And that's what I love about this world, the actions of the past have relevance to what we are seeing now, as it should be. None are ever named and this incident is only talked about in the movie, it is never shown. With that said, there was an incident prior to the film's events where Xavier suffered one of these seizures that injured hundreds and killed seven of the other X-Men. If it goes on long enough, people could actually die. You see, Xavier suffers from a form of dementia that, without medication, causes some severe seizures that leaves anyone in the vicinity suffering from temporary paralysis. As far as Charles Xavier is concerned, however, much like Logan, his health has deteriorated to the point that he is not the same. The same biotechnology company that is creating these mutant children from scratch are also the ones, whose experiments, responsible for, essentially, exterminating the mutants, as it were.
RINGER BEST MOVIES 2017 MOVIE
The movie takes place in 2029, 25 years after the birth of the last mutant. I mean the loss of his friends, as him, Xavier and Caliban, officially, are the last X-Men alive. Not just in terms of all the battles he's fought, the wars he's been in. One of the many things that I like about this movie is the fact that Logan carries the weight of everything that has happened to him. His abilities are nowhere near as good as they used to be either. He still heals, but it's not nearly as effective as it used to be anymore and he's in constant pain, so he's turned to alcohol as a painkiller. This movie is about one man saving his soul by helping Laura, a girl created from is DNA by this biotechnology company intent on, of course, creating soldiers from scratch, cross the border into Canada to, hopefully, find a safe haven there. It's not about Doctor Octopus causing havoc in New York and Spider-Man protecting its good citizens from a madman. It's not about the Joker causing chaos in Gotham. It's not about Thanos killing all life on earth with this Infinity Stones. And with that, I must say that this movie is quite unlike every superhero movie I've ever seen. A movie that defies the typical conventions associated with the genre to create something meaningful, with strong characters you care about and surprising emotional depth. A lot has been said about this movie, with some even regarding it as one of the finest superhero movies ever made. This brings us to 2017's Logan, the film that brings us together and the film that serves as Patrick Stewart and Hugh Jackman's final acts as Professor Charles Xavier and Logan/Wolverine, respectively. On the Wolverine front however, in terms of standalone films, we got The Wolverine in 2013. Moving on from that flick, we got X-Men: First Class in 2011 and Days of Future past in 2014, which were both great. Like I loathed it, I remember being really fucking pissed off at how much of a joke Gambit was made out to be, particularly considering the potential that character had to be really fucking cool. I remember really hating this movie with a passion. The franchise, after The Last Stand, needed rebooting and, in 2009, came the first Wolverine movie. The end for the original X-Men film trilogy, obviously, came with The Last Stand, which wasn't that good. 2003 saw the release of X2, which was, at the time, one of the best superhero movies ever made. I'm not saying that without X-Men's success that the MCU would not have existed, but it certainly made it more viable than it was prior to X-Men's release. It allowed them to successfully transition most, if not all (early-to-mid 2000s Daredevil, Elektra come to mind immediately, of their heroes to commercially and critically successful movies. So, really, at the time X-Men came out, it was kind of the saving grace for Marvel. At the time DC was killing it with Burton's first Batman film, so Marvel was playing catch-up in terms of quality. A year a later the first Captain America movie came out and it was somehow even worse than the Punisher. There was a 1989 Punisher with Dolph Lundgren that, apparently, was not very good (depending who you ask). Fast-forward to 2000 and the original X-Men movie comes out which, as far as I can remember, is the first Marvel movie to, you know, be any good. I don't think my fandom of these three heroes shaped my childhood as much as The Simpsons did, which I also grew up loving, but I do have very fond memories of my time spent with these heroes and their stories. I don't remember dressing up as a Spider-Man, but I may have worn a mask or two. I dressed up as Batman AND as Wolverine as a child. I think Venom and Beast were a notch below that to close out my top five as a kid. In fact, my three favorite superheroes had to have been Spider-Man, Batman and, of course, you might have guessed, Wolverine. When I was a young child, I loved the X-Men. I think we need to talk about the X-Men, most specifically Wolverine for a bit.
