Days of Future Past Days of Future Past First Class Sequel Characters

[Primal Slayer]

Praying this works out the way we think it will. Though if they want to have Wolverine in this, just let it be a cameo. I know he is a big part of the comic storyline but some people forget that Cyclops was a big part of the Phoenix storyline and we all saw that turned out

 

[def28]

Wolverine Vs Sentinels would be one of the coolest things in the movie. I would be shocked if they did this storyline and ditched Logan. Ive been waiting to see him **** sentinels up since X1. The audience is gonna be all about that.

If they had Wolverine Dead or MIA while the other original X men are shown they better have a good reason why, other then some people are sick of him being lead. Id even pay alot of money to see how they would kill that character on screen in an alt future, otherwiseI see no way of the film benefiting from leaving him out with zero explanation. He has to be addressed in some point. Hes too big a role in this series.

 

[DeanJ2009]

an opening scene set in the dystopian future of original trilogy world would be amazing. that's also how they can shoe horn their wolverine in.

personally i'd send Bishop & Iceman back in time to the First Class world in a one way/one off trip.

the tease of the world would hopefully work like the flash-forwards in the original terminator film.

 

[Duran Man]

Although I'd prefer it that a DOFP storyline be used for another movie (let's face it, the team roster at the moment kind of sucks), it could still work as a sequel to first class if done well. Maybe have Cyclops come from the future (after being sent to an alternate timeline by Jean/Phoenix) to warn the team about the alternate future and help them stop Magneto and his Brotherhood's assassination of JFK (not the one in Dallas, but one that almost occurred before it).

 

[BMM]

I'm still curious to see if they'll physically send someone back from the future, especially since that isn't what happens in the books.

 

[JP]

I don't want that. I'd rather Xavier communicate though time, like in Wolverine and the X-Men.

 

[marvelrobbins]

Someone Is likely to physically transfer through time.It'll be like the 1990's animated show but Instead of Bishop it will be character the audence Is familar with from earlier
trilogy.And I suspect the characters In future sequenze will be character alive at end of Last stand.With Xavier audence knows from post credits scene his mind woke up In body
with from commantary we know was his brain dead twin Brother(their version of clone body from comics) they will want to have some Interaction between eras of X-men.
As for using the wolverine and the X-Men communication that would be kinda hard to use In Live action and the only Interaction you could have Is between Patrick Stewert
and James Mcavoy.I also expect the trailers to mislead GA Into thinking the earlier film returnees are In it more than they actully are.

 

[JP]

If the concept is that something happens in the First Class time line to alter the future, then the events of X3 really don't matter or need to be followed. . .

 

[marvelrobbins]

The earlier films still happened(at least the ones they want to Include) something happens between end of first class and whenever first X-men took place that leads
to unleashing the sentinles.I also don't expect Angel or Beast(In part to avoid the why beast looks different Issue) In future sequenze.Part of reason I don't think they will have telephatic contact between both Xavier's Is I think the future will be confined to a 15 to 20 Minute prologue.It's fairly obvious this Is combination of Bryan Singer's X4 Ideas
with first Class sequel.Xavier,Magneto,wolverine,Storm and some combination of Rogue or Kitty and Iceman or Colossus are likely to the returning characters In future prologue.
Preventing what originally caused the sentinles to be unleashed being prevented has
2 added benefets.

1:In third film they can Introduce teenage cyclops and Jean without having to even address teenage cyclops as seen In Wolverine and young jean at begining of Last Stand.
2:It opens the door for Singer to direct a film based on his x5 Ideas after this trilogy without having his hands tied by what was done In The Last Stand.

I expect just like end of Days of future past original storyline In Comics at end of film you won't know If the future was prevented.

Yes, the films happened, but DOFP creates an ALTERNATE future. Whatever happened to characters in the first 3 movies becomes moot.

 

[marvelrobbins]

But the event which will set In motion the sentinles happens before events of first trilogy.Characters we know from earlier films are trying to prevent that event by time travel.The original DOFP story before the followups which made It very complacted was simple.As assination happens by new Brotherhood which will lead to unleashing of
the sentinles.The suriving X-men+crippled Magneto+Franklin Ricahrds(who defently won't be In film version) Exchange Kitty Pryde's mind with younger self(It'll be different In film
version) and since the first Class events take place before trilogy those films play off of the original version of whatever the future X-Men are trying to avoid.Now at end of film
those films become kind of moot.Then future films In series have more laitude In what they do.Like In Star Trek Neo coming Into past and destroying the Kelvin had major Impact on Timeline(but everything In Trek History prior to that Is still valid) preventing the event which will set In motion the rise of the sentinles will have Impact on future.X-Men Days of future Past should be viewed after the previous X-Men trilogy and future sequels should be viewed after that.Star Trek(2009) should be viewed after Star Trek Deep SPace Nine and Star Trek Nemesis.

Very unlikely In future sequenze they will make any reference to The Last Stand especilly since neither Singer or Vaughn have any great love for that film.

