 I was content just talking about two of my favorite superhero films to date with this episode's a bit special It goes beyond the traditional ones beyond That's right. Greg fucking Miller's here today. Let's get started Before we begin I want to point out that this is less of a feud actually and more of just appraising of both these films That being said I'm gonna defend days of future past simply to give my co-host a run for his money That's cute too bad. My movie is better. I love x2 and that's mainly due to the stellar cast of characters Obviously both films have professor X and Magneto, but in X2 we get a much larger dose of the season actors in DOFP Short for days of future past we get double the flavor and double the gum here Not only are Gandalf and Jean-Luc Picard back, but so are their counterparts played by James McAvoy McAvoy, Macarena, it doesn't matter, and Michael Fassbender In fact most the veterans are back with the likes of Storm, Colossus, and Kitty Pride kicking all sorts of sentinel ass Yeah, their parts are minor though and the new class just isn't as exciting It's a plan words. This script even knows these guys aren't that good as Havoc is reduced to a single scene and Banshee Was removed altogether. They had to make room for Jay Law to steal more time We both know that Miss Rebecca Romain Stamos is the better mystique. It's just Rebecca Romain. There's no Stamos She will always be married to Uncle Jesse. She will always be Mrs. Rebecca Uncle Jesse. They separated years ago. Always Jesus, okay. I actually agree with you. I think Rebecca Romain is the superior mystique Jennifer Lawrence just looks like Jennifer Lawrence with blue makeup on It didn't help that half the damn movie Fox felt like she needed to be in Jay Law form Why would she ever shapeshift from a male officer to a female one right in the middle of the Army base? It's total trailer bait I'm not sure you know how feuds work. Are you new with this? I'm gonna move on and quickly quick silver Lee worst Gregway ever Evan Peters from American Horror Story was simply awesome to watch. Did you say Gregway? Yeah, it's like a segue, but it's more clever because I'm using my forget it realized I don't care the prison break sequence alone is worth the price of it Mish and it rivals May beats the nightcrawler sequence from X2 Nothing beats nightcrawler from X2. Alan Cumming was spot-on and gave us a nightcrawler that I fear we'll never see again Hugh Jackman's all sorts of awesome in DOFB. He's more badass than X2 need I remind you of the school range You picked the wrong house, bub. It's the same place We see Colossus armor up alongside Iceman who are both better in future past We get to see a fully formed Iceman who was previously just teased at us in the last two go rounds Just ass play before ass play That's where you went with it new characters like blink a walking portal gun and Bishop were great Additions to the film they really shine in their short parts plus we get Tyrion Lannister in this movie You do know his real name's Peter Dinklage, right? No, I'm pretty sure he's still Tyrion in days He's actually a crossover character. This is a crossover franchise with Game of Thrones Wherein he has to bring balance to Winterfell who his family has betrayed and basically ruined By enslaving all mutant kind so off the mark. It's incredible Days of future past did the impossible it managed to make time travel easy to understand Even with all the craziness going on and the jumping between past and present things always managed to stay very simple to follow X2 didn't have to worry about making a complex story easily digestible Instead of just focused on giving us a very tight script with an amazing amount of character development build up such as Dark Phoenix Who was entirely ruined in X3 and then saved in DOFP? X3 never happened Exactly We also get to understand Logan's history We see characters like Pyro become evil and we learn that Bobby's parents namely his brother our total douchebags There are so many side stories going on It's really a testament to good storytelling that it was all able to flow together as well as it did the new X-Men film Was given a tremendous task a tremendous trash if you must Associate the new class with the old one Brian Singer and his writers did this and then some Fixing issues with the universe and setting up further installments was the cherry on the cock Cherry on the cock Is are we is this done yet? Can I leave round three wink? X2 has more action than John Stamos on a typical weekend wishes to say a lot Again with Stamos We mentioned the Nightcrawler introduction, but it's worth rehashing still an awesome scene to behold and it sets up the film Sensationally I say sensationally when I run out of positive adjectives Thanks scar, but a shiny new era is tiptoeing Nero And it's one that contains Sentinel combat Hugh Jackman naked fighting Jennifer Lawrence of Arabia slide attacks and much much more X-Men United has some truly orgasmic moments a tornado chase a Manchin attack a lover's quarrel with Jean Grey and Cyclops and an extremely cool fight with Wolverine and Lady Death Strike X2 came out in 2003 and although the effects still look pretty damn nice They are a bit weathered they're a bit aged and unfortunately that's one wine that doesn't taste better over time and that rhymed Is that a crime the fresh coat of paint future gave us as a welcome treat one I can certainly snack on for years and years Everything from the clothing swaps in the past to Xavier sexy hover chair just sits nicely in my tumbly Okay, so just to be sure we're on the same page You are some version of Winnie the Pooh in this scenario gobbling up scenes from the new X-Men film. That's correct. Yes, I Would like this to be done and now you sound like my wife when we're making love, but I can assure you We've only just begun This one's actually a wash This is a wash indicator because both of these scores were done by the same composer John Ottman John Otterman is like half-man half-Otter. Wouldn't this whole feud be a wash then since both were directed by Brian Singer? They're similar and great scores. Okay You really are not good at this are you? Both of these films are now in my always adapting top 10 superhero list They're actually in the one and two spot right next to each other where they belong and while I've already stated that x2 is one of my Favorite films days is just a crumb better just a morsel better Eat that up There's no arguing that days of future passes a damn fine movie But upon viewing I could not help but notice how many callbacks it made to its older brother x2 The whole film is essentially a big tribute to a star that isn't close to dying out It's a star that's getting more and more powerful with age and I hope these newer generations appreciate it like we did Bottom line is this who you gonna trust a man such as myself Who's spent the the better half of three years establishing a web show community as a movie critic? Or someone like Greg Miller who at one point in time gave uncharted three to ten out of ten when we all know Uncharted 2 is the superior vehicle This is obvious and now we come to the heart of them That's what this was all about you son of a bitch you lure me on this show with empty promises of hot wings But you just want to debate reviews from my uncharted three and uncharted two were both great games confirmed game feuds with Adam and Greg Coming soon Coming never well this was fun But now it's time to get down a business as I've I've been told kids say tell us what your favorite X-Men is in the Comments below unless it's first class then don't even bother because it's overrated bullshit there I said it I said what everybody else was thinking now Greg Why don't you take this opportunity now that everybody's pissed to plug your stuff? I'm Greg Miller And I'm all over IGN comm come catch my daily show knockoff up at noon every Monday We have cool interviews every week Podcasts beyond every Tuesday the number one PlayStation podcast in the world and all the stuff I do on YouTube then come follow me on Twitter at game over Greggy and congratulate me on kicking Adam's ass in this feud I want to thank you for coming on Greg.
