Looks like everyone (save Ryan Reynolds) is getting kicked from X-men. Not sure if this is so they can retool the powers of the X-men to but fit inside the exsisting MCU or if they just want fresh faces all around. Kinda disappointed though, even though the movies were for the most part only OK, I really liked most of the younger X-men cast, especially the Quicksilver character who may or may not end up being dead now.

Yep I knew this was going to happen. RIP xmen, going to go down the shitter and with chunks of disney ret con clinging to the down pipe

For obvious reasons, Deadpool is the only show Fox put any real effort into save for Logan, but that had a....lot of bad film before it.

RIP? You know the X-Men movies were all rubbish right (except for Logan, the only good X-Men movie that only starred two X-Men lol).

I hope Disney at least can give us the original X-Men line up. And hey with Disney pushing diversity, they can start with the Giant-Size X-Men issue Storyline form the 70's that revitalized the X-Men comics, as that has a very diverse cast. Storm (African), Thunderbird (Native American) Colossus (Russian), Nightcrawler (German), Wolverine (Canadian) Banshee (Irish)

IDK about that but i wouldnt be suprised if one or both of Xavier and Magneto were black.

I really enjoyed the young cast. McAvoy and Fassbender were top notch. No way they replace them with better actors. The first 2 films were great, although fanbois got upset by some elements. It might be better to let X-Men rest for a few years rather than reboot.

I do hope they keep the theme music. Might be the best superhero theme out there.

Just wondering how humans vs. mutants can make sense when there has been a decade of superheroes and supervillains wreaking havoc already.

Thanks God.


I find the current pool of actors playing X Men as terrible, except for Wolverine, I mean Hugh Jackman did an excellent job portraying the character.

This Phoenix Force bullshit will be ruined by Fox, yet again they will piss on that epic story and make it worse.

Mutant's were born with powers, most of the superheroes in Marvel are given, gifted or the result of a accidents. Mutants are feared and hated due to them not having any control or understanding over said power resulting in the people fearing them for the danger they may posses. Being a mutant isnt even select so people who could be mutants could be bad people and will use that ability for evil, creating the threats humans fear, fearing this next stage of evolution to be a curse more than a gift. Hell some mutants even don't like being mutants.

Obviously the latter. It worked for Spiderman - don't see any reason why they wouldn't stick to formulae that works.

It would either be both or just Xavier. Having a white Xavier constantly stopping a black Magneto from trying to commit genocide on humanity and lecturing him on his evil beliefs doesnt seem like it would go over well.

Nope, you would be wrong.

Although in this day and age, not completely impossible.

This the opinion of one reporter at THR. Nothing is even un-official at this point. We'll see.

The Avengers are seen as super hero police. The mutants are seen as random citizens owning weapons of mass destruction in the palm of their hands and living secretly next door to you planning who knows what because they see themselves as superior to humans.

Spider-Man is leaning towards falling into Avengers category with how they're developing him, but in the comics the fact that he kept to himself and more solitary is what made him more easily flip between hero and "Jameson was right, he's a menace" labeling. There were even times that people speculated if he was a mutant during negative public perception (in world, of course, not to readers).

That’s a very real problem that effects the comics if you ask me, spider man swings by and no one cares but a mutant comes to town and every one loses it.

Though the xmen are also a bunch of assholes who will break mass murders out of jail and then work with them and act like victims in th comics.

[Adamas102]

Nice. Looking forward to a much better iteration of the X-Men. Other than Logan and Deadpool the rest of the movies were either shit or did not age well at all over the years.

...I believe you answered your own question right there.

The funny thing is, I never found "mutants vs humans" to be the real truth of X-Men. Oh, sure, that's the narrative reason - but rather the obvious core of the situation is ultimately "Superheroes vs Supervillains wreaking havoc", with maybe "mutants" getting the blame as a stereotype-as-a-whole for said actual situation. Rather like African Americans being accused of some bullshit genetic disposition for crime when it's, in reality, far far FAR deeper and multiple other reasons.

This whole thing really doesn’t hold water when you have hero’s and villains popping up every where else and wrecking stuff without being mutants. Mabye it made sense in the past but in the current state of marvel/MCU it just doesn’t hold up.
