does anyone think this will work as a reboot-retcon-sequel especially since they are combining the cast from the first 3 and first class.

And this needs two threads because?

Didn't see another thread

Do a Search to see if a thread already exists.

I did. There is none. But anyway what are some opinions on the movie

I heard Patrick Stewart and Ian Mckellan are going to be in it. Why? Just stick with Fassbender and let him do work.

Because Fassbender doesn't look like a 60 year old man.

He can look 60 though, with make up and what not...but with Ian and Pat back that should be cool and interesting

No. Just do a straight up sequel to First Class.

looking forward to seeing this.. can't wait for the interactions between fassbender/mckellan, stewart/mcavoy, etc..

That's what this is, except Emma won't be in it apparently despite First Class's ending.

January Jones probably turned it down lol.

Or they thought she sucked in the first film, which she did.

If they ever put her character back in, I hope they use a woman who's ass isn't so non-existent.

Y'know everyone keeps talking about how difficult it is to get DC's JLA off the ground & YET Marvel keeps re-hashing, re-booting or just dragging on the X-Men saga.

I'm honestly fed up with the Xavier/Magneto angst being the ONLY story-line, Marvel wants to dwell on.

You mean FOX right.

Oh okay FOX.
Doesn't change my view though.

So does that mean FOX could only get the rights to Magneto & no other villains?

Meh. Well, I too hope they cast someone else as Emma if they bring the character back, but it's been said that they won't. And yeah, she was lackluster in First Class.

Yeah Jones was pretty lacking in the Emma Frost dept.

Maybe she mistook the idea of the White Queen with an Ice Queen stereotype and took it from there.

Regardless I'm pretty upset with the idea of mixing the First Class universe with the old X-men one.
It's full of fail unless they go all out....which from the previous Fox films they seem unable to do.

The Fox Xmen films seem to fail on an equal level that the current Spidey films did. That is make it realistic and just pump out the product.
Marvel Studios franchises seem to delve into the core of the stories whilst still having the weakness of not supplying the epic grandeur of what these characters have shown in the comics but they seem to be leagues ahead.

Otherwise I can't really complain. I'm happy to see these films happen but the Xmen universe is my fav. I want to see films on the level of the classic animated series. And this is a good step towards it.

Seems like they're bringing actors who played characters before, back into the fold, but the continuity is all First Class, and it's as if the other movies didn't even happen.

But isn't time travel or some sort of time distortion a part of the story line?

Otherwise you're gonna get older actors trying to play younger versions of their characters...

I second that Fassbender is perfect.

Bryan Singer has been useless with his tweets.

I watched a cheesey British sci fi flick lastnight called LifeForce(1985), basically about space vampires invading Earth.

Patrick Stewart plays a small part where basically he gets possessed.
Anyway there's one scene where he's captured & drugged....& then gets bound & secured....to a wheel chair.

I'm thinking Singer saw that movie too & thought, "BINGO, Stewart would make a great Xavier!"

Maybe this will be good

You cant have a guy become a badass & damn near solo the x men then kill him off in such an anticlimatic fashion
And wtf is up with nightcrawler having one of the best action seqences in movie history and not give us more?
The only reason I. Watched the rest of the movie was because I was waiting for another scene like it

But all we get is wolverine stabbing people.. wow
Id be watching Friday the 13 if all I wanted to see some guy stab people up every other scene

From what I remember, Nightcrawler was originally going to be in The Last Stand, though with a more minor role than what he had in X2, but the actor didn't think having less of a role than before would be worth putting on all that makeup again, or something along the lines of that. I don't blame him really.

Unlikely. Singer's never pulled that off successfully before. I doubt he's going to start now with a much bigger cast than any of the previous X movies.

I can see Singer doing this, but will be very disappointed if he does.

We already have a Wolverine movie this year. And First Class was the first X Movie not to center around Wolverine, which as a result was far far better then it's predecessors.

It would be a shame to ruin the sequel by making it all about Logan again.

Well I personally think if they want a bigger boz office then they should learn from Marvel studios. The Avengers didnt become such a hit by just making it all about Iron Man, giving the other heroes a minor role, or even a cameo.

Did they make the most of IM's larger box office draw? Sure. But not at the expense of the other heroes.

Oh yes toad was all that he was completely redesigned in that film from his comic and animated versions. i for one loved it

Toad damn near solod the entire team... toad

To each their own I guess, although Toad being played by Ray Park (if I recall right) was quite a plus admittedly.

Never really got into the xmen films tbh.

The X-men films sucked.

Coming from a lifelong X-men fan.

I have no hope for Days of Future Past.

For the director sucks. He lacks "vision".

And "vision" is the most important thing a storyteller can have.

http://insidemovies.ew.com/2013/06/04/x-men-future-past-bryan-singer-nixon/

^ That's actually promising. Because it seems like Mathew Vaughn's touch is still in this film. Connecting real historic events is what he did for First Class and what he had planned for the Sequel.

Maybe a mutant started the Vietnam war.

If they want it to be as big as avengers it's not about packing in heroes left right and centre. Avengers was a success cos it had a well written, witty script and a top drawer original director who knew just the right balance between serious action, humour and cheese.

Oh yeah you can't just pack it with too many superheroes. That's the most worrying thing about this.

But it's also not going to be Avengers big by just focusing on Wolverine. (Like all the previous X-Movies minus FC).

