X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014)

Everything Actioncast

This week on the Everything Actioncast, Zach and Chris send their minds 10 years into the past to discuss X-Men: Days of Future Past for its 10th anniversary.

The follow-up to X-Men: First Class, Days of Future Past combined the new cast introduced in Matthew Vaughn's movie with the OG Fox X-Men cast for a battle across time as Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) gets his consciousness sent back to 1973 to prevent the events that lead to a dark future where mutants (and their human allies) are hunted by the ruthless robots known as Sentinels. Zach and Chris talk about how terrible the Sentinel design is, the still incredible Quicksilver (Evan Peters) slo-mo sequence, the fun bits of alternate history, how exactly Hank's (Nicolas Hoult) serum gives Charles (James McAvoy) back the ability to walk, the Timecopesque implications of the ending scene and more.

X-Men: Days of Future Past is available to stream on Max. Next week, we're diving into Walter Hill's "rock n roll fable" Streets of Fire, which is turning 40.
