Best superhero movie of the last few years including all the marvel movies. Im pretty burnt out on the superhero movie genre but this was a great one Posted via Mobile Device [Reply]
X-24 killing Charles really came out of nowhere. It was pretty powerful when Logan came back to the house and found him and said "it wasn't me". If it weren't amidst all the action that one would have gotten to me.
X-23 calling Logan daddy was also pretty rough on the ol' feels.

Hugh Jackman is one of the best actors... especially action stars out there today. That little girl was ON POINT.

Agreed. I need to go watch it again because, right towards the past 5 minutes, some idiot let his phone go off for the entire time. Completely pulled everyone out of the moment. [Reply]

You'll be good. This movie feels almost like a standalone X-men film. No prior knowledge needed really. [Reply]

Required knowledge:
1. Wolverine is a mutant who has been around for a long time, and one of his key powers is that he regenerates all wounds at a very quick rate. And a long time ago someone coated his bones with adamantium, the strongest known metal, to make him even tougher in a fight.
2. Professor X is the world's most powerful psionic mutual -- telepathic powers. Can control people's minds etc.
You're good now. Seriously, it's basically a stand-alone, and it's awesome. Fucking GO! [Reply]

I wish more comic adaptations were stand alone like this. Just tell a great story with great characters and make a shit ton of money. Repeat. Don't set up for a sequel or try to build a cinematic universe. Just make good movies.
Don't get me wrong, I love the MCU, but DC and Fox trying and failing to pull it off has me frustrated. In fact even THE MCU has an expiration. Just make great stand alone stories and people will come in droves. [Reply]
