X-Men: Days of Future Past

X-Men: Days of Future Past is the biggest X-Men movie to date. It's cast includes both the cast from the original X-Men series as well as the younger cast from X-Men First Class. This alone sets the stage for one of the greatest X-Men movies to date, but the story causes the movie to also be one of the most intriguing movies in the series. While those who have seen all the previous X-Men movies may even be lost at the beginning, its important to just accept the events and enjoy the movie. With the arsenal of mutants at his fingertips, director Bryan Singer makes some truly epic fight scenes. Anyone who is a fan of the X-Men series or even superheroes in general should take time to see this as it is one of the best movies of the year. I, along with others will be anticipating the next X-Men, X-Men: Apocalypse to see what can top this great movie.
One interesting side note about this movie is that one of the mutants is Quicksilver. Quicksilver is a mutant with the power to go incredibly fast but interesting about him is his role in the upcoming Avengers 2. Although he is a marvel character, his rights are owned by Fox, meaning that in the next Avengers he will be played by an entirely different actor. He will also be called a miracle, not a mutant. This is just one of the problems with selling off individual marvel movie rights, others include Spiderman and Wolverine, both of whom are supposed to be part of The Avengers.
