

Why X-Men: The Last Stand’s “Snap” Didn’t Work & Infinity War’s Did
Thanos' Snap Had A Better Set-Up Than Jean Grey’s Dark Phoenix Transformation
Jean Grey ’s disintegration powers are more brutal than Thanos ' Snap . Whereas the Snap erase each individual ’s soundbox and soul from cosmos , Jean ’s telekinetic attacks rive their victim apart piece by bit . However , Jean Grey ’s victims do n’t have nearly as much dramatic weight as the Snap ’s . The casualties inX - human beings : The Last Stand ’s concluding battle are either nameless characters or small opposer , and Jean Grey ’s murder of Cyclops and Professor X had piddling to no worked up set - up . Thanos ' Snap , on the other handwriting , was preceded by the Avengers ' increasingly desperate efforts to block up him , which conclude in a tangible , universe - wide disaster .
All previous movies set the foundation for Thanos ' Snap , one way of life or another .
Jean Grey ’s translation into the Dark Phoenix was teased byX - MenandX2 : X - Men United , but the enfranchisement ’s overarching plot line never seemed to be lead in that direction . X - Men : The Last Standfollowed up the"mutant vs. humans"conflict from the old two motion picture , but developed the Dark Phoenix plot line in parallel , leading to an overstuffed and rudderless plot that did n’t do either storyline justice . Avengers : Infinity War ’s tragical closing was the main destination of the MCU ’s full Infinity Saga , and all previous motion-picture show set the foundation for Thanos ' Snap , one way or another .
