In reality that’s perfectly fitting because it’s exactly how the comics are. They jump all over the map. If anything you’ve remained perfectly consistent about how weird those books are.
SINGER: Days of Future Past began with sushi. Me and Jason Taylor, who runs my company, and Kinberg have sushi at this great place in LA. We sat there and he said “How do we get all these casts combined?” and I said to Simon “Time Travel,” and he’s like “What?” and I said “Yeah, it’s in the comic book, you can do it! Time Travel! You guys go do it, but it’s time travel! I’ll produce” because I was already tied as a producer anyway so it didn’t matter. So they went and started doing a draft, once it came back to me because Matthew couldn’t do it, it evolved quite a bit. But yeah, it began with that conversation where I just threw out it’s a tenant, and you’re right, Aliens are a tenant. I could take X-Men to space, which brings me right back to Guardians of the fucking Galaxy. I could find myself on a giant space station. With the M’Kraan Crystal and the whole fucking thing with mutants. By the way that sounds like something I’m going to circle back to in about six years.
