"The mutant threat is the defining issue of our time. We can choose to stem the impending tide of extinction or we can stand by passively and allow it to wash away any remnants of our species." ...

On Friday of Comic-Con, we reported the appearance of Trask Industries protesting mutants, with the bonus of the actual head of a Sentinel Mark 1 as part of the display.
That display also guided people to Trask Industries' website, which at the time was merely foreboding as it prepared to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of its existence.
And so a lot more has now cropped up, and this ingenious tie-in to next summer's X-Men: Days of Future Past directed by Bryan Singer now gives us a little more direction.
The Sentinels are VERY active, and have apparently been sold to governments for decades. But we haven't actually seen them, aside from a glimpse of the Danger Room in X-Men: The Last Stand. So what has gone so terribly wrong? Tie this in to the mid-credits scene from The Wolverine, and you have to wonder -- did the timestream somehow go tremendously out of whack?
Well, of course it did, by the very title of the film. But we also know we're getting the time traveling mutant Bishop and... it doesn't matter. We're getting a great actor, Peter Dinklage, possibly in scenes with Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen. We're ready to time travel forward a year to see it NOW.
Okay, we'll wait. But the mutant threat is only growing...
