Yeah, there is a story that goes something like this.....Agent Vinod wrote:Does Feige have anything to do with Inhumans?
After what one source describes as "several years of frustration," Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has pulled off a reorganization of the vaunted film company that has him reporting to Disney studio chief Alan Horn as opposed to the infamously micromanaging Marvel Entertainment CEO Isaac "Ike" Perlmutter.
Feige, the architect of Marvel's transition from a flailing comic book company into a film powerhouse that was sold to Disney for $4 billion in 2009, is said to have vented his unhappiness to Horn and Disney CEO Bob Iger earlier this summer. The reorganization was put into effect last week, according to sources.
https://www.theverge.com/2016/11/15/136 ... e-imax-abcMarvel’s Inhuman characters are officially moving to TV. Instead of the originally planned movie, Marvel announced yesterday that the company has greenlit an Inhumans TV show that will debut in theaters for a limited two-week run through a new partnership with IMAX. The agreement also includes IMAX helping to finance the development of the pilot and series, a first for the company.
The newly minted Inhumans series is scheduled to air on ABC in 2017, and will focus on the core characters from the Inhumans comic books: the Attilan Royal Family, a group that includes characters like Black Bolt, Medusa, Karnak, and Lockjaw.
The Inhumans were always to me see to be a "replacement" for the X-Men and even on Agents of SHIELD they were X-Men copies (very shallow copies, btw) where they would loosely adapt X-Men stories and this past season it seems that they were trying to loosely adapt House of M with the Framework.lsgreg wrote:I am a little apprehensive about the Inhumans. They were trying to introduce them in Agents of Shield and totally abandon the concept in Season 4. They always seemed a weak concept of "Mutants" in the MCU since they can't use them. I do like the Netflix series from MCU. I am gonna binge watch "The Defenders" here soon.
In my opinion, it isn't working when it gets boiled down to the nitty gritty of things. Inhumans' history in the comics has been about Xenophobia and other cultures while Mutants have been about Civil Rights. But when they are trying to make the Inhumans about Civil Rights, IMO, it's not working. At least for me, personally and in my opinion, it seems that AoS has ripped off a bunch of X-Men stories and try making them about Inhumans and/or their main characters (and I would say that this has been happing for at least for the past two seasons).The Romulan Republic wrote:Yes, they're pretty obviously being used as stand-ins for mutants, though understandably since the X-Men rights aren't available for the MCU.
