I'm good with none of them.
If Ryan Reynolds is in control of Deadpool, then I could tolerate another Deadpool movie.
The good actors in the X-Men have done their time and bowed out. The bad ones...there's not really many that are bad, but their time is just as up. There's some that were underutilized, but their ship has sailed.
I could also use a break from the X-Men. If they get right into, it'll be Batman vs Superman too soon after The Dark Knight trilogy all over again. Even if I liked Batman vs Superman, it would still have been too soon.
The TV series Gotham came along not long after The Dark Knight trilogy, and I couldn't be bothered because it was too much Batman in too little time. They tried forcing it with Ben Affleck, but I could easily go another decade without a new live action Batman.
The dust is barely settling on The Dark Phoenix movie; it's not even on video yet. James Marsden could have done more as Cyclops, Olivia Munn maybe too. I feel for them as much as anybody that their talents were underutilized but as far as I'm concerned, they're all done.
In regards to your Batman comment I am definitely ready to move onto the rest of the Bat-Family minus Batman for a while. After 8 solo movies along with 2 other appearances.. I’m ready to see Nightwing or Batgirl. But instead we’re probably going to get three more solo Batman movies before Robin even shows up in this universe. |

How long will people have to bring up Transformers and Fast and Furious as being the shining beacons of the scourge of Financially Successful/Popular movies before it's a trope or cliche to do so?

We are way past that point. The worst part is that the same people who bring up this worn out trope are the first ones to howl about financial success when of the movies they like does well at the box office.

Dream bigger than copy and paste. Are you some kind of evangelical gnome put here on this board to preach the evils of Disney and the MCU? If so, it's an interesting if pointless hobby.

Remember the days when this board was filled with Nietzschean supermen who decried the evils of making content explicitly designed to appeal to the largest amount of people possible (aka the dreaded LCD)? Where are they now? Alone in dark movie theaters watching films that were made for them and them alone to see? They've turned their backs on us!

IF New Mutants turns out to be good and successful, and IF it makes no reference to the Fox X-verse, maybe they could integrate some of those characters, or even a sequel, into the MCU. There was a rumor about the reshoots and that Disney may use New Mutants as a way to introduce the Mutants into the MCU. Probably won't happen but it did make for an interesting discussion. |
