It’s not that they come from the X-men brand it’s that there are just a lot more stories within the X-men brand. It’s not about a couple that we stick with. This keeps them from getting too repetitive
I agree, Storm really should be a gigantic deal for Disney.
For whatever reason, the character hasn't had luck getting adapted to the big screen. For a short while, Halle Berry's involvement for the first couple of films was a big deal, but then it was downhill after that. It became the Adventures of Wolverine, Professor X and Magneto.
Professor X, of all people! One of the least interesting X-characters, if you ask me. The Mentor.
Magneto is best in small doses, and shines as a villain. Fox (and Marvel comics to a large extent) insist on making him some antihero... someone who has killed thousands of innocent people over the years keeps getting invited back to the X-clubhouse. Just dumb.
And there's no stopping Wolverine. It's inevitable and I can't blame Disney for not squandering him, I just don't think it has to be at the expense of the X-Women.
Brie Larson is a great actress. Have you seen Short Term 12? And the win for Room was a good choice.
Captain Marvel was just just lackluster because of a mediocre script.
The Marvel films are starting to succumb to the G-rated blandness of Disney. There will be great special effects, but do not expect adult drama.
It's hard to have things both ways, I suppose. The family friendly nature of the MCU allows these characters to come to life on the big screen, but it also means many topics are off the table.
No smoking, for instance.
And it's already become a joke about how chaste all these superheroes are.
Hell yeah.
We have a Future President (Emma)
A Mars Regent (Storm)
We have a former Avenger who has saved the planet like millions times (Rogue)
The only living person able to tell the Phoenix Force go f yourself (Jean)
And Pryde. (Kitty)
But most of the x women even the lazy ones (Dazzler) are far more better character than any leading Avenging woman. (Except for Black Widow, For me is the X(wo)men and Black Widow the Women of marvels.
