Trailer Tuesday - X-Men: Days of Future Past

This week's Trailer Tuesday is dedicated to the first trailer for 2014's X-Men: Days of Future Past. This trailer was released last week and has me even more excited for the upcoming Marvel film. Check it out here:

Words cannot describe how incredible this film will be. Yes, I choose to be completely optimistic with the outcome of this film. Because we all know that this could also go completely WRONG. But I am hoping that director Bryan Singer wouldn't tackle this complicated storyline without having a good story to back it up.

In one of the most META films to be released in the past few years, Days of Future Past is a sequel to X-Men: The Last Stand, X-Men: First Class, and The Wolverine. Yep, it's a sequel to THREE movies. And on top of that, the film will feature stars from all three movies. How is this possible, you might be wondering. Well, the film will feature two time lines that will, eventually, cross. So you will get to see both wonderful portrayals of Professor X and Magneto: James McAvoy and Sir Patrick Stewart as Professor X and Michael Fassbender and Sir Ian McKellan as Magneto. Amazing.

Other stars from the franchise returning include: Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry, Jennifer Lawrence, Anna Paquin, Ellen Page, Shawn Ashmore, and Nicholas Hoult.

The only unfortunate thing about this upcoming film is that both Cyclops and Jean Grey will not be featured as both of their characters were killed off (wrongly so) in X-Men: The Last Stand.

If the trailer doesn't get you hyped up for the upcoming Marvel film, check out the promotional posters that has been released:
