  • am i the only on that liked origins???

  • fuck logics

  • wait wait wait wait wait we're supposed to ignore x3 and origins? it makes sense, but I want a public statement >:( so everyone knows origins and x3 dont count then we can put a stop to this endless fan debate

  • For me the only problem is The Last Stand and Origins: Wolverine. Honestly, if you take them out, the timeline would be normal.

  • Since Wolverine took place after First Class,he has no memory of him meeting with Xavier and Magneto(because he was hit in the head by and ademantium bullet)

  • Comment removed

  • FOX came up with the solution, ignore wolverine, which is getting a sequel that is a reboot, however that works, and x3 and it all makes sense

  • i've considered first class a reboot of the x men series. i think that they will spawn it's own series

  • @thegroove14 i agree

  • Screw continuity. It's more fun this way XD

  • @IGNentertainment

    Oh and wolverine and x3 aren't supposed to count according to Fox.

    And Wolverine lived through the Civil, WWI, WWII, and Korean war. Do you honestly think he'd remember two random guys who walked into a bar he was at? And according to X2, he got his memory erased in the Weapon X program. So he wouldn't know them anyway. AND Erik didn't go by Magneto until the very end of the movie, so Logan wouldn't have called him Magneto anyway if he HAD remembered them. Get the facts right.

  • @HQBacon actually wolverine lived through vietnam. no korean. otherwise your correct

  • Comment removed

  • Another continuity issue that IGN missed was Moira MacTaggert's age in First Class and the fact that a relatively young actress depicts her in X3.

  • ive got one thing about the wolverine xavier cameo is that since he is able to make people think and see what ever he wants them to he could've made it look like he was standing there even though he wasn't (more then likely on a wheel chair inside the helicopter)

  • @DrWhoDamien

    haha dude nice idea! ^^

  • So yeah, the timeline is screwed, but take a look at this. The way they dress, the vehicles, the music (if you listen to the music when the teen mutants are partying), the manurism, and so many other things suggest that they're in the 2000s which was what really bothered me while watching it. I loved it, but man was it mind-boggling.

  • Wolverine didn't "meet" Xavier and Magneto in First Class. They said one sentence to him, and Wolverine gave them a helpful suggestion (to F themselves) without even turning around to look at them. Who would remember that 40 years later?

  • First Class wasn't a reboot. It was a prequel to the first three films. IGN wouldn't have done this if they knew it was a reboot.

  • Wolverine didn't even look at them. Doen't mean he remembered them because he does better things to everyone. And also his memory was wiped after so he wouldn't have remembered it!!

  • Wolverine dose not remember charles and erik cause his memory was wiped so thats not an error in my opion.

  • Also, the "Wolverine knows Prof X and Magneto, then he doesn't" point is moot because the line they quoted was him asking "What's a Magneto?" yet in the scene in First Class, where he meets them, he's introduced to him as Erik, not as Magneto, so he would still have no reason to know what "a magneto" was. I love it when people get preechy and nitpicky, yet don't bother with even the most basic forms of logic.

  • This is just retarded. First Class was ALWAYS supposed to be a reboot. Thus, the timeline of the other movies doesn't matter, just like you don't see them complaining that the first movies didn't fit the timeline of the comics. Whats next? You gonna nitpick Dark Knight because in the Tim Burton movies, The Joker was the first big supervillain he faced? First Class was a good movie ON ITS OWN, the way it's meant to be viewed, so fuck off.

  • @KaiserSoze679 What he said.

  • stop ruining X-men, reboot it from Original 5 for god sake.

  • @iamjason FOX ruined x-men. end of discussion.

  • And this is why I get so upset and refuse to watch any of these movies ever again! Cmon movie people get it right and do some fucking homework!

