Alex Heat Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 Can I just say that I really don't care for movie Mystique's look still? I always wonder why they keep it when it looks so...bleh. It's hard for me to believe that these are the same folks who churned out something as hilariously awesome as Kelsey Grammer as Beast.

madbassman39 Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 Please refer to the previously linked article. I didn't have your linked article before I had mentioned that it may be future Toad, all I saw was the previously linked Imgur covers. So your "I shouldn't have to explain why" comment was un justified. Your only argument is an article which says "Toad (Past)". You provide no argument aside from that single line as to why Toad couldn't exist in the future. I figured that the background image, although shows its the past, could include future Toad since time travel is the plot of the film. I was speculating, and really didn't need your arrogant remarks.

Faiblesse Des Sens Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 What? You've had that link for several back and forth posts. The issue seems to be is that you didn't bother to read it and still haven't bothered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted January 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 It does just say "Toad (past)" though. It explains nothing. It also says about characters from the original (future) X-men joining forces with the new (past) first class X-men. And Toad was in the original film. Your link was the complete opposite of a concrete explanation on why it isn't the Toad seen in X1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madbassman39 Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Not only does your article explicitly say that Toad cannot be from the future, but we also know that the Empire covers are misleadin. for example Rogue is a cover, but she has been cut from the film entirely. From your linked article The Sentinels are powerful robots created by Trask industries specifically to hunt down - and if it comes to it, to kill - mutants. That obviously puts them at odds with the X-Men, and in a dark future ruled by the Sentinels Professor Xavier (Patrick Stewart ) and Magneto (Ian McKellen) team up to send Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) back in time to avert their rise. The only problem is that he'll have to convince the younger Professor X (James McAvoy) and Magneto (Michael Fassbender) to help him. The ultimate X-Men ensemble fights a war for the survival of the species across two time periods in X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST. The beloved characters from the original “X-Men” film trilogy join forces with their younger selves from “X-Men: First Class,” in an epic battle that must change the past – to save our future. As Dean said, there is nothing here saying it is not Toad from X1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. GOH! Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 It's past Toad, because he's being played by a different actor than X-Men Toad. Only past Wolverine is played by the same actor. QE to the motherfucking D. Also: this argument is ridiculous and nerdy, with FDS all like "You don't know shit, MBM, because you misidentified the nature of a minor villain character in an as-yet unreleased movie. Do you even read comic books?" and MBM being all like "I made an honest mistake, but it's not my fault at all! Let me keep telling you it's not my fault!" and Dean coming in all like "your sources are shit, FDS, do you even nerd?" 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything I've said is entirely based on the movie continuity and the fact that there is no future toad picture listed. It explicitly says "Toad (past)" on the site which means it is the Toad that eventually ends up in X1. This isn't a reboot. As someone else pointed out this will probably end up retconning a bunch of shit though. As in the first 3 movies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. GOH! Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 On the syntagmatic level of your utterances, you did not say anything about Toad's nature or the comics. Of course, it is inescapable that Toad is a minor villain in the X-Men film franchise and that my exaggeration of your intent was a self-evident attempt at humor.

deanb Posted March 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Yeah I wondered if the UK version might be stopped from being seen by US visitors just as the main one has been blocked from non-Americans.

TCP Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 First Class was so good. But Brian Singer is so bad... but this story line is so good..... I'll go see this opening weekend but goddammit I hate Singer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 I liked First Class a lot better the second time I saw it, when I wasn't as distracted by the continuity problems. Singer was also a producer on First Class, why would he be any more likely to fuck this one up than that one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strangelove Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 Im not sure why people hate Singer so much. I can only assume it's because of Superman Returns. I havent seen it but even if I had I wouldn't blame all it's problems on him, Superman just sucks. Man Of Steel sucked too. And so have almost all of the Superman movies. On the other side of the coin, he directed the first 2 Xmen movies and produced First Class, so he's had his hand in all the good Xmen movies. Theres no reason not to trust him. I still dont though. I dont blindly trust any director. If you do though, you should probably trust Singer. Terrible costumes(in EVERY Xmen movie) aside, he's done alright.

TheMightyEthan Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 I don't tend to specifically trust anyone, but I also don't assume they're going to fuck up unless past experience tells me they will. I did trust Christopher Nolan until The Dark Knight Rises. Although even that movie wasn't bad, it just wasn't up to the quality of the other two.

TCP Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 I will now rank the X-Men films. My ranking is fact, not opinion. 1) Days of Future Past 2) First Class 3) X2 4) The Wolverine 5) X1 6) X3 7) Wolverine Origins (even though my best friend from college was a pretty notable extra, the tall blonde guy Wolverine rescued at the end of the film, that still can't save the film from being garbage) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMightyEthan Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Oh no, Days of Future Past was SO MUCH better than First Class. I haven't seen the other X-Men films recently enough to be able to accurately rank them though. Other than to say Wolverine Origins is at the bottom (unless The Wolverine is worse, I haven't see that one at all). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCP Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 (edited) The Wolverine is "good" not great, but good. RANKING IT BELOW X3?! COME ON, DAN, COME THE FUCK ON. THAT'S CRAZY TALK. X3 KILLED THE LEADER OF THE XMEN (besides Xavier) OFF CAMERA. THAT WOULD BE LIKE AVENGERS 2 KILLING CAPTAIN AMERICA, OFF CAMERA. Jesus.
