Thomas J. McLean on Mutant Cinema: The X-Men Trilogy from Comics to Screen

As part of its ongoing Patreon campaign, Sequart runs a Book/Movie of the Month Club. Patrons get a digital copy of a Sequart book or movie at the beginning of each month, and they’re invited at the end of the month to an exclusive Google Hangout with key people associated with that month’s book or movie. Patrons can ask questions and get them answered on-air.

Sequart held its fourth exclusive Patreon Book/Movie Club Hangout on 7 June 2015. Sequart founder Julian Darius interviewed Thomas J. McLean about his book Mutant Cinema: The X-Men Trilogy from Comics to Screen, which examines the first three X-Men films, scene-by-scene, revealing the comic-book stories that infuse every aspect of the movies. The book also reveals and analyzes the film’s development process (including behind-the-scenes stories), omitted scenes and storylines, critical and fan reception, and box-office performance.

Those interested in joining our Book/Movie Club can do so on Patreon.