  • Hanks Cerebro must have been a different one and Magneto helped him build the other one. They're not truly enemies so they can still help each other out. Did you ever take into notice the gap between First Class and X2? Hank probably found some way to turn human and suddenly got back in X2. And so what if Mystique and Xavier never interact? The films never called for them to meet and they probably have interacted before, during the gap.

  • @darkwarp14 Also the Emma in this movie isn't the same as the one in Wolverine. The one in Wolverine never showed mental powers and she was never called Emma Frost not even in the credits. (cept in the commercial) She's also younger. It's possible that Xavier can walk because it may have just been an illusion so he wont appear weak. Magneto and Xavier have still met each other quite formally even while they were enemies so that can explain Jean Grey.

  • @darkwarp14 Keep in mind this isn't true but these are good reasons that IGNorance left out.

  • As a viewer, I can interpret the x-men-movies world any way I want. So long X3 and Wolverine! Also, why would wolverine remember two guys that walked into a bar and just introduced themselves? The beast thing indeed makes no sense though

  • lol, brilliant and beautifully done.

  • INB4SpecialEditionsFixEverythi­ngAndMakeTheseArgumentsInvalid­

  • you bring up some valid points

    but im guessing both movies are taking place at the same time

  • I wonder Why Was Havok older Then Cyclops when Cyclops is the Oldest Brother

  • i also happened to notice scott summer's younger brother alex is signicantly older than scott

  • IMO i have a feeling in first class 2 it will see charles walking again somehow all the way through and he will have became friends with eric at the end but in wolverine 2 we will see them falling out and seeing charles get hurt and put in a wheelchair

  • I guess not a lot of people know what a reboot is. What's next you gona do a timeline on the batman movies lol.

  • @Dragonct2001 X-Men first class is not a reboot its a Prequel....get it right. Prequel means a movie that takes place BEFORE the other previously released movies. So in essences the timelines SHOULD add up, which they don't. I'm glad someone posted this video because I felt like I was the only one who realized this.

  • @Shadwassasin true but most of the continuity problems can be easily fixed

  • @Shadwassasin Aha! But what if it's a "PREBOOT?"

  • @GodofFrankie you dont make a reboot...or a "preboot" using the same wolverine....case closed =P

  • @Shadwassasin Phooey.

  • Comment removed

  • i actually believe that the part where the video talks about Wolverine is technically incorrect. Just because Erik and Charles introduced themselves doesn't mean he knows them and the fact that he doesn't know who Magneto (Erik) is in the original films doesn't mean the cameo is inherently wrong because he took an adamantium bullet to the head which erased all his memories so he wouldn't know who Erik and Charles are anyway

  • thumbs up if you did a youtube search for this to avoid ign's player

  • How does the last one make sense? He didn't know the name of, or even look at them in the bar, and they've aged 40 years. Clean up your s$&@ IGN!! jkjkjkjk :)

  • All the x-men movies before are non canon cause First Class was the best , im not even joking - Since First class was so awesome, Marvel stated that all the others were non canon

  • Marvel stated a while ago that the first three x-men movies, as well as the first hulk movie, as well as the fantastic four movies were set in a "different universe" than the rest of their recent films. They might've also said that about the first three spiderman movies; can't recall.

  • Know something,X-Men First Class came to clean up and make these facts more "understandable"

  • Nobody cared about the continuity problems from X-Men: Wolverine. We all just pretend it doesn't exist

  • Everything but the Charles age thing can be explained its a prequel

  • they deliberately wanted to cancel out Wolverine and X3 because they were disappointed with them. but yes the issues with X1 and X2 are correct.

  • I personally felt this should of been better as a reboot to the new franchise. I just know when the planed sequels are made, they'll keep fucking with the old movies.

  • What a waste of space.

    Nobody ever said X-Men FC was in complete continuity with the other films!

  • the only one that can be explained is the wolverine cause of the bullet he took to the head causing his memory loss

  • Ok the new x-men dvd kinda proved this is a prequel

  • haha...i loved first class..but just hated the whole timeline thing..other than that its a good movie.

