    The scene about the cloned corn is actually very important. That corn syrup is how they have manipulated the X-gene out of existence over the last 20 years, and why the kids in this movie had to be cloned from pre-existing mutants like Logan.

That was tragic... but... so much worse the implied end for the team in this film where Charles killed them all with his dementia and seizures, and only Logan could survive the incident.

    This is the film that definitively shows how, in the right hands, "superhero" can be more a medium than a genre. Pretty much everything about being human is here. Amazing movie, hard to imagine a better send-off.
    (I was OK when Xavier dies, sad but OK. I was even OK when Logan dies. Then Laura turned the cross to make an 'X' and suddenly i'm sobbing in the cinema. Apparently death I can deal with but two sticks tied together ? Not so much)

      Yeah, I really wish superhero movies would play more with genre. Winter Soldier plays at being a Cold War-era conspiracy drama, but then feints at the end and becomes the normal shooty-punchy thing. I think this is the only movie that manages to commit to its genre all the way through. (Maayyybe the Tim Burton Batmans and Ragnarok, but I’d argue that’s more aesthetics than genre.)

      (and yeah, Marvel at least seems to _want_ to play around more with genres - 'Wandavision' for instance was a pretty big swing I thought, until the later stages anyway - but they're maybe slightly trapped by the economics in that superhero movies are so expensive they need to be huge international crowd-pleasers just to break even, which arguably leads to a chronic case of the final act pew-pews)

    Early in the evolution of Wolverine as a comics character, the creators stumbled onto the fact that if you pair him up with a 12yo or so girl, he suddenly becomes a much more interesting character. She (originally Kitty in the comics) gives him an anchor to the humanity he keeps trying to run away from, he becomes the murder dad she needs. The first two movies used Rogue in this role really well, and here Dafne Keen is absolutely brilliant as Laura. Love this movie - such a great note for Jackman and Sir Patrick to go out on, even though it's so sad. Laura turning the cross to make an X on Logan's grave wrecks me every time. Glad y'all enjoyed it too.

      While the example of Kitty Pryde that you mentioned did happened in the 80’s, X-23 and Kitty are 2 different characters. X-23 was first introduced in the X-Men Evolution animated series. Later because of the character popularity, the character was introduced to the comics and has become a mainstay. Also a fun fact and to go with what you mention about the formula of pairing Wolverine as a fatherly figure to a teenager, in the 90’s they did the same with Jubilee and it was well received as well.

      Ironically, Logan honestly treated Laura like shit in the comics. He dumped her at the Xavier school and had very little to do with her until X-Force, where it would be charitable to call him abusive (he literally told a depressed and suicidal girl who had suffered YEARS of horrendous emotional and physical abuse that her life was worthless after she allowed Wolfsbane to be captured by Purifiers). While they got better around the time of her solo book under Liu, Laura never enjoyed the sort of close relationship that Kitty and Jubilee had with Logan.

Laura was introduced in the comics within months of her appearance in Evolution ("X23" aired in August, 2003, and NYX #3 was released in December that same year) which means Marvel must have already been planning to include her in the books around the time that episode of Evolution was in production.

    The only word I can use to describe this movie is “pain”. This one ranks waaaay up on my “best movies” list, and I love it, but it hurts so much to watch it. Everything that Logan has been through, his healing factor doesn’t mean he doesn’t feel pain, and it finally catches up to him. Hugh Jackman did such a fantastic job throughout the years playing this character and seeing it close out like this in such a masterfully filmed movie was one of my most memorable movie experiences I’ve ever had. I remember going to the theaters for the opening show of this one and just walking out afterwards just completely drained of all emotion and feeling, drove to my parents house (this would be at about 11 PM, but they were still up and watching TV) and just going into the den and hugging them, I needed that human to human contact to process what I’d just witnessed. Later, watched it with my Dad when it came out on DVD, and it wrecked us both.

    Phenomenal reaction video! First time watching your channel, and I was right there with both of you! Old Man Logan... he knew what he was and the ending he was headed for. He didn't want to drag Laura into it, but he ended up doing just that, and she did the same with Logan and "Chuck"! Truly a great movie, a beautiful "film" and a great ending for Logan. Xaviers last coherent thoughts weere about how perfect the day was. I suppose that is worth something... And thanks to you two for bringing us along for the ride!

    I do feel like you could have watched "The Wolverine" before this one. It's pretty good compared to Origins, and there is something that happens in that movie that ties in directly with this one. Technically, that movie takes place in the timeline of the original trilogy, but it deals with his guilt over killing Jean, which I quite liked. Food for thought, but I'll understand if you don't check it out.

      I completely agree!!! The death of Logan with Laura by his side goes with what was in the film and made Logan's goodbye so much more heartbreaking. The Wolverine film doesn't get enough credit and is very underrated.

    My Granddad also had dementia in the final years of his life. This movie captures aspects of it so well. Particularly in the relationship between Logan and Charles, and the tragedy of the anger and resentment that develops and at times overshadows the love. I saw that a lot with my Dad and Granddad. Or even suddenly hearing Charles swear. I know it goes with this film being an adult rating, but still it reminds of my Granddad. He was always the kindest, gentlest person who never said a bad word around us. And hearing swearing from him when he was sick was utterly shocking.

    Wolverine has always carried all the pain and heartbreak for the X-Men. After a life of pain and loss he meets them. Kitty in the 80s, Jubilee in the 90s Rogue in the movies and Laura (x23) after that. He has a long list of loved ones he loses and finds but in the end he lives so long that he watches them all die: family, friends, daughters and the women he loves. Wolverine's story has always been a tragedy I'm glad they finally put that in the films.

    Just like the Mandalorian, this is shot and told in the style of a Western, this genre being called the Neo-Western. In fact, it takes many cues from Shane, the movie playing on tv while they were in Vegas. Logan is the cowboys last ride. As a huge fan of Westerns, I've loved that the Neo-Western has been bringing fantastic masterpieces like Logan, The Mandalorian, Hell or High Water, and many others. Glad you liked it as well.

      The what now? The Academy 30 or 40 years ago was even *more* conservative than it is now. It was hard to get even comedic films considered. Still is, but somewhat less so.
      The problem is that the voting blocs for the Academy are, in large part, the film unions. Unions are great, don't get me wrong, but these unions in particular skew extremely heavily towards white, male, cis, working-class Boomers, mostly as a result of historical prejudice in the industry as a whole. Hence the "Oscars so White" issue.

    This movie delivered, and then some. The fact that this movie only earned one oscar nomination is a crime.

Like I've already seen in some places, they'll start bitching about the 'feminisation' of the MCU given all the female characters we're getting in Phase 4 & beyond.

    • @MikeHesk742
      @MikeHesk742 2 года назад +1

      Anyone who replaces Hugh has to play it completely different from him, because Hugh's now too iconic. Having Laura's character instead would be a neat way to do that.
      The other option I've wanted for a long time was Wolverine more like how he was back in the comics and old animated series: short, hairy, ugly, with the raspiest voice. When you look back at that being the original Wolverine Hugh was actually terrible casting from the outset, but he managed to really make it his own and be a much cleaner/friendlier Wolverine which is now what people think of.

I will say, the comic is even darker as it involved all of the Avengers Xmen and many others. This movie also combined the comic of The Death of Wolverine, which is great as well. I just wish we had the ending to Old Man Logan where Logan decides to raise a Baby Hulk on his own.
