I'm unsure about this.

In my timeline, 2 years have passed by.

I don't agree with the notion the movie is set 10 years after The Last Stand, why that? It seems to me too much. :wow:

If there's some evidence, we should find it in Yashida's story and age.

What do you think about it?

Not sure where you are getting this from.

According to the Empire timeline, The Last Stand was around 2007, The Wolverine was around 2013, the future part of Days of Future Past is around 2023.

That means SIX YEARS between The Last Stand and The Wolverine.

According to Jackman, it was few years from The Last Stand.

Empire timeline is fan fiction.

Wrong.

Your stuff is fan fiction; the Empire Magazine timeline was provided to them by individuals directly associated with the franchise.

They (Empire) called it the OFFICIAL TIMELINE because that's exactly what it is.

Yukio says she's been looking for Wolverine for 'over a year'. That would mean it was more than a year since he disappeared from the mansion. Why would he just leave when he was content at the end of X3?

25 Moments shows what happened after X3. Tensions rose and the mansion's school closed in 2010. The X-Men must have disbanded. Wolverine must have left around that time and went living in the wilderness.

25 Moments tells us that in 2011 Yashida Corp was researching mutation (and this must be because Yashida was dying and wanted Wolverine's power and they were probably developing those suppressor bugs that could hold back cancer - also a mutation - but also suppress Wolverine's powers).

So, sometime after 2011, the search for Wolverine must have began. 'Over a year' brings us to 2013, the year that The Wolverine took place in.

It adds up. Your theories don't.
 
I actually like that the 25 Moments sets up why Wolverine would leave. Much better set up than him just getting depressed, especially with the ending of X3.

Though, I think The Wolverine takes place more around 2011, since the end scene is 2 years later. Obviously, the new weapon Magneto and Charles were talking about was the Mark X.
 
^ There is, I believe, a 2-year time lapse between the actual end of The Wolverine and the mid-credits scene in which Xavier reveals himself to Wolverin, which would place the events of that scene in 2015.

I'm aware of that. I'm saying that the ending scene happened because Trask was going to reveal the Mark X, in 2013.
 
I just looked at the Official Timeline, and it lists the mid-credits scene from TW as occurring in 2013, which is the same year that the rest of that film's events are listed as occurring in.
 
So, a bit of a mistake. Someone forgot about the 2 years later part.

It's not a major effort to fit the official timeline with the 25 Moments. Push X-2 and Last Stand back a year (it does make sense for X1 and X2 to be within a year of each other). Move the bulk of The Wolverine back to 2011.

PERFECT. My apologies. I totally forgot about those hints from 25Moments. 25Moments is legit, the Empire timeline is wrong (and unofficial)... :word:

So thank you, I will modify my timeline.

Hugh Jackman was wrong in the interview.
 
According to the Trask Industries website timeline (click on 'Genetics' on the left and then scroll down the white area on the right) Trask Industries announces Sentinel Mark X program in 2020.

I can accept that The Wolverine took place in 2013, the end credits was 2015, they were then developing a new Sentinel, and it was unveiled in 2020 (it could have been a few years earlier I guess). By 2023, the world had gone to hell and the X-Men needed to travel back in time.
 
Trask Industries also says 2013 was the year that Trask Laboratories unveils groundbreaking ability to create a hybrid gene with mutant DNA, that could be the terrible thing that was happening in the end credits of The Wolverine. If so, then The Wolverine's main story is in 2011. Wolverine left the mansion sometime before it closed in 2010 (maybe he left in 2009??), Yukio searched for him for over a year and the film happens in 2011.

That's pretty much fair. I already fixed my timeline.
