Greg Alba & Coy Jandreau react to and review X-Men: Days of Future Past – The Rogue Cut (2014), the extended version of Bryan Singer’s acclaimed X-Men epic that unites the original and prequel casts in one of the franchise’s most ambitious storylines. Set in a dystopian future where mutants are hunted by Sentinels, Logan / Wolverine (Hugh Jackman — Logan, The Greatest Showman) is sent back in time to 1973 to prevent the event that triggers humanity’s war against mutants. There, he must unite younger versions of Charles Xavier (James McAvoy — Split, Atonement) and Erik Lehnsherr / Magneto (Michael Fassbender — Inglourious Basterds, Steve Jobs) to stop Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence — The Hunger Games, Silver Linings Playbook) from assassinating Bolivar Trask. The Rogue Cut restores a major subplot involving Rogue (Anna Paquin — True Blood, The Piano), adding new stakes to the future timeline as the X-Men attempt a dangerous rescue mission to keep Kitty Pryde alive and the timeline intact. The film is packed with iconic moments, including Quicksilver’s slow-motion Pentagon breakout (Evan Peters — American Horror Story, WandaVision), Magneto’s stadium-lifting sequence, and the intense Sentinel battles that showcase the full power of the mutant roster. Featuring a massive ensemble including Patrick Stewart (Star Trek, Logan) as Professor X and Ian McKellen (The Lord of the Rings, Mr. Holmes) as Magneto, Days of Future Past blends time-travel storytelling, emotional character arcs, and large-scale action into one of the most beloved entries in the X-Men franchise—enhanced even further in this extended cut. #XMen #Wolverine #HughJackman #DaysOfFuturePast #RogueCut #MarvelMovies #XMenMovies #MovieReaction #FilmReaction #ComicBookMovies #SuperheroMovies #RoadToDoomsday #RoadToAvengersDoomsday #AvengersDoomsday #MovieMarathon #MCU #React #ReactTo #Reaction #MovieCommentary #Commentary Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) Reaction Commentary: https://youtu.be/UNBKLJnA6p8 Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021) Reaction Commentary: https://youtu.be/N0ZkKFSLhl8 Superman (2025) Reaction Commentary: https://youtu.be/zvhETuN_tP0 The Batman (2022) Reaction Commentary: https://youtu.be/1T4g7AwZKNY 0:00 Checking In! 2:08 X-Men Days of Future Past Reaction 35:32 HUEL 37:10 X-Men Days of Future Past Movie Reaction 1:07:57 The Wolverine Movie Commentary Follow Coy Jandreau: https://www.youtube.com/@CoyJandreau https://www.tiktok.com/@coyjandreau?lang=en https://www.instagram.com/coyjandreau/?hl=en https://twitter.com/CoyJandreau Follow Greg Alba: https://www.instagram.com/thegregalba/ https://twitter.com/thegregalba Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ RR Clips & Shorts Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ReelRejectsClips Follow TheReelRejects On The Socials: https://www.instagram.com/reelrejects/ https://www.tiktok.com/@thereelrejects?lang=en https://twitter.com/thereelrejects https://www.facebook.com/TheReelRejects/ Music Used In Ad: Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Happy Alley by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Head Editor: https://www.instagram.com/prapermedia Supervising Producer: https://twitter.com/nerdchronic?lang=en Co-Editor: Greg Alba Co-Editor: John Humphrey Music In Video: Airport Lounge - Disco Ultralounge by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow & Listen to Us Wherever You Get Your Podcasts!! - https://open.spotify.com/show/3XHMwbveiznxSOGxN9XT0M - https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vc3Rhci13YXJzLXRhbGs - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-reel-rejects-tv-movie-recaps/id1616339990 - https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Apocalypse-Podcast/B08JJP58FG

Sir Patrick Stewart and Sir Ian McKellen were performing in a touring production of "Waiting for Godot" when Bryan Singer approached the actors about reprising their respective roles as Professor X and Magneto. According to McKellen, both men were utterly shocked, as they thought they had passed their roles on to James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender, and would never play the characters again. Stewart and McKellen were delighted to return to two of their most popular roles, and to work with the younger actors playing the same characters as well.

The Rogue cut like actually makes sense and that’s what I appreciate, it fills in so many gaps specifically how the sentinels can actually TAKE mutant’s powers like Mystiques genes alone make NO SENSE

The whole subplot of Raven going back to the mansion and destroying Cerebro was added in the Rogue Cut. It was not in the theatrical cut. That's probably why you guys don't remember it. 🤭

The Rogue cut should have been the theatrical version honestly. Can’t wait to watch this today after a workout though. Side note: Greg or Coy, you guys need to drop your workout schedule! Please? Lol

I believe Peter’s little sister is actually Lorna Dane because their mom says “go upstairs and bug your sister.” It’s at least an assumption that the older sister was Wanda

I like how “the rogue cut” explains how the sentinels ended up finding them because of the broken hand that was stuck onto the X jet, because in the theatrical version there’s no explanation to how the sentinels found them.

Three things... 1. I love how the Wolverine cameo in First Class was paid off in this movie. 2. The deleted scene showing the romantic relationship between Wolverine and Storm was cool. 3. The Mystique/Stryker thing at the end is just weird.

i feel like people overlook how brilliant this franchise was for being able to cast great xmen twice in 2 seperate franchises and then also crossover them at the end with this movie and it work so well. being able to cast a perfect magneto and professor x twice and have them crossover on paper sounds impossible