 

[JP]

The event that sets in motion the alternate future happens DURING the First Class trilogy... hence why they have to try and prevent it.

 

[marvelrobbins]

Time travel can be tricky to do.I see 2 possable ways It can work

1:The original version of event Is part of history leading up to earlier trilogy.The sentinles arise after trilogy.
2:The future sequeze Is alternate future

However If 2 Is version used that creates problems.Eather the ending of film allows
earlier trilogy to proceed or contunity will become a even bigger mess than it already Is.

History needs to have connection between first Class and earlier films untill time travel
happens.After that they opotion to make deveration In history.

I think that the time gap between the post-Last Stand and the FC is just too large. Something happens in the past, then 30-40 years later it leads to the Sentinels and camps? Why wouldn't this event set the humans against the mutants much earlier?

And the alternate timeline still doesn't fix the continuity errors between FC and the original films, because the two timelines would still have the shared past of what happened in First Class. So there's still a discrepancy between First Class!Charles and walking!Charles in X3, or Charles meeting Erik at 17 in the original trilogy and late 20s in First Class, or Charles acting like he's got no idea about Erik's hemet in X1. Star Trek made it work because they set up the diverging timeline in the very first scene of the first film. Had they done that film without any kind of alternate timeline idea to explain away the discrepancies, just as a kind of a loose prequel the way First Class was, using that explanation in the sequel would have been too late.

I think that the least complicated way is just to make the whole DoFP storyline about the FC characters, without dragging the original cast or films in at all. So in this alternate timeline the camps/Sentinels/whatever happen some years after the event but way before the time of the original films.

That's the big issue.

The x-men from 2014/or later wouldnt try to change a 60's event that really didnt affect the world of the 90's or 00's, seen in X1-X3.

I think the script Simon K. and Vaughn are working on will be really different from most of the ideas posted in this board.

The will use some concepts from the source material and maybe some characters from original trilogy, but I dont think they will set the future post X3 events. That wouldnt make sense.

Lets see what they do, I hope they deliver a smart script with inspiration on the comics more some original stuff.

 

[merbass]

Whoever they decided to put in the sequel will be someone the general public wants. I suspected it would be Wolverine.

What I wonder is how they would use this story line and add it to X-men First Class sequel. I hope they won't make a mistake like how they squeeze Phoenix and cure story lines in X3.

 

[Angamb]

I'll say it again, this storyline doesnt feel right for the direct sequel to First Class.

The FC cast needs another movie just for them only.

I hope if Wolverine gets used, he doesnt have more than 10 minutes of screentime.

 

[marvelrobbins]

They are doing days of future Past since filmmakers have wanted to do this story,to combine x4 Ideas with first class sequel and to create a event film.

Remember unlike the comics there Isn't history of the sentinles In films.It would make sense for It to take years for them to be devolped,built,and unleashed.

I will bet Wolverine will defently be In film.It Is question of how large his role could be.
He could be the time traveler.He could only be seen In opening 15-20 future prologue.

 

[Angamb]

I wouldnt be mad with 5 min of screentime in two short scenes or something

honestly, I would be more than happy if this is the first xmen movie where he finally doesnt appear.

Its about time if u ask me

 

[Chewy]

Am I the only one that expects Halle Berry Storm in a mohawk to be one of the major future characters?

 

[marvelrobbins]

I expect Storm In future sequenze.Rather If they will have her In mohawk now that remains to be seen.

If wolverine Isn't the time traveler I expect him to burst characters out of Internment camp and battle the sentinles to allow time for time travler to go.

 

[JP]

Am I the only one that expects Halle Berry Storm in a mohawk to be one of the major future characters?

I fully expect this as well.

And Vaughn has already shown that he can and will do comic accurate costumes (Banshee, Magneto, the yellow and blue suits).

 

[GuestStar2004]

But after the Wolverine film is out will they really bring the character back for this film? i mean if wolverine is out next year (2013) and X first class sequel in (2014)?

Maybe wolverine will have a cameo but id be suprised if they brought him back for another film so soon

 

[Angamb]

Id like to see Storm with a bigger role than Wolverine, or even Storm instead of him.

Storm, Collosus, and some characters inspired in Wolverine & the x-men show would be nice, like Bishop, Domino and a few others.

 

[marvelrobbins]

I fully expect this as well.

And Vaughn has already shown that he can and will do comic accurate costumes (Banshee, Magneto, the yellow and blue suits).

If they want to do the mohawk Storm Vaughn can make It work.Although the mohawk Storm didn't come out of days of future Past.She changed her hair to that after encounting Yuriko In Japan and laregly stayed with the style untill being balded after time In Genoshia during the X-Tinctinion Agenda crossover after being reduced to childhood by Nanny and the Orphan maker.

With regard to wolverine don't people remember Thor and Captain america were both In 2011 and they returned the following year In The Avengers.And Thor will be back onscreen next year In Thor:The dark World.Iron man 3 Is coming out almost a year after The Avengers opens.And again Wolverine's appearance may be limited to opening 15 to 20 Minute future prologue.
