That awkward moment you realize that FOX somehow re-booted the franchise but kept Hugh Jackman

I would really love for them to bring him back for any if the future x-men installments set in the future.

One thing about the futuristic scenes was that they teased all of these characters who could possibly return in a fixed future of the franchise. The only things that had upset me about the futuristic scenes was NOT seeing Master Mole, NOT seeing the Sentinels combine and the lack of some futuristic characters screen time. Other than that their action scenes were quite stunning and I would honestly love to see some form of colorful costumes in a fixed future. I know that very few of them have "vibrant" costumes but more color for some of them would be cool.

I thought Bishop, Warpath, Blink, Iceman & SunSpot all got a decent amount of screen time. Were they used allot? No... but were they used effectively? Hell [frick]ing yes.

And X-Men: DOFP is sill my film of the year and in my opinion the best comic book movie. In the last 5 years.

What was warpaths power it was a little confused about what he could do.

Sunspot -cool. Blink -cool. But FOX has no intention of building the X-universe beyond Wolvervine and friends. Seriously, the more I think about this -the less I enjoy the franchise. There are so many cool characters they could use but they always use the same old characters. It's been 15 years -FOX needs to explore other mutants.

It's too bad that they went with the most obvious look-glowing flames. His look in the comics is much more original considering his power set. But then I remember that his movie version really has little in common with the comic character. Thanks, Singer!

That's new timeline since 1973, not reboot. They kept everybody, not only Hugh.

Sunspot was cool. Hope to see him again in a future film.

Anyone excited that cyclops is alive and will be in the next film shouldn't be too excited. Singer is still involved and has never showed any respect for him. Even though it wasn't Singer that got rid of cyclops in x3. Cyclops 1 scene in xmen dofp was him being the object of a joke in cyclops acting jealous all over again. And the next film will be more of the same.

oh yay... Instead of Sunspot we got this pseudo Human Torch.

He was in the film for what? 2 minutes? [frick] I hate fox's treatment of the X-Men.

This series has been so [frick]ed up from the beginning. Bryan Singer doesn't respect the comics or the fans. I can't believe that people still support this crap. All it is is just "Wolverine and Friends". They rely so much on Wolverine that all the other mutants are just reduced to cameos. They need to reboot this series asap.
