I would like things to be "fixed" so that it's established that the first team once upon a time was:
Cyclops Jean Grey Angel Beast Iceman
They can do whatever they want as log as they establish that somehow. A flashback, someone tells the story, a photo on a wall, whatever...
And Cyclops should still be in the team as team leader, and should be a major character instead of how they did him in the FOX movies.

Eventually people would probably wanna see Prof X and Magneto, but the question is, do they stick with the comic backstory (Holocaust) or update it so they can cast younger actors?

If it were up to me I would do this:
1st third of the movie: The first team- Cyclops, Marvel Girl, Iceman, Beast, Angel. They get lost or kidnapped on a mission, but Cyclops is able to escape and lets Professor X know what happened.
2nd third of the movie: Professor X recruits the new X-Men- Wolverine, Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler and Banshee.
final 3rd of the movie: the second team rescues the first team, they team up and fight the villain.
This is actually what happens in the classic Giant Sized X-Men, the first introduction to the X-Men as we know them. So its canon and faithful to the source material.
From there all you have to do is have some members leave the team for whatever reason and boil it down a smaller group of the ones you want to keep. That's what they did in the comics. Its not rocket science. The story is already there.

Yeah, but the Quicksilver who is alive looks nothing like the Quicksilver who is dead. the ultron script failed him. sadly. Pietro had a character arc, which puts him head and shoulders above 95% of the FoX-Men.

You know that's a good point. It will get to a point that a modern day Magneto will be hard to due with his Holocaust background.

You know that's a good point. It will get to a point that a modern day Magneto will be hard to due with his Holocaust background. There are other genocides/massacres they could tie his character too. While he's a German Jew in the comics, he can technically be tailored to any European country. If they do keep the Holocaust background, there's only a small handful of actors who could really play him. Just off the top of my head, maybe someone like Christopher Plummer, Udo Kier or Donald Sutherland. Would be cool if they could get Ian McKellen back. If they do want to update his backstory but still keep a relatively older actor, they should tailor his backstory to any mass killings/mass deportation of ethnic groups under communist regimes during the early years of Cold War, probably by the Soviet Union under Stalin's rule, during the 50s, early 60s. With that, they could still cast at least a 60yr old actor for it. Not to be stealing from GoldenEye, but a good example is with Trevelyan character who was a Lienz Cossack, a group of Ukrainians who helped the allied forces during World War II and were promised they could join them after, but ended up being deported back to Russia where Stalin had them all killed.

I'd go with the original line up in the comics with maybe a couple changes.
Cyclops, Beast, Ice-man, Jean Grey, Angel and then perhaps add in someone like Gambit. Then a sequel could add Wolverine because enough time would have past by then that they could replace him.

Just gonna say this at the top. I don't care if this isn't comic accurate to anything. This is simply what I want. Flat out, I don't want the main team to be kids. Mid to early 20's but not teenagers like a Spider-Man. I want the main team to be teachers at Xavier's School For The Gifted. There will be some teenagers as part of the students but they will not be on the main X-Men team.
X-Men Main Team: Cyclops Jean Storm Beast Rogue Northstar
Students: Iceman (have him be friends with Peter Parker) *Maybe were classmates with Peter before going to Xavier's school Kitty (have her be friends with Peter Parker) *Maybe were classmates with Peter before going to Xavier's school Nightcrawler Jubilee Lifeguard Slipstream
I'd also have Mr Sinister be the main villain and this movie showcases the Mutant Massacre so his army that the X-Men battle before him to give good action scenes would be the Marauders. Gambit appears in a few scenes where he recruits them and you see him saving a little girl from the massacre. He becomes an X-Man in the sequel when he is brought in by Storm after saving her. (Don't have her be a kid though)
Give me no Wolverine, at least yet. Also give me ZERO PHOENIX!!! Nothing Phoenix related or hinted at or anything. Also zero Mystique.
I'm also not sure how they do Magneto today. Not saying they can't, I just don't know how they do it. So I'd possibly leave Magneto out of things at least right away and I'd position Cyclops eventually into that role like he became in the comics where he was just trying to do best by his people and fuck the rest of everyone type of thing. That Cyclops ended up being my favorite Cyclops. He was a bad ass.

