Morph's characterization in ‘X-MEN '97’:
“This is a lighter take on the character, who is nonbinary and has an interesting buddy relationship with Wolverine. The character’s past with Mister Sinister, the show’s villain, could also come into play.”

The answer is simple. Stop making bad movies. Filmmakers are given tens, if not hundreds of millions of dollars to make a movie. There’s no excuse for any of them to be bad.
Please stop writing the worst movies of the year lists. No one sets out to make a bad movie. So many people work their asses off to try and do the best job they can so let’s not celebrate when something doesn’t work.

As I remember the X-Men, they were five white teens with powers just trying to blend in to society. Professor X taught them to harness their powers for the greater good. Magneto and the Brotherhood dubbed themselves homosuperior and felt that mutants should rule over mankind.

Here's the last thing (probably not) I'll say about my "controversial" statement. The opening moment of any movie sets the tone of that movie. When The Marvels opens with the Kamala Kahn sequence in her bedroom, what demographic (gender/age range) was this meant to appeal to.
