Patrick Stewart Returns As Professor X

[Iceman]

Overhyped. It's cool for about 30 seconds. Utterly meaningless in the grand scheme of things.

That’s what cameos usually are right?

 

[TheVileOne]

I don't think they were well integrated.

 

[KaijuDude1992]

I have to agree with Vile on this one. The scene was pretty much pointless IMO and way overhyped in those trailers, but its cool if people enjoyed it for what it was.

Spoiler

My favorite part was definitely the reference to the 90's animated X-Men cartoon though.

 

[Scarlet Spider]

It was great seeing Sir Patrick again I just don't think it was worth his time coming back for this.

Still, I'm a sucker for fan service.

In a way, this kind of makes the first X-Men the first MCU film.

Not really.

 

[AvengerPA]

My audience applauded when Professor X appeared.

 

[Arachnerd]

If anything, it was nice seeing Patrick Stewart in the role one last time.

I also like how this Xavier

Spoiler

wasn't portrayed as a complete prick like I think some folks were expecting. Him quoting that line from Days Of Future Past worked not only for the nostalgia factor alone, but that it applies well to Strange's character arc.

 

[psylockolussus]

his return was probably a little tribute to the foX era which truly kicked off the superhero movie era just like Tobey's Spider-Man movies.

There's a reason why Patrick Stewart was left off in the marketing like posters.

Spoiler

We are absolutely going to get a different actor for the Professor in the future though I don't know if I could say the same thing to Mr. Fantastic and Black Bolt.

This was a great surprise! Very cool

not really as there wasn't even a mcu in 2000.

There wasn’t an MCU in 2002 but some fans like to think that Tobey’s Spider-Man is part of the MCU now

 

[Spider-Fan]

I think the Fox X-Men films and Raimi Spider-Man are not in the MCU, but they are in the Marvel Cinematic Multiverse

They are connected because of these new films... but it still doesn't make them MCU. Same goes with Venom, Let There Be Carnage and Morbius. Connected to the mcu but not mcu films.

Pretty much how I see it.

 

[Primal Slayer]

Great seeing him. Didn't expect much so even with the disappointment I had with those scenes, it didn't ruin anything for me. He was there to remind people of the X-Men. Now the real reboot can begin being built up.

 

[Stark Bauer]

My audience applauded when Professor X appeared.

I was the first one who applauded. I am simply the happy the man is still alive and well and acting in his golden years.

 

[Superhero 101]

My audience went nuts when he came on as well as the other “Fox” superhero

Yeah I was surprised with the other one.

 

[Superhero 101]

Also the 90s X-men theme when he rolled in was great

I'm having an MCU marathon at the moment and plan on watching Raimi's and Webb's Spider-Man films after Loki. Seeing as how the Multiverse opens up, it seems like a good way to watch them. Same with the Venomverse films.

I like to make things connect with the MCU in my own way. This even goes for the Netflix shows and AOS. Even if they're all variants.

 

[The Caped Knight]

He looked like a version of Xavier from X-Men the animated series, rather than just Professor X from the fox films. They even had the theme play as he entered.

 

[Lip]

I said multiple times in the MCU X-Men thread that bringing FOX X-Men back, before even introducing the MCU ones, wouldn't make sense.

Maguire and Garfield had some story to tell. Some (emotional, btw) closure. Prof. X Had nothing. And that's not even the FOX one.

They didn't mention mutants, the X-Men or the MCU Xavier. And there was no story to close from FOX either. It was for what, then? To see him in that costume?

It didn't work for me.

 

[Iceman]

I think the Fox X-Men films and Raimi Spider-Man are not in the MCU, but they are in the Marvel Cinematic Multiverse

So MCM - we have a new official term. I like it

It fit so well.
