Can the X-men really carry an entire saga of films before people get bored with the characters? I honestly don't think so?
>>154883308Just shoehorn spiderman, High Jackman and/or Deadpool to every other film
>>154883308Do you have any idea how many X-Men characters there are?
>>154883308They won't only do X-Men films, it''s just that the plot throughline will be mutant related. It's like the Avengers in the Infinity Saga, they were the crux but plenty other characters had films of their own.
The MCU is just going to become the X Men universe, with occasional cameos from aging ass Phase 1 actors, and like Miles Moralis, isn't it?I mean, that's probably better than trying to get people to care about the Fantastic 4 and Son of Wakanda or whatever the fuck.
>>154883308The X-Men at the moment can't carry their own comics. The MCU survived on the shoulders of RDJ's charisma.They might if they play their cards right, but considering what we know so far, it might be shit. Personally, I'm not interested.
Just revolve it all around Spider-Man.
>>154883308Screen cap this. What Disney is going to do won't work.>the X-Men are not traditional capeshit, but psychic sci-fi wearing the skin of capeshit (think Firestarter, Akira, Slan, etc), making them incompatible with the MCU formula>Feige has been established as preferring comics made from the 2000s and onwards to pull from as influence (for a lot of reasons, but mainly because he has bad taste) and the 2000s and onwards either have horrible X-Men comics or no comics to speak of which means they're fucked>the X-Men require a large budget due to just how many characters have powers which means characters will be written out entirely, merged for the sake of efficiency, or be dumbed down>Feige is retarded and avoids covering material that previous movies not made by the MCU already did for fear of comparisons, meaning that large chunks of Claremont's X-Men that made it to the Fox movies are either going to be absent or be pushed much further along>the MCU notably pulls a lot from live-action and animated adaptations which means even if Feige doesn't get his way, a lot of the new X-Men movies will be repetitive as shit>the X-Men are overwhelmingly white and straight which is at odds with Disney's pro-DEI/ESG agenda to get free money from Blackrock except Disney doesn't have the luxury of pointing to multiple live-action adaptations of the X-Men as justification for changes>a good chunk of X-Men stories are alien sci-fi adventures which is something the MCU is STILL struggling with>Disney wants to make Jean Grey into the protagonist despite the fact that Rogue (who replaced Shadowcat in this department) and Cyclops are far more suitable as co-leads
>>154884243Really, the biggest problem the MCU X-Men have going against them is the inherent problem of trying to adapt a superhero comic book that was pretty much made for TV but not film. It's the same issue both the X-Men and the F4 had in their respective film franchises.
>>154883308they can carry it if the writing is good. They can't if it's bad. Who fuckin knows really? It's all just up to movie quality really.
>>154883308Only 4 years?How many series and movies can they produce in just 4 years?
>>154884697What I wanna know is, how can they all revolve around mutants?
>>154883513>Do you have any idea how many X-Men characters there are?Do you have any idea how many of them are basically overlapping the same character archetypes or overlapping the same roles within team books?>>154883736If that's the plan, they'd better get used to the kind of box office the average Fox X-Men movies got being the ceiling for MCU movies. People who didn't care about X-Men or Wolverine aren't going to show up for X-Factor or X-Force or whatever, at least the MCU as it's been so far offered more variety than just "mutants but this time they're working in a circus", "mutants but this time they're black", "mutants but this time they're at school", etc.
>>154884776I doubt something like Ghost Rider and Nova Will be heavily tied to mutants, but other properties can converge easily.>BP3 is already rumored to feature Storm>The next Avengers iterstion can contrast the team being goverment sanctioned to the X-Men being seen as a revolutionary organization, settimg up conflicto.>The FF have Franklin, who, if they decide to portray as a mutant instead of following Slott's (retarded) retcon, is an easy link for both teams to interact.>Spider-Man already set himself up by his relationship with Jean in BND, not to mention his role in creating the universal inhibitor.
