Poor Duke. I'll never look at him the same after that Predator Parody, "Hot dogs in buns!" :lol
 
Probable altered timeline system

Watching XFC and in that Emma Frost a number of times lets people see what they want to see, she puts images in peoples minds (sleeping with the Russian guy while the real Frost watched on).

Including what Singer says about Xaviers Death, it would be easy to have him being in the body of the coma patient but projecting the image of his old self to his X-Men.

just finished XFC, LOVE that movie, quite sad that Banshee isn't returning and Havoks role will most likely be small

It's pretty straight forward if you've been following the franchise.

XFC is clearly set in the 60's
Origins is said to be set in the 70's
The rest flow one after the other
The Wolverine clearly is set after X3

If you haven't been following it it'll be a fairly standar time-traver fare with future and past selves
 
The fact that this movie even needs a visual timeline to explain its plot says alot.

I hope they give out timeline cards to the audience. :lol

I think that's gonna kill it with the non-fanboy audience. I expect this film will instill a Watchmen level of apathy in the movie going public at large.
 
Looks sort of meh to me........I think it's going to be overloaded with too many subplots and characters.......

but I could be wrong!
 
I had a different opinion until Magneto's kids were shoehorned into it to spite Marvel Studios. :( :lol

You got that right......a film to thumb it's nose at to Marvel Studios:yess::rotfl
Fox must cry every time a Marvel /Disney film gets released...how frustrated they must be...
 
I don't think things need to be overly complicated here. Bad stuff happens in the future, Wolvie goes back into the past to stop it, and an alternate timeline results from which future films will presumably be based. The audience can certainly understand that. One thing I'm curious about is the history of the Sentinels, though. They didn't exist in the previous X-films, yet they are now created in the '70s by Trask for the explicit purpose of killing mutants. Seems like a pretty big thing to ignore through all the other films (apart from the stupid opening to X3, which as far as I recall didn't reference them as actually existing).

So maybe another way of going about it is--the future we see in the trailer IS the alternate timeline, and has nothing to do with the films we saw previously. Then, the goal is to alter things so that the sequence of events we saw in the previous films actually come to pass. But that would seem kind of anti-climactic.
 
Good point, Kara.

Footage looks okay. I personally am a little disappointed the Mutants won't be wearing the jumpsuits from the comics with the branded "M" on them. I thought that whole concentration camp idea in the future for mutants was very chilling in the comic. It would have been a great way to go in the movie. Instead we get those Mad Max hobbled-together body armor suits. Eh. I'll still give the movie the benefit of the doubt. I just think it was a wasted opportunity.
