Plus with Captain Marvel they're doing a 90s period piece. Between that and Ant-Man pushing back the dawn of the superhero to the 60s, I'm thinking the mutants have been there all along, but some sort of event will awaken the X-gene. Having a reverse House of M with Scarlet Witch is a good event as any.

Hey, how far along is shooting for Avengers 4? Because if its early enough in the process, they could bring the X-Men in near the end of the film to help save the universe, the threat of Thanos and the Gauntlet being enough to bring them out of hiding at last.

Disney's acquisition of Fox will literally not close for 12 to 18 months as it undergoes regulatory scrutiny (and all the other due diligence and poo poo that goes with a loving massive M&A). The X-Men are not showing up in Infinity War 2.

And even if the deal closed and was approved tomorrow, its too late to make any production changes, and changes like adding a new crew to the story are going to be massively time-consuming and expensive. Everyone's going to watch the movie anyways so it's hard to argue that they'll have increased ticket sales to justify the costs.

They aren't going to let Disney do weird poo poo with their brands in the meantime and in the off chance the deal is rejected by regulators (although lol at the idea of Trump saying no to Murdoch).

The addition of X-Men will certainly make the next Marvel "phase" more enticing to people. There's not much reason for them to overcrowd Infinity War 2: Forever War.

NowonSA posted:Ironically Agents of Shield has set up a good approach for how they should handle lots of the existing Fox Marvel properties, let them keep on going and tie in to the MCU when appropriate (which will typically be not at all) while having the MCU barely ever touch on them. Just because they have the license doesn't mean they should immediately lump in all the characters to the MCU or make sure that everything fits in to that framework. SuperMechagodzilla posted:My fave example of this is in Avengers, when everyone is given a DHS folder that says “surprise! Aliens exist and here’s a bunch of footage of Thor, the Marvel version of Superman who is literally a god. BTW it turns out that Old Norse was the correct religion all along.”

All the stuff from earlier shows (like all the Winter Soldier fallout in Agents of SHIELD, or "the big green guy" reference that's in, I think, Luke Cage) were written long before Kevin Feige's putsch.

I get what you're saying but it's probably for the better. I like it when characters stay in their own lanes and corresponding scope and power levels. Crossovers and continuity can be fun but can also be stifling and overly complex to the point that the stories collapse under their own weight. I see signs of it beginning to happen already and tend to gravitate towards the films and shows that have to deal with a fewer cast of characters and backstories.

All we get nowadays are the same newspaper clippings in the background referencing the Battle of New York we've been seeing since S1 of Daredevil. I swear I saw them in The Punisher but just as background decoration.

New Mutants is coming out in March, Deadpool 2 in June and Dark Phoenix in November as far as X-Fox films in post-production (meaning past the point of no return, they will get released). The Gambit film is pretty much dead at this point seeing how it has no cast as you mentioned and Fox isn't going to plan out more X-Films with the Mouse about to take the reigns. Any other film that got announced via a "source" on Facebook like Multiple Man and X-23 is completely dead. Spacebump posted:It's the Trump era, the Republicans own the government atm.

Really would not shock me if reality gets remade at the end of the film and a couple of mutants are in the post credits scene. Avengers 4 is already in post-production because it was filmed back to back with Infinity War and less than 18 months from release. Marvel won't be able to re-write the ending where Galactus shows up to stop Thanos or anything as much as that would be awesome. The best we can hope for is as you mentioned a few mutants showing up in a post-credits scene.

I hope Thanos uses the Gems to break the 4th wall and wipe Whedon's stench away then the studio reveals they rectonned the previous 2 Avengers movies away and all future releases will have Avengers 1 made by Michael Bay and Avengers 2 made by Paul Verhoven and this was being done the whole time they were making Infinity War and that's why the Budget was so expensive. If anything for the shear retardedness that brings.

Yes, I'm applying critical thought to Comic Book Science. Well you see the power was in their minds all along because all the genetic markers that make up the section of the brain that's mutated were triggered by the Gem to flow their powers through their bodies and regulate. It affected their biological mind through their mental mind with a nudge to the micro-organisms within which have some minor degree of instinctual consciousness to kick start the process and "wake up" from their nap. Think of it like midochlorians...

It's going to be interesting to see how they deal with Magneto being a Holocaust survivor. Do they keep him super old or have him get de-aged somewhere along the way? (Or decide in the MCU his powers slow down his aging.)
