Sucks that your collection was stolen.

No doubt that digital is convenient no need to waste time with the disc.

But I just can't get myself to go only digital I need to know I own the actual movie box and disc.

Ownership of physical property is a more rewarding return for our hard work than an invisible digital product.

Plus owning the actual box and disc feels like i'm celebrating and embracing the movies I love in a more substantial manner as if i'm hanging a poster of the movie.
 
I really hate this new "week early" trend with HD copies. Why not release the physical one at the same time? :dunno

More incentive for people to go digital. Usually costs a few bucks less too. Personally I dig it.

Most movies are available about 2 weeks earlier and they are not available to rent until the physical movie has been released.
 
Ultimately, Mangold decided that the actual demise of the mutant super-team should take place off-screen in Logan the movie, but as he explained to me, the slaughter of the X-Men was originally intended to be shown on the big screen as well.



“I literally had written an opening which started with that sequence,” said Mangold. “And so it was quite literal, who was dead. But the reason we didn't do it wasn't to spare other films, it was that it redefined the movie. It made the movie about the X-Men, instead of being about Logan and Charles. And irrevocably, when you read the script opening that way, it became about this other tragedy, as opposed to that tragedy being something hovering like a shadow in the background for these characters.”



In the film, we do hear a radio report indicating that several of the X-Men were killed in an incident in Westchester, New York (home of the X-Mansion), but Mangold says he had a pretty good idea as to which of the members actually went down. In the end though he decided it was best not to “nail it down” so precisely.


Of course, in the Old Man Logan comics the death of the X-Men was brutally depicted. Whereas in the film we learn that Xavier had inadvertently killed his own students due to a degenerative brain disorder that caused him to lose control of his telepathic powers, in the comic Logan himself committed the heinous deed.

Pretty cool article, jye! :rock

We had no chance of seeing the "Old Man Logan" X-Men deaths on-screen. Marvel Studios wouldn't have allowed it - and honestly, Mangold did a better job of telling it, IMO.

I'm with you, Ropen. All digital for me.

Takes up basically no space. Accessible anytime, anywhere.
 
Yeah, Mysterio placed an illusion where the X-Men looked like some baddies. I find it dumb that Jubilee was one of the last to be killed.

I confuse my story lines up, but I know once Jubilee got her baby, her and Logan kind of connected more (not sure if that is why) - the problem though is I think the original Old Man Logan story line started before all of that stuff in the 616, not to mention in to totally different universe.

You know what? Truth is I can't keep track. :lol
