I figured out who Rick is: he’s the young version of the Tommy Lee Jones villain in “Under Siege”

Watch X-men days of future past
The idea that Charles first major seizure and event was so bad that it killed his own X-Men is so heart crushingly sad.
@@prathapkutty7407 if that's accurate where are they all? Why is only Logan caring for Charles? Why does it seem as if mutants aren't a thing at all in that world anymore?
He killed much more than the X-men I'm pretty sure, I thought he killed most of the mutants on the planet. That's why in the movie they say mutants are becoming more rare or are dying out. It's something like Xavier's version of "M-Day" maybe? 🤔
@@lilstubbs9553 no it’s the corn thing, that’s also why Logan’s healing is messed up they distributed a cure through corn and stuff, also why no new mutants had been born
@@terogates1 I don't remember that part. 🤔
@@terogates1 Logan's healing is messed up by adamantium poisoning since he had it in him for so long, pretty sure the cure in food products was to stop new mutants from being born.
That "This is what it feels like" line always gets me teary eyed.
Makes me think of the how it should have ended and how much that also makes me tear up thinking about this film
I love that line because you have to wonder if it's a statement about love and life, or about the relief of death.
I don't know quite what it is but Charles calming the horses gets me more than anything else.
I don’t think this line is referencing death. I think it’s referencing being a father. He doesn’t think he will live forever. He even wished for death the last couple of years. But he never in a million years thought he would ever have a child.
read this comment before watching the video and still teared up despite being completely prepared
Fun fact: When shooting the forest fight scene for the first time, Dafne Keen was having so much fun that she started grinning and giggling as she was slashing people and Hugh Jackman got so much cuteness overload watching it that he picked her up and hugged her.
That's very wholesome XD
@Darkstar so coming straight from the actors mouth is myths now?
@Darkstar It's not a myth. It was stated in interviews.
@@vetarlittorf1807 everyone, Darkstar is an all seeing deity. He knows what happened better than the people that were there. for he is all knowing.
@@garrickkthegreat5762 he dies in 3 months
Her calling Logan "Daddy" as he's dying just tore my heart to shreds.
i was getting teary eyed at first but when she called him "Daddy"....the floodgates broke open.
I get emotional but I’ve never cried during a film, even when Ironman died or anything. Up this his death I was like “damn this is sad” but hearing her say “daddy” I just broke down like a baby
Same mate.
That part gets everybody
In the movie "The Wolverine", Yukio tells Logan she had a vision of him dying with his heart in his hand. Logan survives after a scene where he briefly held his heart while on the operating table. After surviving he basically told her not all visions come true. It's at the end of this movie Logan dies holding Laura's hand. They make sure to show you him holding her hand. How poetic.
@Jonathan Jones both were done my James Mangold, could be planned
@@ivanagustinortiz5237 More like "Oh, remember this prophecy about his death that was subverted? Let's un-subvert it!"
BRUH 😢
"Nature made me a freak. Man made me a weapon. And God made it last too long"
I wish they kept that in the movie.
Was it cut out or is that a line from the comics? It seems familiar but I can't remember 😅
@@Jakeyisdead it's from a teaser for the movie
Jesus, I forgot just how utterly *brutal* this movie is! Now I wanna see the black-and-white version.
It's good.
Eric's right, this movie is traumatic and depressing that I didn't want to re-watch this again, it's just so hard to watch. But this is one of my favorite superhero movies.
It's very appropriate that the things we love the most, can hurt us the most...
Same.
@Darkstar Vrey much agreed I loved the film, oscars should have been won from it but I struggle to rewatch it.
Both times i went to the theaters and cried both times
“You die with your heart in your hand”
Oh yeah. Maybe this is really what she saw 🤔.
Dafne Keen, X-23’s actress, is a phenomenal little actress! She’s incredible in the show His Dark Materials that I hope you guys watch one day! It’s a shame that more people don’t know about that show because it’s amazing! Also the guy that plays the main bounty hunter guy, Boyd Holbrook, is great in the show Narcos!
The final season will drop soon, hopefully it picks up more steam then, as the story will finally be completed.
I love that Dafne stars in His dark materials alongside James McAvoy, too 😁 and it is an awesome show and Boyd was also in the Netflix's The Sandman
Eric has mentioned having watched HDM on his own time, don't know about the others though.
I am shocked that there are so few reactions to His Dark Materials on CZcams 😔 Fantastic show, can't wait for season 3 !
