Days of Future Past 'X-men: DOFP' Official CAST Thread (announcements and discussion) - Part 2

[Loki882]

They look good on Magneto (the man really loves his capes doesn't he) and Xavier. Colossus is meh, but not terrible.

 

[The Infernal]

Better than he was in X3 at any rate.

Prepare to be disappointed then, Wolverine is most certainly the time traveler. Which I'm personally more than fine with.

I still don't get why everyone is so certain about this. If it is a mind swap, then sure; Logan is the only one who really makes sense in that scenario. But the pic with the graying temples pretty much proves that he's not physically going back (if it is real, which it seems to be). And yes, mind-swap time travel was in the original comic, but that isn't any reason to assume that they will use it here (since when has Singer been a stickler for story and character faithfulness?).

Also keep in mind that of all the characters in this cast, Logan is the only one who can be played by the same actor in both timelines without the use of time travel. And then there's Bishop, a character whose primary purpose is that he is a time-displaced X-Man. If Bishop doesn't go back in time, then what's the point of even having him? He wasn't in the DoFP comic storyline, so I wouldn't bet on it being a fan service cameo. (I realize this directly contradicts my point about Singer not being faithful and that I could be totally wrong -- I just don't think we can definitively say that Wolverine is "certainly" the time traveler when there isn't really evidence to support it).

 

[Angamb]

what if tomorrow we get another four pics with

Rogue
Warpath
Sunspot
and Blink?



the rest of the new characters and Rogue's new look, all at the same time! I could die tomorrow if this happens, lol

 

[DOFP]

it should be all girls

Storm
Rogue
Kitty
Blink

 

[Loki882]

If Rogue looks like SB Rogue, Kitty looks like Kitty, and Blink is pink, fans are going to lose their minds (more so then they already have over Bishop and Sentinels).

 

[Angamb]

it should be all girls

Storm
Rogue
Kitty
Blink

now that you mention it.... that would get many boys so happy and it would be an original post to most sites, since it would be the first time Fox or any studio releases pics from all the female characters at the same time.

I kind of want to see that already! lol

 

[Illuminata]

Rogue won't be presented tomorrow. I think it will be Saturday if we see any photos of Rogue. Bryan Singer seems to know what he's doing by keeping Paquin's photos and plotline underwraps.

She has been the single person that no one has seen on set. Will be interesting if Comic Con will show any part of her. I think Paquin will join the DOFP panel.

Colossus will look even better especially when we see him in Steel form.

I wish they would just release all the character pictures all at once. Like they did with X3 (with Colossus/Mystique as the late additions).

 

[Loki882]

I do think that he will look better in motion and in metal form (he doesn't look bad here, just not nearly as cool as the other three).

 

[psylockolussus]

So does this confirm that older Magneto won't have his helmet? If he and Charles are working perfectly fine, he doesn't need to wear the helmet anymore and he probably left his helmet in Alcatraz.

 

[Loki882]

Maybe he gave it to one of his children for safe keeping (Pietro perhaps).

 

[psylockolussus]

I don't think the older Magneto will meet Quicksilver in this movie.

 

[Loki882]

Maybe and maybe not. My question is, who is his mother (Mystique possibly)?

 

[psylockolussus]

Lol no.

 

[Illuminata]

Maybe and maybe not. My question is, who is his mother (Mystique possibly)?

That is a possibility. I wouldn't rule it out because with Bryan Singer he does like to shake up things.

In a deleted scene it showed that Mystique was interested in Kurt's records so it made the viewer assume she was reading up on how her son was doing.

 

[Loki882]

I thought that it was obviously hinted that they were romantically involved in the OT. FC merely confirmed that fact, and I've never seen Erik interested in any other woman in any of the movies (Mystique is one of only two people who call him Erik, Xavier being the other). So her being both Kurt and Pietro's mother wouldn't be that far out there.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

What is this OT stuff? Why are we talking about Star Wars?

 

[psylockolussus]

OT means Original trilogy.

 

[Loki882]

X1/X2/X3-Original Trilogy.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

OT means Original trilogy.

Yes, I know what it means. It is a Star Wars phrase. Why are we talking about it on an X-Men board?

 

[Majik1387]

It's not just a Star Wars phrase is why....

 

[DarthSkywalker]

It's not just a Star Wars phrase is why....

Pretty sure George Lucas has it copyrighted. He copyrights everything.

 

[Majik1387]

He sold everything away anyway.

And you can't copyright words like original or trilogy or original trilogy.
