I like how much Angel & Iceman, Original Xmen, are showing up here in this treatment. Warren & Bobby were great core characters for years in the comics, be sure to cast them well too!

im flattered from the offer to cast me as scott, but i’m glad you didn’t so i wouldn’t steal the show. (wink, wink, nudge, nudge)

I think your prologue perfectly sets up Sinisters obsession with Scott and Jean so I think that’s who sinister should be after. It’s also more comic accurate.

This was a very thorough rundown of the ideal Xmen film. I'm glad you are emphasizing Mr. Sinister as the main villain here. We have seen enough of Magneto, very excited to see evil Nathan Essex! The casting suggestions made are intriguing too.

That is a really nice X-Men movie pitch you there, bub. But I think we could’ve had two prequel movies of the comic accurate X-Men first class and the Giant Size X-Men. Because throughout the MCU, I think the X-Men and the mutants would’ve been hidden from the whole world. I like your casting btw and I can agree with Richard Madden as Cyclops and Christian Bale as Mr. Sinister due to their previous MCU roles being wasted. I also like the other casting like Ralph Fiennes as Professor X, Jeffrey Wright as Beast, Jane Levy as Jean Grey, Anna Diop as Storm, Diana Silvers as Rogue, Austin Butler as Gambit, Jack Champion as Iceman, and Tom Blyth as Angel. BTW, I feel like Nightcrawler, Shadowcat, and Colossus could’ve been in the movie. If they were who would you have casted?

Nah this is better than Wonka wtfff! We makin it outta the editing software with this one 🔥🗣️

As a hardcore X head I must point out some things. Fox already had Rogue as the villain’s means to an end. Fans will rip the idea to shreds. Sinister should stay obsessed with Scott and Jean. He should lure them into a trap. And if the only super-powered combatants are all Sinisters the audience will get bored fast. This is where the Marauders come in. And you confused me by not explaining who Rogue absorbed her super strength and the ability to fly from. But kudos for understanding emotional stakes in a fight

Great video. Really appreciate your thoughts. Can tell just how much you love these characters. Glad you’ve given Cyclops recognition. He has always been criminally underused in live action films. Let’s hope your pitch makes it to Marvel!

Loved this can’t wait for part 2!

Having sinister as a villian is also a great way to eventually bring in Apocalypse. Sinister has so much history, his plan can be woven through 100 years. Its dope. Good idea.

This was absolutely perfect i loved every bit of this. And thank you for treating Cyclops with some actual respect.

I did enjoy it very much. However I think the Plot of a villain wanting to use rogues power has already been done. It would be cool to have leaned into rogues villain origin turned hero. And maybe have kitty been the point of view character

