X-Men News, Media & Websites #5: Because we still like keeping up with the X-Men franchise, even if the Fox X-Men universe is ending.

Well, then Feige had better stick to the comics and stop making these characters his own instead of Marvel's. I'm getting sick of his disrespect for the source material.

Oh, and thanks for that link below. It only confirmed what I always knew about Singer as well as Kinberg, along with all of Hollywood. How ironic that Olivia Munn had to be the one to point that out.

Dark Phoenix was a critical and commercial bomb, and it was clear while watching the movie that writer/director Simon Kinberg didn't have much interest in adhering to the source material.

That's always been the case for the X-Men franchise, though, and now X-Men: Apocalypse star Olivia Munn has now revealed just how clueless both Kinberg and Bryan Singer were on the set of that movie. As you can see in the clip below, neither of them were aware that Psylocke has a brother...you know, Captain Britain, a character who was instrumental in Betsy Braddock's origin story.
Quote:
It was in Captain Britain's solo series written by the legendary Alan Moore that Betsy was introduced, and in case it wasn't already obvious, Singer and Kinberg probabaly chose to use Psylocke simply because they saw her on a comic book cover and thought she looked cool!

Thankfully, the X-Men characters are now in the hands of Marvel Studios and Kevin Feige so we won't have to worry about a bizarre lack of comic book knowledge ruining any more movies...

I think he will do whatever he wants to do with them. No problem.

Then he doesn't deserve to be the president of Marvel Studios. He's not representing Marvel, he's representing himself.

He's representing Disney and everything Marvel represents Disney.

No, Disney owns Marvel. But only Marvel represents Marvel. They were totally separate prior to ten years ago. But Disney knows nothing about Marvel Comics, and Marvel never had anything to do with Disney. It's like combining Japanese anime with Mother Goose rhymes.

I know Disney owns Marvel. You know to connect MCU X-Men to the MCU they could have Charles be an ex-SHIELD agent who knows Fury, and Fury secretly knows about Charles and the X-Men, and Charles doesn't want Fury/SHIELD to get their hands on the X-Men.

That'd be awful, but who gives a crap what Disney do with the X-Men? I won't be watching.

Well, I'm just coming up with some ideas. Here's something X-Men: Evolution did that I think could work with MCU Magneto.

Magneto in the shadows secretly being the puppet master. They didn't reveal his face until like the S1 finale.

I think I've had quite enough of everyone being connected to SHIELD, dragonfire. Years from now fans are gonna ridicule the MCU for making everything so SHIELD-centric because it's on complete overload. Besides, Charles and SHIELD makes no sense.
