kimberg cant please all xmen fans .....

You do know Kinberg right? You know his resume as a writer?

 

[Ryan1210]

Wouldn't give those dates that much meaning, considering the changes DP2 and New Mutants went through before going into production. They'll change no doubt, but it's good to know they've got other superhero flicks in the pipeline.

I know! Btw 3/13/2020 is Friday 13th so most likely New Mutants will have a sequel.

I know! Btw 3/13/2020 is Friday 13th so most likely New Mutants will have a sequel.

Let's hope it not a dumpster fire, because technically F4 also had a sequel date pegged. But I mean, as long as it's not a raging dumpster fire like F4 was, it should be fine sequel-wise, even if it's not gonna be on that date. New Mutants could go into Nova Roma for all we know or face off against the Technarchy, so it's not like they'll be exclusively horror focused.

Mangold's The Force is scheduled for a 3/1/2019 release and that already has David freakin' Mamet writing the script, so I wonder if he'll tackle an X-23 solo film right after and get it by 2020.

There's also Gambit, X-Force, and another X-Men film probably there.

 

[Erik Lensherr]

2019: Gambit, X-Force
2020: Dark Phoenix sequel, New Mutants sequel, FF movie
2021: Alpha Flight

[Leo Zelinsky]

We want the sub-forum!

Maybe smoke something so you can cool out.

 

[Leo Zelinsky]

6/7/19 - X-23 (Not sure bout this 1)
11/22/19 - Gambit
3/13/20 - New Mutants II
6/26/20 - Deadpool III
10/2/20 - X-MEN VIII
3/5/21 - X-FORCE

6/7/19 - X-23 (Not sure bout this 1)
11/22/19 - Gambit
3/13/20 - New Mutants II
6/26/20 - Deadpool III
10/2/20 - X-MEN VIII
3/5/21 - X-FORCE

X-Force movie is definitely 2019.

 

[Smilodon]

Would swap out DP3 and XF though, Carnahan is already writing it and I think one of the writers said it'd come before DP3. Mangold has The Force and Taylor Sheridan so who knows where X-23 will land.

 

[Erik Lensherr]

Kinberg: "Deadpool 2 is going into production this year. Then X Force, which is a combination of Deadpool, and Cable"

[Leo Zelinsky]

would swap out dp3 and xf though,

X-Force - 6/'19
Alpha Flight - 3/'21

 

[Mr. Peanut]

I think an X-23 solo movie should wait a few years until her actor is at least 15 or 16.

Then why bother with Shi'ar etc

Again you want people to get excited for some things but not others

For me it comes down to this, if you're gonna try to redeem DPS on film why offer me again a version that is far from the source?

I'm guessing Kinberg knows that and is why according to THR this version will "hew closer to the source material".

Why does it even matter how close they follow the source material? All that should matter is whether or not the movie is good.

That should be around 20/21ish I think.

Because good CBMs are faithful in adapting their source material. There's artistic liberties involved certainly, but how they adapt it matters. No one is expecting a 1-1 translation, but anyone can look at the X-Men the last decade and tell you they're trying to be more faithful to the comics.

 

[Leo Zelinsky]

Kinberg:

Kinberg also mentioned Alpha Flight & Exiles... So they have to figure in somehow.


But every X-MEN film so far has gotten a sequel so that complicates things I wish these were all new IPs that'd be something!

 

[Smilodon]

Would be very interesting if there were another Josh Boone out there who came to Fox and pitched an Alpha Flight trilogy, lol. But those are the kind of creatives we need in the X-verse.

But why does it matter? Why is "matching up to the source material" a metric that has any impact whatsoever on whether or not a comic book movie is "good"? A good movie is a good movie regardless of how it matches up with some completely separate story that it happens to be based on.

It seems almost like an OCD thing to me. Like people are so obsessed with how one thing matches up with another thing that it overshadows the actual quality of the story in their minds.

Alpha Flight is definitely happening. FoX loves Canada since the days of using cheap Canadian voice actors on X-MEN The Animated Series.

Make an Original IP then instead. This is X-MEN make it look like frickin X-MEN

There's very obvious nitpicking that people use to drag good films, and then there's flawed misunderstandings of source material that lead to poor creative decisions. I agree that a good movie is a good movie, it's just that good movies in this genre are generally ones that understand the source material and do a good job of adapting it. Not the defining metric, nor should it be, but it does indicate a certain level of quality and thoughtfulness that goes into it. (Do I care that Thor is underpowered in the MCU? Or that we may never see Elektra be killed off by Bullseye? Or that Stryker wasn't a reverend in X2? Or Magneto killing Nazis in FC? Nah, but in a bad film these elements become amplified and less forgivable)

 

[EnDz0n3]

so do u want jubilee in dp or not.

I'm touched that you care about my opinion either way.

I also think it's adorable that you think everyone should take what Kinberg gives them and just shut up.

 

[Mr. Peanut]

Again...why? Why is there an arbitrary limit on how heavily you can alter a concept? Would using an original IP necessarily result in a better story? I don't see how it would.

Faithfully adapting a concept, heavily altering a concept, and creating new concepts are all just tools for storytelling. None of them make a story good or bad by themselves.


And it's not just X-men that gets flack for lacking faithfulness, BTW. All comic book movies have received varying degrees of criticism for their differences from the comics. But it's such an arbitrary criticism.
