Sequels Why not do both? X4/First Class... Combine The Franchises!

[marvelrobbins]

You may be right about Ellen Page.I have little doudt If they want to use Rogue and Anna Paquin can fit It between her true Blood schedule she would agree to do it.

Without question I think Hugh Jackman and Halle Berry will be In future sequeze with sentinles.Perhapes In opening of film or perhapes as expended Flahsback/Flashforward.
The question remains will they want to try to make Wolverine or Storm the time traveler.

I would prefer another character is the time traveller. Logan and Storm have been pretty dominant in the past. I'd love to see Rogue in the role, with Paquin returning. There's a lot to do with the character that hasn't been done.

I love Page but her character made no impression on the series overall. She was a supporting character in a weak film.

I don't envision Storm to be time-traveling, like if someone has to go it would be Wolverine and Storm would just take care of the X-Mansion and the students. But with this movie, I have a feeling its Wolverine and Storm. But I hope Bishop is one of the time-travelers.

I like this idea! They should just make sure Rogue and Gambit are in it.

I wonder if the producers got the idea from here!!!!!

Just put my name in the closing credits after "a special thank you to..." and I'll be happy. I don't need any monetary compensation!

It seems Patrick Stewart hinted that this really is happening.

Not sure quite what you are trying to claim credit for... BUT Days of Future Past was in the minds of the producers YEARS AGO, the evidence being the opening sequence of The Last Stand in 2006 (the Sentinel and setting were an homage to the story).

In fact, someone who seemed to be connected with the franchise came on this forum in 2005 and asked for fans' favourite storylines and I was the one to mention Days of Future Past.

So I claim credit for the idea, as mentioned SEVEN YEARS AGO!

I don't think Gambit is not gonna be in this movie. Even if they ignored the Gambit that we saw on XOW.

 

[Great Mind(s)]

I had this idea too, I think most of us have! It just makes sense and is kind of brilliant.

We all win if we see this...

Best seed I ever planted.

I see a thread about X4 and about a First Class sequel but why not do both at the same time in the same movie?

Given the critical praise but light box office of First Class and the love of the trilogy by most, it makes the most sense for Fox.

For me, First Class/X1/X2 is now the X-Men trilogy with X3 as a side note. Those three films are now THE best trilogy the genre has delivered. So...

X4 = Days of Future Past with BOTH casts!!!

Old Xavier (Patrick Stewart) contacts young Xavier (James McAvoy) to save the world! Logan (Hugh Jackman) can stay the same age but use different actors for the same characters in both time periods!!!!! Fassbender plays off Sir Ian and we get a younger Storm and Cyclops plus real Sentinel attacks. Killing Logan and Storm and Peter in the future would make for great cinema and that way the old cast can hand the franchise off to the new cast in a cool fashion. Restore the box office glory and we all win.

Yeah, 92% with the critics...

You're welcome.

Now that everyone has this at home, you're still welcome.

Would it have hurt Fox to put my name in the credits?

...

 

[Asteroid-Man]

NO!

First of all 1st Class/X1/X2 is not the new X-Men trilogy

2nd, they can't revive Professor X as Patrick Stewart w/ no explanation.

You called it.

 

[Rike]

Very good idea. I hope they eventually do it.

Spoiler

 

[psylockolussus]

They just did with X-Men: Days of Future Past.

Might want to check the dates of the posts...

 

[AgentGojiraRgr]

This is amazing

 

[MakeMinesMarvel]

FOX will never erase X3 into the continuity even if the fans said so.

 

[psylockolussus]

They didn't. X3 like with X1/X2 are part of the original timeline and those films are still canon, original timeline leads to new timeline, simple as that. Plus, DOFP clearly acknowledged X3 by showing flashbacks from X3 and listing the film on the credits.

Instead of using annoying gifs, why don't you discuss things without appearing as annoying and snappy. You also gloat a lot.

Very mature.
