<br>Daredevil is notably a champion of justice, but he forgoes his duty and kisses Elektra instead. This signifies that his former, and potentially future, romance with Elektra outweighs his commitment to vigilantism .

There's a strong sense in which the Marvel Cinematic Universe wouldn't exist without the X-Men films. Marvel Comics only survived near-bankruptcy in the '90s by selling off the film rights to some of its most notable characters, including Spider-Man and, of course, the X-Men. What's more, many key figures in Marvel Studios cut their teeth on the X-Men films, including even Marvel Studios president Kevin Fe<br><br> <br>It's worth noting that The Marvels does include characters like Nick Fury who aren't women, and both Black Panther movies don't have all-Black casts as Peltz claims.

In contrast, Fox has largely seemed to be reactive, tossing countless ideas up into the air to see how they fall, rarely showing any sense of overarching narrative direction. The X-Men films' famous continuity problems are really a manifestation of this core is<br><br> <br>Why do I have to have a Marvel [movie] that’s all women?"

These comments come after the recent box office disappointment of The Marvels , and a largely disappointing 2023 for Marvel Studios and its parent company Disney. While there are some concerns that can be raised about the current state of the MCU, it is also worth noting that these statements come from an ally of the controversial ex-Marvel executive, Ike Perlmutt<br><br> <br>Vaughn has stressed that Fox largely kept to his original script for X-Men: Days of Future Past , albeit switching around a couple of secondary characters - notably substituting Quicksilver in the place of Juggernaut , who he had imagined being involved in breaking Magneto out of prison. And yet, for all the script would have been mostly the same, it's hard not to see Vaughn's original plan as a better one. The key is in terms of pacing, with a gradual increase in the stakes; the impending conflict between man and mutant would have been neatly signposted in the second film, and there would have been a clear narrative throughline, with Magneto involved in the Kennedy assassination and imprisoned for it in the third installment. This also would have subtly rewritten Mystique's role, in that she'd essentially have become more of a Magneto loyalist, continuing his mission of assassinating high-profile political thre<br><br> <br>Making his debut in the Hulk comics , Wolverine has always had it out for Marvel's resident emerald rage machine.

" As Professor X is in a wheelchair, Magneto needs to have a nemesis he can fight with, " Vaughn explained to MovieWeb . " Someone that will be his equal.
