I think they wanted to have a superhero film for 2019 since we all know Gambit is not going to make it. And for some reason it made more sense for them to delay New Mutants and add more horror content than Dark Phoenix.

THR's take on it:
Now I don't know if said insider is from Disney or Fox but Disney has been releasing lower budget films until just last year in cinemas but to disappointing financial results. So I don't think they will be opposed to lower budget theatrical features as long as they have been successfully established previously. Iger's comments on Deadpool is one such example. If The New Mutants are a hit both commercially and critically, then I don't think Disney will discard the franchise, especially since the film's connection to the main X-Men universe will be tangential at best, at least for this initial film. Heck, post buyout they could even downplay or remove any connections that are in place already.
And that's assuming the plan is to indeed reboot the main X-Men franchise within the MCU. If the X-Verse remains its own separate thing, then chances of NM sequels (in case of success on the first go) are even better.
Basically, the performance of D2, New Mutants, and Dark Phoenix next year will determine the future of their respective series.

Also when do you think they will present officially the Fantastic Four and X-Men in the MCU?? I think we will have a post credit scene about them on 'Avengers 4'
Depending on how they work things out creatively, a post-credits Avengers cameo on Deadpool 2 or Dark Phoenix would make the Internet explode.

I wonder how long it'll take for us to see change on the consumer side of things. Renaming the network, integrating the superheroes (outside of Deadpool probably), etc.
Perhaps the first sign will be seeing The Simpsons merchandise on Disney Stores.

It is a Disney world.

If this deal ends up going through, and with Disney launching its own exclusive streaming service...will the Netflix productions (Defenders and all the indivial series) become the new X-Men? In terms of lacking support through new comic series and merchandise, simply because Disney doesn't get all the money from them.

I really love this picture. It fits so well with the 80s horror style without being too on the nose.

If they are really going that route, the logical step is to take the 'Alien' off the title again. And probably slash the budget.
To be honest, that's the way it always should have been. Scott wanted to focus on the pure sci-fi aspect of Prometheus, and only shoe-horned the Alien stuff after the fan reaction. So now just stay true on that vision and at least make something that makes more sense.

You know why he got banned, right?
Please tell! I missed that part of the saga.

I didn't know what to expect, since I never read the comics, but it looks really great. Maybe even too scary for me to watch in a theater (I just don't like to get that immersed in a horror film).
I love the current trend of expanding the creative horizons of the SH genre. This might not gross as much as a regular blockbuster, but it can carve a nice niche among the horror audience.

Nice result overall then. Much less than Dawn, but on par with Rise. I was expecting much worse before the China numbers. It remains a solid franchise for Fox.

The premise has potential to provide some very funny performances, but the rest of the footage seems terribly generic, which is made worse by comparing it to a film with such a strong identity as Jumanji.

Chris Stuckmann approves as well.

War for the Planet of the Apes is a stunning masterpiece. It's brutal, bleak and authentically moving. I'm floored. Bravo

Logan will finish ~1m above F8.
Wolverine movie had better legs than F8
Multi was 2.40-2.45x for F5,6,7. For F8 it's gonna be ~2.28x.
2.56x for Logan.
F8 OS makes all this moot, but still interesting.
I haven't followed those movies closely, so I'm absolutely shocked at this.

There was a recent British mini-series ( that can work as a movie If you combine the 3 episodes) and I found it terrific. It would really work on the big screen.
P.S. Was I the only one who found many similarities on Hunger Games. I had continuous deja vu's.
That miniseries was insanely good. Brilliant in all aspects.

I think Fox has learned its lesson now after the floppage of Fant4stic and the success of Deadpool and Logan. Apocalypse flaws were down purely to Singer/Kinberg creative decisions, as opposed to studio meddling.
Wasn't the studio the one who wanted a more CGI fest instead of Singer's style of traditional VFX?

Great trailer, although I didn't think the music merged well.

I'm with Goffe, I definitely think we have the right to expect more than a lazy, AvP-esque movie from the series that brought us Alien and Aliens.
Which is good, since we are getting much more than that?

Scott and the writers have achieved an outstanding balance in Alien: Covenant among numerous different elements: Intelligent speculation and textbook sci-fi presumptions, startlingly inventive action and audience-pleasing old standbys, philosophical considerations and inescapable genre conventions, intense visual splendor and gore at its most grisly. The drama flows gorgeously and, unlike in many other franchises in which entries keep getting longer every time out, this one is served up without an ounce of fat. It provides all the tension and action the mainstream audience could want, along with a good deal more.
I love that excerpt from THR's review. This seems like everything I wanted for the series.

It’s a complex film and one you’ll be talking about after.
This pleases me so much.

Now that you mention it, it's a very good sign that he's got another $100M hit after being done with Wolverine. Studios will continue to trust his public appeal.
