      The only part that kinda sucks because it doesn’t make much sense is because wolverine should be way younger if Charles and Eric are this young unless I’m missing something, but it’s not like they can make Hugh Jackman young again to make him as young as he would have been at this time but idk maybe I’m missing something but he should be way younger like the rest of the them like a teenager or something I think but maybe im wrong

      Yup. But unfortunately even the most overpowered characters fall victim to the greatest weakness of any fictional character:
      The writers pen.
      I don't even read X-Men and never really have, but i've seen no evidence in comics to suggest that Darwin's power has any discernable limit. His biggest feat as you've already stated, was going up against the Worldbreaker Hulk, and his power determined to just "be somewhere else" as the best defense. Granted he didn't do anything to the Hulk, but his power is all about survival, not power.
      It's a shame he's not included more in Marvel as it would be interesting to see how far they can push his powers capabilities. I'd even wager that he'd be quite resistant to reality warping as his body would ensure it would remain unaffected - at least for a while - from any changes made to the universe around Darwin, but thats just me being hypothetical.

    The best part about this movie is charles experiences his best friend murdering someone. Him being in control of shaw, it was clear that as a telepath he could feel the raw pain of the coin slowly cutting through. It was such a brutal way to show what could create a rift between 2 people. Looking your best friend in the eye as he kills you slowly. This movie is just so good.

      @kingcarl2012 6 месяцев назад +6

      Yea that is what happened. It gets kind of confusing because he was created in 2006 in the comic Deadly Genesis, but the formation of his team and the mission they all "died" on took place before Giant size X-men #1 from 1975, So in terms of real time he was technically pure energy for over 20 years.
      If you take into account that time works pretty wonky in the comic world I believe back in the original X-men days they were in their late teens/early twenties and in the Deadly Genesis book they are more mid/late 30s at least, thats still being gone for over a decade.
      It is completely plausible what Shaw did broke him down to a sub-atomic level and we just never see him reform and they could bring him back whenever they want.

    1:25 what's messed up is that coin that he used at Magneto's level as a child he would not have been able to move it because it doesn't have enough magnetic material in it. It does have some and he could definitely move it later on at his power but I think Shaw had an idea that his powers were magnetic so he used that coin on purpose to see what would happen. By the way the fact that he killed Darwin was bullshit. That would not have killed the real Darwin. He would have either actually adapted to it or he would adapt a way to expel it. Darwin is literally fought so many strong mutants and it's crazy that he died in this. About the only character he couldn't adapt to was the hulk. His powers pretty much teleported him away because that's all that he could do against the hulk. So one way or another that wouldn't have killed him

      True, but what I think happened was that there could have been a miscommunication. I am obsessed with Erik and Charles and I really try to break down their characters and I watched that scene so many times to try and understand it and this is what I think. Erik told Charles how he felt about wanting to be by his side and Erik doesn’t really open up often. I do believe there are parts to Erik that hates himself due to his decisions and I think when he said “I want you by my side… we want the same thing” and Charles said “ im sorry my friend, but we do not”. Erik took that as Charles doesn’t want to be by Erik’s side and I think Erik was respecting Charles decision and left thinking that is what Charles wanted him to do. Erik believes the idea of charles not wanting to be with him because why would Charles want to after he just told Erik that he blames him for his paralysis which clearly affected Erik and you can see the heartbreak in his eyes when he thinks Charles doesn’t want to be around him. Again just a theory. Azazeal was with Erik and Erik and Charles are on two different paths so Azazeal had left with Erik leaving Charles. I don’t think Erik wanted to leave Charles and I do think you are right, he should have got him help before he left but I think Erik trusted Hank and the others to take care of Charles.

      It was not the creator's idea. It was Chris Claremont's idea who was the X-men writer at the time. But it was not the original idea, he originally wanted to have Nightmare one of Dr Strange's villains to be Nightcrawler's father but the creator of Nightmare's character didn't allow that. Later he proposed Mystique be the 'father' but Marvel it is too controversial so he settled with Mystique and Azazel as Nightcrawler's parents but that was again retconed later to the one you said.

Claremont took over writing duties immediately after Nightcrawler's debut and wrote nearly all of the stories featuring the character for more than a decade. It's just like Deadpool, as Rob Liefeld really doesn't deserve the credit for creating the character, since the wisecracking fourth wall breaking Deadpool we know and love was the brainchild of other writers.