She’s not really little anymore lol. She’s a grown adult
42:05 I honestly never looked at that line like that. I was always thought Logan saying "Oh so this is what it feels like" was him experiencing love and a call back to Charles telling him "this is what life feels like". But it's cool that it has a double meaning.
I think it was more so actually dying. He’s definitely experienced everything in his lifetime but the feeling of actual death
@@maymunak.612 hmmm yea that makes more sense
I always felt it was a reference to being a father. Since he says it right after she says “Daddy”
I think the guys here interpreted in a different way but I think it is supposed to be a reference to the dinner scene and having that sense of family and connection
@@abkobiwan I agree with that. He's experienced everything besides being a father (in the movie universe).
That ending turning the cross into an X always makes me cry every time.
The first time I saw it I was trying to hold it in and when the X was made me and my dad couldn't hold it back anymore in the theatres and it was weird seeing him cry 😅
Logan having to fight X-24 is a great little piece of physical thematic exploration.
Dude has to kill what he used to be in order to move on completely - He has always seen himself as a monster that kills or gets others killed. But his last act is helping to kill the monster he was intended to be.
He killed the Wolverine and died as Logan.
It was also probably the first time he feared for his life I know he was ready but when he first faced X-24 he was staring down the barrel of what he used to give out and he was trying to protect Laura so I can see there being fear for his life because he wants to protect her
That was a really emotional movie. Still hits me as hard as it did the first time around. Growing up with these characters really makes the movie more impactful and elevates the material. I'm glad Hugh Jackman and Patrick Steward was able to say goodbye on a high note!
ikr? X-man movies were highly recommended to me by my father when I was a kid, and ever since he showed me the series on DVD I was HOOKED! It always had a very special place in my heart. Of all the badass characters, I especially loved Professor X. He was THE wisest, coolest character for me… I think he might’ve been my first introduction to the ‘mentor archetype’ character in a movie, so there was also that. Seeing Charles in this state in the theater actually filled me with so much horror that I was in denial mode for at least 30 minutes. “This surely must be some alternate universe storyline, right? Or… or, of course! They’re going to travel back in time and stop this future?” I kept thinking and hoping, fingers hurting from gripping the seat too tightly. My reaction to his death wasn’t pretty at all. Although it almost turned me into that one annoying fan that rages “THIS IS NOT MY (insert character name here)” (lol), I love this film so much and the choices they made for Patrick Steward’s amazing Professor X. Argh, it’s so good!
When I watched this in the theaters, there were so many people openly sobbing during the on-screen deaths of Charles and Logan - it felt like we were attending a funeral for beloved family members. Such a beautifully moving experience.
I just love the symbolism of Logan at the end of his life having to literally confront his past self in order to move on.
Logan: "Don't be what they made you"
They really need to do a sequel and call it simply "Laura". Fantastic movie.
They were going to. But then Disney bought Fox, so it was cancelled.
I say bring her into the MCU as the MCU Wolverine (will avoid the issue of having to recast Logan and still give us a proper Wolverine that's awesome).
@@jish55 Kinda hoping they do something like that. Seeing anyone else play Wolverine on screen would feel weird at this point. I'm all for X23 carrying the torch.
@@haasgaming same. if they have to bring "wolverine" in without hugh, i think that would be my personal pick for how.
laura being the mcu wolverine would be amazing and would probably be more widely accepted than having to recast logan.
Seeing Eric and Calvin getting so emotional knowing what's about to come at 16:40 while Rick is just really excited to see this for the first is heartbreaking and funny at the same time.
Still shocked Huge Jackman didn’t get an Oscar nomination for best actor because this performance was sensational.
I kept saying at LEAST make it a new category, like best acting in a comic book movie or super hero movie or something. Even though that’s probably too specific.
@@henrygreen2096 that’s the thing their shouldn’t be a category for comic book performances he should’ve been nominated like everyone else was.
or at least best supporting for Patrick Stewart.
The Oscars traditionally ignored action films, and it's rare that sci-fi, fantasy or comic book movies get any recognition by the academy. It was a major breakthrough when Return of the King got awards. I haven't paid much attention to the Oscars as a fan of action films, because the awards are usually going to historical dramas and art films.
If you liked Boyd Holbrook in this please watch Sandman, he is great in that as well.
I hope they get to watching Sandman.
Same. He's really good in just about everything I've seen him in tbh
Narcos
Ah I KNEW that was him. The sunglasses gave it away 😆
It's mid
Hands-down, the BEST X-Men movie! Mangold made a MASTERPIECE!
Just wait until Indiana Jones 5!
