New Mutants

[Evildrider]

This may be a bit early but Josh Boone of the Fault in our Stars has just signed on to direct a New Mutants movie.  Don't really know/care who that is but damn I've wanted to see a New Mutants movie forever.

I can't even think of what storyline they'd even do other than just being a generic teen angst movie.

[Evildrider]

I am sure they'll probably do something more original story wise with just the first movie being the team builder/start up thing.  I'd really love to see a Demon Bear Saga story done though. 

Plus I am just hoping they get Cable and Domino in a movie finally.  Also Warlock, if done right, could be the next Groot.

[Ard]

I doubt you'll ever see Warlock.  He's seriously way far into hard to explain territory, and this isn't marvel that's doing the movie directly.  I suspect at best we're going to get an angsty story about Cypher and what happened there.  I'd be happy to be proven wrong.

[Nevermore]

So will Sunspot have fire powers? 

[Lantyssa]

I'd be more worried about them pulling Warlock off convincingly than his explanation.  If they could though, he'd be awesome.

[Khaldun]

I assume that after Apocalypse, the X-Men will settle down to a kind of "status quo" situation with the school and that lets them introduce a group of New Mutants (and maybe the Hellfire Club and the Hellions too). I'm sure the appeal is to the Hunger Games crowd and that they'll streamline a lot--none of the Claremont-ish characterizations in the original book.

[Evildrider]

This could also be the beginning of the supposed reboot.  Age of Apocalypse is supposed to be the end of that line of X-Men movies.

Doesn't Wolverine 3 come after Apocalypse?

Doesn't Wolverine 3 come after Apocalypse?

he's not technically only part of that line of x-men movies.

None of these will ever be done. Cable's backstory alone would never play onscreen because it is literally one of the dumbest fucking things ever created in comics (especially if you include the Stryfe shit). The Demon Bear Saga is a fantastic story that would not translate to a superhero movie at all, especially if this is done in the Fox X-Universe where magic isn't even considered a thing.

[Lakov_Sanite]

where magic isn't even considered a thing.

A mutant did it.

[Nevermore]

The Demon Bear relied very heavily on Bill Sienkiewicz.  Without his art it just wouldn't work, so I don't know how you'd do that in a film without looking silly.

[HaemishM]

Amen. As an animated movie, it would be incredible. Trying to translate that to a live action thing that didn't look silly would be a feat.

I wish Marvel would do a straight reprint of The Demon Bear saga; the book they put out last year shoe-horned Warpath and Ghost Rider's fight with the bear in with the two Dani Moonstar stories, and I have that in my Kyle/Yost X-Force collections. I guess the original Claremont/Sienkiewicz story only ammounts to about 3-4 issues, though, so some padding is to be expected. Shame I already own most of the padding.
