Happy about the multiple Marvel Movie Universes? - Gen. Discussion

I am happy they are divided, cause I like that Spider-Man is off on his own, I am also happy the X-Men are. Sure it has its downsides but I find it very helpful. Wolverine can't be a Avenger which is great cause I find him way overrated, Spider-Man shouldn't be a Avenger and I'm glad he can't.

Sure it does have its downsides like, you can't use the Skrulls, or Galactus. But I find the strengths of the divide are much greater than they are not...HOW ABOUT YOU?

They need to bring all of the franchises together. Let's be honest, no one is excited for another Xmen, Spiderman or Daredevil movie if it doesn't go in the Avengers universe. We need all of the characters together, not spread out because of some greedy Dbags wont let them go.

@BlueLantern1995: I like it as well. Having everyone in the same universe is great for comics because stories come out monthly so people can go in and out and it isn't a big deal. But movies take a long time to create and a very short time period compress a lot of information. I don't think you could have that many title roles fit into a two plus hour movie. I like the main individual franchises to stay in separate universes (Avengers, X Men, FF, Spidey as soloist and not on a team)

How are the other companies being 'greedy Dbags' for honoring the agreement made between Marvel/Disney? They spent a lot of money to purchase the rights which Marvel/Disney willfully accepted. Disney could have kept the rights but they didn't have plans to produce those movies at the time.

I think it's very good. People like Daredevil, the Punisher, and Blade have no business being with the Avengers. The X-men should just stay on their own, there's no reason they need to be in with the Avengers universe. And Spider-man I have never felt belongs with the Avengers.

So, there are a few downsides, but overall it's a good thing.

I agree, let different directors do different adaptions and have artistic freedom...everything is so predetermined in the Marvel movie universe

@Cap10nate: Disney didn't own Marvel Entertainment until after most of the rights were sold, plus X-Men was bought by a producer not a company (whether that changer her producing X-Men owns the rights)

@BlueLantern1995: @TheCannon: I want them back in Marvel (although good new Spider-Man) as the original Spider-Man trilogy ok, X-Men 1-2 good, X3/Wolverine bad, XFisrt Class ok. Marvel films all good some better than others. Even still who says all Marvel characters need to be in the Avengers, now Marvel has Punisher rights back you think they are going to do that. What it does do however is make it feel more like a jump from the comics as you can have characters mentioned or cameos in films like Daredevil and Punisher could pop up in each others films as they have had history. I also personally would like to see Spider-Man used in the Avengers without affecting his current film series.

@johnkmccubbin91: Thanks for clearing that up. I wasn't sure of the order of it but regardless, it was Marvel's decision to release the rights to the titles to the different companies/ people.

@Cap10nate: you're not wrong there. I personally think it would be in all the studios interest to just share everything, if Marvel want Wolverine in Avengers lone him and have a Marvel character appear in one of there's same with Spider-Man, it's not really a loss as long as they have influence so they can't screw there stories ,although I would love Marvel to get the rights back personally