It's technically a Wolverine movie
@Ready Player Two ikr. And now they've announced that he's writing and directing a Star Wars film set 20,000 years before the OT about the creation of the Jedi order... I can't wait. Mangold hasn't missed yet
@@seanpatrickcain2 hasn't aged well
I didnt realize I had been avoiding rewatching this since watching it on release, but as I rewatched it again for the reaction, I remembered why. It was so powerful for the last hour.
I think Logan’s death has to be one of the most beautiful and guy wrenching movie deaths of all time, not just superhero movies. And the turning of the cross to the X always shreds me. Logan never wanted to be an X-Man, but he always was one at heart and Charles knew it.
The female Wolverine Rick may have been thinking about is Lady Deathstrike. X-23 actually debuted on the show X-Men:Evolution before going to the comics. Speaking of that show they actually had an episode about an energy drink that is harmless to humans but harmful to mutants. So I gusse that's similar to the corn syrup idea here.
X-23 is pretty much Marvel’s equivalent to Harley Quinn when they transition from cartoon to comic
she was probably my favorite thing about that show and I'd been hoping we'd get a version of her in a movie. I'm glad it was here and handled the way it was.
Didn’t lady deathstrike appear in the 80s
Didn’t lady deathstrike appear in the 80s
@@gumbythehorse2540 I think so.
I saw Logan twice in theaters and both times the entire theater (myself included) cried our eyes out. I still to this day can’t watch this movie without crying so much I exhaust myself.
For me the emotional impact is threefold.
1) Because this one of the best movies I have ever seen in my life, even if it wasn’t a comic book movie I would love it to death.
2) I was 10 years old when the first X-Men movie came out so I literally grew up with Hugh Jackman as my Wolverine so seeing him end his reign as this character was both heartbreaking and rewarding to watch because this is the perfect way to close out the story of Logan.
3) My mother passed away 18 months before this movie came out after almost 10 years of fighting cancer, so seeing the deaths of both Charles and Logan was extremely emotional to watch. But in a way it was cathartic to watch because like Charles and Logan she had fought her heart out longer than anyone else possibly could’ve in her condition and after fighting for so long she had earned her rest.
4) Dafne Keen is PERFECT as Laura/X-23 and I wish we had another movie about her.
So thank you so much to everyone who made this masterpiece, you gave us the Wolverine movie we have always wanted, and more.
There was supposed to be a Laura spin-off movie. But then the Disney-Fox buyout happened.
rare W, clears the mcu
My condolences towards your mother. I hope you have recovered.
@@freddywilliams1477 thank you, it was hard and I miss her still, but the pain does get easier to bear.
@@thedarkknight2221 I can not imagine it. Stay strong, I wish the best for you.
Dafne Keen is a fantastic actress & I loved the road trip concept. I get chills whenever I hear Jackman’s animalistic roar in the final battle & the ending never fails to make me cry.
I wish we could get something this serious in the MCU with the Thor franchise. We probably won’t see it under Taika but a proper Old King/All-Father Thor movie could be both depressing & epic af.
I'd like to see Fear Itself properly adapted
such a serious story
We gotta get Rick to watch Days of Future Past
Always a great thought. What happens when superheroes get old? When the Hulk has dementia and angrily tears cities apart cause hes confused. When the Flash has his eyes and reflexes start to go and he runs through people cause he cant see or react fast eenough. When Captain America has his PTSD end with him punching a hole in an orderlies chest.
I fully accept that I am a huge nerd, and as such I'm probably more forgiving of most super hero movies. But I fully believe that Logan is just an absolute masterpiece. It's not just a great super hero movie, it's just a great movie. I can't watch it without tearing up.
This movie broke my heart as a lifelong Logan fan. A great movie!
Speaking of James Mangold I would love a Ford v Ferrari reaction
Such a good movie
It was actually in a poll one time but it lost to Baby Driver.
@@joelguerra1385 I know. Baby Driver is a fun movie but I was still disappointed
It also gives me some hope Indy 5, an Old Man Indy type movie could be cool.
I rather have them watch Rush instead.
Ford v Ferrari was a bit of a disappointment fro anyone that knows the real story
😂😂😂I love how Calvin & Eric are fighting back tears but Rick is just chillin through the whole thing. Rick, you’re stone cold my guy😂😂
Seriously... I had the same thought. Stoic mother fucker.
