Also I guess this is a spoiler The Government was successful in hunting down mutants and killing them/torturing them whatever with Caliban helping them hunt them down. It's only been a year I think since Charles went crazy and killed the X Men team. Also, the ending of this was rather interesting because Logan doesn't use his claws to kill any of the main villians he just shoots him with a gun which is so out of character then he gets killed by Young Logan and has to be rescued.

I haven't seen an X-Men movie since First Class. Will that matter at all?

I thought what was interesting was Old Logan doesn't actually beat Young Logan at all. He get's his rear end kicked up and down then is saved by other characters in both instances

What do people think of Logan's last words " So this is what this feels like? " It kind of has a double meaning Death and Love. He's never experienced dying before and he's never experienced that kind of love or kindness . I thought it was brutally sad. Almost to much so


Ugh this film is so bittersweet and good.

Hopefully this makes film studios realize that they don't have to have a huge interconnected franchise to have a great film plus the R rating doesn't hurt Super Hero films.

I really hope that we get a X-Force movie. Not the normal X Force, but the Cyclops approved kill squad of assassins that pre emptively takes out threats to mutants. That'd be a good way to introduce a new Wolvernine.

This was kind of the plot for Spider Man and the X Men.

There was also.a recent comic that was called I think Worst X Man where their super power was just to explode that was it once they used it they were dead. It wasn't even a massive explosion either no they'd just die.


Also The Great Lakes Avengers were basically all mutants with worthless powers.

Hahaha I just realized because I was watching Terminator 2 that Logan is set in 2029 which is the same year that the Terminator get's sent back from. That can't be just a weird coincidence.

I really hope this is super successful and that people pay attention to how different this is from other super hero stories. Like I want a goddamn Gotham by Gaslight movie.
