Is *X2* Really the Best X-Men Movie? | FIRST TIME REACTION

[@Schmitty7546]

Guy says he effectively lives his day to day life without emotion - while clearly having strong emotional responses in almost every reaction he does ;) . As a fellow member of the high functioning autistic club, i can advise that the condition usually does not mean 'no'' emotional response. It is more accurate to call it 'divergent' emotional response.

Jennifer Lawrence was mystique in the new movies. In the original trilogy (X-men, X2 and X-men:the last stand) Mystique was played by Rebecca Romjin.

[@locustkllr]

This is why you HAVE to stop watching these movie series in some weirdo's opinion of what the timeline is supposed to be. Just watch them in release order.

[@stinkbug_deity]

@@locustkllryeah.. I’ve never seen anyone do it like this🤣🪲

[@brettcloud8550]

22:58 I thoroughly enjoy your commentary, Sir. I don't know how many years ago it was that I started following your content but it's things like this that keep me coming back, lol.

[@suziec5269]

Mystique was played by Rebecca Romjin before being played by Jennifer Lawrence.

[@AshLee92490]

Jean's never really given the impression that she wants to be with Logan, though. Yeah, she's probably attracted to him, sure, but it's mainly just Logan all in HER face being flirty, and Jean kinda amused by it. She's made it blantantly clear that she's with Scott. Logan just keeps trying cross boundaries while antagonizing Scott in the process. With that said, I DO have a theory regarding Jean's attraction to Logan, but I'm gonna wait on that one due to spoilers...

[@Raven5150]

Storm had a rough childhood, she met Charles as a kid in egypt trying to pick his pocket

[@bless1984]

Wolverine asked that question because 1) her abilities and its effect and 2) Wolverine is rude as hell. 😂

[@Raven5150]

Wolverine is over 200 years fought in 5 wars through the entire muliverse has like 120 kids hes from a different time

[@ThatShyGuyMatt]

It's always odd Nightcrawler gives Mystique the "I am in love with you" eyes considering in the comics he's actually her son. >.>

[@mannholloway]

Bro you realized the first movie was made in 1998 when Jennifer Lawrence was 8 years old???? Needless to say that ain't her

[@ThatShyGuyMatt]

Nightcrawler is one of my favs aside from the common ones like Wolverine or Mystique.

[@thecommodore6468]

X2 was released in 2003 when Jenneifer Lawence was still a child.

[@Raven5150]

To answer your question you didnt ask yes magneto can and has ripped wolverines skeleton out

[@KateSuhrgirlPlays]

Yeah but if there is just one microscopic hole of his adamantium skeleton which covers his actual skeleton, he could regenerate as his DNA would be exposed though I know this is most likely impossible since once hardened, adamantium can't be broken despite what Deadpool did in the recent movie.

[@Raven5150]

@KateSuhrgirlPlays i heard wolverine came back from 3 atoms left after the universe ended, now i can survive plenty of end of the worlds but if universe blew up right now im going be pissed off if i walk that off

[@xwolphen]

To my understanding, Magneto can only affect metals that are magnetic. Glasses frames typically are not.

[@Raven5150]

The gruesome part is lady deathstrike is still alive incased in animanium forever

[@Raven5150]

Scotts rebound woman is emma frost the blonde from first class but jean does had a an avient celestial diety attached to her

[@joshuamcdowell1460]

Also, that is a Lockheed Martin SR 71 Blackbird. It could have outrun those missiles at cruising speed.

I'm in the 98th percentile of humans with neanderthal DNA... I always wonder if that's why I never get sick.

[@Matisaro]

OOF on the next movie being spectacular lol. This is a mix of mid to good but all pre mcu with 0 care for shared story and tons of loopholes/retcons and recasts. However the payoff of all the homework is worth it as you go forward.

[@TimWing23]

Nice shirt. Can't wait for the symbiote to show up in the MCU

[@ChristosM]

Please watch the x men cartoon if you haven’t already. Both the 90s one and for certain X-Men 97.

[@Jerkwad152]

Fun fact: Neanderthals had bigger brains on average than modern humans. What likely killed them off was their tendency to stick in one spot with very closely knit clans, rather than adopt the more gregarious approach of their cro-magnon cousins.

[@Raven5150]

Charles is supposed to be mlk but under his leadership many many mutants have died

[@Nastyn1nja808]

10:05 time fir DeathNote? lol

[@steved1135]

Loving seeing you run through these MrLBoyd. From the perspective of someone not familiar with the comic books, these movies would naturally seem confusing, and the 'X-Men' films in particular. A lot of mistakes were made in these movies. The original source material is quite convoluted, which gets exacerbated in the movies, as the stories are mashups of storyline elements, and different directors select different things to focus on. Basically, it's very messy. I love 90% of this movie, for example, but the last 10% is hamfisted garbage that doesn't fit. But in any case, happily, way down the road with the movies, they manage to clean up the mess in one movie, effectively pulling off an old comic book trick to do it. And it's beautiful. Cheers.