At this point I believe Rick doesn't have a soul 😂😅
Anti-depressants will numb you :(
Having Ryan having just announced DP 3 with Hugh in it, this reaction was even more awesome
Funny how this was posted before the Deadpool 3 Wolverine news
This is the only superhero movie that made me just sit in quiet for a while in the movie theaters while the credits rolled. It's enough to make a grown man cry.
One of the things I love about this movie as a comic reader is how this movie is like one of the many apocalyptic alternate futures in x-men comics. There's a bunch of one-shot issues throughout the history of x-men comics that are dark & depressing stories of the future or just dark character stories, not to mention the many future worlds that entire arcs & characters come from like Bishop & Cable.
The single movie that validates every other x-men movie. It could definitely st d alone but the emotional attachment you get from the others movies (no matter how you enjoyed them) gives such weight to “Logan.” And “Logan” is so good it makes them all worth it
I wish I had a friendship with people the way y'all have with each other. That's admirable man.
Dafne Keen plays the lead character in the BBC adaptation of His Dark Materials too, which is a really good series.
This movie is such an masterpiece, most perfect send off for hugh Jackmans Wolverine!
This film made me cry so much
James Mangold definitely cooked it well. Whatta cast, acting, cinematography and story. Bravo 👏
Been a fan of Wolverine for about 40 years. Loved the film. I was crying at the end in the theater.
I always thought that Logan’s last line, “So this is what it feels like” was in reference to his conversation with Charles about having a family.
Charles having dementia is tragic and scary. That killed me. I loved The Reavers. Pierce was so great. Fantastic film.
I didn’t cry throughout the whole movie when I saw it in theaters, I didn’t cry until he was holding her hand as he died and she called him daddy. The minute she acknowledged him as her father I lost it and cried
One of the best superhero movies ever i always come back to rewatching the clips
37:05 From what I understand, the supposed role Sabretooth was going to play was that he'd be running the casino that Logan and crew stop at, with him being in peak physical condition with a business that's thriving in the post-mutant world in contrast to a dying Logan who has nothing but Charles, but on top of the idea being scrapped I think the actor's schedule didn't allow him time for this film.
Personally, whilst the film wouldn't need it, I'd have loved that. The Sabretooth/Wolverine dynamic is something that the films never really nailed for me, and I think it would've worked fine here with it just being someone from Logan's past who was an enemy, but now is simply one of the few connections he has left to the old world, not dissimilar from how in Unforgiven the various gunslingers are all in varied places in life, it'd be a fun bit of world building.
Plus, it would've been a cruel reminder of how bad the world is since the bad guy is doing better than the hero, and it would've felt in line with the film's more realistic tone that Sabretooth would no longer have any interest in Wolverine, instead seeing him as just a broken old man who's not worth his time. I think that interaction even if it were just one scene could've been a lot of fun.
It's funny how the Old Man Logan universe in the comics is pretty much the opposite scenario. In that Wolverine's adamantium stopped his mutation from increasing further, so he retained his humanity whilst Sabretooth without adamantium became a giant unthinking animalistic monster, who when found in the desert by Wolverine is taken out in just a few swipes of his claws decapitating him as a mercy killing not dissimilar from Obi-Wan killing Maul.
My favourite Xmen movie and one of my top 3 comic book films ever overall
It's so funny that the old Fox Xmen franchise put out masterpieces like this, DofP and X2, yet also put out such stinkers as Origins Wolverine and Dark Phoenix.
I have a strange nostalgia for that era despite it mostly being bad.
Whenever the MCU starts It's live action Xmen I strongly doubts they'll put out something as good as Logan
DofP? Dead of Pool?
OHHHH DAYS OF FUTURE PAST i’m an idiot
should be DofFP but eh 😂
@@jackbj
Days

Where's the second f coming from?
This movie inspired me to have a daughter. Now I have a three year old daughter. Time flies.
I first saw this in theatres 6 months after my dad passed and literally cried my eyes out. I still cry every single time I watch this movie. It is so well done
Anyone who has cared for relative with dementia and Alzheimer's can't help but feel the pain of the struggle that Logan had caring for Xavier. Having seen a mother and aunt through this horrible illness, these scenes hit home.
I remember watching it in theater and when his claws pop out the first time, the woman beside me said "wait, this is a superhero movie?" People know who Huge Jackman and Wolverine even in passing, and it would seem this movie did caught those not in the know by surprise.
Logan. The first ever super hero movie to make me cry.
This is an incredibly heavy movie which can only be watched every 6-9 months at the very least and it is certaintly in my top 10, if not even top 5 favorite cbm's of all time.
