" Just because someone stumbles and loses the way doesn't mean they're lost forever" That's the best quote from Professor X & it's true in real life too.

"What is the last thing you remember?" "Drowning..." The same thing he told Charles in the Original X-Men movie/timeline Also my heart broke listening to Eric tell Charles "So many years fighting... To have a precious few of them back..." (;_;)

This is my favorite super hero movie before the MCU era. I loved the connection between X-Men's original cast and their younger versions of X-Men First Class.

“Whatever happens from now, promise me one thing. Storm, Scott, Jean... you'll look out for these names and protect them. We will need you, Professor” That scene with Logan and Charles is one of my favourite parts of the film it is a small one but it’s very impactful. Not only because it shows that X-Men 2000 will happen no matter what, but more importantly it shows Logan cares about his friends, his family, it’s why he’s my favourite character aside from Magneto.

Logan's style in this movie was just so good. I managed to find me a pretty close pair of shades that he wore with the gradient fade. But oh goodness this ending got me something good. Seeing Beast, Iceman, Rogue, Colossus, Shadowcat and finally Jean and Scott gave me so much joy.

Since you mentioned WandaVision, the "Recasting" of Pietro is a fun tie in because Evan is playing the same character from Age of Ultron, just the Fox X-men version of him

Fun fact: Quicksilver's line "They told me you can control metal... my mom once dated a guy who could do that" is a reference to the comics, where it is well-established canon that Magneto is Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch's father.

I love how Bobby is the last line of defence to the professor kitty and Logan (theatrical version)

NOTE: completely forget that you saw Mystique's eyes for Striker in the end scene... because Fox sure forgot about it

There's an extended version called the Rogue Cut, in which due to Kitty's injuries from when Logan briefly snapped, the others need to go get Rogue so that she can take Kitty's place. It's implied that in addition to Mystique's powers, that the newer Sentinels also benefited from experiments and research done on Rogue, whose powers are adaptive.

One of my favorite things about X-Men was how complicated everyone was, it always covered the things we deal with in daily life on a larger scale.

This really was one of the top two X-Men movies for me.

The kitchen scene is one of Quicksilver's top two most iconic movie moments - the other is the scene where he rescues everyone from the exploding mansion in Apocalypse. It's just as great of a moment.

I love that Logan is really happy when he sees Scott at the end. It's like: "Oh wow! Even Scott's alive in this new timeline. And that's great, because he and Jean are alive and happy!" 🤣 I kind of wish this iteration of the X-Men universe had just ended with this movie on a hopeful note, then we wouldn't have had to sink to the lows of Apocalypse and Dark Phoenix. Of course, then we also wouldn't have got the excellent "Logan", sooo..... 😢

Days Of Future Past should've been the last X-Men movie, given what happened to the franchise afterwards with the likes of Deadpool, Apocalypse, Dark Phoenix, New Mutants, and Logan. It was such a perfect ending to the series. Also, sidenote, Charles' taking the serum to heal his legs and stop his powers, is more than because Erik and Raven left. It's also heavily implied that Charles watched all his students and teachers get drafted into the Vietnam War and through his telepathy sensed them dying, why he closed down the school and isolated himself.

There's another version of this movie called the Rogue Cut, which features a subplot where they need to rescue her in the future so she can help Logan. I think it is the superior version

Oh wow, I remember watching this on its first day in cinemas way back 2014. My friend and I watched and twice in a row because it was really amazing. And that Quicksilver slow-mo scene really blew the audience's minds.

Days of future past was a X-Men comic book series back in the 80s or 90s. That’s where the title came from

X-MEN days of future past is my favorite of all the X-MEN movies

They did a really good job of balancing the needs of old comic fans (like me) who remembered the original Days of Future Past storyline from the early 80s and people who only knew the movies. Unlike most adaptations of landmark comics, they managed to keep the essence of what made it great while not being afraid to make massive changes to the details. I particularly like the idea of going into the characters' early days, rather than just going back to the "present" of the series. And we get introduced to Evan Peters' Quicksilver! I'm sorry you've already seen WandaVision, because a great moment in that series will have lost quite a bit of its impact. Anyway, thoughtful reaction as always, thanks!

