Time to make history. The X-Men are going to unite to defeat evil and fight a war before it even begins. With the very big reveal of Bryan Singer's X-Men: Days of Future Past at Comic-Con this past weekend, fans have been abuzz about all things X-Men, both the old and new generation. To top off all that we've seen so far, including a sentinel head and propaganda posters for Trask Industries, the very first two official posters have been unveiled, and they're awesome. They show both actors as one character, Magneto and Professor X, intertwined within a big colored X. I love the look of these. And it's only just the start of their marketing.
Here are the two teaser posters, first debuted on EW.com. Now available in high def via X-MenMovies.com:
Patrick Stewart and James McAvoy as Charles Xavier / Professor X:
Ian McKellen and Michael Fassbender as Erik Lehnsherr / Magneto:
X-Men: Days of Future Past is directed by Bryan Singer and written by Matthew Vaughn and Simon Kinberg. The sequel features cast members from the original X-Men franchise like Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Halle Berry, Anna Paquin, Ellen Page, Shawn Ashmore and Daniel Cudmore along with X-Men: First Class cast members like James McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, and Michael Fassbender. New cast members include Omar Sy, Peter Dinklage, Fan Bingbing and Boo Boo Stewart. It's a crowded cast, so stay tuned for any further updates, especially from Bryan Singer on Twitter. 20th Century Fox has Days of Future Past set for release May 23rd next summer.

Why so critical my friend? It's just a poster.

What, because it is just a poster I cannot dislike it? I do not like looking at them. I think its an ok idea but I just do not think they look good.

To go out of your way to dislike something seems to embody the opposite sentiment one should approach anything with... Or at least I thought positivity was a something people aspired toward.

What the shit are you talking about, its a movie poster that I think looks shitty. Nothing more nothing less.

Nevermind sir. I'd be wasting my time lol.

You already wasted your time by implying that I am not allowed to dislike something. Now you have no way to back up your assertion so you bow out? Maybe I got trolled. If so good troll sir /hat tip.

I approve of many things, But yes I am one of the more hard to please people that comes around these part.

People should strive towards NEUTRAL, UNBIASED approach to anything .Why ? The best way to get a true sense of anything,imho. Positivity tends to ignore sometimes fatal flaws and possible deadly traps.It's not a very good strategy and not a sensible way to go through life.To exaggerate,it's like being on drugs all the time. Is that fun ? Sure.Sensible ? Few would think that. It is a very good marketing tool though. Just look at all the junk media that gets sold by the millions like "The Secret " and other feel-good bullshit which deludes the reader and fills the pockets of "snake oil salesman". And that's just a very obvious example. Positivity may be a good motivational technique when you are trying to get yourself to do something but it's not a very good way to approach anything else.Clouds the judgement.Just like negativity.

What??? Being positive or negative can cloud your judgment? What religion are you in? Being delusional clouds your judgment if anything.

O.k.So tell me what constitutes being delusional? Don't you agree that being positive makes you dismissive towards negative aspects of reality ,as in "thinking positive thoughts and focusing only on the positive makes the bad things disappear " mentality ? How is that not delusional ? Negativity is mostly rooted in an emotional response ,"things I don't like are happening to me therefore everything sucks". Not really "unclouded "judgement ,right ? Both outlooks make you filter out "undesired" information which can lead to impaired judgement,right? I am not saying people are supposed to be emotionless robots,but trying to be positive all the time no matter what is a bit simplistic approach to life and actually pretty narrow minded if you really think about it. But please, enlighten me,maybe I am a completely wrong.

Ave you seen either of the Fantastic Four movies? Or for that matter, Daredevil, Elektra, or X-Men Origins: Wolverine? Even X3 is on shaky ground in comparison to Marvel's movies.
Phillip Gockel on Jul 22, 2013

Have you seen Iron Man 2/3? Captain America?...all mediocre movies...where First Class and X2 are one of the best comic book movies...
dawko on Jul 22, 2013

You can't just ignore the rest of the great Marvel productions.....

Those are amazing posters. Just get rid of all the text and they stand on their own.

They are just teaser posters, right? They look like in-magazine graphics that EMPIRE would make to accompany an article about the movie. The cover of The Uncanny X-Men #141 is the ultimate choice, some heavy iconic imagery there.
