This thread will contain spoilers, so if you haven't seen the movie yet, and you don't want to ready any spoilers, then stop reading this thread right now!! :coolsmiley:
Seeing (what MD told me was) En Sabah Nur at the end of the credits was exciting. Looking forward to where the next X-Men movie will take us. Cyclops and Jean Grey were also nice to see again.
I loved Day of Future past. And it was worthwhile to see in 3D.
I thought it bizarre that the post First Class young Xavier could walk, but they explained it.
i thought it was awesome but i have some gaps - youve got Magneto in the future errr........ magneteing - didnt he lose his powers at the end of one of the films?
and Charles was a reduced to a hankie in the same film but he now hes back and even has a new wheel chair!
and then i thought because the past has changed these events never happened - but thats before the past gets changed
and then (!) did Mystique set up Wolverine to be adamantiumed seen as she was disguised as the guy who did it?
and now i have to read everything about Apocolypse and loved the four horsemen parked on the sand dune opposite watching
Apocalypse is actually a fairly easy guy to recognize. Anyone familiar with Darkseid, from the Superman books, will note a striking resemblance between the two. Having said that, it actually appeared, to me, to be Mr. Sinister. Although, everything I have read to this point suggest it is Apocalypse, not Sinister, building those pyramids.
nay the geek.....
THE NERD FLOWS STRONG HERE!!!
I cant get my best friend to keep current on either the comic or tv version of the Walking Dead. but fuck me if he cant go into a graduate dissertation on the ins and outs of the X-men.
frankly it's quite annoying. :(
I know. Because Super heroes beat zombies EVERY time. You should look in to it.

I guess that Bryan Singer decided to ignore what Brett Ratner did in X3.
Just say the film and loved it. The scene after the credits left me clueless though. :(
Google it, I did and it's very exciting or get md to school ya

The character in the hood was not exactly that buff...
Yup that was apocalypse and his four horsemen. Cool! I hope they re introduce the Angel (Archangel)
I have to say that they scene with Quicksilver in the Pentagon kitchen was one of my favourites in the whole movie.

Ha yes that was awesome..... also impressed with dumping the stadium around the Whitehouse
And I'm not afraid to admit a little moisture when wolverine came to and found Jean in the doorway
You'd think they'd keep Quicksilver around so he could just run up and nab Magneto's helmet whenever the need arose. Could've prevented that whole stadium thing.

I guess they let him go home after he helped spring daddy Magneto, 'cause he was just a teenager. Still, with the fate of the world in play, I would kept all assets on the field; and not let one go home to play pinball.
^That did point out one tiny gripe I had with the film- there were several anachronisms, starting with Quicksilver's headphones and whatever they were plugged into. No Walkmen or iPods back in 1973. There were a few others that escape me ATM though. Possibly some lingo?
let the nerdgasim flow.

meh... I cant get past the spandex costumes and shit. Wolverine in jeans and a riding jacket work for me.

I would think with your taste in women, spandex would be a GOOD thing. Besides, who wants to date a girl with her naughty bits decaying. If that sounds like you, then you should SERIOUSLY have that looked in to. And I will let someone more crass address that Wolverine comment. ;)
there is no one more capable of crassness then I.
having said that I wasn't speaking on the women.
I had horrible visions of LB shaving an aquaman costume at BB and demanding he wear it.
^^^ that was supposed to be "throwing an aquaman costume" but I'll let the typo stand as subconscious spoken word poetry.
Wife and I went last night. She has seen it twice. Loved the movie.
Quicksilver could have had a portable radio with headphones. I had one of those back in 1972. Portable tape players came later. But until you mentioned it I had not even thought about it.
Remember - its an "alternate past" in a "comic book movie."
Just got back from watching the movie. Definitely enjoyed it; am very glad I went.
Probably my single biggest critiques is that the "future" cast (particularly Sir Ian McKellen and Halle Berry) felt way under-utilized. I also didn't care for how Fassbender's younger Magneto felt like he stuck being the main Designated Villain (despite a nice moment or two with the younger Xavier). However, these criticism aren't enough to prevent my giving DoFP a solid thumbs-up.
