Marvel's Inhumans series

The Inhumans would have worked better as an animated show.

The Inhumans would've worked better as a MOVIE!

• Ike Permitter nods

Or just admit just because another movie company owns the rights to the X-Men, there's no reason to pout like a whiny baby and try to make a "who cares?" license you own the new X-Men, and torpedo the actual X-Men in your comics.

It ain't gonna work, bub.

The irony is if the merger happens, then Disney will have the rights again...

Meaning this entire thing was just a waste of time & resources.

Nothing beneficial was gained. Money was lost, actors reps got burned, people wasted their time watching this crap......

Tell me one good thing that came out of this show that wasn't Lockjaw?

How about an animated movie?

Black Bolt disintegrating his parents was funny!

It really is impressive how much and on how many levels that scene failed.

Good fucking riddance.

Hey, maybe Marvel can retcon this entire mess via Infinity War and start again with a movie?

That would work. I'd be ok with that.

How is Kamala supposed to work? If she remains an Inhuman...

They can either ignore that or give her no ties to the Inhuman Royal family. Daisy is still popular despite being Inhuman.

Show her getting hit with a nonspecific cannister of gas that grants her superpowers. Or skip the part where she actually becomes empowered except as a vague flashback or bits of dialogue entirely. It worked with Spider-Man.

This worked for Spider-Man because everyone knows already how he gets his powers. But one doesn't have to make it complicated. Kamala just needs to end up in the wrong (or right) kind of rain.

I'm guessing she's probably going to be a mutate, because then you can have who ever releases the mutating gas be the bad guy of her first film.

Who says that they will put mutants into the MCU in the first place? And why bother if there is already an explanation for people with powers on earth which works pretty universally?

Mutate, not mutant. In marvel terminology Mutates are people that got superpowers from something mutating them, like the Spider-Man, the Hulk, or the Fantastic Four, while mutants have the X-Gene grant them powers.

Like Disney wouldn't put mutants into the MCU after the merger happens.

For one, the merger won't be finalized until next year and then it will take some time to sort everything out. And I have the feeling that then the priority will be the Fantastic 4 and not the X-men, but in any case, Don't expect to see either before 2021 at the earliest, 2023 is way more realistic. That is a lot of time and a lot of MCU movies made to that point. And it is entirely possible that Feige will decide against adding the X-men if he feels that they don't fit.

That is all certainly true, but the deal is not something that cheap to where they can just relax with the current success they have been getting. If they want to make back the money on the deal should it happen, then I don't why Bog Iger would let Feige just store the rights of the X-Men in some garage collecting dust. Feige might be in charge, but it is a business at the end of the day no matter how much of a comic fan he is.

I agree they should not introduce them until a few years down the line, but at some point, they have to do something with mutants.

They can put the X-men in their own universe. Plus, Marvel studios has limited resources. I doubt that they have currently enough people to manage more than three movies per year.

I'm honestly not that surprised that Inhumans got cancelled. It didn't do well in the ratings and it has received a lot of negative reactions (especially from me). I can see the Inhumans being on the back burner for awhile until Marvel can figure out a better way to incorporate these characters into the Marvel films or TV shows. I guess if they had made it into a movie like they originally planned, the Inhumans probably would have been more successful.

I doubt it...the issue with Inhumans was from the get go that it was something Perlmutter wanted, one way or another, not something Feige or even Loeb had in mind.

Did they fired Perlmutter over what happened with the Inhumans?