You are officially my favorite reactor now, I loved the ancient aliens comment lol

The blue skin dude in the post credit scene was Apocalypse who is the First Mutant and is the big bad in the next film. He won't look the same though because in X-Men Apocalypse he is played by Oscar Isaac

Quicksilver is one of the coolest X-men characters) His scenes are so amazing, especially the run in the kitchen scene)))

What I never could get behind in this movie is that Magneto's prison is better in 1973 than in 2003

Fun Fact: Magneto is the father of Wanda and Pietro (who you saw in the MCU and ,ore recently in Wandavision) in the comics and Evan Peters is playing Pietro in this movie although you do legal reasons they're calling him Peter. Unfortunately that was retconed in 2014 much to the disappointment of the fans.

As far as X-men movies go, I felt this was an "Avengers" level film and doesn't get enough love. Easily the best in the catalog.

5:20 Vicky: "Eric you Dbag." Missed the next 10 mins from laughing so hard had tears!

The Rogue Cut is the definitive way to watch Days of Future Past.

Vkunia at the end of the movie: I'm so happy right now! Me: *looking at Logan* Oh boy...

Stewart was always a great X. Glad he's able to "cameo" in a number of films.

This movie easily makes me cry. One of best superhero movies

Its one of the very few movies in general, that i can watch on repeat without getting bored. Same as Shaun of The Dead and Resident Evil Vendetta

Your X-Men reactions are the gifts we didn't know we needed. Thanks 🙂

I totally forgot about Logan "what the hell is that" line hahahahaha

One of the top-tier X-Men movies. The ending gets me every time. (I like the Rogue Cut slightly better, but that's a very small difference.)

I believe the title is from Arthuian legend. Merlin was born in the future, and grew younger. What was everyone's future was his past, and everyone's past, was Merlin's future. I believe the comic book this movie was adapted from, was written by Chris Claremont who loved the knights of the round table. He used very little source material as he could to make his story as original as he possible. Regardless, there was huge chunks of this movie that seemed to be missing. It seemed important when Apocolypse was in his fight with Jean Grey, and he mentions her as the perfect being, that he was referencing something he heard or dreamed about thousands of years ago. Also, it seemed important that parts of his armor had meaning too, as it was ripped away from him, piece by piece, that he was losing some of his powers. I didn't read the comic books, but I read about them. So greater understanding might have been had by reading the comic books as they tended to drone on about such details. Perhaps the movie's screenwriter and director counted on fans having read the comic books to understand the missing finer points. I don't know...

The name Trask in Marvel dates back to the 1960’s. The Stark anagram is likely coincidental (unless Stan Lee used the anagram to derive Trask. I haven’t seen any reference to that). :-)

11:25 fun fact: Mystique and Azazel are the parents of Nightcrawler... so... when she's looking at his autopsy photo here it's not just the first time she's seeing the corpse of a former teammate, but of a lover and father of her child. ...though... presumably she's not a great mother as it seems she abandoned Kurt as a baby somewhere in Germany in the late 60s or early 70s. I assume she felt the work she was doing with Eric for mutant liberation was either too dangerous or time consuming for her to be mothering, so she left the child at a church or monastery, which is maybe why he grew up so religious.

I never thought I'd see the day someone made a Spaceballs reference while watching an X-Men movie lol

Unfortunately, through editing, it doesn't show how 'Rogue' came in and took Kitty's power to keep a link with Logan. That's one of my favorite story lines. It's great to see how the past and future meet and how it ties up some of the loose ends which MCU is infamous for. You can't help but all in love with 'Raven' in 70's fashion. LOL

This movie was an emotional ride, not only one of the best X-men movie even one of the best marvel movie for me

32:40 The place : Ancient Egypt People song : "En Sabbah Nur! En Sabbah Nur!..." The guy obviouly making the Pyramid : a mutant Behind him : four horsemen... One of the best teaser I ever seen in my life!

Now you understand the significance of them having Evan Peters in WanderVision as Pietro. :)

The best movie I had ever seen in 2014 along with The Winter Soldier, Godzilla, Fury, and Whiplash! This is my first X-Men movie I went to see in theaters! I agree with your comment about Evan Peters! He’s a very great actor imo, and I too wish to be friends with him, lol! He nails this role as a speedster character!