    The girl at the beach shooting at Magneto, Moira Mctaggart, did, in fact, help. The fact that the bombs didn't hit the ships was because of her. Also, the only reason that Charles is paralyzed is because he had to stop Magneto, meaning it's Magneto's fault period. He admitted it when he stopped trying to kill the woman. Also, did you forget that at the end of the third movie...professor X wasn't dead... Jean head destroyed his body, but before he died, he sent his consciousness into the brain-dead patient that, funny enough, Moira Mctaggart was looking after... Which also just so happened to be Charles's twin brother, so he even looks the same

      @Madmax-yl1wf 6 месяцев назад +4

      Yes, but what was Moira doing shooting metal bullets at someone she knew could control metal. She should have known that it would deflect and have no effect on him. Why did she go straight for her gun. She was reckless. Plus, she should have saw Charles getting up and stopped shooting knowing he was near Erik. Charles was behind Erik. Erik didn’t see Charles getting up and thought he was still on the ground when he was deflecting the bullets. I do think Erik is partially to blame but Moira should also be partially blamed as well. Erik truly did not want Charles to get hurt, I think when Erik punched Charles, he was trying to knock Charles out so he would stop intervening and prevent him from getting hurt. He wanted Charles out of the way to protect him. What happened was an accident but everyone putting all the blame on Erik gave him more guilt and probably will never forgive himself. And I sympathize Erik a lot. He’s my fav. I feel so bad and will defend him in any way. Plus I don’t like Moira.

However, Wolverine Origins is not considered Canon as the future movies constantly contradict it. So ignore that one for continuity as all the other movies did.

    Nah bro I completely agree Jennifer Lawrence was not a good Mistique at all compared to Rebecca Romijn. She just doesn't have the same vibe at all and it isn't because she's written to be innocent here. Even in the later movies where she's supposed to be more badass and authoritative, nothing coming out of her mouth is convincing at all. She's not a bad actress I just feel like this wasn't the role for her, and it also kinda just started seeming like she didn't wanna be there. (Especially later down the line where her Mistique makeup starts looking worse and worse due to her allergic reaction to the Blue she's usually painted with, it was a downgrade in both her character and appearance...)

    It's still my favourite live-action ensemble X-Men movie. I love how Matthew Vaughn uses these characters and their powers. James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender are fantastic together as younger versions of Professor X and Magneto (Micheal Fassbender especially)
    That F-bomb from Wolverine's cameo is one of the greatest F-bombs Ive ever seen in a movie. Fun Fact: Hugh Jackman was told to improvise that scene without Micheal Fassbender and James McAvoy's knowledge, so their reactions in that scene are genuine.
    However, I will admit the movie isn't perfect as the prosthetics are a bit off, some characters are underutilized, and Mystique's character arc feels a bit rushed, not to mention the infamous meme of the movie, for no logical reason, killing off one of the only black characters who' mutant ability is to survive any scenario possible, nevertheless this is still one of the best movies in the Fox X-Men franchise.

Her diamond form developed during what happened on Genosha which was depicted in X-Men '97. The diamond form is a "secondary mutation" which some mutants have where they have one mutant power but then develop a second one after the first develops.

    Hey Achara, this movie basically “resets” the entire X-Men timeline and continuity. The next movie Days of Future Past attempts to reconcile the two timelines together. So you will have events that occurred timeline wise, before this movie that will not line up with the movies that occur after. So the Wolverine cameo and all of the other mutants shown or referenced in Origins don’t line-up within most of the films. Basically Origins becomes the only film that directly conflicts with what happens in X-Men: Apocalypse as well as what happens in the next movie Days of Future Past.

    Because in this universe, they've been around just as long.
    Matthew Vaughn (Layer Cake, Kick-A**, Kingsman) helmed this one.
    Casting of the characters was great especially with McAvoy as Xavier and Fassbender as Lernsherr.
    The building of the past for Children of the Atom with history we already know in the 20th century.
    Putting the Hellfiire Club on screen had been in early drafts of the first X-Men film in the 90s.
    Kevin Bacon as Sebastian Shaw (cold and calculating) and January Jones aa Emma Frost (superhot) were perfect too.
    Part of a summer full of multiple Marvel movies along with Marvel Studios' Thor and Captain America:The First Avenger.
