Like most comic book based movies these days, X-Men: Days Of Future Past has a post-credits scene that tees up the next movie, teasing events and characters that will play into 2016s X-Men: Apocalypse. <\/p>\n
If youve never read the comic books the movie may be based on, you were probably left scratching your head harder than that Thanos reveal mid-credits in The Avengers. And if you have read the comics? Well, chances are, you may still have been scratching your head. <\/p>\n
So heres everything you need to know about the Days of Future Past post-credits scene, and why its important for the future. <\/p>\n
MASSIVE SPOILERS PAST THIS POINT. <\/p>\n
Okay, brief recap of the scene for those of you who were left stupefied as you exited the theater. The camera reveals a man in a cloak standing on a sandy dune. Thousands of followers are chanting his name, bowing to him. Slowly, its revealed that, with his hands raised, hes building the ancient pyramids with his mind. The camera zooms around to reveal a teenager whose skin is completely grey. <\/p>\n
Huhbuhwha? <\/p>\n
First of all, lets explain what those followers were chanting: they were saying the teenagers name, En Sabah Nur. In the comics, thats the human name of Apocalypse, a nearly 5,000-year-old mutant, the first one ever in recorded history. <\/p>\n
As a kid, Nur learned through enslavement that the world was all about survival of the fittest. With his massive powers, he quickly grew to prominence and eventually was worshipped as a god by the Clan Akkaba regular humans and most likely the people bowing down to Nur in the post-credits scene. <\/p>\n
Before we get to the next part, its important to understand what Nurs powers are and thats basically all of them. Nur is strong, fast, invulnerable, can fly and teleport, is able to change his bodys form at will, create force-fields and destructive blasts of energy, and can manipulate and move objects with his mind. Oh, and hes also immortal. <\/p>\n
