Giger design crossed with vintage Fleischer Studios animation. Much like the original Chris Claremont and John Byrne comic book story from 1981, the movie version of Days of Future Past tells of an apocalyptic hellscape dominated in the future by chilling Sentinels, appearing in this era like a utilitarian H.R. It accomplishes this by adapting one of the most sacred X-Men stories in all of comicdom. Nonetheless, this is most definitely the third X-Men movie that Singer never made and the first true follow-up to Singer’s earliest X-films, allowing the series to course-correct toward some of the weight and grandeur of its original heights. But with Singer returning to the helm, it also provides the opportunity for him to resurrect most of the original cast from the first three X-Men films that were not left completely mangled by the hugely mistaken X-Men: The Last Stand (2006), a movie that this installment grudgingly pays its respects to. By bringing in the most important fresh faces from Matthew Vaughn’s groovy X-Men: First Class (2011), the project is clearly looking to its own future, especially with the star appeal of Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender, and James McAvoy on the rise. The obvious hook of this trip back into the world of mutants and their overeager oppressors is a meeting of the ensembles.
