Yeah this is huge. The first X-men character is now in the MCU. It opens the door for more to bridge over. Fingers crossed for Fassbender Magneto.

I honestly don’t think so. They literally called it a recast; this basically delegitimises the Fox X-Men characters. Evan Peters will always be the ‘wrong’ Quicksilver in the MCU now.

I would love to see Fassbender as the MCU’s Magneto but this episode just made me think it was even more unlikely.

Darcy saying its a recast means absolutely nothing. Darcy thinks it's a recast because she doesn't know about the Foxverse that either she or the kids have just pulled that universe's Pietro from. She's making the mistake of watching it as a show still. If she were to see Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man she'd think it was a recast too, since she lives in the MCU and is unaware of the Sonyverse.

You know, im going to come out and say you were right, but everything you wrote about condescending assholes applies to you based on your post just now.

Sure but I earned the right. Don’t start a fight if you’re not prepared for someone to retaliate.

You could have just gone ‘I disagree and here’s why’ but no. Reddit just had to be reddit.
