  Havok's back... and it looks like he's a Vietnam combatant. __________________

Ummmm...
The program seemed to suggest a fairly broad focus. A good question to ask might be about whether he is ever frustrated by how often and easily genre cinema is dismissed as empty or lightweight, particularly in light of the deeper social and political themes of the X-Men movies that he's been involved with. Or maybe you could ask about how difficult it is keeping everything straight whilst shooting a film that takes place in multiple locations, and timelines. Or ask him how difficult it is to keep a focus on actors and performance, while dealing with the logistics of making the kind of huge movies he's often been involved with. Or you could get geeky specific, and ask whether Alex Summers is Scott Summers' little brother in the movie-verse, and how that could possibly be. And if he's not his brother, then are they related at all in the movies. Is this something he plans to address in Days'? Does he even think it needs addressing? Is it better off left alone? Finally: Matthew Vaughan made the stylistic choice to echo Terrence young and Guy Hamilton's work on the Bond movies of the 60's, has he approached the 70's sequences in Days' with a similar bent? Is there an Alan J. Pakula All the Presidents Men tonality maybe, or perhaps something related to the genre movies of the era; Logans Run etc. ... anyway, I hope you enjoy yourself.  __________________

Just pick one!
 ... or maybe something simpler like; This is the fourth film you'll be involved with, what is it that keeps bringing you back to the X-Men? 2013 Comic-Con Preview: From Amazing Spider-Man 2 to X-Men: Days of Future Past, 6 Can't-Miss Movie Panels X-Men: Days of Future Past: While no castmembers have yet to be confirmed, we're guessing loads of fan favorites will be present, given the large cast for the highly-anticipated follow-up to First Class, including Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry, Patrick Stewart and many more. Also: Long live McFassy! Saturday at 4:15 p.m. in Hall H. __________________

Thought of another one!
Very simple! Are there any other X-Men stories that you'd like to adapt after Day's of Future Past? Here's Hugh Jackman confirming Days of Future Past post credit tease in The Wolverine... __________________

Hugh Jackman shares his excitement about The Wolverine from the UK Premiere, and receives a special message from X-men: Days of Future Past director, Bryan Singer...

It's about two hours long.
Sorry! Um... well it's set after X-Men 3, and Wolverine it seems is very much feeling the weight of all the years of loss that his near immortality has brought him. He seems particularly to be dwelling on the death of Jean Grey by his own hand. At his lowest point a woman, Yukio, finds him and asks that he come with her to Japan. Her employer, a man named Shingen is dying. But before he dies he wishes to repay a dept he owes Logan for saving his life in the final days of the second World War. Logan agrees to accompany Yukio, and is quickly drawn into the murky Japanese underworld and a plot to rob him of his immortality. Something he might not be too disappointed to be rid of. Note: Some of this is conjecture. The movie is essentially an adaptation of Chris Claremont and Frank Miller's Wolverine mini series from the 1980's, but some elements, like Wolverine having saved Shingen during the war, or Shingen's desire to obtain Wolverine's healing factor are unique to the movie. It looks like essentially being an action/adventure western (despite it's geographic location), with a neo-noir palate, and a splicing of superhero DNA. There's also a love story at the centre between Logan and Shingen's granddaughter Mariko, with the promise too of some deeper character exploration. ... all that being said, you don't HAVE to watch it. The Days of Future Past bit is really only a tease at the very end of the movie, otherwise it has little to do with Bryan Singer's massive Mutant extravaganza for 2014. Speaking of Days', here's it's and The Wolverine's producer speaking about which group of actors might move forward in a potential sequel, the original 2000 X-Men cast or 2011's X-Men: First Class ensemble? __________________
