Not to me.
Not only that there are factors such as gender, for the films, the x gene.
Theres no telling if you delayed your birthdate or make a wayfor your parents to make a baby earlier that it would still be you. To make it simple, imo stick with the ages that were established in timeline A.
With time-travel, everything changes.
Everyone in timeline B is a different person than in timeline A. The genetics would be different, as would their experiences, both of which are what makes someone who they are. They got the same actors to portray the ones who received little visible change for the sake of practicality. And in a universe with so many recasts/retcons, I don't see the problem with the opposite scenario -- casting the same actor for the moments where the person should look slightly/completely different.
So has he actually said we could see angel in the 80s?
That really makes no sense on a number of levels.
I'm just saying for Kinberg, it makes no sense. If Angel would be a teenager or something with Jean and Scott in Apocalypse, he'd have to be born before 1973, ie before the timeline changes. And obviously, it doesn't really make sense that someone could be born earlier because they wouldn't be the same person.
They should just friggin do another movie set in the OT time with Ben Foster reprising his role, he's a real good actor. They could introduce a young child Angel in Apocalypse and maybe have a cliffhanger ending where the kid gets captured. We never saw Angel at the end of DOFP, so he could already be Archangel somewhere in the OT timeline.
Who caressss about continuity. If ignoring when Eric and Charles met yielded one of the best X-Men movies, I say they can ignore whatever the hell they want as long as the story is worth it.
Yep, exactly. I already find it a little hard to believe that Kitty, Bobby, etc. are still themselves in the future-- different birth dates are even more of a stretch.
