Re: Bryan Singer's X-Men: Days of Future Past
All of the telepaths in the Marvel Universe can't put that egg back together!
Love that character.
But Boo Boo? Bing Bing?
Absolutely. Being hogtied by continuity is a trap to avoid.
In fact, with Boo Boo & Bing Bing in the cast, they should throw caution to the wind and include Tintin, Rin Tin Tin, Miou Miou, and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

I'm thinking Boo Boo Stewert will be playing Sun-fire.

At least he looked more beast like.
The new one looks like a blue guy with blue hair, opposed to a beastial mutant.
For now, and it's very early
it's a change for the worse imo.
Hope he at least has some gnarly fangs

Always preferred the more humanesque versions as opposed to the feline interpretations. If legit, HUZZAH!

How does Singer keep getting work?
Don't you have to have a hit once in awhile in
Hollyweird to keep the offers coming in?

Well as far as the X-Men franchise for Fox, he has proven himself.

Re: Bryan Singer's X-Men: Days of Future Past
Has he?
Maybe Fox thinks so with the box office receipts
(and that's usually all that matters to studio heads)
but as a longtime Xmen fan myself I can't say he's been able to deliver the amount of geek satisfaction that Whedon has with the Avengers and Mr.Singer has had two at bats already.
I hope for the best but the cast is getting top heavy and the script sounds like it's departing from the Claremont/Byrne original and that usually doesn't bode well.

Re: Bryan Singer's X-Men: Days of Future Past
Singer/Fox built the Marvel Superhero Genre. He did the first iconic marvel superheroes on film and imo did them very, very well..
Aside from the lack of rainbow coloured costumes i can't find much wrong with his X-Films. X2 remains the best superhero team movie imo as it has everything on offer. There's character development moments or subpots for the bulk of the cast. Great action, some humour, firm foundation story, great villain with fully realised motivation for his villainous plot, emotional ending.

What about Avengers?
I think it rightfully deserves that title.

Re: Bryan Singer's X-Men: Days of Future Past
All i found in that was great action and humour, not much else.
X2 has much more well rounded elements on offer.
Emotion: Jeans Death, Bobby leaving his family
Character development: Nightcrawler/Storm religious relationship, Jean/Scott/Logan love triangle, Bobby/his family, Pyro's defection.
Character Motivation: Wolverine moving on from being a loner to a team member, Bobby leaving his old family to fully embrace his new family, Stryker's reasoning behind his hatred on Mutantkind
Humour: Mansion & Blackbird scenes
Action: Opening with Nightcrawler, Deathstryke fight, Magneto's escape
While Avengers was fun, it was also empty of depth. Loki never showed any reasons for wanting to take over Earth, he wasn't a big enough threat to assemble a team for, he just was written to be the bad guy for the sake of the need for a bad guy. Cap never mourned Peggy or questioned if he should work for SHIELD, Thor never went to see Jane. Colousons death felt forced just to get them working together, it spent a good portion with filler material like 'what was Loki's play' being asked over ad over and about half an hour fixing the helicarrier.
In short it didn't have a story, just a series of scenes. The foundation seemed like simple 'wouldn't it be cool to see these characters on the screen together'. For me that's not enough to be called the best of anything. The first Cap, IM and Thor are better complete films as they tell a story, the characters develop & change throughout the course of the film.
It is a fun movie to be sure, a feast for the eyes and adrenal gland but doesn't have the substance that most of other superhero movies have.
