X-Men Days of Future Past: Logical Explanations for Various 'Plot Holes'

This post has major spoilers for the movie.

I have seen the movie and saw many questions online on why certain things in the movie happen seemingly without logic, which seem like major plot holes. I thought of the possible reasons to fill up those holes and listed them all down.


Questions and my answers:

How did Professor X come back from the dead in a wheelchair?
He might have been able to get into Phoenix's mind just before she tore him apart at her childhood home. He programmed/controlled her mind to use her powers to reassemble his body together somewhere far away from the house. Someone spotted the newly reconstructed but wounded Xavier and sent him to the hospital to get treated and wrapped up. Since the memory of his body is one that cannot walk, the reassembled Professor X would also be wheelchair-ridden.

Why does the future Wolverine have metal claws when those got cut off when he was in Japan?
The young Japanese woman that went on to inherit her grandfather's fortunes and become Japan's most powerful and richest woman, might have used the technology and the adamantium left behind by her grandfather to fix Logan's claws as a way to repay his help and restore his 'honour'. The Japanese are good sword makers and they would have no problem fixing Logan's metal claws.

What powers do the Sentinels have from the mutants?

It was mentioned that a scene where Rogue’s power got taken from her to be used for the sentinels was cut from the movie. This is why the sentinels are able to absorb mutants’ powers as well as different mutant immunities to such powers. Charles said that the sentinels are able to adapt to any mutant’s power with the help of Mystique’s DNA, which might mean that the sentinels are able to hold on to the power and immunities from any mutant DNA that was introduced to them, which is why each sentinel can have multiple mutant powers. Mystique’s power might also have been used by the sentinels to disguise as humans so that they could go undercover and attack mutants with the element of surprise. This is similar to the Terminator movies where robots can take on the form of humans by touching them and assassinate in human disguise.

At the end of the movie, how did Logan end up at the school with the main X-Men team back together?
The process to sent Logan back in time to correct the past was successful just when the Sentinels invaded the room where Kitty Pryde was working with Logan for the time-travel mission. Once Kitty Pryde stopped the procedure and Wolverine got severed from the past, the new reality took over in that moment in 2023 and it was a new reality where the school did not face the major problems found in the previous movies. Since mutants are more evolved than humans, they might age much slower than humans so the X-Men would still look pretty young in the final scene.

In the new reality, the young Professor X would have known of the mistakes done in the previous timeline when he accessed Logan's mind such as the mistake of restricting Jean's subconscious when she was young that eventually led to her demise. He chose not to do that in the new reality therefore Jean did not lose control of her mind and therefore did not kill Scott. This is why both of them are alive in the new reality. Jean's striking red hair colour might mean that she has the full powers of Phoenix.

Why did the Major’s eyes turn yellow when he was in the same room as Mystique?
He was probably another shape-shifting mutant that has the same interests as the government. Mystique asks him who he is in the beginning of the movie, hinting that he could be a mutant in disguise as a military officer. The major as seen in the closing scene probably was not Mystique.

Update June 1st: One more question and answer:

How did Rogue get back with Iceman even thought she didn't get to take the gene suppression shot? 
She got the bald headed boy to hide under her bed whenever she and iceman decided to 'get it on'.

The Answers on How to Create and Sustain Happiness Indefinitely

There are many positive psychologists doing many studies about Happiness in the world. But they often ask stupid, superficial, materialistic and heavily distracted people for their opinions on how to achieve Happiness that is why they usually get stupid answers from them that only takes them round and round on a wild goose chase to really understand the nature of Happiness.

http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/significant-results/201308/whats-so-positive-about-positive-psychology

If the positive psychologists would continue to rely on the research data from such stupid worldly people forever then they will forever never get to fully understand Happiness (so this is where I come in).

But at least the positive psychologists have gotten an accurate grouping of the different types of Happiness seen from Hedonic(pleasurable feelings), Eudaimonic(greater good), Chaironic Happiness(spiritual-based Happiness) and prudential Happiness(sense of flow).

Positive psychologists have been trying to understand what really creates Happiness, they have also been searching for the ways to sustain the feelings of Happiness in people by getting them to constantly feel positive about life.

The answers are actually very simple. I have mentioned before that the feelings of Happiness comes from the feelings that come from achieving liberation and feeling liberated from restrictions.

The way to get people to constantly feel positive about life comes from getting them to hold on to a kind of hope that something very liberating and harmonious will happen to them in the future.

When people hold on to such hopes of something positive/harmonious happening to them in the future, they would not be biased to focus on the bad/disharmonious aspects of life in their present but they would be biased to focus more on the positive/harmonious aspects of life. Since they think the future would get better for them, they would therefore start and prepare to increase the positive/harmomious liberating aspects of life in their present while minimizing the negative/disharmonious restrictions currently found around them. They would also focus on treating themselves and others with harmony while they prepare to experience their positive harmonious kind of life in the future. They would therefore be constantly sustaining themselves to feel positive and be happy by focusing on the harmonious and liberating aspects of life that would generate the feelings of happiness.

The level of harmony found in one's future hopes is related to the level of harmony being perceived and practiced in the present.

The Happiness set point of how people normally feel most of the time, can be therefore be changed with the kind of hope held for the future.

If people think that there is a God who would punish them for their sins then they would lead a life where they constantly fear doing wrong things. They would get influenced by the Bible to hate sinful people in order to get to Heaven so they will go on their fanatic mission to try to take down gay people because they thought such a behaviour is their gateway to Heaven. The Christian religion was distorted by the ancient rulers to control people's behaviour and lessen the misbehaving people, it has now only turned to a huge bunch of nonsense.

But if people think that there is an all-understanding and accepting God, then they would not hold themselves accountable for anything they choose to do. They will do what they want with their own lives.

If people believe such things as having the possibility to ascend to a higher dimensional world where they would become beautiful and wouldn't age, they would not be too caught up by the limitations of the materialistic world and influences of the nasty people because they know they would be able to get away from it all eventually and get to go to a beautiful paradise world of immense harmony.

The amount of liberation found in people's lives and the reminder of such would create the onset manifesting feelings of Happiness. People's daily level of positivity that comes from perceiving harmony is dependent/sustained by the level of harmony found in their future hopes.
