New X-Men: Days Of Future Past Clip Shows Off Quicksilver's Moves
In a surprising twist, most of the early word out of X-Men: Days of Future Past screenings has been that Quicksilver (Evan Peters), that oft mocked, silver-haired superspeedster mutant, actually steals the show with his one big scene in the film.
This new clip shows off some of that scene.

More interesting than the out-of-context bits and pieces is the fact that his name is listed as Peter Maximoff, just slightly off from his "real" name, Pietro Maximoff. Is this how Fox got around not being able to use that name in that convoluted legal standoff with Marvel Studios? They get to use Quicksilver, but not Pietro.
Reportedly, it's vice versa for Marvel – their version of this character can be called Pietro, but not Quicksilver. We'll see if that's the case when Age of Ultron rolls around next summer.
