Why Aren’t the X-MEN Already in the MCU? - Marvel's Biggest Mistake Explained

"Every comic book character comes back to life except Uncle Ben." 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Making Avengers 5 "Avengers vs X-Men" would be a terribly premature idea.

Saying that Patrick’s Stewart’s role in doctor strange 2 was a “way to say goodbye” is a fvcking wild take.

The problem is, the fans are too smart. We didn’t know we were in the “Infinity Saga” until it was almost over. Since we were aware of the Multiverse Saga from the jump, our expectations are already high.

Okay the running gag of Doug deciding he's had enough and is going to go live out the role of a protagonist from an old movie is growing on me XD

…the only answer is, for this level of IP it takes four years pre production, two years production and post and then one year marketing. Fox was bought in 2017 but Disney only took possession of fox in 2019. There simply hasn’t been enough time.

I think one of the biggest problems with the MCU and the introduction of mutants is that they already did it in "Agents of SHIELD" where they tried to make Inhumans the MCU version of mutants. The fact that Feige decanonized it all (after at first telling us it would be canon) makes it feel even cheaper since we don't know what to trust as canon and not. (Same applies to the Netflix shows.)

Sounds like Doug's favorite movie is secret of NIMH, that little guy has good taste

Each avenger essentially got their own movie or team up movie. The X-men or “the mutant saga” won’t be introduced until after Deadpool. The “X-men” would be an avengers level movie

“A double bed time pooper… oh man”💀 Doug lmao

In Dr. Strange they continuously are setting up the multiverse. Without understanding the multiverse it’s hard to understand the flexibility of comics. If you don’t deeply and clearly clean the slate you can’t paint a true and unique picture.

Trying to fit mutants into the MCU as it is now is just too messy. You either have them always have been there but in hiding and SHIELD or anyone else NEVER knew about them, and the mutans never helped out in any of the crises which they already did with the Eternals, or you have them suddenly appear as a new thing, which doesn't work for the older mutants like Xavier and Magneto. Introducing them to the audience as characters in the multiverse is getting the foot in the door so when they reboot the MCU after Secret Wars, they'll be starting fresh with everything and the mutants can finally exist in the MCU without the questions of why were they never around and why did nobody ever notice them.

Oh man, we have a Ryan from a new universe now - does that mean everything the old Ryan said is no longer canon?

The Secret of Nihm reference made my grey hairs hurt.

Successful multiversal stories require setting up a lot of characters

Anyone else thinking the problem with this version of Avengers v XMen is that we already saw this EXACT storyline in Captain America: Civil War?

I thought Marvel couldn’t recast the X-Men till 2025 due to contracts.

16:56 Imagine in every ScreenCrush video starring Ryan, he's just dressed like this variant of himself from now on.
