Hold on a sec man....

The Spider-Man thing they could do because he was out fighting purse snatchers and shyt. The Avengers were fighting aliens....so they could play it like "well, he slid under the radar until now".

You can't do that with a whole new species, mutants. And a whole team of them, the X-Men. Not to mention, all the villains.

The X-Men/mutants thing is supposed to be a metaphor for racism....so why haven't they been a problem up until now?

You get what I'm saying? Even if you make an X-Men movie, figure out their origin in the context of the movie....and that movie is GOAT level....you still gotta somehow connect all that to the MCU.

So IMO it's not possible to say they already existed. They gotta go the "alternate timeline/reality" route with the Quantum Realm, or the Reality Stone.

Fred.
I agree, that's why it needs to be addressed before hand. It just being addressed connects mutants to the mcu. Like you said, just having mutants pop up would be jarring and lame imo.

No clue how they are going to do it, and with the mutant history being so rich and long it would suck for mutants to just start to show up.

But the start of the mutants need to be addressed before the xmen movie even drops.

Once the movie drops then I hope they slow build the mutants and not jump right into magneto or sinister. Again night of the sentinels would be amazing blue print start. Especially if the do some reset the mcu or mass merging of worlds like they did with ultimate.

I'd love for the opening scene of the xmen movie to be mutants running from sentinels. Even if it was on some days of the future past type stuff.

I think disney should start it fresh and call the first the franchise Uncanny X-men. Magneto has to be the first Villain and all the characters need to have the costumes but modernized. All I know is wolverine better have either the yellow and brown costume or dark blue and yellow in order for me to take this X-men serious.

fukk a villain.... all I ask is that this get Cyclops right.

The next one needs to hold the same stature and presence as Cap, BP, Thor, Strange and Stark.

Let him finally be the leader he was supposed to be and not some side characters that’s weak and more of a nuisance.

What Fox did to Cyclops for 19 years is worse than what anyone can complain about what Marvel did to Ultron and a few others

I read the comics for years and always felt like cyclops was a lame boyscout . He was like a douche version of captain america. Cap was only likable because he was old fahsioned and from another time. Cyclops was from the modern day and had no excuse. I think the movies got him right actually. Plus she had a very :mjpls: reaction to Captain Marvel so i feel like people caping for cyclops are just mad that he represents the quintessential corny white dude :pachaha:

He not supposed to have swag. or be likable, he was the teachers pet who got to lead the team.

I don't think they were hinting at mutants....the reason they said Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver were affected by the Mind Stone is because they couldn't even use the word "mutants" back then.

Keep in mind if these movies came out 4 years ago ("Age Of Ultron") they were probably written closer to 6 years ago. Even "Ant-Man And The Wasp" was announced in 2015. This would've been waaaaaaaaaaaay before the Fox deal was even thought of.

And yeah, I said the easiest way to introduce the X-Men would be via an alternate reality and/or time line.

Fred.

Nah breh, I'm saying they weren't directly hinting with mutants exclusively, but they use language that allows them to keep their options open for future films. It was just as likely they seeding for the inhumans as well (until the tv section of marvel fukked that up); I think feige and company is kinda smart to be just vague enough that they can plug stuff in directly if they get the chance.

I'm just throwing it out there that they've thrown easter eggs in some films to give them opportunities to go into a multitude of directions. :yeshrug:

One thing i know for sure is marvel will at least get the costumes right. multiple versions too
Really all they have to do to modernize wolverines outfit is give him the same uniform as Cap but with wolverines color scheme and a different helmet.


One outfit i hope to see done better is this version of storm. should look more like the left than the right.

Halle literally didn't have any skin exposed, they can at least have her arms uncovered.
not saying they need make her bare her thighs and midriff like in the old school comics

I’d say the general consensus is for the first villains to be government/Sentinel related


Some of y’all really don’t want Magneto to show up until the 2nd or 3rd film tho? Why? The only X Men related character who needs less focus on him would probably be Wolverine.... but I’d love to see Wolverine later be incorporated into an Avengers movie

Because Magneto is played out man.

Same goes for the entire core X-Men team. All of them. Hell, "Dark Phoenix" is still coming out and 90% of the characters in it were in the first movie that came out in 2000.

So let's say, 2ish years from now the MCU drops their X-Men movie....featuring the same characters. That means there ain't been a major deviation from the X-Men movie roster in 20 years.

Magneto should be a threat to the humans as much as the xmen.

Him showing up and the audience having no real understanding of why he hates humans so much takes alot from the character (even fox got this right later on)


The 1st xmen movie needs to show how much humans can suck.

The 2nd move can show why a mutant with hella power would want to separate humans and mutants.

And it gives the xmen a chance to have a bit more training and battle experience.


Magneto showing up 1st would jam alot Into a movie.
From him and Charles relationship and ideology and the xmen forming, character development, human development and the whole mcu issue.


No need to rush into him.

As for the "Marvel humor", you haven't read many X-Men comics have you @Dap-Fishington ? They traditionally banter and talk more shyt, especially during fights than most titles.

Yea i agree we need the militant aggressive mind fukked after apocalypse cyclops. Establish why he is the leader and the contrast since we already have the boy scout with morals leader in Cap in the MCU

That video silly as shyt..... but I agree with her points

Bookmarking this, Cyclops was my boy when I collected XMen and XFactor. They made him a bytch in the movies; all to make Wolverine who I couldn't stand, look better

They need to address what mutants are first. Maybe the X-mens first enemy should be Shield or Sword Nick Fury. So they can establish what mutants are and why society fears them.

Cassandra Nova, Xavier's twin sister, would also make a great first villain

Alot of people's powers come from the infinity stones in the MCU. I wonder if the events in endgame might cause some event where some of the people who are returned from the snappening, now have special abilities as a result. Sort of like how Janet had abilities after coming back from the microverse. The Hank Pym looking suits in the trailer suggest that this could be a possibility.

This could potentially make it logical for the night of the sentinal type arc to be an early storyline since you would have a whole bunch of mutants discovering their powers all at once leading to accidents and panic. The government would quickly look to institute this initiative. With the sokovia accord evening placing the avengers on opposing sides from the new mutants.

Then all the familiar Professor X and Magneto storylines could evolve naturally as a result of those events much later down the road. That would leave room for many new stories initially.


I like that idea but that would kinda eliminate all of their backstories. I think a merging of alternate realities being hinted at in the end credits would work better so u still give them their origins films down the line then we get to that AVX crossover when they start seeing strange events

This is why I can't take your opinion seriously, which is a shame considering you took the name of one of my favorite characters. :Ugh5150:

Imagine @Ironman running around acting like @Napoleon or @Sir Biatch. :ChokedUpMJ:

I swear nobody caped for cyclops like this until the last 4 years or so, which coincides with some sort of new comicbook arc that made him cool for once. But for the past 40 years dude was a lame.
