X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST<\/a> and APOCALYPSE<\/a> writer\/producer Simon Kinberg<\/strong> spoke with Reason TV’s<\/a> Tracy Oppenheimer<\/strong> about the mass appeal of the X-Men films and why people relate to the characters and real-world themes of persecution, individuality and government programs (like the mutant-hunting Sentinels) going awry.<\/p>\n

“You have sort of the whole pantheon of human experience,” he says in the 5-minute video interview. “There’s always suspicion of large organizations in immense amounts of power, Whether it’s a corporation or a government, or an evil society of mutants. Especially when they are all working together.”<\/p>\n
