Anywho, I believe the general rule is after the events of DOFP, we now have 2 timelines; one which has continued with Apocolpyse, the other is the original trilogy. So the Storm/Jean/Cyclops/etc. in the latest movie doesn't become the Equivalent from the original X-Men movie, i.e. Storm was born later/earlier in one time time compared to the other.
Doesn't explain how Havoc can be 20 years older than his brother and not appeared to have aged since the 1960s.

Fair enough.
"Realistic" may not have been the right term to use, but still. Guys like Magneto and Charles were born at the same time in both timelines (i.e. new Charles in the 1980's would have been the same age as the original Charles in the 80's in the original timeline).
That's why I ask - approximately what year did the Original X-Men take place (i.e. 'filmed in 2000 but with the disclaimer, "In the not-so-distant future."). Are we talking 2010? 2015?
It's a minor issue, but it will just be slightly weird to me if the "new" Magneto and Charles still look fairly young in the next movie (1990's), relative to how the original Charles and Magneto looked in the original X-Men (circa 2010-2015?).
It's a minor detail, but whatever. I think the entire series is awesome regardless.
