‘X-Men: First Class’ Sequel Titled ‘Days of Future Past’?

Spoiler!

i was actually worried they were about to kill wolverine off there.

What was the after the credits about? I have no idea who that was

Spoiler!

I like to think he never went through the Weapon X program so he doesn't have the Adamantium.

That would make the most sense considering his seemingly positive and friendly demeanor in the new timeline. History teacher? Makes sense though.

Since we know Wolverine ends up in Mystique's hands, I wouldn't be surprised to see that Magneto gets a hold of him and implants the adamantium. Who knows, maybe Magneto can do it with less pain/trauma and Wolverine wants it back?

I think I'd actually enjoy some 1970's stories.

Believe me, that is what I want. I only want to see the First Class group from this point.

Maybe Apocalypse gives him the adamantium when he becomes a horseman. If he becomes a horseman..

Movie was awesome. Wasn't as good as Cap 2. That's not a knock on XMen. Cap 2 was just that good.

This.

Also, the end credits scene has me pumped for X-Men: Apocalypse.

Cannot ****ing wait!

I actually liked this better than Cap 2. Cap 2 was well-constructed but ultimately felt hollow. I think XMen had a little more dramatic meat on its bones, even if it was ultimately one big retcon.

Great movie!

As far as 3D goes, either this was better than the 3D in Godzilla (by a wide margin), or the UA IMAX 3D experience really sucks compared to the Regal RXP 3D.

Just saw this.

Spoiler!

I love that it basically gave Bret Rattner a giant middle finger and completely undid the abortion that was X-3.

A few things I wanted to see, I didn't really get and I have some minor nitpicks with the thing overall.

I wanted to see Wolverine tearing ass through some Sentinels ala his famous quote "Hey Tin-Man. Im about to send you back to OZ......in pieces." Didn't get that because of the shitty bone claws business because the time period of the story was before Weapon X. Wolverine basically has one scene of badassery in this one against a few greaseballs and that was the extent of it.

I wanted to see some Sentinels getting wrecked by X-Men, but all you really see is them getting barely slowed down, and the faces of some pretty cool X-Men just getting flat out raped. Its kinda cool, like those old What-If stories, but it was a bit of a bummer just seeing them all go out pretty unceremoniously without them really getting any cool moments of tearing some shit up first.

Sentinels looked a bit too similar to the Destroyer Armor from the first Thor for me, all the way down to where the head opens up to fire the death beam.


Should have been Rogue's DNA that was used to "steal" and adapt to any mutant power. Taking Mystique's DNA should have just made them able to look like whatever they wanted.


Hank being able to "hulk out" I didn't really like at all. Moreover, if Hank could use the serum and still "beast mode", why could Charles not use the serum to walk and call up his psychic powers whenever he pleased like Hank could? Charles is a far more powerful mutant than Hank.


As said, nitpicky. But still a very well told story overall, and the fact that it corrects all the BS from the previous films is an awesome bonus. The possible stories now are limitless, including a Dark Phoenix film done correctly.

Loved the ending where everything at the mansion is as it should be, with cameos from Scott, Jean, and Rogue, and with Charles taking a peek into Logan's head to figure out what his problem was and realizing what he'd just been through.

Agree with most of this, but wanted to point out...

Spoiler!

...in regards to the serum usage by Beast and Prof X, in the very beginning they said X was basically overdosing to block out the voices. We then see the effect when Hank does the same thing. He overdoses, and the Sentinel leaves him alone since he is now human.

In regards to the after credits...

Spoiler!

I love that they are finally showing Apocalypse. It's going to be amazing. I think that's a big reason they brought back the Phoenix was for the battle in the next movie. It's going to be a great way to end the X-men movies.

Spoiler!

Im hoping we get the comic book battle between Magneto and Apocalypse where Mags magnetically rips his ass in half and says something like "For years you've gone on and on about how only the strong survive, so tell me again, just how strong you are." and walks off like a ****ing boss.

I thought this film was good if you're a fan and liked "First Class". But it was a bit talky and light on action, and wasted most of the actors as it was mostly Jackman, Lawrence, Fassbender, and the guy who played young Xavier. The 3D added nothing. I'm also not sure how old Xavier is here since last we saw in "Last Stand" Jean Gray blew him up and the at the end of "Wolverine" he was in the airport; did I miss an explanation somewhere?
