HOW TO FIX THE FOX UNIVERSE

HOW TO FIX THE FOX UNIVERSE

With Deadpool blowing away every other X-men movie ever, I have an editorial explaining and outlining how Fox can fix their universe.

4. COSTUMES


 

YOU KNOW WHAT THE X-MEN COMPLETELY RELY ON FOR GOOD STORYTELLING? COSTUMES. WITHOUT THEM THEY ARE NOTHING. IT'S WHY FOX-MEN DAYS OF FUTURE PAST WAS SO BORING, IT HAD NO COSTUMES. WITHOUT COSTUMES, THE X-MEN ARE NOTHING.

 


3. KICK THE HACK SINGER OUT


 

Bryan "Kiddler Fiddler" Singer has proven time and time again he can't make a good movie. Whether it's 'The Usual Suspects' or 'X2' he can't dig himself out of the hole that is his mediocre directing. Singer wishes he could aspire to the directing heights of someone like Alan Taylor or Joss Whedon. His influence to the X-series has never been a good one, always being involved in the worst movies.


2. MAKE IT MORE FUNNY


 

You know what the X-Men series needs? More humor. Deadpool was a perfect example of what the entire X-men universe needs to be. And the main stars saying the "F" word? That's a big no-no in my book. The series should strive to be something bigger and better. Something else...

 


1. SELL IT TO MARVEL


 

Eh, whatever. Just sell it to Marvel. They have shown that they are masters of their craft with superhero movies with such movies like Avengers 2 or Thor : Dark World. 

Nowadays I really can't just take a movie seriously unless it has constant worldbuilding put into it. Why should I be engaged into a movie if there's no interconnectivity with the next Antman movie? I should be seeing the Xmen movies setting up the next Thor movies! 

Well, those are my two cents. Feel free to sound off in the comments below.

you too have known loss

and that loss torments you still

you hoped hatred might someday replace the pain

but it never goes away

it makes a man hideous

inside and out

wouldnt you agree?

So... You're Jollem, right? Or Jollem's roommate? Jollem's cousin? Somehow related to Jollem?

I literally agree with all the main points except for the humor one, and i realize this editorial is a joke. [frick] the X-Men universe, just reboot it already, Deadpool won't be affected, he can make 2 quick meta jokes and voila, he's in the MCU now

I don't understand how this is on the main page? All it is is an opinion write up n it doesn't really make any sense. I don't know if it is real or not, lol.

Don't worry. I don't think even Fox can ignore mounds of money. Things are changing. Things are getting "fixed".

No thanks.
The reason I love Fox's X-movies is because they're dissimilar from Marvel's. No corny jokes, no wink-nudge references to Disney cartoons, nothing made too safe for children's eyes. And Singer's vision fits the X-Men well, imo. It's not as exciting as the average action film, but the drama and the angst is everything I love about X-Men comics.
That said, they could certainly be improved on.
I think they should play the Anti-Marvel. Go really dark and violent, crass humor, and never leave a happy ending. Also, stop making mutants so pretty. More uglies.
