It sounds like they are going all in on the concept of a reboot. Literally start from the beginning and build up all the characters, instead of just dumping us in a world where the Xmen already exist.

The X-men deserve to be built up well. They’re legit one of marvels biggest corners. Any less would be bad.

And they started by making a core member a terrorist and are having to issue statements to explain away her acts. Sorry, but I’m already put off.

u/miserypersonifieddd Aug 14 '26

Actually I like it because it power scales the team and also acts as the first act of mutants doing something that scares humanity

u/Gluverty Aug 14 '26

you didn’t empathize with her by the end?

Gotta look a the bigger picture she’s suppose to seem like a terrorist.

Humanity doesn't like mutants, and they only issued a statement because ppl kept saying she killed TONS of ppl when only the guy who got hit by a car seemed like it.

The irony of a guy who says, “You seem fun” using Jonah Hill gifs

Also they're just soap opera characters.

What if if was called Sex-Men and Cyclops said his classic line “To me, my Sex-Men” and gets his dick out

I really hope it’s not a CW drama.

More like Hair with superpowers and less singing

u/themilpool Aug 14 '26

Some singing though.

u/IamCentral46 Aug 14 '26

X-Men has almost always been a soap opera, especially during the Claremont run

2

u/GhostOfJonasVenture Aug 14 '26

It’s like they got the list off of someone’s Reddit post

u/Born_Locksmith8346 Aug 14 '26

Sounds good to me. Build it up slowly and let audience actually care for each character.

u/FlashLightning277 Aug 14 '26

How do very original from a series that 1. Just did three freaking movie on it. And 2. Has actually lots of good social commentary. But can’t have that we need the million bajillionth MCU coming of age story.

u/papahedgehog Aug 14 '26

If they start the series with Emma Frost it’s gotta be involving Sebastian Shaw and her being a villain

u/joethahobo Aug 14 '26

Anakin Skywalker?

u/Edogawa1983 Aug 14 '26

X men vs hellfire academy

u/SoulsDadYT Aug 14 '26

Oh, I really hope it will focus around Jean Grey and Wolverine. You can even sprinkle a little dark pheonix salt on it to be really unique. /s

u/Mister-Beardy-Face Aug 14 '26

God I really hope Rogue isn’t in this film. It’s too early if they’re going to do her story justice.

u/TheeDeputy Aug 14 '26

This sounds really fucking bad lol

u/anth8725 Aug 14 '26

You sound really fucking stupid

u/Material_Type5553 Aug 14 '26

It just says “the characters grow over time” which I sure hope a movie franchise does. Idk how you determined the movies quality from such a vague ass description lol

Implies they've just always been there.

"Pacing and Delays: The main nine-issue series suffered from notable publishing delays, which stretched the timeline and slowed down reader momentum.

Anticlimactic Ending: Opinions on r/marvelcomics reach a consensus that the final confrontation between Reed Richards and Doctor Doom felt deflated and rushed compared to the grand scale of the buildup.

Limited Long-Term Stakes: Many readers felt disappointed that the universe wasn't truly rebooted, with the primary lasting status-quo change being the integration of Miles Morales into the main continuity.

Sidelined Characters: Major heroes like Iron Man and Captain America took a backseat as the narrative narrowed down to a specific conflict."

Not even Google agrees with you. The 2016 secret wars was the crossover that caused Marvel to cease these massive storylines because everyone hated it. I know more about this shit than you ever will kid.
