    Default What about a New Universe MCU movie?

    I was reading Exiles and in one story arc, they visit a version of the New Universe. It is made explicit that the the current year of that reality was in the 80s.

    Perhaps a movie also set in the 80s made in that era's filming style could work. There is a lot of potential in 80s aesthetic, just look up AI generated 80s dark fantasy made up movie screenshots.

    That style would make the world stand out from just being another superhero movie.

    The New Universe stuff works better seperate from Marvel. Doing it as a standalone project would be better.

    Yeah, sorry that's actually what I meant. I was thinking it would still technically be under the MCU brand but a parallel reality.

    I was just unclear.

    I think it would be confusing. People would start asking when the other characters are going to appear. I think Marvel would be forced to create another division just to set apart the characters.

    TBH, just ignore the "MCU" part of the thread title. I wasn't thinking that hard when I wrote it.

    I'm more familiar with the 2006 revival with Warren Ellis. I think that take could work as a miniseries/limited series.

    I'd like to see this as a television series. One movie by itself, I think they'd have to narrow the characters down to one concept. I'm partial to Nightmask but I suspect others would likely get the nod first.

    I think Ellis did a better work when he did the same with the Wild Storm.

    In this moment giving a try to the New Universe could be a wise move.
