I know this is about as close to a Monopoly we’ll see on Disney’s behalf, but to quote the Mad Titan...”this does put a smile on my face.”

I know I'm in the minority here, but I've actually been enjoying the newer Fox X-Films and shows (especially The Gifted), and would be perfectly fine with keeping the X-Universe separate from the MCU. It really helps sell the "world that hates and fears them" aspect when mutants are the only ones with powers.

Also, introducing mutants this late in the game feels awkward, at least to me, even if it could give the MCU an extra lease on life post-Phase Three.

I would love to see the FF though. I still feel like the FF would be best as a period series, set during the ambiguous years between the first Cap film and the first Iron Man movie. I know Captain Marvel is set in the 90s, and the scenes with Hank and Jan in Ant Man took place in 1987, but the FF would be a great 1960s series. Hell, gives us more chances to see early SHIELD, and some more appearances from Peggy Carter and Howard Stark.
