    Default X-men: Disney plus series or movies?

    I don't object to x-men movies but i think an x-men tv show would be preferable it would help developing characters and story further. x-men, x-men united, x-men last stand Wolverine was the protagonist, a character like scott summers had almost no character development. It's clearly they can't do story like the dark phoenix in one movie. Kevin Feige have succesful so far, he might prove me wrong

    I don't trust a TV budget to capture the essences of certain X-Men like Storm or Phoenix. I'd much rather see a new animated series and MCU films.

    If it a new animated series, it will suck. Disney has never done a good animation series about marvel.


    TV Budget will be a big disappointment too, because like you said, they won't capture the essence of x-men. HBO Max Green Lantern will be better than any disney plus xmen show and I think HBO Green Lantern is still going to struggle a bit.

    I would love a new animated show

    as for series I think that X-Factor Investigations would be their best option. And if Loki turns out as good as it looks, then I wouldn't mind for them doing an Excalibur series.
    A picture would last longer darling...

    This is hard to say really. I love the experience of the theater and seeing things on the big screen, but I do agree a show would really develop a bunch of characters and not just the same 4 the foxmen movies did. I guess i'd be fine with either as long as they are well done. Budget would be a problem too, but I'd give anything a chance

    I hate to say it, but regardless people will complain about it.
    I think restorative nostalgia is the number one issue with comic book fans.
    A fine distinction between two types of Nostalgia:

    Reflective Nostalgia allows us to savor our memories but accepts that they are in the past
    Restorative Nostalgia pushes back against the here and now, keeping us stuck trying to relive our glory days.

    Totally agree, if they got kick ass animators and great writers like young justice season 1 and 2 had.It's a no brainer , they just shouldn't make it too childish.The subject matter though animated should be fairly serious. I didn't want them to stop Wolverine and the X-Men at season 1 as it was getting better as the season went on.An animated show with epic action is the best option.To have more potential they could concentrate on like New Mutants trying to do missions so that they can be recruited as X men proper or trying to get hard boiled assignments like X-Force.The dynamic would work

    X-Force can never happen, not on disney plus. at least not like the comics. X-Force is the most grittiest part of the X-Universe, they work more on grey lines, handling some of the dirtier jobs, xmen does not really want to put their face on. x-force is not Disney plus material

    on the bright side, harry potter tv series goes on HBO Max. now hbo max is more x-force material.

    They're definetely gonna have X-Men Movies, and then they can make Disney+ spinoffs for the characters like WandaVision and all the upcoming shows.

    I think the idea that TV shows will have a smaller budget (and thus will not look as well produced) is an outdated notion. Just look at shows like The Mandalorian. Streaming services are pouring millions into shows these days, and Disney/Marvel are reportedly giving movie-sized budgets to their Disney+ shows. It's pretty much a guarantee we'll be getting X-movies, but I hope we get some shows, too, because some stories can be much better told over the longer format that a show provides.

    There is no "or". Theatres are done if not for good right now, then soon.

    You will get your X-Men in spades (and hearts and clubs and diamonds, chere) on Disney+, sometimes in one 2.5 hour chunk, sometimes in weekly 1-hour bites.

    Inevitably, some things, particularly the smaller subfranchises, will see more time in side shows, rather than the big productions.

    Give me my lil 8-episode Gen Hope story.
