Colossus and Robotman



So, we know that Deadpool will be coming to the MCU, still played by Ryan Reynolds, but how much if anything from his first two films will be carried over?  Will he still be working with Colossus out of the Westchester X-Mansion?  I imagine that Marvel will not want to be stuck with all of the choices that the Fox Studios made.  Perhaps it will just be Reynolds in the role that makes the cut, with everything else rewritten.  It will be interesting to see what direction is taken, and how fourth wall-breaking Deadpool reacts to it.

Maybe Colossus and Robot Boy (a major character in Harvey Comics' Super Kids (a superhero group in G. I. Juniors (a comic book related (in artwork) to Sad Sack, etc.); Colossus has a flesh and blood human form, and Robot Boy is described as being armored like a knight (with exposed hands), NOT a robot.

Also how about Sarge (Star Comics' "ALF") and Sarge (Sad Sack), who probably were both drawn by one of the artists who moved to Marvel's Star Comics from an on hiatus (at the time) Harvey Comics.

Less than a week after Xmas, and already Trask's new toys are getting broken?

For shame, Bolivar! ;-)

P.S. @ Anon: Not to mention Sarge Steel (from Silver Age Charlton Comics).

Colossus could carry over, just wipe his X-Men history (in the beginning), and make him a Russian adventurer. With the multiverse a thing now in the MCU, it should be a simple fix.

And the X-Men should begin with the Original Five anyway. CYCLOPS is the leader. Give him his due.

I would like to see a movie that starts with Stan Lee in his Watcher cameo outfit (outtakes or CGI) narrating that "after Dark Phoenix destroyed that other movie universe, Deadpool was the only survivor. So I kicked him into the Marvel Universe, just for giggles".

Cut to kids play kickball with Deadpool's head until he wakes up and starts growing his body back. The rest of the movie is Deadpool trying to figure out where he is and the new status quo. ("Huh? Quicksilver is dead? Wanda looks like that?"). All the while trash-talking the Fox and Phase I Marvel movies. With as many cameos, video-bombed outtakes and cut scenes, etc., of past and future Marvel movie and TV characters as they can fit.

Maybe it isn't a movie, but is like a hour-long mockumentary for Disney+ or Comicon, once they have some footage of their new shows and the next phase movies to tease.

@Jay Johnson: How about where the Jetsons apply to join the human Disney characters?; their architecture and fashion sense could fit in!

@Cary Comics: I was thinking about the likes of Aladdin, Quasimodo, etc.; also Jetsons visual culture looks marketed (ask(?) fictional character Dick Loudon ((Newhart) in the episode "Baby, I'm Your Handyman") and Disney often played "hardball" when marketing its entertainment.

Haven't made this kind of comment for a while--these two got mixed together for the fan-made New Amalgam Comics, as Robust Man of the X-Patrol:

@Anonymous: I remember the Jetsons as Hanna-Barbera first animated them during the 1960's. Very much different from the Disney characters of the 1990's!

HAPPY NEW YEAR


spoiler?

Could somebody explain why everyone goes back to beginning of time in Crisis? Just cause everything was destroyed in the present doesn't mean anything changed in the past.

@Jay: I like that mockumentary idea. I doubt Mr. Feige would ever go for it, but it would be an incredible bit of fun, and probably a bigger piece of cinematic history than most people would imagine.

@Bob and Jay: failing that, how about Arachnerd and the Cobweb Kid vs. Morlun's Mom?

@Anonymous: I thought you hated Arachnerd and the Cobweb Kid? :-|
