X-Men: Days of Future Past

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

"My name is Peter Dinklage and I play Bolivar Trask," says Dinklage simply. Evan Peters says his Quicksilver is "a bit of a spaz" as well as being fast. "He talks fast, moves fast, and everyone is very slow compared to him. He's like always waiting for the guy at the ATM in front to finish." Singer says, "Quicksilver was always a part of this as we were developing it, but it took a while to find the right actor for the role."

"He's got very good genes," says Fassbender. What does Quicksilver wear? "Hideous '70s clothes." "Wow wow wow!" says McAvoy. "I look incredible in this movie."

Fassbender drops a hint of him being Pietros father

One thing i find stupid is they released images of Wolverine in his yellow, Bishop, Xavier, Magneto and Colossus were low-res and from the chest up. Why not release them in all they glory in a pose rather than stabding blank.

Sentinel was on show but not discussed at the panel.

And no mention of the future of the franchise, No Xforce, Deadpool ant any news.

Quite dissapointed in the promotion

It's the first step of 10. Give him some time.

I'm a fan, not a fanboy

The footage itself sounds good, but the promotion was small potatoes compared to all other studios bigging up the future

9 more steps until Avengers love.

Probably doesn't mean anything but the Deadpool movie listing on IMDB has changed from rumoured to 2016

The "surprise" was the panel itself as far as I know, because Fox never formally announced which three movies they were bringing to fill the 90 minute slot. I did hear people saying that Wolverine and Apes were two of them, but XMen was supposed to be a "surprise panel".

Seeing everyone up there together was just amazing. And the footage of course was awesome. Looks like

Spoiler

older Magneto and Professor X send Logan back in time to meet their younger selves in an effort to avoid a war between mutants. At least thats how I took it. We got to see the footage twice.

@Cofphoto

Spoiler

A war between mutants?, isn't it supposed to be Sentinels

I dunno, I just remember older Prof X telling Logan to go back and convince me, I was a much different person then. And older Magneto telling Logan, "you're going to need my help" then something about it's going to take all of us to stop this war.

I'm not knowledgable in the comics themselves, but my impression was that they were going to work together, and that the younger Professor X was going to take a lot of convincing. The younger Prof X looks a lot different, long hair, facial hair....compared to how he looked at the end of First Class.

Like he does here:

But maybe this poster that we got afterwards is a clue:

Then there was this:

Always love their on and off friendship

I really hate to say it, but seeing the Sentinel head on Friday in Gaslamp, and then Wolverine in his *gasp* yellow and blue has kinda, sorta got me excited about this.

 

[hunnipot85]

Wolverine in his yellow/blue?? where?

 

[Chapter 2099]

That cast picture from SDCC is awesome. Can't wait to see this on the big screen!

For those unfamilar with how Time Travel workd in the comic and how it's working in the movie check below...


In the Dystopian future the remaining Mutant rebels send Kitty pride back in time to warn the past X-Men about the dystopian future where mutantkind and mankind are under the control of the Sentinel robots.

She doesn't physically travel through time, Rachel Summers uses her powers to transfer Kitty prides future mind back into her past body.

Rachel Summers: "LET YOUR MIND BECOME ONE WITH ME. OUR MINDS ARE ONE WITH ALL"

Then the comic panel read 'Her Soul is flung across the abyss of Eternity'

In the present day (which in the movie will be 1973) kitty collapses and a panel reads...

'Suddenly reality twists inside-out, she comes face-to-face with herself, an older, sadder, wiser self -- And then her soul too, is flung over out over the abyss of Eternity'

When she wakes it's the future Kitty in her past body.

Kitty Pryde has not yet been born in the Movie-Verse in 1973 so they can't use her as the time travel subject.

They need someone who is physically in the past and available in the future portion of the movie.

There are only three candidates: Charles Xavier, Magneto & Wolverine.

Since Xavier and Magneto are a part of the unfolding events of 1973 which shape the future they can't be hijacked by their future selves as they are needed to change events.

This leaves Wolverine who not only is available in the time-period but also hasn't fully met Xavier or Magneto yet (the cameo in XFC was done so quick and fast it was fan service) and most importantly isn't an X-Man shaping the events, he is an outsider at that point, that frees him up to help change events.

_______

Right now it's muddled and unknown just how Wolverines conciousness will be sent back in time. Since Rachel Summers, a telepath, was able to do it in the comic its feasable that Charles Xavier, also a telepath can do the same in the movie.

Wolverine in his yellow/blue?? where?

I've got a theory as to how the two Xaviers meet face to face...

Two two Xaviers can't physically meet as the methoda of time travel would simply place old Xaviers mind in young Xaviers body.

My theory is Patrick Stewarts Xaviers leaves a message in Wolverine mind before he travels back, then Mcavoys Xavier reads Wolverine mind and sees the message.

The scene will play out in Wolverines mind with the young Xavier face to face with his old self

Awesome pic. Thanks Nova! xx

In the sdcc panel they said they physically meet. Dunno how.

 

[snoop101]

That looks like his brown and Orange suit, not his blue and yellow.

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

They can meet face to face but it could happen inside the mind of Logan rather than the two meeting in relaity

It fits with the time travel method more than being able to send Xavier back to meet his younger self but not doing this for Wolverine.
