I thought it would be a good idea to gather together all speculation on the next movies under one thread, that way any ideas and theories can be easily found, rather than having to trawl through a dozen threads to find what you want.
I have several ideas as to where the next couple of movies could go.
As we all know, X3 will concern itself with Phoenix. But I find it ahrd to believe that Singer will manage to fit the entire Phoenix story into one movie, so we could be looking at a two-parter, or even a trilogy.
Then what about the Sentinels? It was rumoured that they were going to be the main focus of X2, but there you go.
And then we have things like the Legacy Virus, and Apocalypse. And the X-Cutioners Song storyline.
And then there's characters that have long been a central part of the X-Universe, that ahve so fair failed to make an appearance. Characters like Beast, Gambit and the rest are strong fan favourites, and I think that they would make some great additions to the roster.
What I'd like to see, is between X2 and X3 (backstory to be explained briefly in X3) Hank McCoy mutates into the original Beast i.e. improved agility, outsized hands and feet etc... and so turns up in X3 as Beast. We would then have perhaps one or two movies with him as part of the team before Legacy happens.
If Gambit turns up in the deleted scenes that would be fantastic. It was so odd the way his name was suddenly removed from the cast list after the films release.
I was pleased to see Jubilee in there at the end. I should think that Jubilee, Colossus and Shadowcat will feature slightly more prominently in the next installment, the same way that Iceman and Pyro did in the first movie.
I think if they were going to do some kind of massive intricate plot, it would be best saved for a TV spin-off from the movie series. either a series of TV films an hour long, a Stargate SG-1 live-action half hour series, or an all CGI series. This TV show would run alongside the movies, wtih characters from each cropping up in the other. For instance, Bishop could appear in the movies, but if the TV show is far enough along the timeline, he could crop up there once or twice, or vice-versa.
If Fox are careful enough not to upset the fans, they could mess around with the timeline and mythology whilst still creating some fantastically exciting storylines.
I think with the X-Men license, Fox have the opportunity to do something very very cool, and very very exciting. Let's hope they use it wisely.
That's enough from me, so let's hear your theories and comments.
