Yeah I think as fans we've been spoonfed the Fox mediocrity for so long we're going to need to hold their feet to the fire and have a decent compromise we're all not going to get what we want.

@Norrin Radd and dudes who want things a certain way truth to be told I have my preferences that differ but as long as it's dope, respectable to the source material and is a great movie IDGAF.

We've been waiting for so long now the anticipation is killing us!

And Kevin is lying his ass off. He's got storyboards and shyt in the early planning stages.


Yeah, they def already have plans in place. You see how quick they were able to insert Spiderman into the MCU.


I was fine with Mutants/X-Men staying at fox (if they could get their shyt together:beli:), always thought even in the comics x-men/mutant-verse felt like it's own thing really.

My chief #1 complaint was always, not even the lack of quality at times or fukked up story line but lack of risk taking. Marvel made 4 trash ass movies (IM2, IM3, Thor 2 and AOU) and didn't lose a step cause of variety and risk taking.

No Genosha, Marauders, Shi'ar Empire or Omega Red? The constant Charles/Magneto shyt? Mystique? The Wolverine infatuation? No Mr. Sinister? The shytty ass Apocalypse shyt?

That's not even touching FF. They literally, not including the Wolverine solo pics (1 a mess...2nd one good 3rd classic)...made the exact same fukking movie for damn near 20 years....despite all of this creativity at their disposal.

This shyt can't leave Fox fast enough.

It's not even risk taking to me, Claremont pretty much gave them the template to run with but they (Singler and co.) seem to be dead set on going about the hard way. :francis: We should've been close to getting a Storm led X-men team by now but:mjcry:

I wouldn't say it works better as a separate universe. I would say the X-Men and Avengers traditionally don't interact with each other like that. Avengers don' GAF about the mutant plight, and Cyke don't care about no Avengers. So I would like the see X-Men as a part of the MCU, but just on it's world like it is in the MU. Just how Gifted is to the x-verse, how Cloak & Dagger, SHIELD, Runaways and the Netflix are with the MCU. Maybe a couple of characters interacting, some references but overall....nah.

I think the problem is do you reboot the X-Men, and if so do you age up or down?
As long as the the other MCU characters aren't all up in the X movies I'll be straight. X lore is too rich to be bogged down with the rest of the MCU.

the x-men could work for the MCU if they reset their universe after infinity war, which is possible with the infinity gantlet. It would be better serve though on its own.

Yeah. He did the same to Spidey w/ that "one more day" shyt.

Straight up erased the "back in black" storyline, and now no one mentions it

You could easily make 4-5 X-Men & FF flicks and just do after credit scenes (or small Easter eggs) without Avengers shyt.

That I agree 100%. In fact it deserves it.

That's not to say those movies wouldn't still be coming out...just (Bob Arum voice) let it marinate.

Well some of the problems are how do you have a character like magneto doing some of the stuff he has done like hijacking the entire magnetosphere and threatening to reverse the electromagnetic poles and not have the avengers involved when it is a clear threat to the entire world and he has a giant space ship floating in the atomsphere. To comicbook fans you know why but in the movie goers eyes that will lead to questions galore

House of Meh :mjlol:
That was about the time I started to get back into comics and that turned me off to what Marvel was going with the mutants.

I'd have him start off small. Like this way

- IF you wanted to modernize his character for this timeframe and not have him as WW2 era but instead a Hydra genocide victim.

- Have it happen in the late 70's early 80's. He has that chip on his shoulder and meets Charles in early- mid 90's early 2000's. Think like Yugoslavia/Bosnia type scenery that stays true to his culture.

- He sees Helmut Zemo was responsible for the Avengers fighting and Baron Zemo was responsible for his family.

- He starts infiltrating Hydra cells and killing them off one by one. Finds out they were experimenting on " those kind" ( mutants) and the freed ones become his brotherhood.

- Charles and him went their separate ways when he saw nikka wasn't on that peace shyt and opened his school. Again keep it in the 2000's when he opened it. The original X-Men only Goddamnit.

- Maybe to tie in The Avengers Black Widow or a small team are sent to investigate these unsanctioned hits...only to bam....run into the Master of Magnetism.

You could make the FF a brand new item altogether. Their space mission would be taking place during the Infinity War and the comic rays from all the fukkery changed them.

I'm not in the business of b*stardizing our childhood shyt just trying to make it fit.

Maybe I'm making it too hard....:yeshrug:
