Haha, I see now where I went wrong. If I had not shouted that there were murders taking place then none of the townspeople would have known about them! Also, Hugh-Jacked-man is great!

Jacqueline

What a shame we won't see more of him in the live action films. I would have like to have seen a Gambit movie.

Jacqueline

Thank you! That was a bit confusing.

Jacqueline

Good point!

Jacqueline

That's really funny!😂

Watching this reaction, I just realized that Stryker injected Kayla with a prescription I take for hypertension 😂 😂 😂

Richard Flores

4:39. As a Richard, I love that joke!

Jacqueline

The opening scenes were so great!

Jacqueline

Ooh, thanks for pointing that out!

Jacqueline

That's amazing! I know this movie gets criticized a lot, but I really did like it. 😅

Jacqueline

Ooh! That makes so much sense. I thought his magic was playing card specific.

Jacqueline

Good to know! I'll keep that in mind going into the Deadpool movie.

Jacqueline

Gambit was great!

Please don't think too much about the continuity of these X-Men movies. They didn't have a decades-long plan like the MCU. I'm not saying they're not good, love my OG Spider-Man and X-Men movies. It's just that MCU changed the game. And X-Men did a decent job matching their energy, but it was done after the Iron Man 2.

And yet his accent as heard in the animated series was less outrageous than it was "written" in the comics! :-)

2:06 "OK, if that's Wolverine, then how come his dad doesn't have healing powers as well?" Might I suggest looking up the term "mutant?" :-) 2:25 "Bury the bodies, no one has to know." Now this is the practical advice that keeps me coming back! (Oh, and Thomas Wolfe begs to differ regarding going back home.) 2:37 How did they know? Because *somebody* loudly exclaimed: "Oh my God! There are murders galore happening!" 2:59 Dunno, but: "Canadians were largely opposed to slavery, and Canada had recently become the terminus of the Underground Railroad. Close economic and cultural links across the long border, also encouraged Canadian sympathy towards the Union. Between 33,000 and 55,000 men from British North America enlisted in the war, almost all of them fighting for Union forces." 3:40 And you can test your knowledge of math by checking how many generations separate Logan and Rogue... (Sorry, I meant Marie.) 4:13 NO! "U" would make him Strucker; this is "Y," Stryker! We already covered that! :-P 4:39 "How would you like to really serve your country?" The in-character answer would be a slightly more familiar version of: "We're Canadians, richardhead!" 9:09 "Hugh looks way more jacked in this movie." Following this, they started calling him "Hugh Jacked-man." Ba-dum-tss. 9:44 Or proof that Lamby, who has been hitherto suspiciously absent, is a good prompter.

28:46 Gambit (Remy Etienne LeBeau) is one of my favourite X-Men characters thanks to the X-Men Animated Series. He has the ability to create, control, and manipulate pure kinetic energy. I can't say that the film did him justice but it was nice to see him in live action. X-Men Origins is the only time we see Gambit in live action :( Channing Tatum was actually meant to play the character in a Gambit film revealed at the 2015 comic con where Tatum attended in a Gambit shirt but the project was cancelled. Gambit himself was only introduced in The Uncanny X-Men #266 (Aug. 1990) and would later be popularized by the X-Men: Animated Series in 1994. This would be the first time a voice was given to the character so hearing his Cajun accent made him an iconic character with a really cool personality. X-Men 97 does feature Gambit so that's the most recent appearance of the character mon ami :)

Yeah, don't search clues where they're not, it's just a coincidence (and maybe because Lagos is one of the biggest city in Africa)

Just for you to know, Victor, Logan's brother, is Sabertooth, the same character who where with with Magneto in the fist X-Men movie and in the comics he is Wolverine nemesis.

Aside from the whole "Deadpool" situation, the mediocre CGI, and timeline inconsistencies in this movie. It's not too bad. It could have been great but alas. The opening scenes are top notch though. I also really love Liev Schreiber as Victor/Sabertooth

Lamar Smith

Now that you’ve seen ‘First Class,’ I’m not sure if you caught ‘Havok’s’ name but it’s ’Alex Summers.’ Ring a bell? He and ‘Scott/Cyclops’ were brothers in the comics. They both have huge offensive powers they struggle to control based on beam/laser/energy use.

Wolverine is absolutely one of my favorite Marvel characters, so much that I named my son Logan but had I seen this movie before he was born, I might have changed my mind. 😂

Gambit can charge objects with kinetic energy so when somebody or something is hit with said object it affects them like a concussive blast or really hard punch. He just likes using playing cards.

Michael Morris

Just keep in mind: The "Deadpool" in this movie is wrong in pretty much every way possible, except for the actor they got to play him. Even Ryan Reynolds was upset about this movie's version of Deadpool.
