BSP Episode 321: X-Men: Days of Future Past

Join the gang as they discuss the 2014 film X-Men: Days of Future Past.

  • Directed by Bryan Singer
  • Written by Simon Kinberg
  • Starring Hugh Jackman, James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Halle Berry, Nicholas Hoult, Anna Paquin, Ellen Page, Peter Dinklage, Shawn Ashmore

X-Men: Days of Future Past is the latest offering from the X-Men franchise and the return of Bryan Singer. This movie is part sequel to X-Men: First Class and part continuation of the present-day X-Men story. It begins the story from the future with the present-day X-Men cast (Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, et cetera) who must figure out who to go back in time to change history and thus save mutants and humanity alike.

Worth noting:

  • Hail the appearance of Quicksilver!
  • Picking up a stadium is dumb but unnecessary.
  • On moral ambiguity as an enduring feature of X-Men stories and awesome Peter Dinklage moustache action.
  • David’s reign of supervillainy.
