Continuity Errors
- In X-Men, Charles tells Logan that he met Erik when he was 17 years old. In X-Men: First Class, Charles meets Erik when both are in their late 20's.
- In X-Men, Charles acts confused as to why he can't find Erik with Cerebro, whilst in X-Men: First Class he witnesses the effects of the helmet.
- The X-Mansion in X-Men: First Class is not the same as the original building in the original trilogy. However, it can be assumed that it was renovated and expanded to serve as a school.
- In X-Men: The Last Stand, Moira MacTaggert is a Scottish doctor working at Muir Island's genetic facility, while in X-Men: First Class, she is an American agent working for the CIA.
- In X-Men: First Class, Moira Mactaggert appears as an early 30 year old woman yet 44 years later she appears roughly the same age in X-Men: The Last Stand.
- In X-Men: The Last Stand, Jean Grey appears as a small child (presumably around the age of eleven or so) in a flashback set in 1986 but in X-Men: Apocalypse set in 1983 she appears as to be much older as a girl in her late teens.
- In X-Men: The Last Stand, Charles was shown to be able to walk in a flashback set in 1986, even though he was paralyzed in 1962 as shown in X-Men: First Class. One could argue that he used the serum developed by Beast, but this wouldn't be logical as he was able to use his psychic powers.
- In X-Men: The Last Stand, Angel appears as a 12 year old boy in a flashback set in 1996 but in X-Men: Apocalypse set in 1983 he appears as a young adult.
