X-Men: Days of Future Past

I went to see Days of Future Past by myself yesterday afternoon, at the 1:15 PM 2D Digital showing. Or, rather, 1:45, due to 30 minutes of previews, and random commercials.

Due to a particularly urgent need, (four glasses of tea before going since it was 90 degrees, you figure it out) I left the minute the end credits began. I already knew the gist of what happened in the end credits scene, and I located a low quality version of it a couple hours ago on Youtube.

Without spoiling (spoilers are welcome in the comments, though) anything, I will say that I loved it.

I think I'm going to go try to see it this afternoon while I'm trying to flip my sleeping schedule. So, I may be a little loopy, but I figure that could only help an X-Men flick. : )

I enjoyed First Class, but I think the franchise is so ingrained in my childhood that I'll never be really satisfied with these adaptations. It was the first comic series and real story line I ever followed. Rogue and Gambit were my first star-crossed lovers. And after Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Gambit/Bobby Drake was some of the first fic I read.

I loved it too and would enjoy chatting about it!

I haven't been able to find any LJ comms dedicated to it. :(
