Quicksilver in the X-Men movies

Does anybody not like this Avengers charecter taking screen time away from X-Men in X-Men movies?

What's to be mad about ? He has some of the best scenes in the movies

I found it odd to see him standing next to the iconic X-Men of Cyclops, Jean, Storm and Nightcrawler at the end.

He has some great scenes but I don't think he should be an X-Man.

Lol, now it's "Too much Quicksilver." Smh.

QS is awesome. I'd love to see a QS solo movie.

Well being the son of magneto...

Nope. I wanted more QS and I got it. He is the best part of the movies.

Better than bad Russian accent QS in Age of Ultron.

I didn't really liked his scenes in Apocalypse. But his scene in DOFP made him a fan favorite, so I totally get the decision to make him a member of the X-team.

I'm not mad. Like, at all.

One of the best characters in the franchise currently. He was originally an X-character, anyway.

He is not someome I think of when I think about charecters I want to see in X-Men movies, but his scenes are cool so it's whatever.

I actually like this rendition of Quicksilver.

He was cool in DoFP but they should of just left him with the cameo. The only reason they used him to begin with was because Fox learned that Disney was going to use him in Age of Ultron. Originally Juggernaut was supposed to bust Magneto out of prison.

I don't dislike him but I would of rather seen his screen time given to Angel, Storm, and Psylocke in X-Men: Apocalypse.

He's cool.

Very cool indeed, but isn't he faster on screen than in the comics, I mean some of that stuff he did saving all the students in a split second, was out of a Flash comic.....but overall, he is great...a very cool and powerful character.

Bumping this since Apocalypse was released on digital today. Maybe more people will of seen it and want to talk about it.

I've got no issue with it. It's also nice to see him in a state where he's still got some concerns with his father but he isn't super angsty about it. I'd like to see more of him, but they're gonna have to give him some more weaknesses in these movies. At the moment the only mutants that can beat him are telepaths and maybe telekinetics.

Lol Quicksilver has been in more X-Men media then Avengers...

Aside from the mainline comics hes almost as relevant to the franchise as Mystique.

Fox's Quicksilver is the only version of the character I like.

Quicksilver is still awesome.

Me too.

As an unpopular X-Men opinion: This Quicksilver has made him more interesting than the AoU and comic book counterparts ever would.

Maybe that is because X-Men have existed in other forms of media and until recently the Avengers did not. Before the movies started the Avengers had 0 cartoons and maybe 1 or 2 games from the SNES era. The games were not even called Avengers, they were called "Marvel Super Heroes" and also featured Wolverine and Spider-Man.

Mystique has always been a recurring villain. Quicksilver would only have cameos. I think he might of been a recurring charecter in X-Men Evolution though. Even if he was as relevant as Mystique. The popular opinion seems to be that making Mystique a main character in the movies was a misstep. I would like to see the movies star the same charecters from the comics or even the cartoons. Quicksilver is alright in a lesser role but I don't understand why X-Men fans would want to see this guy become the star of the movies.

Thats true. The only thing about Quicksilver that was interesting in comics was his relationship with his dad and i always thought comic Quicksilver was unlikable.

Technically they had 1 cartoon, and a Ironman cartoon season that was basically the Avengers as his sidekicks.

But lets be honest. 2/3 of the Cartoons focused heavily on his interactions with early versions of the X-Men teams and his connection to Magneto. Something which is present but unfleshed out within early X-Men.

Moreso then that, the idea of the "Brotherhood of Evil mutants" is so functionally basic as an enemy team for the good guys of the franchise to face that his role as a leader or lietenant of the group (or more accurately the idea that he would be this because of his relationship) is synonymous with the character.

Even some of his modern characterization is seemingly feuled by the idea that he has this relationship with Magneto that complicates and motivates his actions as a villain and hero.

The fact is hes in a very interesting place in comics as his adventures as an Avenger are virtually unknown and irrelevant when placed against his relationship with Magneto and the X-Men and what THAT means in the Marvel world.....even if it ultimately doesnt amount to much.

Rumor has it that Evan Peters will not be returning in X-Men: Dark Phoenix.

What? Lame. I was hoping for this whole team dynamic and chemistry finally explored:

@adamtrmm: It's confirmed that he's coming back.

@adamtrmm: He has been confirmed now. I don't like him tho. The made him too powerful, which makes him a distraction from the rest of the team. Hopefully they will put him with Magneto or something.

@howlingwolves: @DevilMayehm666:

Good!

The made him too powerful, which makes him a distraction from the rest of the team.

They are all pretty powerful, it will depend on the story if he'll fit in imo.

Hopefully they will put him with Magneto or something.

I hope their interaction is worth the wait!

I wouldn't mind seeing Quicksilver just being with Mags. The dynamic with Magneto is easily the most interesting thing about him.

@adamtrmm: Same. I get Bobby vibes from him that I don't get from the real Bobby in the X-movies.

Edit: And I just saw the other posts confirming him. Crap.

@howlingwolves: to be fair, the next villain will be Dark Phoenix and most likely the Shiar. I have a feeling he will meet his match in this next movie. Hopefully.

@pyrofn: It seems that the main antagonist will be the Shi'ar and the film will be based on the final stage of Dark Phoenix. So Jean probably at best fight her evil side off.

Fox's Quicksilder is way too overpowered in the film franchise. As cool as the scenes were, the X-Mansion scene in XMA was ridiculous. They should at least show some consequence to going that fast in such a short period of time. And if ever time his show of power escalates with each film, i shudder to think what they will have him do in XMDP. Maybe reverse time by making the world spin backwards??? ;p
Also, he needs to be snarkier. Like, A LOT snarkier.

@pyrofn:

You mean Berto? Well, it's not like he had any lines until now from the brief "cast to be massacred" role he had in DoFP lolz

@adamtrmm: His real name is Berto? Learn something new everyday. It was very brief, but he did quite the impression despite the few lines, which says a lot.

@pyrofn:

Quicksilver's name is Pietro/Peter (comics/movie) :)

@adamtrmm: I know I'm just playing. I suspect autocorrect came to visit.

Needless to say, the second part still stands.
