    The plan is for X-Men: Dark Phoenix to be the final Marvel movie from Fox.



    Simply put, once the deal is done, the heroes will officially be joining the MCU.

    It's said that Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige is "hoovering up" Fox's Marvel characters and is looking to introduce Deadpool, the Fantastic Four, and X-Men in Phase 4.

    The Fantastic Four - it's about time! Maybe they'll get a good movie now?

    Or maybe when Disney gets it it'll be like what happened to Star Wars, bad storylines, nonsensical plot points, on and on. I never thought I'd hear sci-fi fans praise the prequels as better than Disney's versions, but after The Last Jedi I hear that from even die-hard Disney fans.

    Wow.
    Absolutely disagree on that, personally.
    All three have been infinitely better than 1-3 and arguably 6.

    'All three'... hmm... My mind went straight to the two that are part of the main run, and skipped over Rogue One. I have a problem sometimes with overcategorising.

    Mokole, I'm not sure how to read your comment - have you seen the Disney Star Wars movies? If so, what do you think?

    (Me, I'd say 6 is definitely better than any that came after, but the Disney ones are better than the prequels.)

    Well, that is good news for Alpha Flight fans! Are there any of those around here?

    There’s no evidence that it will be good for us...

    But there's no evidence that it won't!

    (Sorry, trying to be optimistic here.)

    Disney And Fox Shareholders Approve $71.3 Billion Merger - The X-MEN And FANTASTIC FOUR Are Coming Home!

    Shareholders for The Walt Disney Co. and 21st Century Fox voted this morning on whether or not to approve the former's $71.3 billion acquisition of Fox's film and TV assets and it's good news: the deal has been approved!

    The most exciting news for fans is the fact that this means Marvel properties like the X-Men and Fantastic Four are coming home to Marvel Studios and will arrive in the Marvel Cinematic Universe at some point in the next few years.

    This opens up sooooooo many great characters that can now appear in the MCU.

    I'm just curious about how they are going to merge those two worlds. I think there is an argument to be made that they wanted this deal done now so that they could potentially do a universe merge as the finale to the Infinity War, a la Crisis on Infinite Earths or something.