That Cyclops ended up being my favorite Cyclops. He was a bad ass. The way you do Magneto is to not make the reason be some huge event in history like the holocaust. A single personal event can change a persons outlook on life.
For the X-men themselves, I think they should start them off with the strange right away. Get us use to the Morlocks and the Savage Land and the Mojoverse and the space stuff fairly early. I want to feel like anything can happen in an X-men movie.

I would like things to be "fixed" so that it's established that the first team once upon a time was:
Cyclops Jean Grey Angel Beast Iceman
They can do whatever they want as log as they establish that somehow. A flashback, someone tells the story, a photo on a wall, whatever...
And Cyclops should still be in the team as team leader, and should be a major character instead of how they did him in the FOX movies. pretty disastrous but remember this is disney xmen, so like homecoming and star wars expect jokes, mediocrity and cheap luaghs. also expect unnecessary characters in the film. eg iron man in homecoming, knowing marvel they will put black panther in the film so they can pair him up with storm quickly even though thy are one of the worst marvel couples.
cyclops will be like star lord and all that nonsense but as I said, this not not real xmen any more than homecoming is a real spiderman movie. so leave your brain at the door and expect lots of blacklash even worse than last jedi and homecoming when the dust settles.

I'm on the fence about Spider-Man in the MCU even though I liked Homecoming. It almost feels as if he still needs to "fit in" somehow. As if he's just a spidered-up Iron Man lite, instead of truly being his own character. The next sequel will tell.
I think, as what happened in the comics, at first they were close, and then they had a falling out. If they do that then maybe Spider-Man will come into his own as a character in the greater MCU.
So do YOU think that people who liked Homecoming are cukoo for cocoa puffs?
As for X-Men in MCU, I think that they'll need to retain some of the darkness of that franchise. Mutants are hated and feared outcasts. Its an important aspect of their story. You cant suddenly replace that with MCU optimism and have it still be X-Men.

I think the MCU should give the X-men a break and concentrate on X-Force instead.
Cable Cannonball Shatterstar Warpath Feral Psylocke Domino etc.
Recast the lot of them and pretend that DP2 never happened. Maintain DP (Reynolds) but keep him separate with crossovers now and then.

Cyclops Beast Angel Iceman Marvel Girl The original team right from the start. If they have to have another member I would go with Gambit since Singer absolutely refused to put him in any X-Men films and it's time for him to join the team. Not sure who the first villain should be. The Juggernaut or the Sentinels perhaps. A simple villain that will allow time to build up the characters. This.

Wolverine Beast Rogue Jubilee Domino
Mystique as a villain.
The rest of the X-Men are boring as heck.

So now that Disney bought fox and now owns the X-Men its time to talk about the lineup for the reboot. I personally think it should be made up of X-Men that haven't been used yet with some iconic members: 1. Storm. My favorite X-Men and one i feel like fox didn't do her justice. 2. Northstar. First openly gay comic book character. A fan favorite that's long over due. 3. Cyclops. I know some fans feel like they never did him justice, so how about a second chance? 4. Dazzler. A fun character and has been highly requested before. 5. Firestar. Would love to see her befriend peter! 6. Iceman. Lets recreate the amazing friends! 7. Jean Grey. They won't have Storm, Dazzler, or Jean Grey because MCU Dictator Kevin Feige hates female superheroes.

Yes, that's why we've had female superheros like Black Widow, Scarlet Witch, Gamora, Wasp, Valkyrie, and isn't Captain Marvel coming out soon?

Cyclops, Storm and Jean are a given.
Angel, Psylocke and Beast would be great additions to the main 3.
I wouldnt want to see Iceman or Jubilee, I think the MCU would go too overboard with their comedic nature.
I would avoid Wolverine, Gambit and Rogue at the beginning but introduced them later
