"Keep in mind" Feel like there's room for a pun there lol

​@@loganbigmoShaw couldn't help keeping it in mind.

@@loganbigmo Oh, there are so, so many! There are two sides to this coin. There are good reasons why people fear change.

The only problem with that scene is that there are no nerves in the brain. The only pain would be where the coin went in and exited. Still makes for a cool scene though😊

@@loganbigmoIs that just your 2¢?

they have more than just friendship

magneto's reaction when charles died in last stand was phenomenal, both in the moment and when he ripped into one of his own followers for daring think his death was a good thing

i mean id hope a friendship features that

Their friendship was wonderfully performed in this film.

​@@azbycx737yeah, it's a complicated relationship. They have a common goal to protect the mutants but due to their circumstances growing up, opposing visions to achieve that goal. But in the end, they still respect the other as being a fighter for mutants and they will team up to face threats to the entire mutant race

Agreed. If they merge the MCU and Fox, I wouldn't mind for them to recast quite a few characters. But I hope Fassbender gets to reprise his role.

​@@dylanwade9825I don't think they'll keep fassbender. Unkess they do a captain ameruca type of deal to explain how he's srill relatively young, his age will be a big issue for the mcu. Charles can be younger, all the other can be younger. But magneto needs his background story because it justifies his entire motivation. Without it, he's not magneto, he's just some guy with magnetic powers calling himself magneto. I'd love to see fassbender reprise as magneto, but I think they'll cast an older version and come up with an excuse for how he's still alive in 2027 or whatever the mcu year currently is

@@docomega7862 Bro, you write Fassbender with smal f names start with big letters go back to school.

He is exceptional🤌🏻

The fact they killed Darwin, the only black character in the movie with arguably the greatest powerset, never sat well with me either.

comepletely agree its sad they did him like this and the actor did such a great job too, its a sad world

I think they did it as an "oh shit" moment because he's the last character you'd expect to die. That being said, yeah his death was dumb. My headcanon is that his abilities hadn't developed enough to save him but eh.

I knew nothing about him before this movie and still thought it was a stupid death. He was way to cool to die just from the little i’ve seen in this movie.

@@petermillar210 Zoe Kravitz isn't Black?

For real, they did him dirty, his powers have so much potential

Ikr. When I first watched the movie I was 100% sure that he would be in a post credit scene or return in the next one

And they took full advantage of being set in a time period known for civil rights movements.

Nope, Xavier and Magneto being allegories for MLK and Malcolm X is actually a common misconception. In actuality, they are allegories for two Israeli prime ministers.

@@mueggsy lol Erik literally said ‘by any means necessary’ so it’s obvious the movies at least are clearly painting him Malcolm X and Charles as MLK, if you know something different you’re gonna have to give a little more than just no op is mistaken haha

@@mueggsy sorry history phd here you are wrong they are allegories for X and King

@V_4_Versace Sure. I would have linked my source in my comment, but you know how KZfaq is lol. It's titled "Professor X & Magneto Were NOT Based On Martin Luther King & Malcolm X" by Screenrant, you can look it up. I pasted the key quote from the article in the paragraph below. For context, Chris Claremont is the most influential writer on the Uncanny X-Men comics and is the one who developed Magneto's backstory. He is also - like many early comic book writers - jewish, and spent some of his youth in Israel, hence his inspiration for basing Professor X and Magneto off of those two Israeli PMs. "'There’s a lot of talk online now that Magneto stands in for Malcolm X and Xavier stands in for Martin Luther King...but for me, being an immigrant white, to make that analogy felt incredibly presumptuous,' Claremont states. 'An equivalent analogy could be made to Menachem Begin as Magneto, evolving through his life from a terrorist in 1947 to a winner of the Nobel Peace Prize 30 years later.'" (Menachem Begin is the PM Magneto was based on.) Hope this helps!

heh, X-Men pun

it was definitely the absolute worst argument that could have been made at the time.

@@TGPDrunknHick You mean Charles fucked up by saying "those men are simply following orders"?

@@AshishAroraa indeed. there is not a single thing he could have said to save those men that was a worse choice in that moment.

@@TGPDrunknHick Yeah. He didn't know tho. Erik will get triggered with that more.

Is just an excuse to hurt people. So that's very lame to be honest, is just that he is traumatized....are you?

I'm not sure he understood what was going on there.

Probably telling a dick joke.....

you can't? Lol...he definitely jumps the gun on most things before it gets explained or even thinks about it.

