Days of Future Past Days of Future Past SPOILERS! (You have been warned!) - Part 3

[Loki882]

God those future Sentinels were brutal! I mean damn those deaths were hardcore!

 

[Figs]

God those future Sentinels were brutal! I mean damn those deaths were hardcore!

The one death that had my wife and I saying "holy ****!" was when that Sentinel was pulling Warpath's face into it's energy beam. Yeah, that had to hurt.

 

[Loki882]

Iceman being literally melted and Colossus being torn limb from limb were the ones that made me squirm. Blink being impaled by three of them works because Fan's scream and face really sold it.

 

[Havok83]

When I saw Bobby melted and then smashed, I was hoping he had the same powers as in the books with being able to recreate his body from nearby water

 

[SkyIsBlue]

Man, I really cannot decide if those death scenes were good or bad.

They were good in a sense that they raised the bar higher for this franchise. I don't think we've seen anything like it before in previous Xmen movies. People usually died when they were disintegrated and stabbed on screen but damn son, DOFP introduced a new way of looking mutants with impaling, mutilating, burning, and beheading them on screen! It is hard to believe this was only a PG13 movie!

Bad thing though is that it was just too painful and sad to see our beloved X-men to be taken down like that!

 

[Blackout]

The Sentinel hand blades were quite huge. I'd imagine having three of them in your body would almost tear the body in 2 too. Ouch Blink

 

[MarvelU]

Yeah the amount of burning and impaling in the movie shocked me. I think 3 or more Sentinels stabbed Blink. The swearing, nudity, and intense killing scenes were probably pushing that pg 13 rating. But I guess mutant violence isn't so bad right? lol

Here's Brendan Pedder, the actor who portrays young Apocalypse in the post-credits scene:

 

[Loki882]

It think that it's more the lack of actually blood and gore that kept it at a PG-13 rating. For example, Blink gets impaled, but we don't actually see her blood spraying all over the place.

Yep, and Storm's intestines weren't hanging out too :P

 

[darkangel]

No, this is not Kill Bill, this is X-Men

 

[The_Shadow]

Iceman's first death made my eyes pop wide open.

Colussus' death and just how still his upper half was, just left me speechless (speechless in watching a movie terms)

Totally thought it was a girl.

 

[Loki882]

The ancient Egyptians tended to adopt a somewhat androgynous appearance. At least the elites did.

 

[pr0xyt0xin]

You know what I found kinda interesting?

Both times I saw the film the idea came to my head that the 2023 scenes were the X-Men's real Last Stand.

It was kind of yet another clever "F You" to Ratner's film.

 

[Tehmeh]

Yup, felt like Singer's X3, only without Phoenix storyline.

 

[The Ironstar]

.... Not even Colossus?

It was a cool kill,but unlike the comic,Colossus became a berserker when he saw Storm died.

We already talked about that on here. Den of Geek doesn't deserve its 'geek' credentials.

Basically, Kitty's power is 'quantum tunnelling' - particles passing through a solid barrier.

Bottom line, without too much physics, is that those particles can bounce around and go faster than light, leading to time travel.

She either discovered this somehow, or her abilities evolved to include this as an instinctive ability.

Weird (So I'm guessing the Vision will have this power someday )

 

[TWayneP]

Singer looks good in that pic. Looks like he's lost some weight.

 

[CyclopsWasRight]

So I'm not gonna let this bug me but it occurred to me that "our" Logan shouldn't really exist in the future.

Basically the mission was a success and therefore Kitty never had to send Logan back in time and since she didn't have to send him back he didn't have to return to the future and see a Jean and Scott alive again.

In BTTF Doc Brown still invented the time machine and Marty accidentally traveled back but in DOFP Kitty never had to send him back so he didn't have to "wake up"

Technically shouldn't "our" Logan have ceased to exist once the mission was complete and the future Logan would simply have been the future of the 70s Logan?

I suppose Logan Prime could've existed outside of time

 

[Tehmeh]

"Future Logan" WAS the "old" 70s Logan. Only with his DOFP mind. He has to remember the things (that never necessarily happened after the mission was accomplished) because he was the catalyst.

Do I make sense? Probably not, hungover.

 

[CyclopsWasRight]

What if for example Kitty sent back someone who had his mother and father killed before he was born. He wouldn't have a body to return to in the future and he would never have gone back in time in the first place since he was never born.

Maybe Wolverine/Kitty thing is a paradox

 

[Tehmeh]

Perhaps that person's consciousness would run into a "wall". I think of it like this: Kitty doesn't just send someone roaming back in time, he sends someone back through his own personal timeline which is a straight, not infinite line. But she still needs to lock that person's mind down.

Do you guys really think that the Magneto that we saw in 2023 was, somewhat, reformed? Especially when compared to his younger version from the past? I mean I keep wondering if the Old Magneto would actually agree or disagree with what his younger version was doing in the past if they had a chance to meet like Charles did with his younger self or whether he would encourage it like he has in the past?

Yes. I believe that in 2023, Magneto got his redemption moment. Darth Vader-moment. Everything was lost, and he regretted fighting all his life.

And that was damn beautiful.