OK, my pitch. Here we go: Mutants used to operate like 0.000001% of the globe, but since the blip's energy activated the mutant dormant gene, that number has increased exponentially. This has led to a great controversy around how to treat mutants. This is brought to ahead when the supervillain Arcade (Ben Schwartz), a psychotic techno path, shows up. He has kidnapped a bunch of mutants from around the world, put them in a place he calls "murder-world", is forcing them to fight to the death, and is streaming it to the world. This has led to a massive controversy, as an argument is spreading that the X-Gene is a sign of celestial/eternal DNA, therefore not qualifying you as human. Insane pastor and US senator Will Stryker (Matthew McConaughey) is the main voice against this, attempting to convince the world that these mutants don't deserve or qualify for any help. The X-Men, which here consists of Professor X (Ralph Fiennes), Cyclops (Tom Hopper), Jean Grey (Rose Leslie), Iceman (Justice Smith), Angel (Rege Jean-Page) and Beast (Joel Edgerton), are trying to convince the world that mutants are good, whilst trying to look for Arcade and Murder World. At the same time, the Brotherhood of Mutants, a terrorist group led by Magneto (Jason Isaacs), with the notable member of Mystique (Sofia Boutella), are active, looking for Arcade as well, but through much more violent means. This highlights the differences between the two factions, along with showing how the world views mutants. Plus, Murder World can introduce us to other mutants forced to fight, such as Jubilee, Gambit, etc. I haven't really thought beyond that though. Movie 2: Mr Sinister (Hugh Grant comedy casting, I'd actually say Tom Ellis) kidnaps the OG X-Men, and begins conducting experiments. Xavier forms a new team, Wolverine (IDK, Tom Hardy), Storm (Jodie Turner-Smith), Nightcrawler (Matthias Schweighofer), Colossus (Florian Munteanu) and others I won't cast here. Rogue (Lily James) will also debut here, as the Brotherhood attempt to capitalise through a mass recruitment scheme. Jean is tortured further by Sinister, leading to a clone called Madeline Pryor. Angel's wings are removed as well Movie 3: Sinister uses his research to resurrect Apocalypse, who starts plans for world destruction, forcing mutants to team up and stop him. Apocalypse's Four Horseman are Angel, Madeline Pryor, Psyloche and Gambit (I like the idea of Sinister preparing the Horsemen previously). Meanwhile, the Hellfire Club, led by Emma Frost (Rosamund Pike) and Sebastian Shaw (Rufus Sewell) start to turn Jean into the new Black Queen, as Magneto starts to investigate them. Movie 4 (and final): Jean is controlled by the Hellfire Club, goes psycho, kills many, many people, dies. Magneto and X team up to build Krakoa, and the mutants retire to their own nation. In between films: A high school drama called "the worst mutants", starring X-Ceptional, a mutant with the power to explode once. He is in school with his weird friends, such as Beak, Maggot and Eye-Guy. Quentin Quire and his "Alpha Gang" of powerful mutants, serve as the bullies, while Armour and Jubilee can serve as the cool girls. Features cameos from the X-Men as the films occur in the background. Plus, the teachers are Banshee and Forge, neither of whom are part of the X-Men anymore.

Wait… where is Jubilee?

Thank you for using Storm for something useful. She is an omega level mutant that has been wasted time and time again. Great pitch but i wish it was a Disney+ series to give this a longer run time.

My pitch fir the opening scene: The movie opens on two guards on the top of a building patrolling the perimeter. They're having some small conversations about staying vigilant for mutants. Then we see a shadowy figure fly over them and they turn around to figure out what it was and before they can contact anyone else, they are not out by Angel who radios to the other X-Men that the roof has been secured. Then we see someone riding a bicycle up to the front of the building and the guards try to stop them but they are beat up and when the person takes off their masks reveal that it's Jubilee popping gum. She radios to the others that the front entrance has been secured and then it flashes to the back of the building to show that ice man has frozen the guards in the rear. Scott, Jean and Storm enter the building with a warning from Beast through coms that they need to be extra stealthy. Which is why everyone is wearing black at this point. The three of them make their way through the building disarming security cameras and sensors as they go. When they reach the asset Scott is a little too hasty and accidentally trips an alarm. That's when the walls start to come down and it reveals that we are in the danger room and this is an exercise and now we get to see the X-Men fighting in the danger room as a team. I feel like this is a better opening than the one we got in the last stand.

I think it could have tied really well into the overall story if, instead of Weapon Plus, it was Sinister who experimented on Logan. Just an idea, as I would have loved to have seen more of him in this pitch, but I loved the video as it is.

I like how you said angel observes the X-terrior 4:29

Bro is doing the x-men justice 🔥🔥🔥

Christian Bale as Mr Sinister...I am sold; that alone makes me want to finance your vision if I could...

I dont think anyone in the upper MCU executives has ever seen that video of what Stan Lee said at the beginning of the video. That, they dont care about his opinion on the IP he helped make so popular in the 1st place.

I think Gifted portrayed the mutant experience almost perfectly, sure the show wasn’t great but showing how mutants are treated by human civilians rather than just government officials with such depth was something that the movies never delve deep enough into

Austin Butler as Gambit is peak

Magneto threatening to kill Rogue to raise the stakes... it kinda fits. But to be interesting I think it needs to feel like it's a plausible scenario. If the X-Men are taking her to Mr. Sinister for the fight, Magneto's threat will kick in too late to be relevant. Plus, it's not clear how he would find her. Not a major plot hole, but something that conceivably could be tightened up.

