This is probably a far stretch, but I'm hoping X-Men Days of Future Past will give an excuse to create an "alternative future" and reboot the rest of the franchise.

I hope Marvel buys the rights back and does it fucking right

we all hope that would happen, but we all know it would probably be prohibitively expensive for even Disney's long pockets to do so or else they would have already done it.

Time travel blows open the franchise to be fixed or even more fucked.

Electro looks badass. But I would definitely NOT want to have to fight this new Rhino either.

kingkilburn

Look at that. Another Spiderman with way too much going on.

So it's possible Days of Future Past could setup an alternative future.

All we saw of a Sentinel in Xmen 3 was the head... Which presents another continuity issue... How the fuck they even have that in the Danger Room when the shit hadn't even been created yet?

I'm assuming the new Sentinel posted above is just a sort of mock up and we'll mostly see CG versions on the screen. That one looks way to small and flimsy. I suppose all the use of plastic is to counter Magneto though...

Felipe

Maybe they have a mutain that seen the future and were preparing for it.


Good point on the plastic. Hopefully stark industries have something to do with them.

You won't see Stark Industries in any X-Men movie.

Felipe

Spiderman?

I remember seing him in xmen cartoon series about him trying to fix his mutation.

I thought it was common knowledge that X-Men/most mutants, Stark+Avengers and SpiderMan are all owner by different production studios and won't crossover unless the rights to the characters revert back to Marvel...

Felipe

People now and days will do anything for fresh ideas.

Dude, I don't think you get what I am saying...

In order to reach the point they are today, Marvel's movie studios had to start somewhere. In order to get their projects off the ground they sold the movie rights of certain properties to different movie studios.

- 20th Century Fox got the Fantastic 4, X-Men and pretty much anything mutant related.
- Sony got Blade, Spiderman, Ghostrider, Daredevil and Elektra.
- IronMan and all the Avengers on the big screen stayed with Marvel, which is now owned by Disney.

Fox, Sony and Disney are not going to be letting their properties crossover with the other companies (unless they exploit loopholes like with QuickSilver and Scarlet Witch).

When Marvel sold off their movie rights to these characters, there is a clause in the contracts that will allow Marvel to regain their rights to them in certain situations, like if the company holding the rights doesn't release a movie featuring the character within 10 years or something.

Recently, Blade, Ghostrider, Daredevil and Elektra reverted back to Marvel's ownership. But Fox and Sony have a deathgrip on the Xmen and Spiderman (not sure whats up with the Fantastic 4. Last I heard, they were up for a reboot soon). They won't be sharing the same universe with the Avengers or each other any time soon.

So no Stark Industries building Sentinels. I believe Trask Industries' has that contract sowed up.

FRpilot

Stuff you posted was pretty informative to me. Didn't know Marvel had a hand in the recent Ghost Rider (Nicholas Cage) films. I never watched Ghost Rider 1 or 2, but I thought media said they were pretty disappointing, which is odd considering it is coming from Marvel with their recent releases.

CG is what will make/break it. Sure, thats a physical prop, that may not even bee done, but once they ad all the effects it will look fierce and "real", rather then a plastic oversized toy.

While there has been many story issues, the special effects, settings and costumes have all been fantastic.


As for the Sentinel in the Danger Room - it was fan service. I think the problem with all the X-Men movies is that the producers never expected to make another. The "Avengers" series on the other hand, they quickly realized they had some serious money makers on their hands and planned out the future of the franchise better.

kingkilburn

Marvel did well to build a universe for the movies to be set in. Any related character could pop up and not be out of place.

Can you see any other Marvel property crossing into the Blade series as it had been? I don't think so.

did you say venom? Venom and carnage movies can only be cool if they are made for adults. Rated R....or X if I had my personal choice. I still have some hardcore carnage comics from back in the day. I want gruesome detailed gore (not overly fake looking) with tits n ass.

Hello body paint.

Seriously, this movie looks awesome. I'm really curious to see how they lay out the backstory for the Winter Solider. I'm guessing a secret S.H.I.E.L.D. project or 'plan B' after losing Capt. America during WWII.
