That's fun! There's also one last trailer that's coming tomorrow
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s18fghqAbRU[/media] New trailer and I have questions about it (hopefully some can answer) [sp] Why has Beast reverted? Why can Xavier walk?[/sp] Edit Have a similar yet better one [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsjtg7m1MMM[/media]
[sp]xavier regained his ability to walk multiple times in the comics.[/sp]
I thought by this time Wolverine has his metal shit in his body. (talking about past part of the movie)
[QUOTE=HoliestCow;44558952]I thought by this time Wolverine has his metal shit in his body. (talking about past part of the movie)[/QUOTE] not for a couple more years. days of future past looks like it's set late 60s, early 70s. weapon x isn't until 74.
'Least that last trailer was called 'Official Alternate Final Trailer' Which means it won't hit the almighty hilarious heights of The Amazing Spider-Man 2's marketing campaign.
[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;44558965]not for a couple more years. days of future past looks like it's set late 60s, early 70s. weapon x isn't until 74.[/QUOTE] Well, if we're going by Origins there, it was actually 79, since Wolverine caused the three mile-island incident. I think. [editline]16th April 2014[/editline] Either '79 or '81. [editline]16th April 2014[/editline] I prefer to ignore that movie though and say Weapon X was in the early '90's. Cause it was 15 years prior to X-Men and X2, and those were in the near future relative to 2000, and X3 is confirmed being in 2006 and takes place pretty shortly after X2, and if Origins is canon still, it fucks with that (why would scott be a pussy crybaby for a whole decade, for example)
So I guess he doesn't actually go back in time then? Possesses his younger self or something like that when going back
[QUOTE=thrawn2787;44565557]So I guess he doesn't actually go back in time then? Possesses his younger self or something like that when going back[/QUOTE] Well yeah. If you wanna know how the story pretty much is gonna play out, look up the comic :v:

[B]That's going to have some impact on Apocalypse[/B].[/QUOTE] Not necessarily.. he's being sued, not arrested. and tbh it smells like bullshit anyway. also on a side note, i'm curious as to how it could be statutory rape if the kid was 17. 17 is the legal age of consent in every state that i'm aware of, and in some states it's 16, even. Anyway... i'm incredibly excited about this film but after seeing all these trailers, the Beast thing is really bugging me.

The civil lawsuit was filed in Hawaii where the age of consent is currently 16 though it was 14 at the time the act supposedly occurred. A separate incident also apparently occurred in California where the age of consent is 18 which would make the act statutory rape. Depending on what state they had sex in it could either be consensual sex or statutory rape. However the act was supposedly actual rape, rather than just statutory rape, so regardless of the ages and various laws involved it would still be illegal.
I never really kept up with X-Men, but does the fact that Trask is an anagram of Stark mean anything? or am I just being stupid?
[QUOTE=LuckyLuke;44572821]I never really kept up with X-Men, but does the fact that Trask is an anagram of Stark mean anything? or am I just being stupid?[/QUOTE] Just a coincidence.
[QUOTE=LuckyLuke;44572821]I never really kept up with X-Men, but does the fact that Trask is an anagram of Stark mean anything? or am I just being stupid?[/QUOTE] yes, they're the same person.

spoiler alert: trask is actually stark's father
[quote]The Amazing Spider-Man 2 will feature a post-credits sequence from X-Men: Days of Future Past in some markets. The scene will see Jennifer Lawrence reprising her role of Mystique, and will also feature Toad (Evan Jonigkeit) and Havok (Lucas Till).[/quote] uhm
So why is Toad in the 70's and an adult and somehow older than he was in X-Men.
[QUOTE=jp_rsardeto;44575276]uhm[/QUOTE] it's just a promotion for DOFP, no crossover

[sp]Xavier has implants, also he's been able to walk in comics through all sorts of bullshit they always revert. (He's also been dead four times)[/sp] [sp]Beast has been giving himself gene therapy, which will likely figure into Age of Apocalypse[/sp]
Bump The first round of reviews/comments from critics who saw early screenings are overwhelming positive calling it the X-men version of the Avengers. Apparently quicksilver is great when the trailer made us think he was gonna be annoying.

quicksilvers scene is mentioned a few times there as being cool, im imagining the world will be slowed around him as he does cool shit in normal motion ala fry when he drinks 300 coffees
