I find quiet a few things wrong with this trainer/movie.
Days of Future Past? wtf is this? are we using james bond movie titles now?
Jennifer Lawrence does not suit as a younger Rebecca Romijn.
The whole movie does not feel like previous xmen movies.
Unless it'll be 3+ hours long, they can't do justice to address time travel topic.

I must say, I did not expect that much Dinklage. Looks promising. Comic books have a proud tradition of retcon, good they're trying to undo the franchise suicide note that was X-Men 3.

Taintsays...

The title is direct from the old comic.

It was one of those really great issues because all of the X-men could, and were, getting murdered. Since it was an alternate future and blah blah, they could kill off characters like they never do.

Also hoping they make it pretty long. Time travel, huge cast, it could probably use the time.

Story of our pop cultural existence is that it's always been bullshit, we just don't see it until it's magnified in the public eye. Anyway, I love this stuff -- bullshit or not.

Comics is fer kids and our entitled, half-sentimental reactions betray the weight we wish these stories had.

No, that would be literary device facilitating whatever the writers want. If it's not a hero or villain, it's an object of power or a dimensional force. Or some other meaningless pseudo-scientific babble. The concept of "cosmic consonance" and the forces which balance the Marvel universe use whatever means necessary to maintain it.

Our job in the 21st century is to dismantle our obsessive desire to take root in humanity's collective canon of B.S. You'd think internet savviness would usher in this understanding, but it seems to exacerbate the emotional attachment and selfish need to require "explanation" in a fantasy world where anything can be explained with anything.

(P.S. I love comics -- just not the tendencies it creates in the readers, who see comics as words of minor gods.)

is a mutant power facilitating the time travel somehow