Still to this day that scene makes me a grown 38 year old man cry.... jesus every time! The movie is literally perfect
In 'The Wolverine'(2013), Yukio says she has the power of seeing how people will die. She says, “It’s not like I get a complete picture, more like looking through a keyhole. But I’m always right. All I can see is one part of a person’s life, their death. And I saw yours." Logan asks what she saw. She says, "I see you on your back, there’s blood everywhere. You’re holding your own heart in your hand.".....
Its jsut even sadder Logan had to experience so much shit in his life and the only real peace he had was with the x-men then charles died like twice came back, then died again now he's dead :( God this film is amazing
Growing up with wolverine as my all time favorite hero since I was a kid seeing this movie had a lot of emotional attachment to me.
I know this came out a while ago but I still feel compelled to say something. I loved X-Men growing up, it was my legit favorite series of movies ever. I am 21 years old, the first X-Men movie came out in 2000, about 2 years give or take a few months before I was born, these movies have literally been a part of my entire life. So when I tell you I was balling watching this movie for the first time, seeing the end of a story that had been such a big part of my life, seeing characters I love die, to this day, this movie came out years ago, still makes me cry every time I watch.
Even in watching this movie via reactions like this, the ending still kills me and makes me cry. IMHO, Logan is the best super hero movie ever made.
This is by far my favorite X-men movie. I also feel like it's the most faithful. The emotion is so real, everything just feels real.
You know, the clone does give me uncanny valley feels in this movie, but I almost feel like that makes it work better. It enhances the feeling of wrongness that must accompany seeing your doppelganger. That scene where it's coming down the stairs and moves around Logan makes me so tense
My opinion this is up there as one of the best superhero movies the emotion and the story is so good
What an amazing actress, she really conveyed the hard to control ferocity of a juvenile wolverine. I saw she did great on his dark materials, i'ma really rooting for her career and hopes she come back to the x-men universe to take on the mantle of wolverine. Truly a worthy successor to Jackman's Wolverine saga.
X-23, a la Harley Quinn, did not originate in the comics but rather in _X-Men Evolution,_ the animated series that ran from 2000 to 2003. Potential reaction series? They did some amazing character work on that show.
"This is Hugh Jackman saying goodbye to the character"
That aged well lol
i watch a few of these react channels. but i really like that you guys have a second half of the video be an indepth discussion. the first one i watched was "Prey", and i gained so much more respect for the film after your discussion. i'm subbed now. awesome.
I like that in THE WOLVERINE Yukio told Logan “I see you on your back, there’s blood everywhere. You’re holding your own heart in your hand." When she foretold seeing his death... and at the end of this he's holding X23 hand as he passes
Chronologically, this is the final X-Men movie. They went out with a bang. It was a perfect and satisfying conclusion to what was at the time 17 years of films (20 by the time the actual final movie of the franchise was released).
I enjoyed all of them for the most part. Origins and New Mutants are my least favorite, but I love X-Men, X2, First Class, The Wolverine, Days of Future Past, Deadpool, Deadpool 2, and Logan. I even liked The Last Stand, Apocalypse and Dark Phoenix, as divisive as they may be.
In The Wolverine, Yukio (who could see how people would die) said she saw Logan holding his heart in his hand. In this movie he dies holding Laura’s hand (her being his heart).
I first read about *Caliban* during the _X-Men_ comic run back in the '80s. He was a member of the morlocks if I remember correctly. They were the _not-so-pretty_ mutants that lived underground.
Man when she turned that cross to an X I was sobbing
X-23 first debuted in the animated show X-men evolution kinda like how Harley Quinn first showed up in the 90s Batman show also Firestar first showed up in Spider-Man and his amazing friends before being included into the comics
I remember going to see this on release night with my sister. A couple minutes in I leaned over and asked her "why does Wolverine look like Grandpa!?" Needless to say, this movie was especially emotional for us.
Nice catch with Charles raising little plants! Shows he’s a nurturer, ties in with his whole life.
Just the clip from this reaction was enough to ball over. I'm steal crying as I'm typing this 😭
I always shed a tear to this movie and the added context from the Wolverine film as well. In the Wolverine, Logan was told by a psychic how he was going to die. It was something along the lines of, "When you are laying there, dying, you will be holding your heart in your hand." Just makes me tear up knowing that the heart would be his daughter.
First movie to ever make me genuinely cry. Having a daughter of your own makes those final scenes hurt even more. Hugh Jackman did an amazing job portraying Logan, and would love to see him return as the character in some way.
