    What if it's Mystique shape shifting to a naked Magneto or Wolverine?

    No Vin Diesel won't be in this unfortunately.

    I have low expectations for X-Men: Days of Future Past, because I'm not really a fan of Singer's previous X-Men flicks and the images of the Sentinels. I would like to keep my expectations low to avoid any disappointments.

    Always a wise course of action. I'm not too hyped about the movie, but I am pleased that either people who have seen it think it's good, or that Fox cares enough about the franchise to flood the net with fake reviews.

    That's okay, too.

    It can't be badly written as The Last Stand or as unwatchably awful like Origins were? It just can't.

    That's what I said about The Amazing Spider-Man 2, in comparison to Raimi's Spidey 3.

    Anyway, I really hope they introduce X-23 before Hugh Jackman retires, as sort of a passing of the torch.

    I did in some respects, like under developed/two dimensional villains (especially Rhino in ASM2). But, I know many people enjoyed ASM2. Actually, I am the minority in my circle of friends that did not like the film.

    Anyway, I'm hoping DOFP will truly be a remarkable X-Men film, rather than a "Wolverine and his Merry Mutants" flick. It still bothers me the way Singer handled Cyclops and Storm.

    The controversy over Singer is also troubling.

    I find it interesting that only a civil lawsuit has been filed against Singer and there are no criminal indictments as of yet.

    Costume aside, at least the actor looks like he's enjoying himself and is glad to be there. Plus they made super-speed look cool and not just "watch this blur move around the screen."

    Maybe because he has an alibi.

    Also, California has one of the shortest statue of limitations for reporting child sexual abuse.

    Why is Pietro now Peter? Why does Fox's cinematic X-Men seem made up almost entirely of Americans or British? Are they really so afraid of the international flavour of the team that characterised the X-Men comics I remember?

    Nightcrawler wasn't American or British, but he was only in one movie.
    Magneto is technically German, as was Shaw. But your accent is a product of where you were raised & Magneto grew up elsewhere

    I only really remember Colossus from X2 and as I recall he sounded like an American.
    I know he had an accent in the animated stuff but that's not the same

    Best guess is to distinguish him from the Quicksilver that's also being used in The Avengers. But that's about all I can think of.
