Huge Batch of 'X-Men: Days of Future Past' Posters Are Pretty Stylish

Following yesterday's batch of feaurettes from the set of X-Men: Days of Future Past, a whole batch of photos have surfaced online today. However, since they were discovered by a forum user at Superhero Hype, we're not exactly sure if these are official posters, or just unused concepts, mostly because some of them seem incomplete without studio logos, a release date, etc. Some of them are really stylish, while others are pretty bland. The prominence of Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique is interesting though. Is Warner Bros. just capitalizing on her Hunger Games popularity, or is she just as prominent as Hugh Jackman? Look!
Here's the posters discovered in the forums at Superhero Hype (via ComingSoon):
And here's two worse official posters that Fandango debuted yesterday:
What's really odd to me is that the above official posters feel like they're two random picks out of a bigger batch of characters posters. A few of the other posters also give off the same vibe. If any film was to have a myriad of character posters, the sheer size of the cast of X-Men: Days of Future Past would be justified.
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. The present day X-Men are in danger from a mistake in the past, and Wolverine is sent back in time to fix it in order to avoid a dark, terrifying future timeline. Fox will release the sequel on May 23rd.

And it's great foreshadowing for what may happen to Wolverine in the movie, with him de-materializing, he may be destroyed by a Sentinel at some point, leaving it up to the First Class members to eliminate the threat if they can finally co-exist with one-another. I cannot wait for this film, I expect this will be THE comic-book/superhero movie of 2014.

I wonder...they keep putting Mystique and Wolvie together...are they hinting at some of their history?

As someone who doesn't know too much about X-Men story archs... I see this as capitalizing on Jennifer Lawrence's popularity and pairing her up with the most popular xmen

... I'm a fan, and I don't want that. If I see a guy in the street wearing that I point and laugh
