Marvel and Fox need to quit beefin.
Marvel and Fox have been beefin over a decade now on some dumb shit. They can't stand each others asses and it's really just fucking up both their shit. Marvel won't even print Fantastic Four comics anymore because Fox owns the movie rights and keeps wasting them making sorry ass movies like F4ntastic...Fant4stic? 4antastic? Fuck it the Fantastic Four movie that didn't have Jessica Alba's sexy ass to save it.
Drama...where does it start? The late 90's. That's where all drama starts. But right about now Marvel was broke as hell. Now the 1st half of the 90's was ill, you had adults buying comics, you had people buying to collect them hoping they'd appreciate in value, the relaunched X-men plus the cartoon series.
Side note: This has nothing to do with anything but everytime I read the word "LatinX" I imagine the 90's X-men cartoon theme playing in a mariachi style and Mascarita Sagrada with Wolverine claws. I mean everytime and it only gets deeper everytime, I have an entire set of characters for a Latin X series, the premise and 1st 3 episodes fully scripted in my head. The 1st one that establishes the premise is really good, basically a latino family finds out their son is gifted and they tour the Xavier institute. At first they think it's great, especially since it's free but as Charles is trying to give the "this is a place for the gifted to learn to control and use their powers for the benefit of mankind" like literally every "X-men" thing happens, Juggernaut comes running into the building(literally) looking for Charles and gets in a fight with Colossus and Storm, which Charles gets mad about since they just fixed that wing after the fight with Apocalypse.
The Dad is like "who the hell is Apocalypse?!" and he just says they'll skip the classrooms and move on to the dorms, and deadpool is walking around fresh out of the shower in nothing but his mask and towel scars on full display so Charles is like "Get out of here Wade, you don't live here!" "Sorry Chuck but my water got shut off you guys got anyone I could kill for a quick $200 bucks?" "Go home wade" Rogue touches him and he drops dead and she carries him out. "I'll take him to Cable" "Who's Cable?" The Dad asks. "Cyclop's son" "His Son?!" He looks at Cyclops(whose been along the entire tour)
"Well his son from the future, he time traveled from a time, I believe we are all killed either by the government, Apocalypse, whatever, he comes and goes with something new that kills all of us to warn us. His father Cyclops here, actually time traveled from the past that's why he looks so young, his self from this time period was killed"
The Dad notices bullet holes in the walls "Oh yes that's from the last time Stryker raided the building looking for new government test subjects and just as he says that Sabretooth bursts through the window and him and Wolverine go at it slashing at each other as blood splatters everywhere they leave quickly and go touring the other wing "we have a living room and fully stocked kitchen full of healthy...is that smoke? Gambit!" "Sorry Mon ami, I didn't expect you to be giving tours, how about you show Ma & pops the Danger Room?" "Danger room?!" "Gambit we don't talk about the danger room with...new guests"
"What is the Danger Room?" Cyclops jumps in "The Danger Room is gone don't worry about it" Beast adds "It's not technically gone, it's become a sentient lifeform and is hiding around here somewhere, me and Forge are working on tracking him down" "Ok WHO is the Danger Room?!"
NightCrawler bamfs in "JEAN IS NOT IN HER GRAVE!" pulls a fire alarm that goes off. Scott starts yelling Jean and crying, trying to wipe his eyes with optic blasts shooting all over the place. "Who is Jean and why is she not in her grave?! Is that her power rising from the dead?!" "No Jean is the manifestation of the phoenix force with the power to destroy galaxies" "Galaxies?!" Students are running around, suiting up. "Get ready for a fight guys"
The roof rips off the place but it's revealed Magneto did it and is floating around "Charles! You won't stand in the way of me recruiting Jean for my brotherhood of Evil Mutants!" "You can't have her Eric!" "Are you willing to die for her?!"
"No one dies tonight! So says the phoenix!" A giant bird of flame appears setting the portion of the mansion Magneto was holding on fire, everyone starts focusing their level 3 supers on Jean as the family runs to their truck and drives away, even driving they see students being blasted past the car in fireballs exploding, sentinals flying TO the mansion, and as the family decides to pass on the institute and try a DIY form of training we cut to our first commercial break.
That's how much I've thought of this. That's just the 1st 12 minutes. I just can't find any mariachi covers of that song online and it bothers me.
Anyways yeah Marvel was mad broke. They'd mismanaged like a motherfucker and the comics people collected weren't worth shit so they stopped. They needed money and they needed the shit like yesterday so they licensed the film rights to the X-Men, Blade, and Fantastic Four to Fox.
Marvel then tried to make their own "mutant" show called Mutant X which they got sued quick fast and in a hurry for by Fox and all that shit got shut down.
That shit got marvel salty so they started segregating the X-men and even put Wolverine on Avengers while making their own movies. Now where Marvel fucked up is as long as Fox keeps making and releasing movies they can keep the rights. Even if they are terrible retarded movies, if the next Fantastic Four movie has Thing made out of cardboard and human torch looking like 2008 after effects you'd see on a youtube video and released to 4 theaters they still keep the rights.
There's not a goddamned thing Marvel can do about that. Fox also couldn't make an X men series without Marvel signing off on it but they've at least gotten over that shit with Legion and Gifted. Once Marvel Got it's money up with Iron Man they got some of their characters back like Daredevil, Ghost Rider, but fox aint movin on X-men or Fantastic Four.
Marvel also can't use characters like the Fantastic Four, or X men in it's movies. In turn nobody is even sure if Fantastic Four exists in the comics anymore as characters, I mean they deadass cancelled the book and sometimes you might see one of them around as like a janitor at Stark Tech but that's it. X-men aren't even in Marvel vs Capcom Infinite. These motherfuckers actually had the nerve to say nobody cares about Wolverine anymore.
Needless to say this whole beef is stuck on stupid and they need to get it together like Sony & Marvel did with Spiderman for the sake of the fans. I get there's a business end to this shit that's kind of fucked up like if I sold my neighbor my car, he fixed it up and I wanted to drive it all the time again. But that's better than him sitting the car on bricks to spite me and letting it rust.
Right now this is a sad way to see the Fantastic Four go out. Somehow, someway they gotta get this shit together so we can Galactus done properly, the Fantastic Four, have Deadpool interact with the Marvel universe, and all the good shit that can come from collaboration vs self destructive competition.
So good. Thank you.
