He was onscreen for like probably 5% of the movie (and I think thats stretching it).

The problem is that there are so many characters in the X-Men Universe...so many relationships and stories to be told both small and big. If they do make an XMen 4 they need to make sure that they focus on showing the relationships between the team members as well as a good movie storyline. Just don't throw random new characters in the mix and not have them interact at all with each other.

Actually (like Gambit being shoehorned into the Wolverine movie after the fact), Angel was only crammed in as part the movie's impetus for "Look, it's our last movie, time to cram in EVERY SINGLE CONCEPT IDEA we never got around to on paper in the first two movies! "
And so, after years of wrangling and rewrite-drops, we finally get a don't-blink Danger Room scene in the first five minutes of the movie. With Sentinels in it.
It took them years to figure both of those out, and we still haven't gotten the Blob yet.

And besides, as already mentioned, X2 was "the gayest ever".