  • If they put footage from the original x-men trilogy in the trailer, put Rebecca romjn and Hugh jackman in the film. Used the same mansion, and reshot the magneto scene how can you call this a separate series. It's a reboot with the same timeline

  • Best X-Men movie ever. Which isn't saying much. Not the best comic series anyway. I liked this flick way better than all the others.

  • @mastersppd it was probably the only good xmen movie i saw the others were kinda bad

  • anyone else tired i comic book movie reboots? Or for that matter most reboots in general. The only reboot i can think of that i enjoyed watching were the new batman flims.

  • I consider this movie a reboot. It's like the guy who made this did not watch the other movies at all.

  • The Wovlerine one is wrong in two respects. One, he never turned around or knew Magneto/Xavier's name, and plus even if he did, he would have lost that memory when he loses his memory at the end of Origins Wolverine.

  • u saw things i have never noticed....i noticed the walking part, and the woverine thing.....buyt i never though of emma frost.....i have seen all of the movies like 4 dozen times each and this still blows my mind.....

  • @werewoflluva emma frost is a totally different character in first class. wolverine lost his memory and xavier walking can be fixed

  • This is a shame it got messed up :\ Some makers need to look into prequels more carefully. (Or not make them at all George Lucas).

  • they jus goin to make the next xman movies off the first class....so the first 3 xman movies dont even matter like that new spider man movie??? WTF??

  • the only one you got wrong was the wolverine bit he never seen prof x or magneto he never turned around in first class

  • nice you guys are right lol

  • Thank you my god that was so hard trying to explain that to my friends six months ago

  • Wolverine has amnesia and could be as old as the pyramids, they can fuck with his time line all they want.

  • I agree with Cuda. I saw this as a fresh start to the series. It was much better than any of the previous X Movies too!

  • Always saw first class as a whole different movie myself. The wolverine Cameo was off to me. They should had just rebooted the franchise. First class is way above and beyond the original ones by far

  • WHO CARES ABOUT TIMELINES?? This was the best xmen movie :D

  • Lawl mind fucked.

  • this is hilarious first class was better than the other one

  • fuck time lines u want some thing hard try zeldas !

  • @gogoparrot skyward sword, ocarina of time, splits to flood and tp dimensions. yeah its real fucked up

  • @gogoparrot Only one thing can correct the Legend of Zelda timeline and thats the multiverse theory. Maybe they should create a game where Link fights in multiple universes to produce the chain of events which lead to the whole "Hero of time" stories passed down through the generations.

  • @gogoparrot the most epic timeline of all XD because not only does it have one but two timelines to make you have many 'wtf' moments.

  • @gogoparrot

    I'd actually like to see that. :D

  • Fix ur grammar

  • he forgot to mention the adition of nightcrawler in this movie seeings how he's mystiques son in the way far off future

  • @Riku2099 nightcrawler wasn't in first class. The red dude who has nightcralwer's power is his dad I think.

  • There was something else I was wondering isn't Havok Cyclops's little brother?

  • @Fallenknight155 WAIT REALLY WTF! I NEED SOME COMIC BOOKS CAUSE I NEVER READ THE COMICS

  • @Fallenknight155 Yes, he is. I heard they were going to make him his father in future films. WTF?

  • didnt wolverine get shot in the head with an amnesia bullet after xavier tried to recruit him

  • Magneto and Xavier meet while running from the Nazi's in Russia when they're 17.

    Magneto helped make the one you see in the other movies that being the finished.

    Beast used a device that makes him look human, he explains in the other movies.

    She was taught by Magneto to cover her thoughts, Xavier is a telepathic

    Emma ages differently than the other mutants

    Due to a event with Sabertooth Wolverine looses his memory.

    Read the comics then you may understand hell watch the animated series..

