How Marvel Should Bring The X-Men Into The MCU

7. No More Bryan Singer Or Simon Kinberg

With the X-Men series being rebooted, Disney would also do well to ensure that the filmmakers behind the Fox movies, Bryan Singer and Simon Kinberg, are nowhere near it.

For starters, the persistent accusations levelled against Singer over the years make him far too radioactive for Disney's family-friendly brand, and Kinberg's mediocre script for X-Men: Apocalypse seems to suggest he's run out of intriguing ideas for the franchise.

Starting anew with a totally fresh set of creative voices, probably from the indie filmmaking world, feels like the perfect way to reinvigorate the X-Men, considering how blatantly the Singer-Kinberg era has run its course.

If anything can pull the X-Men out of their doldrums and freshen things up, it's a totally fresh start under the supervision of Kevin Feige.
