Movie Critics Thread

I finally saw X-Men: Days of Future Past last night. Freakin' awesome!

One question though...

How come Professor X has his original body in the future? I remember him being disintegrated in X3, and I know that his consciousness was transferred into that brain dead patient -- so how does he still look like his pre-disintegrated self? Have I missed something?

Take your pick:

a) The brain-dead patient was Professor X's twin brother.
b) The brain-dead patient was a shapechanger
c) After awaking the Professor went and visited the Morlock known as Masque who made the new body look like his old one.
d) Professor X mentally projects an image of his old body so people recognise him
e) The film makers decided to not bother explaining it