Im sorry, folks but in terms of filmmaking, X-Men Days of Future Past is pretty darn perfect. John Campea came close to saying the same thing when he reviewed the movie

As a big X-Men fan myself I think your movie pitch was fantastic but I'd think it would work even better in a Netflix series!

Great film idea. You're 100% right about Cyclops. Cyclops has to be an alpha. The original Cyclops was 6'3" 205lbs. And a great leader. I think the love triangle should be saved for the sequel though. Unfortunately Disney owns Marvel. Marvel comics has been dead since 2009. Disney wants to push certain agendas which is why they won't do X-MEN the right way. Great script idea. You should write it just in case.

The idea of DDL playing an older, long haired Magneto is too fucking good of an idea to ever actually happen

If you knew what truth actually was you'd be scared to know it.

goood video thanks for making it!

Having Scott Summers innovate a plan in the middle of a fight that is based on stuff he knew when they planned the attack seems like a minor plot hole. But the imagery of a cataclysmic hurricane submerging an island does tap into concerns about rising sea levels and hurricanes increasing in intensity.

This is a nice pitch for an X-Men movie. My pitch however is slightly different. I have 7 members on the team as well, but different. It includes Professor X, Cyclops, Phoenix, Storm, Beast, Iceman, and Angel. Personally, I think they should focus on the original 5 members, plus having Storm as a founding member as well. Wolverine, Gambit, and Rogue should be saved for other films after the first one. I do have Mr. Sinister as the main villain, but I think he should be more obsessed with the current core roster of the X-Men team, instead of being obsessed with Rogue because we’ve seen that already in the first Fox X-Men film. Magneto should be saved for later films like you said, but just don’t have him in this film, he can be mentioned, and even Wolverine can, but just not have them in the film. And of course give Iceman and Angel big main character roles in the film. That’s how I would do it, if I were to make my own X-Men film

Thank you for calling out comic book movies (cough, The Avengers (2012)) for having third acts that seem like CGI fests that aren't really that interesting.

YES. I’ve BEEN saying Austin Butler is the perfect Gambit ever since Elvis. You’re the first KZfaqr I’ve seen with the same idea!

I agree that Mr Sinister should be one of the first villains the X-men fight in the MCU as he is such a prominent villain in the franchise and has such a fun, deviously evil and suave personality that makes him such a fun villain with ties and connections to characters like Scott and Jean. I also appreciate how much focus you gave Soctt, as many fans agree he should get more screen time and be the protagonist of the franchise. My casting for some of the X-men characters in this movie includes: Brenton Thwaites as Cyclops/Scott Summers Rose Leslie or Jane Levy as Jean Grey/Marvel Girl Milo Gibson, Taron Egerton or Jared Keeso as James Logan Howlett/Wolverine Joel Edgerton as Hank McCoy/Beast Jodie Turner-Smith or Anna Diop, as Ororo Munroe/Storm Brandon Flynn as Iceman Kele Palmer or Julia Garner as Anna Maria/Rogue Francis Civil or Austin Butler as Remy Lebou/Gambit Ralph Fiennes or Pip Torrens a Charles Xavier/Professor X Kaitlyn Dever or Maude Apatow as Kitty Pride/Shadowcat Louis Hofmann as Kurt Wagner/Nightcrawler Danila Kozlovsky as Peter Rasputin/Colossus Tom Ellis as Nathaniel Essex/Mr Sinister

I like how Iceman and Angel arent just dismissed or killed off. Maybe they could have a moment to shine later on?

Cyclops being so stern and all about the mission kinda kills Cyclops' character for me. He's basically the Professor's perfect soldier - an extension of him. He doesn't become militaristic until way down the line. Jean, while warm, is also usually there to be the reassuring voice in his head when Scott is in doubt (which early on, is often).

