Something I found interesting about the production of this movie is that James Mangold tried to make sure the sets were untouched between takes. This was difficult with the outdoor sections, with the wind shifting the foliage around. He had several members of the crew set up a large tarp to harvest what scene integrity they could between takes. By coincidence the tarp was a shade of blue to match the skies in the background, leading to the working title of this movie being “Blue Harvest.”

I've long held that Days of Future Past is the best X-Men as a movie, but Logan is the best movie that is X-Men. A layered film dealing with trauma, aging, legacy and family, with rewarding action that contributes to the narrative and fanservice that doesn't feel like winks and nods. Keene is a great actress, and any flaws in her performance are covered by editing to make her the heart of the movie. A powerful sendoff to a character that for many years has just wanted to die.

The serious answer is: Earlier in the movie, when they're with that family on that farm, Xavier tells Logan "This is what life looks like. A home, people who love each other, a safe place. You should take a moment and feel it." As he was dying, Logan felt those things for the first time. Hence, "So this is what it feels like."

He wanted to buy the boat so he and Charles could hop on, go to the middle of nowhere and Charles could live his last moments and die of a seizure without hurting anybody but Logan and then he would kill himself. Logan isn't willing to kill him or have him killed but also sees no end to Xavier as a threat and wants him at least to go on "natural" terms. Pretty grim.

I will also say, from a personal stand point, this feels like a perfect passing of the torch of a character. Like in the movie canon, audiences now expect Dafne Keen to be the new Wolverine, and it doesn't feel forced due to an actor aging out or wtv. It has the same energy as Hailee Steinfeld as the next Hawkeye, and fits, rather than the previous actor/character being forced out. They have managed to conclude their run as a character and it's time to move on sort of thing.

Some thoughts even though I love this movie and think it's a pretty perfect ending for Wolverine: 1. I always thought it would've been better to bring Liev Schreiber back as Sabertooth instead of doing a Logan clone. Hugh Jackman acting against himself just reminds of Jean Claude Van Damme, who couldn't stop doing that in his movies (Double Impact, Timecop, Maximum Risk, Replicant). Though I admit I ate up all the stupid cheese from most of JCVD's movies when he was in his prime. 2. I love the fact that Boyd Holbrook is channeling Val Kilmer's "Tombstone" Doc Holiday performance in this movie. It's just instantly compelling, and just plain works. 3. I would pay all the money to see someone re-score the final burial moments of this movie to a version of the cartoon X-Men theme that was sad in the style of the voices like the theme to James Horner's "Glory" or Hans Zimmer and Lisa Gerrard's "Gladiator". That would be perfection.

Just my thoughts, but maybe it's because Wolverine comes from a franchise known for branching timelines and different versions, so it's not actually the definitive end of the character. We the audience accept that Wolverine as a character can still appear and not be beholden to this ending. With Rocky, he gets to still be a badass and go out on his own terms with strength rather than a fart, and when he gets a successor it's not done by degrading him and his importance as a character. It didn't have that modern Disney writing problem of "Hey audience, remember that thing you like? It's dumb and old, and never made a difference." Luke Skywalker, as a Disney property, can never avoid the ending and storyline they gave him. Star Wars has never been about alternate universes or timelines, so it's harder to have hope that we can avoid an ending where his legacy is failure.

Imagine this: James is eating a cheese toasty right before recording but stops half way through after only a couple of bites. Right as the final Thoughts and Prizes segment ends he just totally drops the energy from like "THE CORRECT ANSWER-" to "-hey do you want to finish off this cheese toasty?" and point to his plate, with zero persona. Mason will look at the bite taken out of it and be reasonably confused, probably say no thanks, and then BAM "Wow, you finally won something and you just decline thats noble of you." and then James can take another bite and do the outro. Or he just gets the prize of a half eaten cheese toasty, worthy for his efforts I'd say.

Donald Pierce is such an incredible villain. The actor who plays him also played another incredible comic book villain in the Sandman. The Corinthian. But also I’m just a sucker for prosthetic hands. They look so cool.

When I was in 8th grade I was leaving the theater after falling asleep during a movie a couple months before Logan came out and my mom made me take a picture with the big cardboard thing for this movie because my name is Logan, it’s a very strange photo, I’m basically asleep standing up in it. Then I got a terrible concussion and couldn’t see Logan till almost the end of its theatrical run. These are my stories around the movie that I share a name with, great movie by the way

James I know you have a laundry list of prizes for the ultimate payoff prize at the culmination of thoughts and prizes, but I thought I’d offer a few ideas -a throwback Halloween picture of James and/or maso -a 30 second snake eyes COG -a sweepstakes to win your house -a rad new shirt design for us to buy (capitalism is the best prize)

This movie absolutely wrecked my soul when I saw it for the first time in theaters. The X-Men were my first superhero movies, like they were for a lot of people. This series of movies, as varied in quality and logic as they are, impacted me more than the MCU. I was thrilled with this movie even as I sobbed through the end. I couldn't imagine a more respectful send-off for this character. I'm psyched he's coming back for Deadpool 3, but I could've died happy if this had been the last time Hugh Jackman played Wolverine.

I'm glad that you mentioned Old Man Logan in this video because the new Deadpool movie looks like it's just going to be a more comic book "accurate" Old Man Logan storyline, but with Deadpool as his traveling companion rather than Hawkeye. It'll be Old Man Logan + Battleworlds, and my guess would be that we'll see the older Hugh Jackman version of Wolverine be brought into the mainline MCU somehow just like the comics did with the literal Old Man Logan character being brought into the main comic universe after the Death of Wolverine storyline. They can recast the mainline MCU version of the character with a younger actor, while also keeping Hugh Jackman in their back pocket if they need him for cameos or minor roles in future films. Also, X-24 should just have been Victor Creed post-adamantium and having been more subdued and controlled by Richard E. Grant's character.

I heard there was an unfilmed intro to this movie that would have been way darker. Word is it would have had all the original X-Men actors returning and finally wearing the comic accurate suits, going on a mission and then all dying when Charles had his first seizure. Honestly I’m really happy they didn’t do that intro because can you imagine how much of a slap in the face to the people who’d been begging Fox to use the comic costumes that would have been?

Genuinely, the Wolverine trilogy are the only X-Men films I've seen but since I watched all of them either pirated on a laptop on some lonely night or on a crappy tv at someone's house party across more than a decade I can't really say much about that experience. They were all movies, and one of them was even good

the only thing this really takes from Old Man Logan is the vague idea of Logan (no costume) is old and in some sort of post-apocalyptic desert. i think thats one of the best things abt it cause just imagine if it tried at all to adapt the actual comic (its not that good).
