* Quicksilver is still a big ProgressiveRock fan because he sports a Music/{{Rush}} T-shirt; in ''Days of Future Past'', he wore a Music/PinkFloyd one (a Floyd poster is still in the basement). He also continues to be a video game enthusiast (although he has moved on from ''VideoGame/{{Pong}}'' and is seen playing ''VideoGame/PacMan'').

** Jean Grey uses her psychic powers on Wolverine to access his suppressed memories, which echoes what her original timeline counterpart did in ''X1''.
** Jean has a "nightmare" about the end of the world. It recalls the premonition her older counterpart had in the [[Film/X2XMenUnited original timeline]] that "something bad is supposed to happen."
** Moira and Raven accompany the X-Men on their mission just as they did [[Film/XMenFirstClass 21 years earlier]].
** [[spoiler:When Jean unleashes her full powers on Apocalypse, she's surrounded by a fiery Phoenix.]]
** When Jean [[spoiler:rebuilds Xavier's mansion with her powers]], the shot is framed remarkably like TheStinger for ''Days of Future Past'', which showed [[spoiler:Apocalypse doing the same thing with a pyramid, albeit on a grander scale]].
** For the first time, Creator/JamesMcAvoy's Professor X is bald and dressed exactly like Creator/PatrickStewart's Xavier.
** Erik and Charles's final dialogue ("Doesn't it ever wake you up in the middle of the night...") is taken verbatim from their last scene in the [[Film/XMen1 first film]]. Moreover, Lehnsherr's black turtleneck was last seen in ''Film/XMenFirstClass''.
** When Erik departed after the climax of ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'', his last words to Charles were a sorrowful "Goodbye, old friend." In this film, Charles says the same thing to Erik [[spoiler:when the latter declines the former's offer to stay at the school and teach and leaves, only this time with a much warmer tone]].
** [[Film/XMenTheLastStand Again]], there is a Danger Room scene featuring Sentinels. Only this time, they're the 1973 ones from ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''.

* Xavier confides to Jean that it wasn't so long ago that he was plagued by everyone else's pain--this refers to his severe depression between 1963 and 1973, which had caused him to lose control of his psychic abilities.
* When Jean tells Professor X that she's afraid she'll hurt someone, there is a glimmer of recognition in his eyes--he remembers what he saw of [[Film/XMenTheLastStand the Phoenix]] in Wolverine's memories in 1973.

Peter had glanced at it ("What is this Gifted Youngsters place?") and then dropped it on the floor after he was done rummaging through Xavier's wallet. Charles had retrieved the card, and either gave it to the young man before they parted ways, or Maximoff stole it from him as a souvenir.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbJwFE319Yk Scott's teacher]] lectures her students about the world's first public exposure to mutants in 1973, [[Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast via their appearance at the Paris Peace Accords and Magneto's attempted assassination of President Nixon]].
* Nightcrawler is dressed in circus attire during the fight club scene; he was a CircusBrat before he met the X-Men in ''X2''. Moreover, Mystique's [[http://ultraimg.com/images/imagef6c5a.jpg sexy dress]] is a variation of her disguise when she seduced a prison guard. Her black leather jacket is also similar.
* [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CfnMzOdUEAE5638.jpg:large Professor X]] [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Cgu3qKOUUAEJilv.jpg:orig reads]] a passage from ''Literature/TheOnceAndFutureKing'' to his class, which is the exact [[http://40.media.tumblr.com/e42618bfbd7b9075887b9bcd5d1217eb/tumblr_o5dkwu4TW21uefh6go2_1280.jpg same edition]] an incarcerated Erik had in ''X2''.
* Xavier hasn't lost a smidgen of his vanity from his [[Film/XMenFirstClass youth]] because he still loves his hair and is a ProudBeauty once more. He's fond of gradient lenses for his sunglasses because his latest pair also shares this feature with the one he had owned in the '70s.
* [[http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4k6e0w In this featurette,]] the elegant chess set in the X-Mansion is identical to the one Charles and Erik played on the former's plane in ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''.
* Alex was a JerkJock to Hank in ''Film/XMenFirstClass'', and even though Havok is around 38 years old in 1983, he hasn't lost his mocking attitude because he [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ag884lGGXU4 pokes fun at Beast's blue, furry form.]]
* Xavier confides to Jean that it wasn't so long ago that he was plagued by everyone else's pain--this refers to his severe depression between 1963 and 1973, which had caused him to lose control of his psychic abilities.
* When Jean tells Professor X that she's afraid she'll hurt someone, there is a glimmer of recognition in his eyes--he remembers what he saw of [[Film/XMenTheLastStand the Phoenix]] in Wolverine's memories in 1973.
* Although Charles had given up his womanizing ways a long time ago, his attraction to Moira hasn't diminished in the slightest.
* Moira remains passionate about her career at the CIA, and her interest in mutant issues is ongoing. Even though she's missing memories of Xavier from 1962, she reads his papers on genetics.
* When Raven asks Hank how is he going to get the plane out of the hangar, he says he will make an entrance through the basketball court (exactly where it was shown rising up from in ''[=X1=]'', and mentioned in dialogue by Stryker in ''[=X2=]'').
* It turns out that Quicksilver had kept Professor X's business card from ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''. Peter had glanced at it ("What is this Gifted Youngsters place?") and then dropped it on the floor after he was done rummaging through Xavier's wallet.

He also continues to be a video game enthusiast (although he has moved on from VideoGame/{{Pong}} and is seen playing VideoGame/PacMan).
* In ''The Rogue Cut'', Ms. Maximoff had consumed alcohol while watching TV in the middle of the day. A decade later, she's holding a drink during daytime while talking to her son.
* Mystique and Stryker strongly dislike each other because of their confrontations in 1973.
* Quicksilver tells Mystique that he had met Magneto ten years ago, but he had no idea at the time that the man was his father. Peter was talking about the Pentagon prison break in ''Days of Future Past''.
* Charles apologizes to Moira for erasing parts of her memory back in [[Film/XMenFirstClass 1962]].
