me too. movie was phenomenal. Wolverine has always been my favorite comic book character and it sucks to see him go but that was the best movie with him (i liked all of them tho, even the ones people shite on)

damn that girl killed it. i thought the aspect of charles telling her to protect Logan and using her feet claws even cool.

the final scene of him taking the medicine and going full wolverine for a few minutes was AWESOME!

Logan mentions that there hasn't been a mutant born in the past 25 years during the movie.... If DOFP ended in 2024.... It should be more like the year 2050... That means this is an alternate reality stand alone type movie. Good for stand alone, but you can't assume its the same reality as the other X-men movies, because the timeline doesn't make sense. And of course they find out that mutants were actually born in test tubes during the film, however the 25 year period of time was still mentioned.

One thing that confused me... who or what was the "sun seeker" that was mentioned a few times including when baldy was dying?

The sun seaker was the name of that boat he wanted to buy. But someone else may can chime in with what significance it has

Yeah, that's the wolverine I've wanted since 1999. Finally got it here and in Apocalypse.

The one thing I did like in Origins and which has been missing since, was the weight of the adamantium and the resulting power it gave him. It should break a hand to punch him. It's a nitpick and I understand the idea here was to show him weaker and broke down.

Are those kids actual mutants in the comics or just characters made up for the movie? I heard them referred to as new mutants once, is that the new mutants from the comics?

True. But if his statement about 25 years is true, then that means that all mutants in the ending scene in DOFP should be at least 20 something years old.....There would be no kids.... Timeline just seems way off to me... But they've done this before on the past with X-men movies,so.. oh well... Just doesn't jive....

I get the feeling the Xmen timeline is flexible as needed

Ummm, maybe because of the 10 minute segment about fricking his girlfriend for every holiday, proposed with an engagement ring pop the was stuck up his arse, masturbated to a stuffed unicorn with his baby hand and went looking for his gf in a strip club. None of which was violent, but all of which was inappropriate for a 10 year old. Does it make sense now?


I'd much rather have my 10 year old see a tit than an extremely graphic and realistic death or torture scene. No kid was ever scarred by boobs.

I thought of Children of Men the whole Logan Movie. Its almost a point of point homage, ripoff whatever. I liked both.

No, the The New Mutants in the comics coincided with Wolverine's time as an X-Men, and didn't include his daughter.

Dude what? Those kids were made from saved mutant dna injected into Mexican women. Thats why they are the last mutants. No more are being born "in the wild" only created in the lab in secret

You don't seem to understand..... I'm not talking about the kids in the Logan Movie.... I'm talking about the ending of Days of Future past.. The statement in "Logan" about no mutants in the last 25 years doesn't jive.... See ending of Days of Future past. which is suppose to be like 5 years before DOFP....

Just watched it.

Holy hell it was violent and beautiful.

We took the kids because they like comic book films. My 11 year old had tears in his eyes when Charles died.

are we sure the ending of days of future past is 2023 or whenever? i couldnt find anywhere that confirms that date as an absolute fact. it really could be anywhere between like 1970 and 2023

It's great to see a comic movie with consequences. When X is stabbed, he died. Unlike Civil War where war machine can fall out of the sky from 20,000 feet and survive.
