Same reason Infinity War was a great story for the Avengers.
The problem is that Fox has been ****ing up X-men from the first movie they made. They started with the most popular comic book property in HISTORY botched it so badly it's hard to believe. From the get go they didn't understand the character's motivations, their personalities, the dynamics between them. All of that was abandoned and Singer and Kinberg just did whatever the **** they wanted. There's no investment in the characters. Their personalities change between movies. Fox ****ing sucks for botching this, and they've sucked for 20 years at it.
I think the Dark Tower movie was more faithful to the source material than Fox's X-men series. The only redeeming thing to come out of it was Deadpool, because the idiots behind the X-men series weren't involved.

So you believe Marvel movies need to be about sagas then? I don't necessarily agree.

So Storm and Rogue don't have any iconic storylines? That's disappointing. But maybe you don't need iconic. You just need faithful adaptations to the characters.
