Marvel Films MCU X-Men - Part 4

Not sure Wolverine has an "iconic" costume.

Yes, he has an iconic costume. its the blue and yellow costume.

 

[TheVileOne]

Wolverine does have an iconic costume. Fox producers and directs simply never let him use it.

Came close to using this one.

 

[TheVileOne]

Came close to using this one.

Wrong. They came close to showing that in a scene that never made it into the film. They never actually used it.

I did not say they used it. I said they came close to using it.

 

[Gamma Goliath]

They didnt intend on using it. They made for an Easter egg cameo purpose.

 

[Rorschach2012]

It's so weird we never saw the iconic suit in all those years with Jackman. Lame.

 

[Gamma Goliath]

Not that weird considering who was making those films lol. They just could never get it right.

 

[JimThompson]

They didnt intend on using it. They made for an Easter egg cameo purpose.

You mean you think they shot the scene with no thought of ever putting it in the film? I find that difficult to believe.

They never intended on putting Jackman in that thing and really use it as a costume. It was in a suitcase for the scene at the end when Logan boarded the plane, but that was as far as it went.

Iirc it wasn't anything that could actually be worn. The guy who made it 3D printed it or something so it looked like a real suit but wasn't.

 

[TheVileOne]

I'm glad that scene wasn't in the movie. I would've been ticked off.

 

[psylockolussus]

I hope the Mcu X-Men costumes would have a fusion of the iconic 90s costumes (also seen in the 90s cartoons/90s capcom games) and the Utopia comics era. It would be like what theyve done with the costume of Spider-Man, classic meets mcu style.

 

[sleekstereo]

If Nicholas Hoult is still circling superhero films and does not get the Batman role, would you want him in the MCU?

I will say Reed, but he may be too young.

Personally, I wouldn't consider the 90s costumes the "classic" X-Men. If they were to do what they did for Spidey on X-Men, they'd base them on the late 60s-70s era Werner Roth/David Cockrum costumes. The Homecoming suit is heavily influenced by the Ditko/Romita art of the 60s

Hard pass. There's better actors in that group and I'm not talking about the Oscar winning actress.

 

[SumT]

huge no to Nicholas in MCU.
he's a decent actor, nice looking and all…. but I dont want him in MCU, neither as any x-men actor appearing in the MCU. I want a 100% fresh vibe seeing future movies, nothing that reminds me of Fox era.

no, thank u.

Why wouldn't a good director not want to showcase the female characters and give them the spotlight they deserve?

Because sexism in Hollywood is a very real issue. And people are trying to fix this exactly by putting more women behind the camera:

There are officially fewer Hollywood films with a female lead today than in 2002

Female characters get all the worst lines in films, study says

Female Representation In Movies Has Barely Changed In A Decade

 

[Marvel united]

Hoult and co don't have to be in the X-Men franchise but they're all amazingly talented actors. If Marvel can scoop up Evans and Jordon from the Fox movies, they can do the same for Hoult, McAvoy and Fassbender. Just not in the X-Franchise

They only hire actors who played Johnny Storm.

Jokes aside, both Evans and Jordan weren't iconic in their FOX roles. So while I do see them hiring actors like Hoult, for instance, I don't see them hiring actors like Stewart, Jackman, McAvoy, etc...

But, who knows...

 

[SumT]

there is a huge difference with that example. those actors had a very small run in Fox. Jordan movie wasnt even watched by most of the world.

While Nicholas Hoult has been in FOUR x-men movies, and as recent as this year. So no. just wait 15 years in any case, once he's 40 or something. Right now its too soon, and there are a lot of talented and fresh young actors out there.

Not sure I'm willing to buy into or believe all these so-called "facts."

Well, thankfully there are a lot of people who don't belittle real social issues and not only acknowledge them but are also willing to make a change. And Marvel has addressed that issue by publicly saying there are going to be more female representation in front and behind the camera.

Then you shouldn't be too worried about that. But based on the links you posted, I guess Hollywood is not the liberal, woke and progressive place it fancies itself as and claims to be and most of it was nothing more than a facade.

It's not as liberal and as progressive as they think. That's exactly why conversations about representation of women and minorities have dominated debates in the entertainment industry. There are literally news about this everytime and everywhere.

No.

He'd just remind me on how awful he was as Beast.

But, who knows...

Evans was iconic as Human Torch. Thats his most well known role before he got the role of Captain America.
