Adamantium Poisoning in Logan

[@jokerpool622]

The real reason was because the Anti-X formula in Corn Syrup in the movie suppressed the X gene. With Wolverine drinking so much he was exposed to it in large quantities effectively slowing his healing factor down enough to allow the Adamantium poisoning to take effect. With both of these slowing his healing factor down immensely, coupled with the fact that Adamantium poisoning made him look extremely old and brittle, you get this version of Old Man Logan.

[@StereoFozzie]

This is incorrect. The corn syrup prevented the birth of new mutants mainly. So that any new mutants had to be made artificially so they could be made into weapons. The adamantium poisoning is directly lifted from the old man Logan comics on which this movie is based. The corn syrup may have had an impact, however it wasn’t impacting on Laura whose healing factor was unchanged, or the other young mutants. So the ultimate demise of Logan was ultimately the metal on his skeleton dragging his healing factor down.

​@@StereoFozzie nope....

[@StereoFozzie]

@@jameslogan130 Yes. The corn syrup theory was just something that spread far, early. But it was never confirmed. The comic the movie is based on shows adamantium poisoning as the primary means. Corn syrup may have an impact, but it doesn’t seem to affect other mutants much. It was a plot device to prevent new mutant births. It’s never implied that Charles, Caliban, the mutant children, or any other mutants are weakened. Charles killed the other x-men off screen a year prior to the movies events, itself decades after new births stopped and most mutants apparently died out. They nearly had sabertooth in the movie, as the owner of the casino, likely appearing much younger than Logan to show how much his healing factor had diminished.

@@StereoFozzie Then explain why in Deadpool and Wolverine ... every other version of Wolverine is not aged or slowly dying from adamantium poisoning due to no anti-x gene corn syrup. And it's more than just a claim. They even say it in the movie that they put something in the food to stop new mutants from being born. The gene therapy the doctor talked about affected Logan (implied) as a side effect. Logan may be being poisoned by the adamantium, but no other rendition or version or multiverse theory Logan was aged like he was in the movie. And since the gene therapy in the food was added, the original reason (adamantium) for Logan aging that much and his healing slowed down that badly was sped up. Old Man Logan was a MUCH farther future than this movie was. All the heroes were as old (in appearance, obviously not actual age) as Logan was. Here, everyone would be only a little older than "today".

[@StereoFozzie]

@ Because that’s how it was written. The multiverse isn’t linear, the rules aren’t consistent. This movie was based on the old man Logan comic, rather than a recreation. It was still in the future but nowhere near as far. Again, Charles was not affected by the corn syrup, neither was Caliban, and as far as we know there was no weakening of other mutants before they died. They just died out as no new mutants were born, or were killed (some by Charles). The child mutants in the movie also appear to have no resistance to the corn syrup, they were bred in mothers who likely had the gene therapy removed. It prevents their formation only. Logan is the only one seen to be weakening. To add to it, Deadpool was apparently in the same universe. He was also not weakened or any mutants he knew. The Deadpool and wolverine movie did break quite a lot and cause a number of problems, but it leans on adamantium being the cause of Logan’s diminished powers. Heavy metal poisoning.

Got to also remember Logan is almost 200 years old

[@Dobbythecat123]

197.

[@themadtitan7603]

@@Dobbythecat123 That is almost 200 as the OP stated. Unless you were just specifying.

I think this is also because of the mutant suppressing stuff within the crops everyone is eating

[@fabianacarducci8545]

Yes, that's the reason, more than the adamantium poison.

[@damienrey8216]

despite all the debate i like to believe its all these 3 things 1. adamantium poisoning 2. corn syrup suppressing "antidote" in food 3. hes over 200 yrs old

but without adamantium Logan will be The weakness mutant in xman movie and his bone claws will break easily when fighting with other mutant I know he has the healing factor but the healing factor need a time to repair his bone claws

[@kingazuldiablo777]

Honestly they are pretty accurate for the most part to the comic.. I think his healing factor would go into overdrive and force him to go into feral mode like his comic book counterpart.

[@yuzhuocao5663]

Yo, the true reason ain’t the metal. The movie explains as well

[@Kjbl4ck]

You're right bub, they always mentions that the food was poisoned for the mutants

[@MintChoggy]

Both. Metal poisoning and Anti X mutant gene, put into the corn syrup by the Gov.

[@themadtitan7603]

I think it's both. The anti-mutant suppressant weakening his healing factor enough for the adamantium poisoning to affect him.

[@hirotwo2018]

It's only me or does this Wolverine looks like Joel from The Last of Us?

[@christianjohnson5294]

Hearing Logan say that the serum would kill you makes me wonder if it was the serum that really killed him. Because it wore off while he was in the fight with x-24.

Its giving TB

[@raulgalets]

damn this movie is so good. Imma watch it again

[@watchulookinat271]

The syrup surpresses his healing factor with that, the body rejects the metal. Not because the metal itself is poisonous

[@leonardodavinci02]

damn so ive been poisoned like taht too for having adamantium in my boddy 😎

His healing factor is weaker because of whisky and you old ah age

[@93Teejay]

​@@AustinDoesNotPostTheSameVidsit's not that, if adamantium is indestructible, it shouldn't be poisoning him because it shouldn't be degrading. As in, pieces of it shouldn't be breaking off into his bloodstream

[@SuperLander-nj1sd]

It was said in the movies that some anti-mutant chemicals were put into food and water. That was probably why

[@therideneverends1697]

@@93Teejay thats a very interesting point i havent heard brought up. Its possible that its not so much an actual poisoning per say but the cumulative strain of his body trying to reject something thats bound to his bones that IS so chemically stable that his immune system is burning itself out trying to brak it down
