How about instead of doing some multiversal cheese bullshit by having the mutants fall out of the universe ass-crack, how about do something clever like actually having house of M already have ocurred?
Scarlet Witch could have already wiped out the mutants then sacrificed most of her godly power and memories, only sparing herself and her brother. Maybe they can play it off as some sort of sacrifice to for Cthon or something.
>Houe of M
They could have do it during Infinity War-Endgame. now there's no reason
Or just keep the x-men's universe separate from the rest. Who cares now any way cap, stark, widow, are already gone your not gonna see those core interactions with the members that matter... Thor, hawkeye and hulk will be gone soon too.
It's almost like retconing a fictional character narrative to fit a marketing strategy is a bad thing.
How is it that Marvel in the 60's had absolutely no problem introducing mutants to an existing universe but when it comes to the movies everyone things they have to come up with some convoluted nonsense that'll just make normies confused?
>mutants exist
>have been in hiding but public incidents are making them a known issue
>now the X-Men are here
There you fucking go, literally the plot of both the original comic and the first movie. No complicated bullshit that requires watching other movies to understand, no universe altering cosmological crap, just straight and to the point.
>people have always had mutant DNA but it was dormant for most except a few (namor, apocalypse, logan, magneto who had it activated by nazi hydra experiments and has been cryogenically frozen since then)
>surge of energy from thanos shenanigans activated it in everyone with those genes
>association with thanos and the trauma of the snap gives a reasonable excuse for why people hate and feat mutants and not other super powered people
Done.
If the x-men get their own universe, it'll be better to see those strictly x-men stories and more mutant characters getting screen time. As opposed to sharing screen time with like antman and black panther.
