I'm not excited about MCU X-Men.

If it has the same tone as the rest of the MCU it might be worse than the Fox movies.

So let’s take account for a moment that a lot of the people in the Marvel Entertainment side are either comic folks or work really close with the comic writers.

What do you want?

X-Men has always been melodramatic almost soap operatic with obvious social overtones...you could read an X-Men comic with absolutely no action in it, and it's still as entertaining as when they are fighting the Sentinels or Brotherhood or the Hellfire club.

I don't think you're going to get this in a barely PG13 universe with dreams of kids product placement abound. Fox had the tone right, most of the casting right, they just did not give a fukk about the source material.

Personally, PERSONALLY...I don't even think it should be a movie. It should be TV series. If it was made like Game of Thrones, with Game of Thrones budget...it could be thee best show ever. It should be a TV-MA show on FX or HBO or Netflix or something, but I know that's not going to happen with one of the most valuable fictional properties in all of media.

I mean just imagine all the factions intertwining over a multi season arc...Brotherhood, Hellfire Club, Genosha, Stryker, Sentinels, Shi'ar, Professor Xs relationship with Juggernaut, Magneto being an antihero, Mr. Sinister and Apocalypse collaborating. Colussus's heel turn after his sister dies...White Queens heel turn. A proper Dark Phoenix saga...you can't do this in one movie. Cable/Strfye/Rachel Summers and the X-cutioners song...

Moreover you don't have to worry about the inevitable continuity issues the MCU is going to have because...where the fukk have mutants been all this time.

That shyt would be epic and you can't do it in movies...but you can do it on TV.

I wonder could a television show consistently give them the budget they’d need to be a proper Xman show though.

I know AOS did a pretty decent job with GhostRider but then y’all hated InHumans.

Then when it comes to eps..... are we doing 8? 13? Or 22-24 when then niccas gonna start whining and bytching about

I think if people can suspend their disbelief that mutants are real and humans can fly, they need to get over “where them mutants been”

If it went to Disney plus I'm sure it could get 50 million for a 10 1 hour episode season, and because it's TV you don't need super famous actors or every episode to have a 30 minute action sequence.

I don't have Disney plus, but I would easily sign up today for it if it became a TV show. And I'm sure I'm not the only one.

DeWanda Wise has the perfect look. :takedat:

DeWanda has been my choice...but Yaya DeCosta looks the part to a Tee.

Definitely. For me Uncanny X-Men #186 is one of the best X-men comics ever.
