X men 1 & 2 were also not true to Schit!!!! good movies, but horrible adaptations. WHat happened to yureko being wolverine's ex????? Mystique being Night Crawlers mother? Cyclops being RELEVANT? Sabre tooth not being laughable? Storm actually being from Kenya and portraying that in her accent and character? Ice man not being a kid inlove with kid rogue? Gambit actually existing as a character and not just a name on a pc monitor? etc...etc... Things that could have been stuck to, but weren't.


Yea this needs a REVAMP BIG TIME!!!!! Lord of the rings budget and each movie should be that Epic. If Lord Of The Rings can do it...why not X men???? It has a universe just as huge and as compelling if not MORE!

Oh yeah I know, but Singer still gave use some damn good stuff. If you're gonna change you gotta give us quality in return and I feel he did that. In X3 the changes went WAY too far and what they were changed to stunk the ship. Didn't help that they screwed up my favorite storyline of any comic book franchise.
 
I would reboot it with the original 5 and Xavier. Along the road something happens that causes tension in the team, and have either beast, or Iceman to leave. Then they meet wolverine and several other mutants to join them, creating a bigger team (beast or Iceman comes back), defeats the enemy and thus instilling faith in the team and helps feel more ready for the future.

That's a great idea.
 
yeah but you could also get a crappy movie that is 100% faithful i would rather settle for good ass movies

also for them to be better casting in a reboot than the previously trilogy is damn impossible to say x men casting was great is an understatement
 
They also need to bring Singer back.. Have him do a reboot with the ideas he has. He, i think, understands how to do the x-men comics justice in film. Fox needs to get a 3 film contract with Singer.
 
^ No reboots? Well after X3 killed the franchise id say a reboot is the way to go.
 
No, it's not. Just make a new movie. Change some things if you want, but this "reboot" crap has got to stop.
 
^ Make a new movie? With what? Fox and Ratner killed off the true leader of the x-men (cyclops) Did some weird crap with professor x. And ruined some of the characters.

I'd start over with a consistency in the films that stays true to the comics.
 
They should reboot the films with Singer. And introduce key characters better. And Singer should do his own version of the Phoenix story eventually. There needs to be a need trilogy.

And instead of doing Wolverine spin off like this trilogy did. I'd do a Phoenix spin off. To better tell the story. Because the Phoenix story is really an amazing story and a key part of Marvel comics.

I agree that all this reboot talk annoys me because fans of nearly every franchise (except Spiderman) are talking of reboots. Even fans of Batman want a reboot! Rebooting films constantly is not the way to go.

At the same time, Brett Ratner, and Fox screwed the pooch in The Last Stand with the death of Jean Grey and Cyclops, and the "death" (I have no idea what else to call it) of Pro. X.

I'm split over it, but in rebooting all these franchises, I feel as though it could alienate the audience.

I would just leave the X-men franchise alone for a while. Let much worse films get reboots first, like Fantastic Four, Daredevil, and Ghost Rider.

i wanted a reboot.... The spiderman franchise as a whole are horrible adaption.. they are spiderman in name only.
 
Reboots arent the way to go?

Well if you get a good direct and good writers then reboots end up being gold.

Um Batman Begins already got a reboot and the new franchise has been quite successful.They got a genius in Nolan and amazing writers. And then TDK was born cause of the Reboot.

So reboots can work. If done right.

X-men needs a fresh start.

Get new writers, get a new director. And Fox needs to give the director more freedom.

That won't happen while Rothman is around unless your name is James Cameron
 
Well i believe that Fox can give more freedom only to directors that deserve it. And so far. after X2 the directors have been quite dreadful.

I think they should get someone like Singer and his team of writers. They did well with what they had to work with. And they got great reviews on the tone and realism from the first two films.

A new movie need not be a reboot if it's not a sequel.
 
cyclops and xavier can easily comeback you never see scott's death crazier things have happened on film

Zack Snyder ALL THE WAY!!!!!! Or hell...even Peter Jackson maybe... David Fincher "fight club" style.

Snyder knows his action and with Wathcmen at least it was more faithful than Xmen ALL THE WAY and a waaaay better movie, visually and everything tho it falls far behind TDK

They made good two movies, but again HORRIBLE adaptations. I also don't wanna hear that 40 years of comics ****. They could have taken one of the most successful graphic novels and based it on that. There was no reason why everything was backwards. wolveriine is NOT Xmen. he is an X man and that's it. Those movies were about him and everyone was a supporting actor. In the comics and cartoon, even Gambit has his own sagas without wolverine in them as the lead and they work well. The under used everyone else just to base it all on WOLVERINE???!!!! How annoying. I LOVE Wolverine like any other, but honestly as I grew with the series I realized he ain't **** without the entire team cast. Cyclops is a ****ing bad ass too, as is storm, and jean, iceman, GAMBIT, and hell even kittie are all THE SCHIT!!!!!!! rushed material to make fast money and u can tell. They just thought of the audience they can draw and didn't act on making the comic trully come to life. They only thought if the ticket draw. Market Wolverine cause he is the most popular. Then they should have started with the origin story of Logan and then made X men movies.


The whole thing was done incorrectly.
 
I definately agree that they could of done it better but I like alot of what they have done so far. It's never going to be perfect . I want them to move forward with the same cast but bring back scott .

Lord of the rings was damn near perfect and honetly there are no excuses for how X men turned out. NONE
 
I think they should do a Batman Begins-esque reboot. I know it won't be out in 2011, but a fanboy can dream, right?

No. I don't think its necessary. The franchise is not so bad. X3 was the only movie that actually sucked. They just need a good writer for X4.

we're talking a good adaptation not just good movies. Singer's movies were terrible adaptations in which he based everything around wolverine which is actually supposed to be based on xavier. The team compliments him hence "the men of X"
