And then there is this cringeworthy X-Women scene in ‘Dark Phoenix’, but since it’s not an MCU film, DC-Fan praised it as the best comic book film of 2019. Pretty much. Also ironic how DC-Fan loves the Supergirl show and claims he does not like Hillary Clinton or the democratic party when there are oh so many obvious references to Clinton losing the election and current democratic concerns presented in the show that are so obvious you'd wonder why bother trying to hide them in a fictional setting and characters. You wanted crooked Hillary to be POTUS?

Where did I say it was bad? I didn't say it was good or bad. I'm just answering the original question of how they'll probably adapt Magneto into MCU. They'll probably cast a female to play Magneto. Well you sure wrote it in a negative way, also being an SJW does not mean you belong to a particular political party or that if you are trans you are automatically in that circle of people - there are actually trans people as well as gay, bi, etc. people in the country who are not partial to SJWisms or liberal belief systems and actually voted for Donald Trump, there are also democrats who hate PC culture and SJW practices and propaganda in mainstream entertainment and are the furthest thing from Donald Trump lovers. I didn't say anything about Democrats, Republicans, or Trump. I simply answered the original question about how they'll probably adapt Magneto into MCU.

He’s from another dimension where WW2 didn’t end until 1970 because Cap chose to elope with Agent Carter.

Magneto is pretty much an extremist BLM type of figure. You can have it that he's angry at what is openly happening to mutants and want to do something about it that's outside the system. Give him the backstory that his foreign family was persecuted when he was a child just coming to the United States and it stuck with him.

I was curious. Not going to lie I have thought about this before but never really shared it. How would you all adapt Magneto into today's MCU? Try not to use any multiverse thing where he leaps from the Holocaust into today's world. That may be the best way to go but for the sake of this thread simply go by today's world and this is the only world and timeline that we're in. Would you be alright with casting Magneto as somebody who suffered through the Rwanda Genocide? You could then cast an actor in his 30's or so (yes he'd be black in this scenario) and he could play the role for a long run like Fassbender kind of did but without the stupid decade hopping without aging. Imagine that they were able to cast somebody like Mahershala Ali as Magneto. A fucking AMAZING actor. Would you be okay with that or does it have to be his original origins? I know that's a HUGE deal to his character but I'm just asking how to adapt it to today's world. I think you'd need to update his origins a bit and this one was the first to come to mind. I know it's kind of a heavy question but PLEASE try and be civil and just discuss the topic without insults. I just want to hear some alternatives people would suggest to adapting him into today's MCU for let's say a 2023 MCU X-Men movie. I brought this up before and my thread was hijacked into another Marvel vs DC thread with a dash of Anti-SJW/Anti-Feminist circle jerk. Anyhow in order for a modern Magneto to work they have to update him and his origin. Otherwise we're going to have a 100 year old man as the villain.

You wanted crooked Hillary to be POTUS? I give you a D for effort in trying to deflect from my point and an F in execution, the Supergirl show which you love is without question a show written by leftists with serious social justice warrior beliefs for leftists with serious social justice warrior beliefs and it is not subtle about it at all. To claim to be anti-SJW and be a fan of the Supergirl show is nothing short of an eyebrow raiser because of all the pandering in it. And no, I didn't want Hillary to be president.

Well according to those who only go by a smidge of information, which you definitely belong in such camp, Trans people = SJWs, and SJWs=Democrats.

Yep, the show has been very left-leaning especially since season 2 when it moved over to The CW and has only ever ditched the politics in favor of telling exciting stories when push has come to shove, which has been rare.

But he "distracted" her before. He's the mystery husband that was in the timeline we have been following (the MCU we've been watching is an alternate timeline).

No clue why they went heavy-handed when they went to the CW. But I do find it funny that they started toward a relationship between Brainiac and Dreamer, then suddenly had Brainiac go absentminded when they were going to get close.*
But anyway, this thread is about Magneto in the MCU. Can't let DC-Fan derail that like all the MCU haters like to do to these threads.
*BTW, I'm only half way through the season on Netflix...

Give him the backstory that his foreign family was persecuted when he was a child just coming to the United States and it stuck with him. Give that story to another character. I’d be reluctant to bastardise the Magneto backstory so easily myself. I’d prefer his original origin and otherwise account for his youthful appearance. Other mutants have longevity, why not Magneto? It’s less of a compromise than changing his entire backstory.

I didn't derail this thread. I simply answered the question in the original post. It was JudgeJuryDredd who derailed this thread by mentioning DC and trying to turn this thread into another MCU vs DC thread.

And? Why would it be a bad thing to make Magneto Transgender? Where did I say it was bad? I didn't say it was good or bad. I'm just answering the original question of how they'll probably adapt Magneto into MCU. They'll probably cast a female to play Magneto. But it's still unclear to us whether or not you support the idea of a transgender or female Magneto. What do you think of someone like Asia Kate Dillon taking on the role? Would you support that?

Except no one is debating MCU vs DC, I pointed out your hypocrisy, you're being critical of the MCU for catering to SJWs yet you love Supergirl a show which caters to SJWs by quite a bit more and are not subtle about it whatsoever.

Personally, I think they need to take the focus off of Magneto's secret history and shine the spotlight on Professor Xavier instead. The early life of a privileged telepath and mental dominant could be exciting. He may not have been an altogether moral individual before his confrontation with Amahl Farouk. I know, "who in the blue hell is Amahl Farouk?" You're welcome, DC-Fan. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_King
