House/Powers of X could, if they have the nerve to present it un-modified.

House of X is a utopian and distopian take on black rights, trans rights, lgbtq rights and solidarity with the rest of us, in the face of asshole *isms, systemic oppression, and AI taking all of our jobs.

If Marvel doesn't pull any punches, they're sitting on a gold mine. The next X-Men film set could be a popoular rallying cry for a generation who are tired of watching loud rich assholes steer all public political discourse.

A few of Magneto's kills, alone, would be worth the price of the theater ticket, for the catharsis. Storm's big scene based on the reality that AI are prejudiced toward misunderstanding African American women would kick ass. Cyclops being a powerful destructive ass toward people who richly deserve it. Colosus and Wolverine reminding us how to negotiate with fascists... Emma Frost choosing mercy and also not choosing mercy. There's some great stuff, that could be movie magic.

I'm holding my Marvel Unlimited subscription close to my heart right now, because I might be a chicken shit ally a lot of the time, but at least I can vote with my wallet.

I don't think Disney will allow it, but I hold out faint hope that the meddler in chief in charge of the next few X-Men films might be (or choose to appear to be) too stupid to notice the real undertones.
