I would want a FF movie where the FF, as teens in the 60s/70s, do their experiment. Doom is there, but does not come along. Accident happens. Doom gets his cut on his cheek. They end up in the negative zone. Bad guy is Annihilus.

Time functions differently in the Negative Zone, they come back and it's the modern day. Doom has fully established himself in the modern day as full doom with all the magic and and tech and running Latveria. Post credit scene of Doom watching news reports of their return, shakes his armored hand "Richards!"


With the exception of them all being teens, I was on board. Grimm is a pilot, possibly an astronaut, so he'd have to have some age on him. Richards could be a Sheldon Cooper type genius and get away with it, but it'd still feel wrong. What I DO hope for, however, is that with the inevitable ethnicity swap, that they make Reed Richards into an African American this time. You'd have a strong intelligent black character who doesn't fall into massive stereotypes like the Torch did, and Reed and Sue's marriage would take on more meaning, especially since we don't actually see very many interracial relationships in the MCU.

I think people's myriad suggestions about alternate earths is the best way to start stitching it altogether.

Whilst I enjoyed my Civil War era crossover spectaculars, I'm not all that up on my Marvel Minutiae. But there are lots and lots of ways to get that reality hopping going.

It's handwavium to be sure, but the single best way to get that job done without messing with timelines.

Heck, Dr Strange could clock some kind of dimensional cascade, causing the tangled mess of X-Men's actual timeline, and try to stabilise it? That'd be a laff.

"Alternate Worlds" probably won't fly in terms of the larger audience.

It's a bit too "comic-booky" (for lack of a better term) to fly.

I think the MCU will just start folding these new characters in as if they've just appeared or were 'always here in secret'.

Just easier that way, and anything else is probably unnecessarily complicated.

Wonder if there's a WB/DC Bigwig out there totally freaking out that their main competitor just increased it's potential character portfolio?

Though arguably, A single studio having pretty much all of Marvel's stuff is likely to mean fewer super hero movies overall?

Those are some of my *least* favorite storylines - both of which have the whiff of 'hot take' about them.

What *is* awesome though is the Ultimate FF's origin, and their tie-in to the 4 elements - that was quite well done.

But yeah, no teen FF, please!

The Last Chancer Who Survived

I watched Logan this weekend finally. Now that I saw it, I feel like that was like the end of the whole xmen movie series. Was it supposed to be? Would it be better to start fresh with Disney and have them mix them in with the current avengers ongoing storyline universe thingy?

its not a bad film - the whole X Men films series are a bit odd in how they (or don't) fit with each other.

I like pretty much all of them to be honest - not quite as good as MCU but they have had some great moments and on screen characters in all of them. Then yu have the tv series as well - The ifted is a bit rubbish - I thought it was a prequal to Logan but i think its another alt universe to the films ?

The X men Universe always had loads of alt realities so they can do what they like with it really without actualy ditching or mrerging them.

It was a wrap to Wolverine's character and since his was the only one of that group still making movies, effectively it ends that series. But remember they have the *another* group going now (ironically Jackman also played Wolvie there) that continues. Dark Phoenix is scheduled for winter 2018.

I would be surprised if they don't start crossing over at some point for cross promotion. Keep in mind, though, that the next X-Men takes place in the 90s, so there is a time gap. Since it is supposedly finished, I would guess that the best you can hope for is a crossover hint in the post credits.

Eh, people always say that about the audience. Audiences were fine with Gardians of the Galaxy being all out there and spacey. Audiences were fine with Dr Strnage. Audiences can probably handle Alternate Worlds stories just fine.

Well, I disagree, and I'd bet that 'alternate worlds' will not be the route they end up taking, and it won't be for some weird talking down to the audience reason - it will just be unnecessary!

So yeah, merry Christmas and Happy New Year too!

Integrating X Men and FF should be easy. Wait for Infinity Stone Arc to end, have big blue do some Gauntlet crap. As a last eff you to humanity, Thanos goes back in time and changes Apocalypse genes and boom, the start of the Mutants! This could cause a chain reaction causing the Richards to do their thing.

I pray they do not attempt to integrate the attrocities that were the x men movies. The Wolverine trilogy was alright. Jackman was a great Wolverine. Ian McKellan and Patrick Stewart were both great for their parts. Purge the rest.

Deadpool can stay, because his movie was awesome, but also because the studio forced them to make a movie that kind of kept to itself. It doesn't really have much crossover with the rest of the bad X Men stuff. Thank god.

They could do that - I thought all the actors playing Magneto and Proffessor were great plus most of the others esp Mistique, Wolverine and Quicksilver. Days fo future past was great - only really found the first and third X men films as being weak. All the rest were great,

Deadpool - everything about that character should be purged in fire, buried deep and never spoken of again.

We'll find out soon enough eh.