  • wolverine does not remember professor x and magnet cause he got shot in the head with an adamantium bullet in wolverine

  • its not a reboot retards its a prequel

  • That was Bad Ass

  • first class is a prequel. but they are rebooting it in the sense that it will have two sequels but it is a part of the timeline. otherwise they would not use the same mansion, reshoot the scene from x1, and hugh jackman and rebecca romjn wouldnt have cameoed. you guys take reboot the wrong way

  • This is why marvel needs the movie rights.

  • My fellow mutants... the real enemy is out there!

  • My fellow mutants... the real enemy is out there!

  • Im glad someone else noticed these mistakes

  • haha i know they should just say that first class is a reboot, thatll cover everything lol

  • Don't forget in origins they completely fucked up deadpool. Deadpool. The merc with a mouth. Not a radio controlled guy who has no mouth. Bloody fox… 

  • It's a reboot

  • beast is not it X2 is he?

  • @CALInventory he makes a cameo. search it.:)

    

  • @saif0316 oh my god it dosent make any sence aaaaahhh

  • none of this matters cause first class was the best xmen moive and i hope they make a sequal of that rebout, so xman can continue to fuck with your timeline

  • @helloimtom100 YOU MUST OF NEVER SEEN AN XMEN MOVIE BEFORE BECAUSE FIRST CLASS SUCKED BALLS

  • @kingmar2009 You must have seen a different movie then I did. Considering how awful X3 and Origins were First Class was amazing. Also it gives more to the fact Charles and Erik have similar goals but are willing to go down much different paths to reach it. Plus a reboot is welcome in my book to get rid of X3 and Origins.

  • @helloimtom100 saying firstclass was the best xmen movie does say much at all seeing it still sucked

  • @helloimtom100 wow. you're such a lame douche. and it's spelled "REBOOT" you idiot.

  • @helloimtom100 bro..it sucked ass even had bad actors except 2 of them lol it was so lame

  • @helloimtom100

    x men first class is a good movie!! but very diferent from the original comic!!!

  • @helloimtom100 First class was formulaic, predictable, full of unnecessarily overblown special effects sequences, and specifically designed so that idiots would think it was the best xmen movie.

  • @jkeuwk But it was.

  • @jkeuwk But it was.

  • ok wolverine not remembering them isnt wrong. If someone came up to you for a second, said their names and you told them to $^&^ off, would you remember them, their names, etc 30 or so years later

  • Alot of stupid points in here but there are some valid ones. I was under the impression origins took place after first class, and i dont think that was emma frost in origins

  • Ok guys i really need this song . . like need. Please reply!!

  • @killjoy8244 Half the man by kopius few

  • @acberger1 THANKS SO MUCH!

  • @killjoy8244 No problem. when i heard it in the trailer I needed it too haha. its a sick track

  • Magneto and xavier approach wolverine in first class, so he knows about them. then in wolverine origins he gets shot in the head and loses his memory. after that he goes back to canada where he eventually has a run in with rogue and then he re meets him. or thats how i see it. but then again why didnt xavier be like oh yeah bro we met before

  • @ImABeast54321 also the fact they met for like 5 seconds

  • @helloimtom100 yea i was thinking of that but xavier is a mental beast so im sure he'd remember

  • Fail there is a reason this is a reboot you fucking twats.

  • wow they really messed that up lol worse than i thought

  • LMAO you guys addressed literally every flaw, and don't get me wrong, I loved First Class, but thank god someone called this out. Really, first class is a reboot, even if the studios say different

  • so mystique grew up when with xavier and they were like brothers but anyway she din´t care to almost kill him with that venom on cerebro in X men?

  • WHERE DO I FIND THIS MUSIC?!

  • @trebal747 half the man by kopius few

  • @acberger1 Awesome! Thanks!

  • iits a prequal/reboot maybe?

  • In the comic books Havoc is Cyclops younger brother. In the movie Havoc appeared to be a teenager in 1962.

