Actually it was the original team from the comics, Excluding Ant-Man & Wasp aside

Not to mention the mediocre direction, the visuals looked cheap and amateur, not diferent from a direct to tv movie project (heck, game of thrones looks much better despite being a tv show).
Not to mention the fact that the main threat was a complete joke, there is not sense of danger, the military could have beated the chitarui, sorry seeing this supposly earth mighty heroes fighting generic aliens isnt hype inducing to me.

Seriously get off your high horse.... 😬

and Bs the earth's military could'eve beaten the aliens, Look at what they were going to do nuke New York City.....yeah real great.

Probably to do with the fact that Wolverine and Spider-Man both became Avengers AFTER their movie rights were already sold off.

Good point. But obviously his rights were never associated with TIH.

Wolverine's an actual X-man.

Magneto is their main antagonist. Sick of seeing him, too. It causes the writers to focus too much on him and Xavier.

Focusing on Eric and Charles has been a big part of what's made the last 2 films so great. Sure beats just focusing on Wolverine.

I was also getting sick of Magneto being the main villain in the first 3 X Movies but the last 2 focused on other main villains. But yeah I would complain he's been around as a villain for too long, and maybe should go in the direction of anti-hero.

But please don't get rid of the most interesting relationship in the series, which also signifies the whole ideals of the movie "X-Men" and "Brotherhood." Plus it doesn't hurt that they're both played by brilliant actors. But no, please don't get rid of that and go back to the "Let's make it all Wolverine" days again.

A team of four or five X-Men would be the sweet spot imo. Would give everyone a chance to shine, and there's plenty of diversity in the X-Men lore.

I mean this movie had a team of 3- Xavier, Logan and Beast. Plus there was Quicksilver. Which really isn't bad at all considering the story also had to focus on Eric, Raven and jumping back to Future scenes.

So yeah, 4-5 main X-Men in the next one shouldn't be too difficult to do justice to.

Again, for the record, McKellen & Stewart > Fassbender & McAvoy.

Quit just spouting nonsense and looking extremely rattled by the superb Avengers movie.

Fassbender & McAvoy are just as good as the other two imo.

Better if you ask me.

Sincerely disagree.

The team was pretty close to the original one too. Sure, they had to add Cap, Widow and Hawkeye, and I didn't like them not having Pym or Wasp, but it's closer than it could have been, and it was better for it.

I thought the visuals were great, tbh.

To be fair, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver go back to being associated with the Avengers a long, long time. Not sure it's an accurate comparison.

Superb my ass, is just fast food cinema just like the transformers saga, nothing more nothing less.

Renner and Widow was taking out dozens of those idiots with a crappy Glock and a bunch of arrows.

The nuke thing just show how bad and idiotic the plot was, the entire US military would have not trouble moving down the entire fleet let alone the world military forces.

Sorry but Loki and the Chitauri are not taking earth, they are not the Kryptonians.

How would they take out the big snake things? IM's best armament couldn't scratch the outside of those. And remember IM was the military's prime arms dealer.

Objectively it is a huge success so stew over it handing any dc film this far its ass.

Most opinions disagree with yours which seems consumed by envy.

The discussion is MCU inferior output vs Xmen, so i dont know why you bring DC into this, they dont even have a universe to talk about.
Also movie Iron Man is not this tech magician like the comics, a couple of combat planes can easily make the same job, his suit is nothing outworldly.

Avengers is vastly superior imo and at the end of the day will be far more successful objectively.

Transdongers must be groundbreaking cinema by that logic.

That's Quan logic for you. Except for when MOS Beasts Thor and Hulk's butt at the box office, then it suddenly becomes subjective to other factors.

But your wrong about IM's weapons. He has state of the art military tech. He just makes sure his weapons don't cause Mass Destruction of countless civilians. That's where the military wouldn't have helped in Avengers.

Anyway the discussion here is X-Men Days of Future Past. We seem to be getting way off topic.

I personally hate it but objectively it is highly successful.

That is the difference between subjectivity and objectivity.

Stop dickriding the DC movies trying to make out that they're better

and the guy ignores your post....too busy complaining with Quan.

This movie was excellently made. All up to the pivotal moment wherein Mystique makes her major decision. I think the scripwriting was pretty good, too.

Agree with this article for the most part and feel his pain:

But I definitely enjoyed DOFP a lot more than he did, and disagree with him that they're still not on the right track. IMO they are, and if they can just fix Cyclops and actually make him one of the 4-5 main characters they have per movie, then I know I'll stop complaining.

The only way they'll do Cyclops justice is if they're willing to give him equal billing with Wolverine, and lessen the attraction between Jean and Logan. So, basically make it like the comics.

I don't see that happening.

DOFP was great in no small part to Vaughn's influence. Apocalypse will be missing that, so i'm a little worried about Singer being given more reign this time.

Well for one it will be a teenage Cyclops in the next one. So yeah doubt they'll put some teenager on equal footing with Wolverine. On the plus side if Scott and Jean are both teenagers, then that should definitely lessen the attraction between Logan and Jean (I would presume).

I think at this point though, just making Scott one of the 4-5 main character would be something (as long as it's done like DOFP and not X1 and X2 style). In fact really if he's Xavier's first proper student (when the school reopens), the whole movie could be from his POV. But I doubt they'll do it.

So you should be.
