  • We're finishing off the Wolverine Trilogy with what's considered its strongest entry, Logan. A reflection on aging, loss, grief, parenthood and what it means to stab a bunch of people with your clone daughter. Terrific performances all round and an incredible ending to Hugh Jackman's tenure as the titular character. It's a shame we'll never see him again because he died.

    It is crazy that Wolverine has been in 10 movies and his arc in 5 of them is someone asking for his help and him going "I'm no hero!"

      Well, you see, His arc goes like this - Someone asks him to be a hero, he says no, then he reluctantly does some heroics, remembers how much he doesn't like it, and tries to retire again.

    Something I found interesting about the production of this movie is that James Mangold tried to make sure the sets were untouched between takes. This was difficult with the outdoor sections, with the wind shifting the foliage around. He had several members of the crew set up a large tarp to harvest what scene integrity they could between takes. By coincidence the tarp was a shade of blue to match the skies in the background, leading to the working title of this movie being “Blue Harvest.”

      The XCU also never did Daken, and the movie doesn't explore his grief over losing Rogue apart from one moment where he sees her in the comic and looks sad. So it hit extra extra hard seeing him give Laura that final advice and her crying.

      Days of future past is not good. It was frustrating, dull and disappointing and marks the start of the downward spiral by starting a number of trends eg overly focused on mystique not because of her character but the actor trending, decade hoping, ditching characters established in previous movies so it felt like things never progressed.
      It is a movie with a lot of great scenes but it is not a great or even good movie.

    I've long held that Days of Future Past is the best X-Men as a movie, but Logan is the best movie that is X-Men. A layered film dealing with trauma, aging, legacy and family, with rewarding action that contributes to the narrative and fanservice that doesn't feel like winks and nods. Keene is a great actress, and any flaws in her performance are covered by editing to make her the heart of the movie. A powerful sendoff to a character that for many years has just wanted to die.

    Some thoughts even though I love this movie and think it's a pretty perfect ending for Wolverine:
    1. I always thought it would've been better to bring Liev Schreiber back as Sabertooth instead of doing a Logan clone. Hugh Jackman acting against himself just reminds of Jean Claude Van Damme, who couldn't stop doing that in his movies (Double Impact, Timecop, Maximum Risk, Replicant). Though I admit I ate up all the stupid cheese from most of JCVD's movies when he was in his prime.
    2. I love the fact that Boyd Holbrook is channeling Val Kilmer's "Tombstone" Doc Holiday performance in this movie. It's just instantly compelling, and just plain works.
    3. I would pay all the money to see someone re-score the final burial moments of this movie to a version of the cartoon X-Men theme that was sad in the style of the voices like the theme to James Horner's "Glory" or Hans Zimmer and Lisa Gerrard's "Gladiator". That would be perfection.

    I wonder why this is one of the least controversial "beloved character is old and regretful" movies. The only other contender I can immediately think of is Rocky Balboa/The Creed films. Even Mangold's Indiana Jones is thematically and stylistically very similar to Logan, but more controversial.

    • @WingerEdison
      @WingerEdison Před měsícem +3

      Just my thoughts, but maybe it's because Wolverine comes from a franchise known for branching timelines and different versions, so it's not actually the definitive end of the character. We the audience accept that Wolverine as a character can still appear and not be beholden to this ending. With Rocky, he gets to still be a badass and go out on his own terms with strength rather than a fart, and when he gets a successor it's not done by degrading him and his importance as a character. It didn't have that modern Disney writing problem of "Hey audience, remember that thing you like? It's dumb and old, and never made a difference." Luke Skywalker, as a Disney property, can never avoid the ending and storyline they gave him. Star Wars has never been about alternate universes or timelines, so it's harder to have hope that we can avoid an ending where his legacy is failure.

    I will also say, from a personal stand point, this feels like a perfect passing of the torch of a character. Like in the movie canon, audiences now expect Dafne Keen to be the new Wolverine, and it doesn't feel forced due to an actor aging out or wtv. It has the same energy as Hailee Steinfeld as the next Hawkeye, and fits, rather than the previous actor/character being forced out. They have managed to conclude their run as a character and it's time to move on sort of thing.

    Great video! Just wanted to point something as I understand it. I think the bullet wasn't for Logan to kill himself if things didn't go according to plan - that was the plan.
    He wanted to buy the boat so he and Charles could hop on, go to the middle of nowhere and Charles could live his last moments and die of a seizure without hurting anybody but Logan and then he would kill himself. Logan isn't willing to kill him or have him killed but also sees no end to Xavier as a threat and wants him at least to go on "natural" terms. Pretty grim.

    Right as the final Thoughts and Prizes segment ends he just totally drops the energy from like "THE CORRECT ANSWER-" to "-hey do you want to finish off this cheese toasty?" and point to his plate, with zero persona. Mason will look at the bite taken out of it and be reasonably confused, probably say no thanks, and then BAM
    "Wow, you finally won something and you just decline thats noble of you." and then James can take another bite and do the outro.
    Or he just gets the prize of a half eaten cheese toasty, worthy for his efforts I'd say.
