At least you got to see the guy from Black Eyed Peas die painfully. :)

I haven't seen the movie in a long time (for obvious reasons), but when they go to get that meteor or whatever, was that vibranium or adamantium?

I don't remember.

Tyler Mane should have at least been Sabertooth again, not Liev Schreiber.

I thought Liev was awesome. Sure he was a totally different character, but at least I cared about him. The Sabertooth from X-Men might as well have been named "Evil Henchman 1".

Tyler Mane could have pulled it off, they just underused his character in the first one, which pissed me off. Mane also looked like how Sabertooth should have looked like in the movie. Liev did do a pretty good job considering the movie was shit but personally, I don't think they should have cast him.

Agreed.  Liev Shcreiber was superior.  This and X-Men: First Class are pretty ripe with continuity errors.  The latter of which would be pretty strong if it could just make up its mind on whether it's a prequel or a reboot.  As it is, it's incredibly half-assed and only follows the other films when it's most convenient.

I take it as a reboot, because there's so many continuity errors that I can't think of it as a prequel.

As much as I like Tyler Mane, the character in this film needed more acting chops. Lots of dialogue and such. I think Liev did an excellent job and was one of the highlights of the film.

Let's all just pretend that Origins was a Syfy original movie. That way, there will be no questioning whether it is canon or not, because lol portnoy... I mean, lol Syfy.

Agreed, even though the director says it's a prequel and there are clearly a number of attempts at making it that way.  I just wish they would commit to one or the other.

The director said it was a prequel? I mean.........aside from the Logan cameo and the intro, there's nothing linking them.

Also, he told the actors to completely dismiss the previous performances of the characters and do their own thing, which is why Michael didn't speak with any kind of British accent.

I believe he admitted to it in an interview, yeah.  There are some things like the young Magneto scenes, Mystique's appearance, the cameos, and some other stuff that's not coming to me off the top of my head.

Let's see, the beginning stuff with Erik, Hugh Jackman and Rebecca Stamos, I'm trying to think of other aspects that linked it but I can't come up with it. Obviously there's way more stuff that doesn't link it, like Erik having a totally different accent, Beast now being around 60 something in X3, Xavier no longer being able to walk in X3 (the beginning), Storm being a nickel and dime prostitute in the streets of Las Vegas, Erik no longer helping Xavier build Cerebro, Alex Summers being like 20 years older than Scott Summers, etc. It's a great movie (minus the ending) but it's a horrible prequel if that's what it's supposed to be.

Yeah, Cyclops' "little" brother could almost be his father.  And don't forget that Moira MacTaggert is in her 30's, but to coincide with X3, she'd have to be about negative six.

And Xavier/Mystique.  It's not like they just met once, that would be no big deal.  Now it's like they grew up as brother and sister. 

But, Matthew Vaughn doesn't seem to care.  https://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/Poniverse/news/?a=21023

I was fine with the Xavier/Raven relationship, I didn't think it contradicted anything in the other movies.

And yea I forgot about Moira. I love that they got an Australian actress to play what is supposed to be an Irish character as an American.

Mathew seemed to really want to change up accents, between making Erik was sounded like American, and of course making Moira America etc he just seemed to not care about the peoples voices from the other movies.

Apart from Mystique and Xavier being complete strangers when they first see each other in X-Men, no it doesn't. Also, didn't she go into the mansion completely undetected in one of the movies? You'd think Xavier would know, seeing as they grew up together.

Yeah, not to mention X1 being the first meeting between Magneto and Wolverine.

Well if I'm not mistaken Logan didn't have the metal in First Class. And I doubt you'd expect anyone to remember someone they met for 5 seconds 40 years later.


Also, I can easily explain why X doesn't remember Raven.............................he got shot in the head which conveniently erased all of the important memories but nothing else.

Right right right.  I forgot that he didn't have the metal yet.  Point conceded.
