When it comes down to it, I only wish Marvel could get the rights back to those two you mentioned. Infinity War just won't be the same or as epic as it could be without Silver Surfer and Galactus.
I agree 100%.
I have no interest in X-Men coming back to marvel any time soon. And especially no merging of the current Fox X-Men universe---that would be ridiculous.
The X-Men movie clear there are literally hundreds of thousands of mutants or MORE worldwide. When Prof X goes into Cerebro the entire globe lights up with mutant locations ----Saudi desert, Antarctica, Amazon rain forest, etc.

To try to pretend that hundreds of thousands of super-powered mutants exist everywhere would diminish the handful of heroes MCU has introduced.

If MCU ever gets it back in the 2020s maybe, they would have to start small with only a few dozen at most mutants and make each new one found seem like a big deal.

Marvel will never get X-Men back, unless they buy Fox!

On the other hand, the Fantastic Four and their related characters... it's possible.

As a big fan of Marvel comics I've always felt even in the comic book world the X-men just didn't fit right. They are a large enough universe of their own that they could exist perfectly fine not set in the same time as all the other Marvel properties.

You cannot prove this, Your point is moot

3- considering certain comment I've read around the 'net I don't blame him;

But when fans are paying to see your movie, You should always tread lightly

4- which someone said happened even with those crappy Batman movies that bombed so hard ;

Someone said???......lol

5- I'm not sure I'm following you...

6- overseas people don't care about that, few people read comics, but many remember the X-men cartoon from the 90s;

So are you saying that overseas fans don't read comics or no one in general reads comics?

7- we have to see how many of the people who go see CBMs are FANS that drink every idiocy about the director and cast on the internet.
We shall see next week

I still haven't figured out how to reply to each line, So forgive me

Green Lantern was pretty good. It certainly wasn't great but anybody who gushed about it was a lot closer to right than the people who savaged it.

Sorry

Oh, I'm still hoping this lives up to Chronicle.

The goalposts are exactly where they've been from the start.

You are probably younger than I am. When the X-Men started in 1963 and thru 1970 there was a grand total of about 20 mutants introduced.

A very manageable number to add the existing non mutants heroes.

Those low numbers are the only way it could fit into the MCU.

But obviously I'm all four the FF to join the MCU----as soon as possible.

Definitely in the older days. The past few decades though it would be insane.

Well I'm glad the movie has 1 fan. No movie should be completely fanless.

My dad likes it too. Though that's not really saying much. He likes all comic book movies, or anything with action.

It's not about the quality of the movie itself of course, but it seems that people around the internet were negative from the start, even with "fist ass" I didn't see such pre-release negativity.

It was savaged because it was bad, there were a few good scenes (that were all in the trailers of course) but everything was like someone broke it and hastily put the pieces back toghether.

It's funny how 1960s marvel had just a few archetype heroes

The govt made hero------------Cap
The self made tech hero--------Iron Man
The alien god hero--------------Thor
The tragic "hero"----------------Hulk
The accidental hero--------------Spider-man
The genetically altered heroes--Inhumans
Non powered spy heroes--------Nick Fury/Shield

The accidental hero team-------Fantastic Four
Self made genetic hero ---------Ant-Man/Wasp
Accidental hero II----------------Daredevil
The reformed villain/heroes----Hawkeye, Black widow
Outsiders in their own domain--Namor, Ka-Zar, Panther
Alien heroes----------------------Surfer, Mar-vell

The mutant heroes--------------X-Men (about 10 "good" mutants)

That sustained marvel for nearly a decade.

The mutant protest rally in X-Men 3 had a dozen times that number mutants in one room!

You must have missed out on all the rage towards Michael Bay and producer Don Murphy up to and during the release of the first Transformers film. Soooo much butthurt.

Just wait, in a few years it will be a cult classic and in a few years more it will be a misunderstood masterpiece.

It'll be like Nicolas Cage. Except it will be good.