This movie is based on a 2-part story from the comics with the same title, one of the best X-Men stories ever made written by two of the best comic books writers ever: Chris Claremont and John Byrne (who also pencilled the art). It was a relief to see that the movie made justice to that story when it was released. And no, Trask isn't an anagram for Stark: Bolivar Trask's first appearance on the comics was on 1965, waaaaaaaaaaaay before GRRM even started to dream about writing A Song of Ice and Fire. That's just a fun coincidence. XD

VKunia, Evan Peters showing up in Wandavision was supposed to be a whole easter egg/shocking moment where we were like, "omg?! Are they finally gonna do xmen?!" Everyone who was watching it then gasped lol. You just watched it out of order so you didn't get the same effect : )

It would've been cooler having a whole movie about mutants fighting for their survival in this future Because the future scenes were far more interesting than the past scenes

I didn't know my mouse could move as fast as it did when I went to click on this vid! keep up the great reactions Vicky! I'm happy I was able to make it to your B-day stream

6:49 - oh my God that’s Chris Claremont playing one of the senators. He is a famous X-Men writer who wrote the original days of future past story that this movie is based off of… neat

Love your Reactions, keep up the good work.

22:56 as someone who like trains... I love the fact you thought of the workers who's gona have to fix that...

I have loved watching the movie "with you" lately, the movies and series you see, I like them a lot and I also like your reactions a lot, you can tell they are true, keep it up and a hug from Valencia Spain from a fan.❤❤❤

the directors cut shows it was also Rogue along with Raven that made the Sentinels.

32:50 I missed a lot of the films when they first came out…so I already knew…but watching reactors see the after credits scene…I love the little touch in the background of four people in the background mounted on horses…

“They steal powers? Oh… No…” 3:26 “When did the recent update come out?” *STOP IT* 😂😭

It seems like you made the connection but I wanted to clarify one thing about Evan Peter's Quicksilver. He plays the same character as Wanda's brother in Age of Ultron. In the comics, Wanda and Quicksilver are mutants and Magneto is their father. When Disney bought Fox, it was shortly before WandaVision came out. They had Evan Peter's make an appearance as Wanda's brother instead of the original actor to kind of say "yeah, we have the x-men, and we can use their actors now" Also, fun fact, both quciksilvers were in the movie KickAss

I can't believe she made a Destiny 2 joke. Love you so much

It was simultaneously a joy and a bummer to see one of my all-time favorite X-Men characters sort of show up in this movie. His name is Rockslide and he’s this big rock monster looking guy. He’s a big fan of the Hulk. One of the Sentinels turns into big jagged rocks and I’m like OH is that a hint at Rockslide?? But then oh yeah… if the Sentinel has his powers, Rockslide is probably dead… lol

For me this is the end of the “team” X-Men movies. It adapted one of my favorite X-Men stories, made the sentinels horrifying, brought the two eras together nicely and ended both on a satisfactory note. After this I just couldn’t get that excited for Apocalypse when I saw the trailer and after seeing it I was still underwhelmed. I didn’t bother with Dark Phoenix and New Mutants beyond seeing clips on YT

After X-Men 3 Last Stand they said that was it for the older cast of X-Men. But when this came out AND that X-Men 2 theme song played, yo the theatre was alive.

They told me you could move metal. My mom told me she dated a guy who could do that Ah yes the confirmation that Pietro (quicksilver) and Wanda (scarlet witch) are the children of Magneto

Great reaction. Two more X-men movies to go, not as good as this one, but it'll be a lot of fun rewatching them through your perceptive eyes. Thank you.

DoFP is AWESOME and the comic book run was even better :) When McAvoy and Stewart are talking it just bring tears 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲 Highly recommend other McAvoy films like Split! :D

@14:14 "He's so good!" Now you know why the *ENTIRE* X-Men fanbase felt that the "Ralph BONER" thing was a huge spit and slap in the face.

Its really funny that theres multiple bullet curving in this movie when James Mcavoy was also in Wanted where they curved bullets

Since you enjoyed this, you should search out and watch the "Rogue Cut" version of this movie. Rogue was originally supposed to be an important part but they cut all her scenes except the last little cameo. The Rogue Cut restores them and makes an even better version of this movie.

9:57 To be fair he was hit in the spine and crippled by a bullet deflected by his former best friend who'd become his worst enemy, his adopted sister joined Erik because he accepted her while Charles didn't and told her to hide her blue skin and his telepathic powers were overwhelming him.

Funny you should mention about Mystique being at the forefront and a main part of the story. They chenged everything from the comics to make her front and center because of the actress playing her. She was never a main character.