@@Dugrath Actually you make a good point 🤣

It's pretty corny, the way it's delivered and the way the scene is filmed, if there were last emphasis in making it cool and were delivered more naturally it could have been better, execution is key

Right? 😂

@@alexhefnerstvmovievaultI warned you lol

Only thing he forgot was that they also forget half of the things that happened in their own timeline when making another movie lol. Truly the messiest timeline in movie history.

Same timeline as DC and Marvel

This math problem brought to you by Fox's X-men: Erik is older than Charles who is the same age as Emma Frost but Emma is younger than Scott Summers. Alex Summers is younger than Charles but is Scott's younger brother. Raven is the same age or older than Charles but younger than Logan. So how old is Azazel?

That’s actually so funny 😂

Do they have the same bromance in comics?

@@AshishAroraaeven more…one does not exist without the other.

@@GhostDrummerooooh please elaborate on that!

I didn’t know they were night crawlers parents….although mystique seemed to not know him in apocalypse

@@ronaldgoodrichjr5878 I don't know if it's canon in the movies

in the books Mystique is much older than Prof X.

Which is why Magneto had such an effect on her. He offered what she *most* wanted in a way that nobody else did.

Relax, it's a comic book character with a power that doesn't exit. Chill.

@@NicolasCharly thanks for pointing out the obvious, the whole thought exercise is in the realm of fiction. Your whole comment is completely irrelevant to everything I said so maybe you should learn some comprehension before telling people to chill

@@Jimandtonic85wow someone is upset chill out

@@JaySmooth32 you know, my generation grew up being able to have discussions with our peers and actually have things to say. In today’s age, everyone just wants to shout words no matter how little sense they make so they can feel relevant. Neither your comment or the last has anything of substance to it and was not worth commenting but yet you feel you must call me mad and feel you are somehow contributing by saying chill. I have not once been upset. Maybe have something to say before you say it.

The XMen, Blade and Deadpool are Marvel, they might not be in the Marvel Cinematic Universe yet but they are still Marvel. Spider-man was Sony for ages before entering the MCU but was always Marvel

@@glenmartin7978 exactly

Magneto will deliberately be a good person when he doesn't feel like he has to prove shit.

i love the bromance between charles and erik. fassbender and mcavoy's dynamic was so good on screen and you can really feel that they care about each other so much.

It's my favorite minor moment of the film!!!! The way I rave about those 5 seconds. Erik sees Charles on the floor of the jet, and he throws himself to protect him. I just -chefs kiss- so good.

I have seen this movie a few times and this reaction was the first time I actually noticed it. So awesome. You can find new stuff every time you watch this movie. :)

Completely agree. It’s such a quick scene, but it has always been one of my favourite moments in the entire X-Men series.

Older brother-in the movies but cyclop's younger bro in the comics

Yeah .. is there a painting somewhere of the Bramble Bush that is X-Family Relations ?

It is the best X-men movie if you don’t count Logan as an x-men movie

AGREED.Saw this film at the cinema and was thrilled to the-BONE !!! LOL. The time-jump was unexpected,but,necessary.LOVED the way it's tied toa historical event.Jennifer Lawrence is-GORGEOUS-in this film.

Charles and Erik should ALWAYS steal the show. They're the heart of the Xmen comics origins, and the movies have had two perfect rounds of casting for them. Marvel better nail them when they decide to do the Xmen in the MCU

You can say Magneto “steeled” the movie

I'll forever remember this movie as the one that got me to read the marvel comics when it came out

I honestly sometimes wonder how this dude got through college & law school when I’ve never seen him be able to follow a film🤣

@@goldenageofdinosaurs7192well if she wasn’t shooting he wouldn’t be paralyzed lol so it is her fault as well

She did tho lol she’s the one shooting the gun…both did it

@@Caraxes_RoguePrince Yes, somebody who agrees with me. Thank goodness!! I actually have a list of reasons as to why it is not just Erik's fault. But anyway, I just posted this comment. "So many things I can say about this movie. I adore it. I will say right now, that I do not think Erik is exclusively to be blamed for what happened to Charles. Be pissed at me all you want (not you specifically Alex, just a general statement), I say there is shared blame to be had there with Moira. Please tell me somebody out there agrees.... And I'm not taking the blame entirely off of Erik. Just saying there is an argument for shared blame. Honestly nervous to post this because I feel like people are going to come after me in the comments and people can be effing mean as hell. But.... I'm risking it. Who knows. Maybe that was said so Erik could....see the possible negative repercussions? Maybe somehow in Charles' mind he thought that would help something. I'm not sure. But I still say, it is shared."

@@goldenageofdinosaurs7192 He wasn't confused. But he did see it as her paralyzing him. There's a difference

I don't understand...i can't remember the movie very well, but if Charles couldn't hold Shaw for long time, what was he supposed to do with him if magneto doesn't kill him?

