Days of Future Past Connects All Previous X-Men Films

Mr. Singer there is up to a darn difficult job. You have contradicting timelines all over the place. For example, Havoc and Cyclops being brothers can't happen, though they could change that into Havoc being Cyclops' father. Of course, this follows the lines of Wolverine and Sabretooth being brothers. It never sits well when long established family lines are altered "just because". Ages of all the characters are all over the place and the years simply don't add up. I'm having trouble imagining the Future Past make-over, since none of the X files so far depict something that would devolve into something like that future.
Captcha: which one does not belong. Easy, Origins. X3, as bad as it is as a movie, is more or less in line with continuity.

Yeah, that was pretty cool.Lunar Templar said:

Aw, hell no! *WOLVERINE SMASH!*
Though aside from the Deadpool thing, I enjoyed Wolverine. :I
My question: Will they explain why Professor X seemed to be briefly uncrippled in Origins when he was then later crippled as a young man in First Class?
yeah :/ Deadpool sucked, they added a giant robot battle for no reason(but it was still awesome), and changed a TON of other things from the movie why didn't they fix that as well :/Binnsyboy said:
To be fair, the Sentinel robots are part of X-Men lore. So it worked, loosely.Lunar Templar said:
True, but it was one of those things that wasn't mentioned at all in the movie, course, 'suddenly, robots', made the game better, and it was already pretty kick ass.Binnsyboy said:
Never could get the special kills to work on any enemy's but the one's with the shotguns though :/

I could swear they said that game was already partially developed as stand alone game before they decided to make it a movie tie in. That would explain the Days of Future past like ending and the presence of giant robots and rock monsters.
Kind of a weird hybrid of the movies plot and what they'd already put together.
That, or they forgot to read the script until late in development, ether way, it turned out really well, I mean I only played after X-play gave it a good review, then i had to rewind and watch again cause it was hard to digest, a movie tie in game? good? heresyCette said:
Well, if anyone can pull it off, Singer can...
...but good God, man. If the fans are willing to pull a Highlander and say, "okay, that other stuff never happened", you don't go trying to write Zeist back in. That kind of forgiveness doesn't happen frequently.

Thank you was trying to remember where he walked.Binnsyboy said:
Well 2 things can be used.
Astral projection or telepathic illusion.
Both could make people see him walking around(that is what my mind made of it to try and keep it in the continuity).
As for the whole of X3. I still firmly believe that it is a dreamworld/dreamstate of Jean grey who is still unconscious but alive in that large body of water.
Poor scripting/plot issues are not uncanny, if they were the first 3 films would be perfect.Foolproof said:
I fucking called it. I knew that a movie involving time-travel would connect all the movies together, even the shittier ones. I'm just wondering what time-travel rules they'll go by. My money is on "Back to the Future rules."
X-Men movie thread? Time for me to foam at the mouth obsess over Michael Fassbender again. Oh, wait, I actually have an opinion on this besides "I want young Magneto's dick" for once. Oh dear.
Though I didn't loathe Wolverine Origins, I did hate X3. I was kind of hoping we could forget about both of those, really. First Class was just such a breath of fresh air, only trumped by the Avengers in quality of superhero movies. I'm hoping they can tie it up in a nice pretty bow, otherwise the plots may get a little too confusing. I have the comics to confuse me enough, I go to the movie timelines for a clear, neat timeline without all the crazy AU stuff.
Also a little disappointed in Ellen Page coming back as Shadowcat. I like Ellen Page, but she just didn't quite seem the part to me. Maybe with a better story she'll impress me more. Also, Colossus. Kinda really like Daniel Cudmore, especially after Forward Unto Dawn. I'm really interested to see who they bring back in the end.
Though, as long as I have my Fassy, I'm happy. I've watched some pretty shit movies to see that man act. Jonah Hex, anyone?
