Beast brought the original 5 teenage x-men to the present (their future) to show them how much of a fuck up Cyclops is, and now cant send them back, so he messed with the space time continuum in a obvious huge way
its funny because its true

CBR's been going on about "MARVEL'S KILLING THE X-MEN!!!" since Schism happened.
Well... it would be nice. Marvel are treating the mutants as c-tier right now. At least Old Man Logan is enjoyable
Well at least we got the young Cyclops series where he travels with the Starjammers out of it.
Beast is very, very angry with Cyclops and his little mutant revolution (got to admit, Scott is a dick) but Hank stupidly pulls the original X-Men (Scott, Jean, Bobby, Warren and young Hank) from the past and wants to show the younger Cykes what he will become in the future. But he can't send them back to their own time. It was a very selfish reason though for ripping them out of their own time and well, the young X-Men are pretty scarred because of it. That's why Uatu is mad at Hank.

i get this. but it shortchanges the non mutant heroes quite a bit too. (minus iron man. fuck stark)
but i understand not wanting your faves to be shit on, but often times interesting things do come from it. as a daredevil fan trust me on that. he gets shit on like no other
Remember that time in the 90s when they were killing off mutants with mutant HIV.
Times really do change.
Oh, wait.

"i cant control it!"
so what he expected to happen wouldnt have and it would have fucked them
you can call it bullshit all you want, but outside interference was needed. hence, cyclops was lucky

Yeah, I feel this way as well. Jason Aaron's Wolverine and the X-Men was decent as well. Everything else X-Men related was disappointing.
Aaron's Wolverine & The X-Men is roughly 157 times better than Remender's highly overrated Uncanny X-Force
In my opinion of course

i like how this ignores how crazy that first line is
Cyclops' plan was to hijack a cosmic deathbird (which is notorious for making its hosts go apeshit) to force normal ass humans with latent x genes into becoming freaks of nature
just because he needs more soldiers to fight his revolution for him
that is literally magneto's evil plan from the first x-men movie

Technically since humans and inhumans are basically remnants of the eternal project, it's all good.
Basically the end game for humanity is to become Thanos who is a eternal. The Eternal of eternals

I really only know the x-men from all the cartoons and movies (with a few comic purchases sprinkled throughout), but it seems like a lot of people are ok with this. Me? This would make me sad.

The Inhumans will never have the "mystic" of the Mutants.

Technically, the solution required Iron Fist and Scarlet Witch to enact. The biggest issue was that Captain America never talked it out first, he came into the someone else's house and made unilateral orders.
Nah, he just wanted to reignite the X-gene. Any revolution following that was just the way things shook out.
Seriously, people getting bent on mutants having a fighting force in the Marvel Universe - where Sentinels, Reavers, Weapon X, and the Purifiers exist - is simply ignoring the truth. Mutants will never get a fair shake because of the narrative rules of the MU and as such, Cyclops being more militant will always be right.
Wolverine and the X-Men was a giant monument to "Cyclops was right, you need to teach mutant kids to fight". That's the problem, the overall X-Men narrative will always prove his point, because conflict drives the stories.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
Some of the kids were already fighting when they got there, and that was the problem. It was really about "Mutant kids need guidance. Great power and all that...".
Meanwhile Scott was a eugenicist.

you would think he would preach mutant pride first and foremost. because like before, there are far more mutants in hiding then there are known as x-men
Scott was about "I'm sick of people fucking with my kind like we are sub human trash"
Schism was terrible though and put Logan in a position he had no right to be in. Everything post that wouldn't nearly have been as dumb if they had pushed Storm instead of him against Scotts viewpoint.

The thing is, the MCU now has inhumans in a pretty similar situation (lots of them randomly being granted powers over the world in Agentsof SHIELD).
The movies just ignore them.

How the hell is "Pride" going to keep you alive when there about 5 different groups that want to kill you, 3 of which probably have government backing.
No Cyclops just ran out of fucks to give and wasn't going to just accept mutants being hunted down and killed for the crime of existing.
It's hilarious to me that they think they can kill the X-Men movies by cutting off X-Men comic books and merchandise, when at this point the truth of the matter is that the movies are what's driving sales of comics and merch. The X-Men films do everything for Marvel, letting them sell all kinds of high-margin junk to people. Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face.

having mutants not hate themselves to the degree that their hiding in sewers feeding off of rats and shit means you have more mutants with various powers united behind your cause. you can train them however you want then. and on top of it you would be saving those in the sewer from predator x and purifier attacks. noone reached out to the morlocks outside of storm, and thats a lot of mutants that could prove useful. although since most of them arent the best looking, scott probably doenst have much use for them

The MCU is barely connected between the movies, Netflix, and the TV shows.
TV is the little brother constantly looking for attention from the movies but keeps getting ignored and Netflix is the mysterious brother who left and is doing his own thing.

I wish they would bring it all together. In some small way. An Inhuman here a Spiderman cameo there.

What books are they cutting off exactly? We just got a series about the Worst X-man ever* and there's like 6 mutant related ongoings. Seems like they are doing about as good a job killing the X-Men than they are making Carol Danvers an interesting character.
*not Gambit related

Hopefully this means a reboot for X-men. I still read Extraordinary and Old Man Logan but I've been tired of the 500 X-men comics a month thing for a long while. Also It's just not been the same without Professor X. I actually enjoyed seeing him back during Secret Wars.
