What was the point in
That's weird.
having Stryker be Mystique at the end? Do they want to suggest that SHE spearheaded the Weapon X program?

To me, the final scene (pre-credits) in the Xavier Institute definitely felt that way. And it was a nice coda for the film, and for that general group of actors. I don't really want to see Stewart, McKellen, Berre, Famke, etc. again. The torch feels like it has officially been passed, and I for one would like to see the films focus on the First Class crew + Jackman for the time being. I also hope they don't do another time travel angle, and as such, hope we never see Cable in the primary X-films. Sticking him in the Deadpool movie would be fine, but I hope they keep those franchises at arms length from one another.
I really like the idea that this film was the curtain call for the original cast (minus Jackman.) A worthy sendoff.
It felt surreal to me to see the whole original team from X1 all alive and well. I wouldn't be upset if they never brought them back since it felt like closure for those characters.
Wonder where Magneto was at that point, probably in-jailed.

Leading the New Mutants, or moping around on Asteroid M probably.

Would liked to have seen Alan Cumming's Nightcrawler show up at the end as well. Other then him missing, I thought the ending was perfect.
I prefer the older cast stay retired, or make cameos here and there.
I agree with Kara, I don't want to see anymore time travel, at least not for another 14 years. They should continue on now with the younger cast, they can pretty much tell any story they want.

Or replaced completely. Except for Jackman.
Sovereign leader of Genosha?
I hope to see Genosha in it one of these days, very well could be in the sequel or the unnamed third film Jackman is signed on for.
I honestly hope Sabretooth comes back in one of these sequels. I thought Mane was horrible, mainly because he was a none talking character most of the time, and the Wolverine rivalry was barely there... and he's killed in the first film... by Cyclops 
I thought Schreiber was pretty good, but I'm sure if they do make him return it won't be with him.

Yes, a real Team-X 
I definitely want Juggernaut back... but not the one based off the Internet meme

For reals!
They just need to do a team with Wolverine, Psylocke, Jubilee and Gambit.
I sure hope Mr. Sinister is in Apocalypse.

This should've just been a Mystique vs. Magneto movie w/ Wolverine as guest. I liked watching it but I would've preferred an actual X-Men team movie.
I just want to see Jackman in the costume that was shown in the alternate ending for The Wolverine.

Broke and happy
So, what am I missing here. 
How was Trask's assassination the catalyst for mutant extinction when Congress was not even a fan of his.
Hell, he was killed while courting the communist, people we fought in Vietnam, our enemies!
If anything, he was a traitor, no?
His death would've been viewed as a good thing, no?
Mystique would've been viewed as a hero of the USA, not an enemy.

That would've been the case, had she gotten away with it, but, because she was caught, not only did she prove that mutants existed, but, also, that they were a threat. Keep in mind that Congress pretty much only knew about the Sentinel program, which he spun into a sort of precautionary measure and last resort, and not all of Trask's shady experiments on Mutants. So, with that in mind, it was basically "if they're willing to kill someone just for being a vocal critic, what else are they willing to do?"