Is this a classroom presentation or some graduation ceremony?

Personally I would do a tv show following the comics but will be slightly different of course

I think Dark Avengers Movie can be possible as 1.Justin Hammer as Iron Patriot or Titanium man 2.John Walker as US agent Abomination 3.Ares is counterpart to thor 4.Yelena as Crimson widow 5.Bullseye as Hawkeye 6.Yon-Rogg as Captain Marvel 7.Mac gargan can be Spider-Man as he got the black suit first and corrupting it befor it gets to Peter Parker Valentina being Nick fury of the group along with Ross Villain could be Sentry for the first half but we will know that the void has controlling him from the beginning. Abomination could die so red Hulk or skarr can be next Hulk Some other members could be ghost white wolf (Bucky barnes) sabertooth(Wolverine) moon stone (Ms marvel) How do you like my idea pls reply....

I think we really have to hit on how rouge got her strength and flight. What better tim than now 😂😂

Glen Powell should play Cyclops.

I think having the tension between wolverine and Scott is enough, the love triangle is honestly tiring, so I think just having tension just be the two of them without Jean is enough imo

This was dope

I'm a fan of most of this. But an I missing the part where we explained who Rogue stole the power of flight from?

Nice use of Cyclops drawing from DiviantArt. I favorited that version of Cyclops.

Glenn Powell for cyclops & yes give me Taron as wolverine!!! I’ve been saying Austin butler as gambit this is amazing bro!!

I like the pitch but why the 5 year gap? Couldn't Rogue be introduced with the rest of the team

When Storm leaves Ana's parents' house, she should slam the door with a gust of wind.

For Mr. Sinister I was thinking of Jason Isaacs, I think he has the look slightly better than Bale. Nonetheless these castings are 🔥

HEnrY CaVIlL as CYCLOPS YESSIR THE ONLY REDEMPTION FROM HIS Character assassination… ):

Taron Edgerton would be great. I saw Scott Eastwood as an option too

I’m sold

Would be nice to see jubilee and morph

Where are Colosus & Nightcrawler? Won't they be in this?

Imagine if there was a scene where Rogue's parents find themselves confronted by MAGNETO for disowning their daughter: MAGNETO: "Bigot, ingrate, sycophant, worm. This is your dream. My kind splayed before you, powerless and afraid. All the X-Men have done is use their awesome power to protect a world that hates and fears them. Behold their reward. What must we do to be good enough? Is this the high road's destination? If so, I say as I have too many times before, NEVER AGAIN."

Sinister could have just kidnapped Mimic ha

Rogue flies off how? Whos power did she absorb at that point?

Lessgo!I love how what you did with Jean she wasn’t really an interesting character to me you fixed that by making her the mother of the group.

it could be cool to have wolverine staying on the island and drowning. than magneto arrives, sensing his adamantium super easily, and just pools him up and in to the jet. wolverine is unconscious, and beast starts pressing and getting water out of wolverines lungs. logan wakes and instinctively stabs beast through the shoulder. beast roars with pain and anger, punching logan unconscious again, really hurting his hand from punching adamantium. the team separate the two and everyone start laughing like crazy.

I feel like the hole cyclops hesitation to save the mutants is very out of character for him this is the guy who idolized the fantastic four and wants above all to be a hero. In the comics he is the one that reminds even Charles of their mission for a better world he would’ve never hesitated he would’ve been the guy to say fuck it no I’m freeing them

I do like the hypothetical cast. Only thing is wolverine. Ive been wanting to see Oscar Isaac play wolverine for a long time.

Great pitch honestly perfect only problem is Rouge shouldn’t be able to fly if she literally just awakened her powers only reason rouge could fly is because she zapped all of carol danvers powers but clearly that didn’t happen yet so she shouldn’t be able to fly at all

Kerry Washington needs to be Storm. She’s been a badass for so long, she deserves it.