27:36 Magneto is an Omega-Level Mutant, meaning that there is no quantifiable upper-limit to his powers. His powers are so great that he's reversed the polarity of the earth, rebuilt a celestial, and even created wormholes with his powers of magnetism Also, the reason for his..."jerkiness" is because he's an extremist due to the trauma he endured during the Holocaust

Iceman is immortal in ice form.

I love your reactions so much, Vicky. ❤

Fun fact: Dr. Trask is an anagram of Tony Stark, as both of them make advanced weapons in Marvel movies.

Too bad you didn’t watch the Rogue Cut. The normal version is still very good but the Rogue Cut just makes it even better.

i never actually noticed that Trask is an anagram for Stark until she pointed it out lol

Look at the "rogue cut " of x-men days of future past ... that is in some parts diffrent... but good....better in my opinion

Logan extends original bone claws. "I called it."

The whole time travel concept is also used in DC Comics, mainly involving Flash. Also, it's appropriate that you mention Arnold Schwarzenegger as the Terminator since James Cameron was one of the consulting people for the film and screenplay along with Chris Claremont, who wrote the initial comic book storyline for Uncanny X-Men.

You & I had the same reaction to mystic being striker when lifting login out of the river... Shock and Delight

This is one of my favorite X-Men movies. Glad you watched it!

Days of Future Past was the name of The epic concept album by The Moody Blues (from.. well, more than 40 years ago). The movie is really good, though 22 points!

In the comics, originally, Magneto was the father of Peter and Wanda Maximoff... that's why Quicksilver mentions that his mom knew someone who could control metal.

The end credit seen shows Apocalypse, the world's first mutant building the pyramid with his Four Horsemen watching from afar.

One of the most emotionally satisfying endings in a superhero movie.

Ok, I respect that you’ve seen spaceballs. Nice reference

Yeah this movie is well made, the time aspect kind of messes with your head but once "most" of the action is focused in the past you start to get into it. I'm not sure but I'm thinking you watched the theatrical release. I didn't see rogue in this movie... in the cut down YT video. So there is another version out there with even more fun bits. Loved the reaction, as always. Love your smile for the good bits it is very infectious. Keep up the great work.

This in my eyes is the best movie based on a Marvel-comicbook EVER DONE !!!

Quite possibly the best X-Men movie. A fantastic yet cohesive plot, multi-generational incarnations of the characters, excellent writing, amazing cast (as always), and it really grabs you from beginning to end like few movies do (in or out of the Super-Hero genre).

Trask looks more like a Lannister than a Stark to me.

Hi Vicky , so happy to see you😊 I love your reaction to X-Men Days of Future Past you know I remember watching this movie in theaters a long time ago and did 2014 at AMC Theaters and I can't wait to see you react to more X-Men like X-Men apocalypse, also happy soon Halloween Vicky🎃🎃🎃👻👻👻🍫🍭🍬🌚🐺

Days of future past supposed to be the last film of the x-men franchise where old and new cast get together, but corporate people want it to release earlier then apocalypse. That's why the story just focus back on the younger characters. I personally just like to pretend the apocalypse doesn't exist.

This was certainly one of the best in the franchise! 😁

4:11 That "we kill the bad guys" sounds like "everyone kills" to me. An example to follow, we all "have" to kill.😆🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Best 'soft reboot' ever, letting the old cast meet the new, Patrick Stewart giving James McAvoy the confidence he needs to carry on. X-Men have done time travel so many times it's become cliched, but this was handled very well. Funny how Mystique saves the day while disguised as Richard Nixon of all people.

29:21 the girl on his hip, yep she's wanda... From another universe

Sweetie, the reason why "Days of Future Past" worked so well as a movie is because they stuck to the writing and plot of the 11-issue series Marvel Published in the late 90's--The Fox animated series ran with it over the course of a season and it was a big TV hit. 18:42...That guy looked just like Pres. NIxon, holy cow!!

This is probably my favourite X-Men movie! Tho Apocalypse is probably my favourite Magneto movie.

32:50 Well, when Apocalypse is the one building them, it's better to worship the guy making them instead of, ya know, pissing off one of the most powerful mutants to have ever existed :D

Quicksilver is Eric's son and the post credit scene was Apocalypse

@13:25, if nobody has mentioned it yet - for a time in the comics Magneto was the father of Wanda and Pietro. But I believe it got retconned sometime in the last 20 years.

Fun Fact: A lot of this movie's plot was adapted from the Age of Ultron comic storyline.
