Logan (New Wolverine movie March 3rd 2017)

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

This is why I am the perfect organism, I can love the MCU and Logan.

I'm washing arugala and cutting cucumbers while thinking about the level of quality that Mangold just unleashed to the world.

I'd like to see a black and white version, which might be a possibility, according to the director.

Whats zander rice's speech to logan before he shoots him? I know he killed his dad in xmen apocalypse, and that they created the mutants but at that moment people were coughing and couldnt hear the whole speech on how they got rid of the mutants

Ok onto my complaints on this otherwise near perfect movie.

Well first let me just say that performances from Jackman, Stewart, Merchant (Caliban) and little Keen were downright oscar worthy and Holbrook was also spectacular in his own right. Holbrook was a much better villain than I was anticipating.

Caliban actor was absolutely amazing in the part.

Now onto what's bugging me.

Spoiler

They had an incredible opportunity to show off his costume and they absolutely blew it!

I'm ok with Cloneverine but a monster Sabretooth would've been just as cool because the Wolverine battling himself metaphor would've worked just as well with Sabretooth.

But since they went with Cloneverine then why not bring the costume into the mix, not even with TWO WOLVERINES in a movie we STILL didn't get it and I don't see anymore chances in the future! Not getting to wear his costume not even once during the entire series and in his finale is one of the biggest superhero movie offenses of all time. It's just plain wrong.

The bullet could've easily been used by Wolverine to take out Cloneverine many times before his demise!

I'm ok with the kids revenge on Pierce but it could've been done much better than silly grass wrapping around him. Every basic soldier got a bloddy demise so why not, you know, THE MAIN BAD GUY!

What did happen to the X-Men, Charles killed them all during one of his seizure episodes or was it the virus? They should've shown how and why!

Why was Wolverine not healing again, adamantium poison was the sole reason?

So the reavers can go around blowing **** up and killing people everywhere but ohhhh noze...not the scary Canadian border, we can't cross that can we bad guys lol. Since when do bad guys follow the rules.

I thought going back to Canade would've had some significance to Wolverine, but nope.

Why were Wolverine and the professor shocked by the over the border experiment on the kids, they ran the X-Men, they've seen it all by now...but omg look mutant experiments, how awful, how scary. Wut?

Ok but that's it, like I said the movie is so well done that it can absorb those gripes of mine without a significant impact on the overall high quality of the movie.

yeah' I cried at the beginning when

Deadpool tried to change into his costume in a Phone Booth with the Superman Theme Playing.And it took so long the guy he was going to try and save got killed.

Right next to a Theater Playing LOGAN

Holbrook was a ****ing great nasty prick. His VTS figure is pre bought.

Happy you brought up that preview, very out of place to have it before Logan.

the concept was fun and the music was perfect but I kept thinking that DP was in the Logan movie, I had no idea it was a trailer. I was thinking to myself isn't Logan supposed to be a serious movie? Fox could not resist pimping DP before their serious opus I guess.

Saw it today. Loved it. The violent scenes were great - stuff I've always wanted to see Wolverine do to bad guys, but it's so much more than that, as it had moments of real beauty. Acting was sensational. Could Jackman actually get an oscar nod for this? I'd like to think so.

 

[YoNoSe]

Hopefully that's as close as we ever get to Jackman/Wolverine in a Deadpool movie. It would be a shame to spoil this final for the sake of some fart jokes.

Personally I think

Spoiler

the "X" headstone in the final shot would be the perfect image for the end of this X-Men movie continuity.

 

[surforia]

The more I think about this, the more I love it. I got to thinking about the idea of the X-Men, and their existence is very much one of optimism and hope for a better future for mutantkind. I guess, more than anything, it's the idea that they're focused on life; on living a peaceful coexistence with humanity, and those ideas of wanting to be accepted for who they are, and for their gifts; I think those ideas sort of define Logan in a tragic way. Like Xavier says, "I gave you a family," and, in some ways, I think that's the worst thing you can do for someone like Logan; getting them to recognize their humanity, and what's so ugly and beautiful and compelling about this movie is how someone lives with the things they've done, once they recognize that they're not an animal, and that they're a person, with feelings and needs.

We view the unbridled carnage unleashed in this movie in a sort of repressed way. We're exhilarated because this is a side of the character that we, previously, were unable to see, due to the limitations of ratings or whathaveyou, but, perhaps the greatest thing about the violence in this film is the degree to which it defines Logan's identity.

Spoiler

That line at the end about having to live with yourself, where Laura tells him and herself that "they were bad men," and he responds with "all the same;" that says so much about him. That, at some point in his life, he tried to justify himself in exactly the same way she is, now, and it didn't work. That's what makes that Shane monologue so poignant, as it truly cuts to the core of who Logan is and the idea that this was only ever going to end one way for him.

Great review. Agree 100%.

I very much doubt it. We've just had an oscars and by this time next year there'll have been so many other films I don't think they'll give a superhero movie serious consideration, if any at all. I'd like to be wrong.

X-23 was surprisingly good.

I was expecting either a Rey style Mary Sue or a very annoying character, but she was one of my favorite parts of the movie.

I can't remember when was the last time I liked a child character in a movie.

Maybe since John Connor? And this film does have some similarities to T2.

I was expecting to hate her.

I was pleasantly surprised.

That's what I said, but with more words and stuff.

The movie is definately rambling around in the head post viewing, quite the haunting score it had, loved it.

Same, she was a great character and I like that they weren't afraid to let her get beat up and manhandled. She's one of my favorite child characters, far better than the Hitgirl cliche type that Ellie was in The Last of Us.

I was pleasantly surprised.

pturtle, I loved it.

 

[pturtle]

I'm shocked

I saw it last night and was disappointed. Saw it again today and left with watery eyes