Nice pitch for an men movie no cap; how would you introduce X-men to the MCU

Sinister was not originally a mutant

Whos playing Iceman and Angel

I'd have Sinister actually kidnap Rogue after the parent visit. When they get to the island the Xmen see a bunch of dead clones. Sinister has been using his clones and samples trying to complete the transfer of powers. Thing is, he is successful. There you have the Maurauders or the Nasty Boys or a group of unnamed sinister clones with powers. Give one of the clones Madrox's powers so you can still have the Wolvie berserker rage moment too.

Wait but you didn’t cast Iceman or did I miss it?

So Magneto’s appearance was for nothing? Plus, a missing opportunity for an Archangel arc? Making the fight with Sinister all the more personal? Iceman disappearing from the rest of the movie after Angel’s capture and transformation by Sinister? Archangel leading the Marauders?

I thought that was f--- awesome!!!!!!

Taron Eggerton is a horrible choice for Wolverine. Wolverine is not supposed to look like he just graduated high school.

Sinister definitely needs some henchmen beyond an army of pale skinned Christian Bales. Maybe a version of the marauders or the nasty boys

Iceman & Angel weren't in your initial list of 7 X-Men.

I feel like there should be more connection to the MCU (if this is an MCU movie) or more connection to humans, other than Rogue's father being a bigot. The "I'm so hurt humans don't accept us" stuff seems borderline trite without more context. If mutants exist in the MCU, they exist in the context of "The Avengers" (heroes, but kinda feared heroes) and Skrulls. I could picture a bunch of humans taking the position that The Avengers are dangerous (but necessary)... sorta like the military and Intelligence Community are seen. The Skrulls are definitely mistrusted and mostly hated as invaders. And mutants are... scary b/c they represent change that people don't understand and are fighting against accepting. In fact, in the post covid era, I think it's fair to assume that a significant block of people would actively not believe in mutants or think they were engineered by scientists to get people to live in fear and follow rules. And to be fair, I think some mutants would be open to the hypothesis that they were subjects who were genetically engineered as part of some plan they can only guess at.

I love this pitch but if your going to be bold enough to say this is the perfect pitch I think Rogues relationship to mystique and being a former villain is very important to her character but for one movie well done

Would you take some friendly criticism? It be interesting share each others point of view on making an X-men movie.

The costumes are a big part of why ive been dissapointed with the xmen movies so far. among other things.

The casting you have is on point! Especially Logan. I think that Wolverine would be great as a supporting character in an X-Men movie, who can star in his own solo film

I love all of these casting choices except maybe Charles... Jeffery Wright as Beast and Robb Stark as Cyclops is 🤌🏽

Great story, but I think Anna should only have her dad. In the comics, her mom wasn’t around

And then this happens, and then that happens, and boom WOOSH that thing happens, she feels sad, he feels mad, SURPRISE Daniel Day Lewis cameo where he says a thing and then a thing happens after one thing and and and...

How much power does Professor X have to locate mutants and communicate telepathically over great distances? The kerfuffle of losing comms with Wolverine seems a relatively small issue to address. But if Mister Sinister has some sort of cloaking capability to hide from Prof X, this seems like it should be mentioned. If this version of Professor X doesn't have Cerebro... it seems like something movie goers expect in the mansion.

I think you forgot to fancast Angel

Great video movie i will ur movie

Hm. There's stuff I like and stuff I don't like. I feel like some characters are just there because you want them to be there. Like Gambit. He feels out of place.

How fo you make a sequel.

VERY GOOD VIDEO I WANT X MEN MCU LIKE THIS only thing i dont really like is who plays rogue and storm i think they should do Deborah Ayorinde looks exactly like storm and i think you picked for rogue has looks but her voice isn't southern so i say kiki plamer

That's a good cast choice

modern "woke" writers could learn a thing or two from that beginning part w/ Stan Lee

You got the casting

You are a disgrace to Superframe’s name do not mention him

cast is really generic. Would be nice to do something that isn’t just 90s or characters we’ve seen in the front lines a million times. Pacing is also nonexistent.