[@ThatShyGuyMatt]

Did you have a fan on while recording? Not a major deal really. Just curious. ^_^ -edit- Ah, you mentioned AC. Gotcha. I always got AC or a fan going, even in winter. lol. Thank goodness I found how to add filters for recording to block it. Of course it messes with my sound quality a bit sometimes.

[@Raven5150]

9% neanderthal here thats really high almost unheard of when i found out now its lest thst 1% of the population

[@alicestevens8291]

I think anyone has their favorite. Mine is Days of Future Past. Since you haven't seen it I won't say why but the soundtrack aside there were just elements of the X-Men cartoon I grew up with that tickled me among other things. This one was a good production. They took the good stuff about the first and turned the volume up which was a smart move. Add some of the latter films were problematic to say the least and this one get's viewed as great in retrospect as a result. And the guy that played Kurt is hilarious and raunchy af in real life as a tidbit. I've seen an interview with him and he is really something else. But clearly it resonates that everyone in the cast and crew was really feeling it when they made this and that is worth something to me.

[@johannesbowers7467]

Kurt Wagner/Nightcrawler is the D'Artagnan of the XMen. Jennifer Lawrence was the Recast. Rebecca Romaijn-Stamos was the original Mystique

[@michaelhoffacker3162]

Jean Gray turns into the Phoenix and if you watch the last few seconds of the movie when they're flying over the water, it's actually from her point of view.If you look at the reflection there's a phoenix she has become the most powerful mutant😅😮😊

cudos to your self awareness my guy. anyone with power like that would just end up abusing it to "make the world a better place" but that's just their way of looking at the world. its nice you're aware your reality isn't THE reality

[@jaredschuster3010]

Bro Logan wasnt talking about sex. He is understands 1st hand what happens when people touch her. Also he gives no fucks about germs.

I mean, at the time RX8s were a nice choice for street racers who modded them out. Now was it faster then other street racing cars? Well S2000 beats out a RX8. And in big races an RX8 beat a ACrora RSX-S and a BMW-3. Then again, many people who mod their cars don't always race them, some do it just for show. Thus many liked the RX8 at the time for simply modding. Of course movie series like the Fast and Furious helped boost the RX8, Civic and other "street racing" cars. I was at a street race once and seen someone take on a Hummer 2. Can't recall the car. Not sure why anyone would race a Hummer, I mean I always loved how they look, but I'd never buy one. Gas hogs, tanky...etc.

The next movie is a let down compared to what they did in the animated series/comics, which was a saga that lasted several episodes, and they kind of cramed in and contored into the third movie. They also did almost the same story in the fourth movie of the reboot which come after these movies.

2:44 Because Out of Africa theory is a lie, Robert Sepher debunks it in one of his videos

[@Schmitty7546]

Eh, I happened to catch some of that guy's content myself (although admittedly not much - just one video if I remember). From the impression I got, I would not advise taking anything he says very seriously. I caught a number of statements where he drastically misrepresents modern consensus academic opinion. For one example, he seems to make a point of highlighting that modern academics think of humans as 'modified chimps', and that such people think we 'evolved from [modern-style] apes'. This is completely untrue and misrepresentative. Modern consensus has focussed on branched common ancestors for decades. He is however not wrong when he talks about multiple different human species existing during the same periods, and various different species interbreeding. As far as I am aware this opinion is not controversial

[@woahblackbettybamalam]

​​@@Schmitty7546 Hes an anthropologist...who are you? Lol why would i listen to you who admittedly hasnt watched the video/evidence im referring to

[@Schmitty7546]

@@woahblackbettybamalam Originally said 'admittedly not much', but I have watched some of his content - during which I heard him say one or two things that were verifiably untrue and misrepresentative (one example above). You do you, but I got bad vibes, and have no problem saying so. I encourage people to make up their own minds.

[@knight4iam]

Please ignore any negative comments about the 3rd film and Origins Wolverine. Both are great additions to the series. As a comic book collector and previous comic store owner, I'm familiar with how "picky" fans were because they wanted specific things to happen, based on the comics. Their hearts were turned against the films when they didn't get what they wanted.

[@lajaness4026]

Na bro those movies mediocre wolverines orgin was going ok then dropped the ball with that Deadpool nonsense ..x3 just felt like they was rushing it's entertaining in it's own way but those two plus the apocalypse and the most recent x men with phoniex were disappointing to comic and non comic book fans alike

[@mikedignum1868]

None of the characters line up with their comic book versions, which is why it sounds and looks weird in some places. In the comics, Jean and Prof-X are Omega-level mutants.

[@AshLee92490]

Storm is also, but it took forever for them to finally confirm it...

[@JadeK297]

I don’t think prof-X is omega.

[@reggieedmond9770]

Can we please stop recommending first time ppl to watch these movies in weird orders. Do you not see the confusion it can cause.
