They have a huge opportunity to show that although the movies are separate, the characters exist in the same universe. It seems like they're only using the two characters as a way of telling Marvel "Hey, you can't have them. But if you really want them, then we'll get them first."

It truly is lame and childish.

Well, unless I'm missing something, there's nothing barring Marvel from casting the same actor in the role of Quicksilver... I mean, I can't think of a situation where terms disallowing you from working for someone else after your obligations are up would be deemed reasonable...?

It won't happen, Whedon will cast someone else

A crossover is very unlikely at this point. As much as we'd like it, it wouldn't make sense from a business standpoint. Marvel and Fox are competing with one another. The only way I see it working out is if a third party offers a monetary incentive or both studios work out a mutually-beneficial deal. The only hope I had left for a crossover was Fox's right to the X-Men characters eventually expiring. I guess that will never happen.

Disney will eventually buy all the rights back from everyone. But thats not going to happen until superhero movies are not super-red-hot anymore, which doesn't look like it will be anytime soon.

Disney could probably do it now if they wanted

i have no hope for this film.. they couldn't do a coherent story for the first ones, what chance do they have when they're messing with time lines too, pity Joss Whedon wasn't doing it...

I would up for a Whedon X-Men film but sadly it will never happen :(

I bet Marvel/Disney are regretting that the rights have been sold to FOX. Imagine if Marvel still had the rights to all characters film-wise. Though I guess this is the only way we'll be able to have plenty of movies based off of Marvel characters.

Though, completely off topic, I'm not really a fan of Robert Liefeld :p

I find it VERY hard to believe that Fox has the X-Men rights forever... LOL Everything expires at some point, and it would be ridiculous to sign a deal that didn't...

They will expire one day but not for the forseeable future

That logo is pretty awesome. I really hope that the Sentinel action is LOADS better than what we saw in X3, lol. Everyone had high hopes for the Sentinels in that movie.

I second that... LOL

It's going to be tough waiting for this movie. Especially with all these teasers... LOL

^Exactly what I mean, haha. All we got to see is a head that didn't even look like a proper sentinel.

I second that... LOL

It's going to be tough waiting for this movie. Especially with all these teasers... LOL

I REALLY hope they're not going to give too much away with all the teasers. I know that I won't see all the teasers anyway, just like with "Man of Steel" etc. I feel like they spoil half of the movie these days with all the teasers, trailers and tv spots.

Mavels old, or should I say, original deal with studios, Fox, Sony, were that they keep the rights as long as they make a new movie within 5 years. That's why we get a spiderman reboot from Sony so quick and why Fox is going to do any X-men related films they can think of. Whoever worked out this deal for Marvel was an idiot at the time because not only is it hard to get them back right now but Marvel also gets such a small cut from the profits that it's pretty much a joke.

    • hands down the worst version of Windows to date and sadly I think it's only downhill from here
    • I've never known a release to have so much pressure than this one. There is so much riding on the whole games industry because of everything that's changed in the past five years. That if this is a complete flop then I think the whole games industry is done unless something radically changes.
    • Windows 11 is now five years old by Taras Buria Windows 11 is now half a decade old. Five years ago, on June 24, 2021, Microsoft announced its latest operating system, designed to "bring you closer to what you love." Today, Windows 11 celebrates its fifth birthday. The launch of Windows 11 was interesting. Rumors about Microsoft introducing a Windows 10 successor popped up weeks before the public announcement, and a few days later, an entire preview build leaked online, allowing everyone to take a peek at what Microsoft was preparing. A few weeks later, Microsoft confirmed that Windows 11 was a thing and officially unveiled its next-gen operating system. Early versions of Windows 11 promised quite a lot. A redesigned, more modern user interface, a brand new Start menu and taskbar, improvements to virtual desktops and window snapping, Android app support, Teams integrated into the taskbar, Windows Widgets, a new version of the Microsoft Store, improved security, and more. Some of those features were welcomed, while others were received with heavy criticism. Besides missing taskbar and Start menu features, many disliked the steep hardware requirements, which kicked out PCs that were back then still perfectly fine. TPM and Secure Boot became mandatory, causing a spike in sales of dedicated TPM chips for motherboards. Double-layered context menus were disliked as well, and it is something that Microsoft still has to fix. Additionally, with time, some of Windows 11's exclusive features were simply killed. Microsoft removed the Teams integration and discontinued Android app support. During the early days of Windows 11, Microsoft was quite unwilling to address things that users criticized most. After four years on the market, management changes, and heated competition from the Mac camp, Microsoft finally decided to give in and take its operating system back to the drawing board to fix everything users had been complaining about for years. Microsoft is now redesigning the Start menu, adding missing taskbar features, improving Windows Update, fixing Windows 11's context menu, and more. Some believe all that warrants a new Windows 12 release, but for now, it appears that Windows 11 will stick around for a while. With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11!
