Moments of the combined MCU you DON'T want to see

[Yowza]

Redundancy.

I don't want to see the Spider-Man Clone War saga, Ben Reilly, Scarlet Spider etc...everything else is fine

Same. I can deal wit dimensions, but clone just feels....redundant.

I always felt the clone saga could make for a great adaption, the only thing you have to change is have actual clones. Have the story be about someone trying to replicate Spider-man's powers by experimenting on kidnapped people. Make the story about clone Spider-man and not cloning Peter Parker. I think this would work better for a tv show rather than a movie, but it's a great way to introduce a ton of characters at once, Ben Reilly, Kaine, Miles Morales, Jessica Drew, Silk, etc.

I really don't want to see see this.

Make Reed Richards and Sue Storm around the same age when they meet and not some absurd age gap where a adult falls in love with a little girl.

[Silvermoth]

Ew. There seems to be a lot of that sort of thing in the marvel u actually

 

[Silvermoth]

I definitely don't want to see mr fantastic hypnotising skrulls to turn into cows and then poisoning the local village with their "milk".

Seriously still makes my stomach turn

I'd keep the age difference, it's a part of what makes their relationship and Reed himself more textured. People sometimes meet their future spouses before a relationship would be appropriate in real life, it's not really a big deal. All the creepiness comes when you try to impose the idea that if a two people are meant to be that they have this love at first sight thing, which doesn't vibe when you bring in the reality of a 5-10 year age difference that many real life spouses have.


I don't want to see Valeria Von Doom being reincarnated into a fetal Valeria Richards. That ish was weird as heck. Just make Valeria the oldest, honestly.

To be fair, that looks like Sue had a one-sided crush on Reed, who was a bit unfomfortable with it. Although dating someone you knew when they were a child would probably feel awkward. Did Reed watch her grow up or did they lose touch and meet again when she was an adult? The latter option sounds at least a little less weird.

 

[Willie Lumpkin]

Yeah, even though it is canon, let's change it so instead of him meeting her when he's 20 and she's thirteen, they can meet when he's 30 and she's 23 or something. There would still be an age difference, it just wouldn't be creepy.

 

[Silvermoth]

Make her 30 and him 22!

 

[Thör-El]

Thinking about it, most of the arcs I hope the MCU never adapts are Spidey related:
Clone Saga, The Other, One More Day/Brand New Day, Sins Past, Superior Spider-Man, Spider-Island, Spider-Verse. Also that issue of Ultimate Spider-Man when he and Logan swap brains.

 

[Silvermoth]

Aw. Spiderverse would be fun

 

[Xeno]

Carol Danvers losing her memory and falling into a coma as a result of Rogue's attack. I mean, I do want to see Rogue absorb Carol's powers, but everything else? Heck no.

Rogue stealing Carol's powers and getting away with it is something I never want to see in the MCU. I've always despised Rogue because of that. Let her leech off the powers of one of the millions of faceless, disposable mutants instead.

 

[Thör-El]

Aw. Spiderverse would be fun

It's a hell of a wacky premise for live action. Spider characters from multiple eras/dimensions including multiple clones, a spider-pig, a spider-robot, a parallel Spidey's adult daughter and a time displaced Doc Ock possessed Spidey get together to stop a family of vampires. Oh and the vampires are hunting spider characters because it turns out Spider powers are mystical now and that makes them super nutritious.

 

[Kuwolski]

The MCU has never been a direct adaptation of the comics. The concept is all they need. That being said the animated films will likely explore the spider-verse so it won't happen anyway. Better suited to animation at this point.

 

[Spider-Fan83]

honestly, I think they could get away with making them the same age without it changing their dynamic that much....

given that he was a boy genius who graduated collage at like 15-16...

an tho she is a woman of certainly above average intelligent, she finishes school at the normal rate.... she wouldn't graduate collage till several years after him

so he would have already been out in the real world, working in his career field for years... making him seem more experienced/worldly

despite him having the more work experience, she'd have a more youthful, fresh prospective, and social experience (that he missed out on from Skipping grades)

it would just be that their (even at the same age)are at very different points in their live... and each bring a very different experience/skill set to the team that really balance each other out

maybe, even say they went to like grade school/ middle school together, before he skipped ahead to high school/then collage... if you want to have a bite of a history... and they only reunited as adult much

See I love that sort of thing. The style, the flair, the high stakes. I adore it. But it's fine that people have differently tastes of course.

Although yeah that spider totem stuff was very weird!

 

[Willie Lumpkin]

honestly, I think they could get away with making them the same age without it changing their dynamic that much....

But why?

Yeah, change her from being an infatuated 13 year old, because that's sort of creepy, but beyond that, there's nothing wrong with a 7 year age difference among adults.

I've had enough of Fox's 'Let's change this detail for no real reason' that I don't need more of it from Marvel.

 

[Zarex]

I would prefer they keep the age difference with Reed and Sue, but having him meet her as a child brings up the gross issue of "grooming". If they met once and reconnected as adults, that may be okay. But if they kept in close contact it starts looking like Soon-Yi Previn/Woody Allen, Scott Baio/Nicole Eggert, Celine Dione/her creepy deceased husband and other squicky relationships that have been in the news a lot lately.

they should just cast who ever is the best fit for the role(s) and have the best on screen chemistry together, rather their the same age or different ages (within reason)...
actor/actress don't always play their true age, anyway

and just never address their actual age's or the age difference between them in the movies... leaving it up to speculation of the viewer to believe what they want about their age(s)

I was just pointing out that rather they have the age gap or not wouldn't change their characters

 

[LTuser]

I feel like Avengers should only interact with the X-Men if its a cross over or some cameo role to tease an upcoming event. In the comics, I like it when they are in their own mutant world. X-Men don't need Iron Man, Captain America, Spider-Man and those other heroes. Their world is big enough.

I agree. As a collector of the comics in the late 80s into the mid 90s, i loved that they were separate, but still had a few crossovers.. Heck one of MY Fave crossovers was the entire Onslaught saga..