It's a movie that every father can relate to. No matter how sore we are with the oppressive world around us, we take them head on in order to provide those who depend on us a better future and for us to have a good ending. A matured interpretation of the superhero genre that delivers Logan as a hero not just because he is Wolverine rather in the end he is actually a loving father..
Perfection. That is Logan.
Watched this for the first time recently before checking out the reaction. Kicking myself for not doing so earlier, it's phenomenal.
That sly 'last of a dying breed' quote when talking about fox movies that Eric said was very quickand subtle and I bet Rick wouldn't have caught onto it later on when he watched the film.
37:05 They couldn't get Liev Schrieber back as Sabretooth because he had scheduling conflicts with his Ray Donovan show
A shame because that would've been interesting and his amazing version of Sabretooth didn't deserve to only ever appear in the horrible Origins movie.
Also, I would kill for you guys to react to Ray Donovan some day. Great show
Edit:
Ahh Eric mentioned Ray Donovan at 43:54
Is that what happened? I remember reading somewhere that they scrapped Sabretooth because X-24 already filled the Wolverine parallel
i can't believe they made Dark Pheonix after this, what a great sendoff to this universe of movies!
God his death scene always makes me sob uncontrollably
Not just the best Wolferine or X Men film but also one of the greatest standalone masterpiece of a film. It’s basically LOGAN and his tragic mind. Not Wolverine. It was the perfect and beautifully tragic ending for him
Charles "I'm so sorry" always gets me.
Such a simple title yet it invoked so many emotions in me including confusion and disbelief. I've never been so excited to see someone get sad.
One of the reasons I love Logan so much is because of aaalll the other X-Men and Wolverine movies. Didn't love them all, but from what I gather, Logan was the only one to go through and experience absolutely everything, including the original trilogy, the Wolverine movies and the new trilogy (I know he wasn't in all of them). Living long enough to see all the X-men die and then being sent back through time through his consciousness to re-live his life and watch it all happen again in a different way.
Caliban has been in another x-men movie. He was the black market merchant that Psylocke worked for, before becoming a horseman for Apocalypse, and told Apocalypse where to find Magneto.
It's funny to think of Xavier as a father figure to Wolverine - which he totally is in the narrative - when you realize Logan is also supposed to be 40-50 years older than Charles 😂
I find it fitting that the plot of the kid being super powered weapons is like stranger things, considering the Duffer brothers are huge X-Men comics fans and have cited that as inspiration for Stranger Things
Calvin’s hair looks awesome 🤩. Also I’m sure they grow at twice the normal rate, dude has a new haircut every week!
Well this was a very pleasent surprise! One of the best comicbook movies i've ever seen!
Such an amazing, and painful movie. probably both Hugh's and Patrick's best performances. and thats saying alot for Patrick esp.
I've loved X-23 since her first appearance in xmen evolution, so i was glad to see at least a version of her here. and the girl playing her did also did a phenomenal job.
I also love how real they make some of the action sequences feel. that driving through the fence subversion was masterfully done, not just the scene itself, but the payoff of it of driving with the fence caught on the bottom of the limo as well. The train bit too. just having these scenes you've seen in a ton of movies but done in both a realistic feeling way, and a way you rarely see made the action in this even better then already is.
both hugh and Patrick said this would be their final real portrayals. but Patrick did say he'd return one more time for a deadpool movie. Hugh did say he wanted to be in the MCU and they held off on this film at first, hoping it would happen before hand, but ofcourse it didn't. he said he would have loved to at least have a first appearance in the mcu, but said that it would cheapen the character if it didn't happen before this movie. so who knows if he even will show up again.
but i have to admit, i never caught that it was charles that killed the xmen and that was the significance of the first seizure. that makes his story here all the more tragic and heartbreaking. or maybe i just forgot that line.
On the New Mutants. i didn't have a problem with it. I liked the story and the characters over all. and i liked the darker tone. the best x-movie? no, but still a solid entry i thought.
Almost 6 years later, and I'm still upset that Hugh Jackman didn't get Oscar nominated for this. He crushed it. So good! While I definitely would like to see a multiverse variant of Wolverine show up in an MCU cameo at some point like Patrick Stewart did, this is also such a fitting closure for his portrayal of the character, and I would absolutely be satisfied if he never reprises the role. I think this is the greatest superhero movie ever made, and I don't know if it'll ever be topped.
20:16 I watched another reactions and they always laughed at Logan smashing the car, it kinda made me upset. But you guys watching it in silent like understand his anger and frustration.. Love it.. Just love it..
one of my favorite movies of all time
