But they have also said it is a prequel. The director says it's a prequel. Cyclops, Storm, Jean Grey and other major characters have been specifically left out because they are adhering to loose rules.
If they were starting from scratch, don't you'd think they'd want some of the major X-Men to be in their X-Men movie?
Why would they even go back to First Class instead of just starting over with all the components like Spiderman and Batman have?
Contradictions are a result of them trying to keep it a franchise while going in new directions. It's a mess, not a reboot.
