YES. And I gasped OUT LOUD when I saw Peter Dinklage was playing Trask (I'm a spoilerphobe, I didn't even know that) and I think the scene in the office, when both him and Jeniffer Lawrence play him, and Mystique is finding out Azazel, Banshee and Angel (And Emma, WTF?) have been killed for research... it was heartbreaking and awesome.
The Charles/Charles conversation remains my absolute favourite though. Queue tears.
I will never understand the timeline though. I mean, seriously, Mystique gets killed for research bt Trask and co. to make the Sentinels, yet she's in X1 to X3. Charles gets killed in X3 but shows up in the Wolverine and here and Logan looses the adamantium IN HIS CLAWS in the same movie, but here they are coated again. WTF. WTF?!?!
I'm too used spoiled to Avengers/Marvel and how much they strive for continuity.
Awww, awesome! I knew about Peter Dinklage, because tumblr and trailer. Yes, I agree, that scene was amazing. Banshee seemed really random, though, whatever happened to Riptide? I suppose it's good that one POC didn't die.
The Charles/Charles scene, and that conversation between Charles and Erik... <333333

WTF?!?!Well, I think they didn't say that Mystique died, just that she was captured? I just assumed that she escaped at some point and that's why she was so firmly anti-human later on
( ... )
When they are telling the story about how they made the sentinels they say they captured Mystique the day she killed Trask, experimented on her AND KILLED HER. so, error 1.
Charles being dead/not dead. Schrödinger's professor.
And in The Wolverine, present-time Logan (post X3) gets his adamantium claws chopped off by the villain (because sure, the strongest, only unbreakable metal on earth can be broken by that same material plot-hole that they had previously used in Wolverine Origins, whatever) Anyway, he loses the adamantium claws, but his natural bone-claws regenerate. He still has an adamantium skeleton (which is why in the after-credits scene he chooses the pat-down at the airport, instead of going through the metal detector) but he no longer has the claws. Flash-forward to the future, and his adamantium claws are back!! Miraculously, as if the writers had tried to forget the Wolverine movies existed (as we, the fans, often try)
I still haven't seen the latest Wolvie move, it's on my to-do list. :D
Well, I suppose one could argue that this is actually an alternate time-line altogether (because I still can't quite accept that the Raven and Charles of XMFC are the same people as in X1, where Mystique basically poisons Charles). I know the movie tries really hard to marry them together, but it doesn't quite jive with me. XMFC always came across as a reboot, and trying to tie them together only partly works for me.
I've never liked Logan, but I found him far better in this film.
I shall ignore this heresy and move on. ;)
Yeah, I have glasses, so even with the 3D-glasses being quite small and comfy now, my glasses were a bit too big, so I ended up having to hold the 3D-glasses up most of the movie. PLUS, no real scenes that jumped out as "wow, yes, this needs to be and is awesome in 3D", I mostly just noticed that it seemed to snow outside the screen now and again. Even the Quicksilver scene that is the one scene I thought would lend itself well to a 3D-screen didn't really feel very, well, 3D.
Yeah, I enjoyed the movie though I kept thinking, Erik is such an asshole. I mean he could've got what he wanted by just letting the Sentinels attack and not show himself. But no, he had to go in front of all the news and declare himself the asshole.
Loved Logan. Loved Peter. Though the whole age thing of the characters messes me up. But I just go with it.
I thought the Raven being Stryker thing meant something else. I just assumed that meant she was the one who turned him into adamantium boy. Which would make her motive? I dunno.

Yeah, I thought that was really weird. What better way to discourage the Sentinels and the future he's been warned about than to show that the Sentinels aren't reliable. Instead, he reinforces that mutants are a threat.

Logan and Peter! \o/ What do you mean with age thing?

Yeah, I don't know either. She prolly just saved him coz it's been her thing this movie, saving mutants, but I like to think that they go on adventures together.

Anyways, liked the movie as a whole.