In Avengers, Thor had such cool scenes, as did Hulk. Cap had his part in it too. Whilst IM took the lead but not at the expense of the others. Plus like you mentioned it wasn't just packed with a whole bunch of superheroes having no purpose but just to be in it.

Couple things, first, this pic is just lolzyghey:

http://img248.imageshack.us/img248/9002/001tmu.jpg

Second, the fake muscles under Beast's clothing look ridiculous. Should have just have that skinny guy eat and workout some.

Sure that's not the filming of the gay porn parody version?

interesting scenes

Am sure it'll look more interesting or believable in the movie, though we know how Beast trying to drown Magneto will go either way.

One of my favorite comic story lines.

Everything I've heard about this movie sounds like a mess.

sooooo, will this retcon the franchise? Seems like it would be a good way to start completely from scratch and erase all existence of the previous movies, and the actors who played the characters... meaning (hopefully) this is the absolute last time we see Halle Berry as Storm.

Peter Dinklage is Bolivar Trask.........eer

isn't that character supposed to be slightly taller.

Bryan Singer says Deadpool is a possibility for future X-Men movies but he's not in DOFP when responding to a fan question.

Wow someone whose NOT in this movie.

Quicksilver will be a character in the 1970's portion of the film.

I'm guessing he won't be Magneto's son then..

From the sound of things Deadpool is going to be in the X-Force movie.

I never read Days of Future Past. All I know is it has to deal with the Trask Sentinels hunting down the mutants.

So apparently, Wolverine is the one who is going to travel back in time.

Singer is going to royally **** this up.

Actually its about an incident in modern day which starts up anti-mutant hysteria

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Days_of_Future_Past


Regarding wolverine going back in time, That was Kitty Pryde's role in the story and X-Men TAS with that they used Bishop.

Right. Then they use the Sentinels to hunt them down. I watched TAS.

It's just annoying how Wolverine gets pushed into the spotlight with this franchise. Having him in a cameo during First Class was perfect.

Havok kid still looks like he needs a punch in the face...

It should be focused on Cyclops running the team since X-men 1.

but since he's been killed off


also that's another thing with this story, Its the mutant Brotherhood killing Senator Kelly

i don't know who's going to be used for the assasination now.

I think this will be mixed like the comic and xmen tas

Please tell me that guy playing bishop doesn't have fake dreads omfg this movie is going to be so dam shitty

so all that's going to take is someone's dreadlocks to make a movie shitty for you.

It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if it fits with 1 timeline or the other or both or neither. The tipping point for the x-men movies was reached a long time ago. The producers know that people will flock in droves to any old shit with a marvel badge stuck on regardless whether it makes any ****ing sense at all.

Don't really think making sense was a big issue for Singer. It was his diversion away from the source material and dull plots which made his previous superhero movies suck.

Hopefully that won't be as much of an issue this time as he's basing it on the DOFP comic book. So the story and villains are all there set up for him. All he has to do is incorporate that story into the X Movie-verse. Let's hope he can do that much.

Either way I'm sure it'll at least be more enjoyable than The Wolverine no matter how much a Singer cluster**** the movie may become, though it'll be another Logan wankfest like everything else that isn't First Class.

X1 & 2 really destroyed the source material with their demotion of Cyclops for one. Also the X1 plot was pretty dull. X2 was an entertaining film, but in that one Cyclops had basically become a cameo.

And SR really was a huge screw up. But I really hope he does make amends with this one.

It wasn't just that Superman Returns was bad but the fact that at the time Singer jumped ships from Marvel to DC which ****ed over X-Men 3 and made it a lot worse than it could've been if he had still been behind it. Then again, with his dislike of Cyclops, he might've still killed him off anyway.

It's good about old Charles being back but not all the damage X3 did has been undone still.

Compared to First Class, the first two Singer films were like average at best IMO.

That's true in terms of just being an entertaining movie for your general audience. But they really reduced Cyclops role in that movie which was annoying because he didn't even have a big enough role in the first one.

i'm surprised its taken this long to put Sentinels in a movie.

True. Was expecting them in the first or second movie. Then by the third just assumed they're never going to make a proper appearance.

Singer should'eve done an X-Force movie, Since he gives Wolverine alot of screen time.

X2 was the best of the original 3. It was generally an entertaining movie, but I don't see the point in having a Phoenix but then just having Cyclops locked up for the majority of the movie.

But I see your point. X2 + First Class are whats giving me any hope for this movie.

I don't think he will be the star of this movie (at least I hope not). I think the intention was to always just add him to help ratings, as First Class did not do as well as Wolverine Origins at the box office believe it or not.

Cyclops locked up?

Regardless of box office statistics and all that, First Class was heaps better then Origins.

It was better yeah but when it comes down to it they care more about it making money than anything else

Sad how the world works when it comes to box office statistics

"oooooh its made heaps it must be good" .

In X2 him and Xavier were captured early on, then we don't see Cyclops again until towards the end.

There is a cut scene which shows him in some kind of prison.

Of course. It was by far the best of all the X-Men movies Imo. And it's in my top 5 fav super-hero movies of all time.


There's lots of factors when it comes to box office. Fact is First Class did not have much hype to it (perhaps because there was no Wolverine), and was a reboot of sorts. But I always predicted a sequel would do very well at the box office. Because it was a fantastic movie(also perhaps because there was no Wolverine for a change), and word of mouth spreads sometimes after a movie is done at theatres. Just look at Batman Begins.

Sorry to ride your knutz but it did have Wolverine and, in fact, Wolverine had the best scene in the whole film.
