Screw continuity. Marvel comics having been playing fast and loose with continuity for over half a century. If necessary, they can have Magneto artifically made younger the way they did in the comics (he was reduced to childhood and then brought back to adulthood at a younger age than he started out). It doesn't bother me. And the lack of change in the ages of the X-Men characters in those films may be amusing, but it doesn't bother me one bit. I'm used to seeing X-Men in the comics in 1960s clothes, in 1970s flares, in 1980s leg warmers, in 1990s haircuts, etc, and still looking the same age all that time. In other words, I'm already used to the X-Men not aging significantly over half a century. This is nothing new and it doesn't bother me. Yeah, I know the comics pretend it all happened over the past ten years, but that doesn't hold up very well when you can look back at old comics and see the far-gone eras they belong to and when every year is marked by a Christmas issue.
