Sure maybe not for a main X title but there's room for an side project TV show there.

    More 90's than that is David Hasselhoff's Nick Fury: Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.,it's truly terrible though.

    Will see moon Knight as Ethan hawke is in it really enjoy him as a actor other then that just looking at the trailer it looks so so. His newest movie coming soon The black phone is supposed to be really really good too.
    Do you hear the voices too?

    Really enjoyed the first episode of Moon Knight as well. Somehow, it doesn't feel quite as "Marvel" in tone compared to the others. I hope it stays that way.

    Moonknight first episode was a blast, sadly, it ended right in the good part, rly enjoy it

    today i will see Morbius, a lot of people are hating on it, but from what i heard, is better than venom 1 and 2.

    X-men evolutions was pretty good and very succesful from what i remember, everyone loved back then, and it is one of my favorites x-men media, i rly liked the concept of the young mutants and all, i would not mind a movie or better a tv-show of that, with the current cgi i think it would be dope

    Not a very high bar since both those movies were shit as well, but at least the Tom Hardy Brock/Venom dynamic was fun which I don't think you'll find in Morbius. Much of the hate for the movie seems to stem from the godawful post credit scenes, though.

    isn't a high bar but the media praised, which seems weird to me, we all knew what those sony independent movies are, maybe people were expecting too much after NWH

    And yes the post credit scenes made no damn sense, they wasted opportunity to just throw andrew spider and win over the fans

    Never even heard of this one, but written by David Goyer? I mean, the guy has certainly had a lot of misses, but even those tended to be entertaining, and the hits are pretty top notch.

    Totally. There are so many variations to choose from.

    My dream would be for them to introduce them in the same way the Avengers series ran. Start with 1 character, and build from there. my unpopular opinion would be to not do it with Wolverine. One, he's been done to death already. And Two, and I know i'm not in the majority here, he is overrated.

    Well, I mean, if you want to check it out... and come back with a "fresh eyes" review...I'd love to hear it.

    Can't agree with "two"... but I can give you a "three"

    The best way to re-boot the X-men would be, IMHO, with the OG X-Men: Scott, Jean, Bobby, Warren, and Hank. I don't think they need to start with a single character, though. For one, the X-men are a known quantity now. And for another... Mutants are the ultimate shortcut for origin stories. They don't need to spend the opening act of the movie explaining how these people got their powers... that can be handled in the opening scrawl. It can start pretty similarly to the comics...with most of our primary characters already enrolled in the school.

    Yeah, gearing the X-men to more of a children driven, school adventure/drama type of story would piss of A LOT of sweaty adults, but there's definitely a market for it.
    I don't see how it would piss people off? Half the popular X-Men are students or ex-students of the academy. The only ones always shown to be adults are the original lineup characters. Cyclops, Iceman, Angel, Jean, Rogue, Gambit, Storm, Beast, Wolverine, Xavier, Forge were adults. Despite this, theyve done multiple reboots and soft retcons that changed that line-up all the time. Sometimes Wolverine, Xavier and Storm are the only adults. Usually the only safe bet on who can't be recast as teenagers are Wolvie, Storm, Beast and Xavier.

    Some of those characters are not "Original Lineup". Wolverine, Rogue, Gambit, Storm, and Forge all came later. The Original Lineup is Cyclops, Jean, Beast, Angel, and Iceman... and all of them were teenagers.

    And the objection would not be with them being students. The idea that was floated was not "Students that are also Superheroes" but "Students that are just students". The entire movie franchise would be based entirely around their studies at Charles Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters.

    Depends on what you consider to be the original lineup, the first members of the first issue or the various reboots throughout the decades... I played the safe route of naming the original lineup alongside the lineup of the 90s cartoon, except Jubilee.

    And students that are just students? But they also live at the academy, it'd have to cover all facets of their lives and it could be an interesting way to flashback on characters with vague origin stories. I'd be sold tbh

    But who could possibly find the scholastic shenanigans of powered kids interesting?

    Just ignore that the Harry Potter series is wildly successful despite the reams of problematic messaging it pushes.

    "The Original Lineup" is the The Original Lineup. It's not a matter of debate:

    Harry Potter uses a school as the setting...but, it's the fight against Voldemort's forces that drives the franchise.

    Like I said, A series based on the education of those "gifted youngsters" could make for a good D+ series... but they will never go that route with the films.
