‘X-Men: First Class’ Sequel Titled ‘Days of Future Past’?
http://screenrant.com/x-men-first-cl...t-kofi-177114/

There is word circulating that 20th Century Fox has reached out to the MPAA to secure a title for the studio’s forthcoming sequel to X-Men: First Class - and if reported accurately, that title is going to send a tidal wave of geek freak-outs across the Interwebs. The title in question is “Days of Future Past” – which remains one of the most famous and celebrated X-Men storylines of all time.

More interestingly, however: “Days of Future Past” was also a X-Men story that dealt with time travel and multiple timelines – meaning that director Matthew Vaughn and Fox could be (finally) trying to organize the convoluted continuity of the X-Men film franchise, using a tactic similar to what J.J. Abrams did with his Star Trek reboot.

Here is the quote from AICN reporter “The Kidd,” which first kicked off this rumor:

One of my little birds Weapon X recently dropped me some information that 20th Century Fox had recently registered the title DAYS OF FUTURE PAST with the MPAA Title Registration Bureau. The Bureau exists for studios and productions companies to stake their claims on certain titles that they intend to release and distribute, so that others can stray from using a similar title.

The title “Days of Future Past” is taken from the two-issue Uncanny X-Men comic book storyline written in 1981 by legendary X-Men writer/artist team Chris Claremont and John Byrne. In the story, the X-Men are trying to stop the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants (led by Mystique) from killing an anti-mutant political figure named Senator Robert Kelly. This pivotal event creates a separate timeline in which the X-Men fail to stop the Kelly assassination, and as a result, mutants are hunted, imprisoned and exterminated by humanity. One X-Man from that future dystopia manages to travel back in time and warn the present day X-Men, who ultimately stop the assassination (though the two timelines both remain in existence).


The X-Men Battle Sentinels in 'Days of Future Past'

Given where X-Men: First Class left things, it’s easy to see how “Days of Future Past” could be reconfigured to focus on Magneto (Michael Fassbender) and his Brotherhood going after a key political figure, and the X-Men team being visited by a dimension-hopping mutant to be forewarned of what happens if they don’t stop the assassins. “Days of Future Past” also had the mutant-killing Sentinel robots, an older version of Wolverine, etc. – all of which would be awesome to see onscreen (not to mention a Terminator-style future dystopia). A “DoFP” plot could also open the door for the franchise to introduce time-hopping X-Men like Bishop or Cable to the mix.

In terms of the movies: “Days of Future Past” would give Vaughn and company a way to end all this continuity madness once and for all. If time travel and alternate timelines are successfully introduced into the X-Men movie universe, then that would be a perfect explanation for why the original X-Men trilogy (and Wolverine) have plot points that contradict First Class, while allowing all of the films to remain valid (unlike the ‘forget the past’ approach of the Spider-Man movie reboot).



“Days of Future Past” is an awesome story on its own – and I for one would welcome anything that could straighten out the movie continuity in satisfactory fashion. First Class was tormented all through development for not being a clear prequel OR reboot, but instead some weird amalgamation of both. I think a lot of X-Men fans would agree with the sentiment that it’s time to clean house. J.J. Abrams successfully cleared away decades of Star Trek continuity when he spun-off a new timeline for his 2009 reboot, which allowed him the freedom to tell his own stories using familiar characters.

Finally, introducing alternate timelines would give Fox many new options for how they approach their other upcoming X-Men films: including already-in-production sequel The Wolverine, and the already-planned X-Men 4. In fact, “First Class Continuity (FCC)” and/or “Original Trilogy Continuity (OTC)” could be terms we all start throwing around pretty soon. Comic book geekery at its best.

X-Men: Days of Future Past - if that is indeed the title – will be in theaters on July 18th, 2014.

Yeah, but that scowl. ...

Doesn't exactly exude "Most powerful being in the galaxy" does it?

Olivia Munn's crotchular region leaves a lot to be desired. It looks like she slapped on her grandmother's favorite pair of panties.

They just need to scrap everything above the neck. The costume and musculature aren't too bad. They definitely need to make him bigger, 6'6" at the very least, and maybe a little less purple, more blue.

And get rid of that neck roll. I'm having flashbacks of early 2000s Mike Alstott. Is dude a ****ing linebacker or a celestial technology-amped mutant hellbent on taking over the world?

Yeah her costume isn't flattering.

Never know though, these could be pre-CGI pics? Maybe once some lighting goes in it'll look a bit different.

Munn is the least of my worries. They could throw her in a burka and I'd still find a way to fap to her.

Evidently the suit cannot contain her crotch...

How can they look at that and say, yeah, job well done, gentlemen?

I'm hardly knitpicky with the whole it's gotta look like the comics version, but you can't go out of your way to make the 1st response when everyone sees your main villain that's supposed to be an epic character be to chuckle and laugh at his rediculousness.

Could this be some old rudimentary version of him from centuries ago, and they're keeping his present day incarnation under wraps?

It baffles me, because DoFP did a lot to get the franchise ship righted, to then turn around and blow this of all things.

I don't get why they didn't use the lip lines. It's his defining visual feature, you could have nothing but the lip lines and it'd look like Apocalypse. This design is like if they put Wolverine in a yellow spandex suit but left off the mutton chops.

Speaking of, has there been any mention of Cable?
