KManX89 Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Conglomerates aside, I can't believe nobody is talking about the fruits of this deal... We may FINALLY get the Dr. Doom and Galactus we deserve, not to mention Kang and Magneto and even the Super Skrull joining the fray. This deal almost had to go through with the razor-thin prospects post-IW prior to the deal. Less we forget that Fox had access to the best Marvel villains and after Thanos, I'm hard-pressed to name any villains they still had the rights to to take over as the new big bad. Shuma Gorath is the only one that comes to mind. I'm afraid I have some sad news for those of you hoping to see Hugh Jackman reprise his role as Wolverine in the MCU, though: Jackman says his time as Wolverine has come and gone, but maybe this means we'll finally get to see Wolvie in the suit played by whoever they decide to recast in the role (he's already backed Tom Hardy to replace him in the MCU). Who knows? Maybe we'll get a post-credits scene in Avengers 4. It hasn't wrapped up production yet IIRC, so there's still time for them to shoehorn it in.

MacReady Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Might be good for X-Men though. I'm still not sure if I'd like to see X-Men join Marvel or have X-Men have their own universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On their own, they probably continue to get pigeon holed into the same general racist storylines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE DUKE Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Maybe if Disney buys up all the franchises it will force someone else in Hollywood to actually think creatively and produce something new. Probably not, but one can hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta bring in Kevin Feige and keep Kathleen Kennedy and any other higher up the f*** away from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