  • they really fucked the xmen story line

  • Aye what's the song?

  • in Wolverine movie he takes a bullet in the head and doesn't do anything

    in X2 he takes a bullet from the cops and falls down for 5min unconscious

  • Wait i dnt remeber beast in x2

  • @TheRedtarantula theirs a scene of hank looking all human talking to a senate or something on the news

  • @TheRedtarantula

    at the bar when mystique seduces that guard, in the Tv there´s an interview with Hank

  • Lol

  • maybe its a different fucking movie??

  • @MrTaylorthehippie with hugh jackman as wolverine, and a reused scene from the 1st movie, as well as an entire plot based off 10 seconds from that same scene....no

  • They really should have thought this through. The most obvious thing that even I caught was how he became paralyzed from the waist down in First Class, but was still standing in Wolverine. Either way, they should have tried to keep all the movies connected.

  • First: The producers of Xmen: First class says Disregard Wolverine and Last stand. Because, well, they sucked. Most of the 'plot-holes' in FC are tied with those two films, right off the bat. The Cerebro thing didn't make sense to be either, but as discussed, they could have a temporary alliance later on, much like in X2. Also, the dialogue that states that Xavier met Lencher when he was 17 could have been a lie to protect Logan. Or maybe it was figurative. Who knows.

  • you forgot that in wolverine xavier was also bald

  • the latest film is separate from the previous films what is why it doesn't follow the story.

  • IGN its two different on going series do to fox fucked up the first 3 movies 

  • Whats the name of the song anybody?!

  • @HriosKeithy I wanted to know too lol

  • Not to mention Havoc...

  • Maybe Hank has hair departure every year or something....must be shitty to clean up all that hair tho...

  • You forgot Moira Mactaggert having a Scottish accent in the Last Stand and she was a doctor, but in First class she was an American CIA Agent.

  • THIS ISNT CALL OF DUTY WTF...

  • i thought first class was a reboot...

  • @HearTBreaKiD023 It basically is. Hopefully the sequel clears things up.

  • This is all explained.

    First Class was going to be a reboot, and ended up being a stand alone film. It has nothing to do with the others.

  • @TrinityofTriforce If it had nothing to do with the others, why do they have the same actors reprising their roles? If it wasn't supposed to be cannon with X1-X3, they shouldn't have used Jackman/Romain cameos.

  • @jasoncporter

    For cameo and humor purposes. Why shouldn't Jackman have played Wolverine in the film? Can you imagine someone else?

    This would be one of the reasons most of the cast were completely new actors.

    They explicitly stated that it was a stand-alone film. This is why critics and fans alike both need to to do research into a movie before commenting on it.

  • And charles swore to never read her mind...so he wouldnt sense her in that movie...i think

  • Ummm...he was blue and furry in X2 and last stand

  • What's the song? anyone know?

  • Mind fuck the series

  • Huh, it's almost like they dont care about the integrity of the marvel universe and just want to make money. Strange...

  • and if that's not emma in the Wolverine movie why is scott a teenager then? if they too are supose to have the same age or almost the same age same as Ororo, and in X-men origins: Wolverine they show us a kid storm, and again they show us a kid storm in first class

  • lol, i got an xmen first class ad for this vid

  • First class is not supposed to be in the same timeline as the other films, its a completly different story that will be carrying on from first class. Which im excited about seeing as First class took x men seriously.

  • ign,this video looks like it was made by a 12 years old,seriously(it reminded me of when im "video surfing" & find a lot of worthless videos like this one.)

  • IGN YOU FAIL!!!! First Class is obviously a different story tangent..So why are you comparing it to the other movies?? Its a reboot right? And why do we have to find something wrong with the best movie of the franchise in the first place..leave it alone Im jus happy someone did it right FINALLY!!!

    Thanks Matthew Vaughn!

  • Who cares if first class has another timeline. For me it is a completely new storyline wich I don't associate with the previous films.
