Does new X-Men: Days of Future Past featurette reveal too much?

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

As we edge closer to the release date of Bryan Singer's return to the world of mutants, clips have been steadily pouring in, giving us tiny glimpses into the characters of X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST. This particular featurette has a lot of material you've seen before (if you've frequented previous clips) but also sprinkles behind-the-scenes quotes from the actors, as well as bits of scenes you haven't seen before.  If you're up for it, I'd warn that there might be potential spoilers . . . but then again, when you're dealing with time travel, aren't spoilers thrown out the window at that point?

Take a look:

It's a delicate balance to show off clips for an upcoming film, and then over-saturation.  The irony isn't lost on me, in that I may be directly contributing to that, but I'm curious to know how you all feel about clips beyond trailers.  Do you usually watch each and every one, or would you prefer to go into a movie with a "clean slate"?  At what point does it potentially ruin the experience of watching a film for the first time?  After all, if a movie is great, shouldn't it hold up to repeat viewings, let alone seeing the same clips?  Hit us up with your thoughts!

X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST will arrive in theaters May 23, 2014.