@@KaiserM3probably just knock him out to neutralize him, then let the cia take over for arrest. But that all changed once the they turned their guns on the island

Wolverine was suppose to say "fuck off" in that scene.

@@kanukki84 Which is why McAvoy says this in DOFP, cause the screenwriters for it looked at the script for _First Class_ where that's what Wolvie's line was

@@loganbigmo Thank you 😊

😂

He couldn't have killed him if he had tried. Shaw was way too powerful and Eric was a child.

@@dmanimousprime3858 But...Shaw didn't have any powers at that point when Eric was a child. Remember, on the yacht Shaw said his powers kept him young? He looked considerably older in that first opening scene with little Magneto, and he was clearly looking for Mutants to experiment on as indicated by the laboratory behind the glass wall. I believe at that point, Shaw had no powers and was working for a way to give himself abilities. True, the movie never actually confirms any of this, but it's kind of implied.

@@starbrand3726 Shaw is a mutant, he got his powers when he was a teen like every other mutant

​@@Jmgjgdjd5Erik didn't knew that tho.

He was a child, i assume.

Also, it’s so funny when you surprise yourself and then go “What??” like you’re just saying your intrusive thoughts out loud but don’t process it until afterwards

Agreed, Days of Future past is better

I know right. DOFP is also so sad too. Its my favourite of the franchise along with First class.

Xmen Days of Future past is the best one in the whole series for me, but people always seem to forget about First Class. It deserves credit for sure. I think it has been kind of tainted by the newer Xmen movies. They were soo meh compared to First Class and it's such a shame bc they had such a great cast for a new era of Xmen movies and the writer's went and ruined it.

the hold cherik has on me is crazy

@@chanele1530 same, till this day I just love it

Fuck yeah

"Kick-Ass" is right up Alex's alley, so to speak. He needs to do them.

Matthew Vaughn is fucking GOATED.

Matthew Vaughn also made Kingsman. The first Kingsman is one of my all time favourite movies

​@@JuLiane #EdgarWright4Kingsman

Absolutely Rogue Cut. Fills in some plot holes and there's badass chase scene

Hey yo I’m down with this 100%.

Rogue Cut, yes.

Excuse me .... ROGUE cut???

Where can I find it?

And when fighting the Hulk, the power to adapt teleported him away. The literal real best defense against the Hulk, don't be there.

@@MorderElg Yeah. There was one point where he was infected with a virus or something that targeted the nervous system and his powers made him a sponge because they don't have nerves. lol His powers are wild.

And she just made the series go off the rails in that she was a mutant with a really weird power

DOFP was crazy cool. Such a bizarre and unique idea that just worked really well.

Forgot his escape scene in X2- another iconic moment

The X-Men team were done perfectly in this movie. From them joining Charles, learning how to use their powers, and team building with beautiful character development. The other movies didn’t come close to it

I grew up on the original X-Men trilogy but this one is my most favorite movie in the X-Men universe. I seriously loved Michael Fassbinder and James McAvoy's portrayal as Charles and Erik. They had good chemistry and even the philosophical aspects of the movie were great where you can get both sides between Erik and Charles's ideology instead of original movies where mostly Erik's side is seen as bad and Charles's side is seen as good.

It always freaks me out to think of banshee and moira together with this cast, l o l

​@@tinkinc85Ayo the disadvantage of knowing as a X-Men nerd 👀

i just think dark phoenix was pretty bad but personally i loved apocalypse 🤷🏾‍♀️🫢

X3's flashback is 1986, not 1990s, and Xavier walking at the end of Origins is 1979, but yeah. Truly a messy, muddy timeline.

Spoiler for Days of Future past (just in case anyone hasn't seen it yet, other than Alex...) . . . . Technically Professor X walking in the flashbacks in the trilogy don't HAVE to be retconned, since in Days of Future past Beast develops a drug that allows X to walk. X of course stops taking it because it prevents him from using his mutant powers, but in the time period in between there may have been other versions of the drug that had either less severe side-effects (perhaps just limiting his powers instead of preventing him from using them completely.) Of course, by the original trilogy time period X has given up on that and has just accepted being paralyzed.

He could easily have just been making them believe he was walking. Not sure why he would but its plausible

@@loganbigmo Cheers, idk why I remembered Origins bleeding into the early 1980s.

@@SuperDrocket Honestly, that explanation is so flimsy that I'd rather go with a full retcon than believe in all the possible explanations

That's true. By giving you an analogy, he's basically like your normal employee in a company who's not happy with his job and just doing it for the money. He's not happy with what his doing, he's not invested with what his doing but doing it anyways since he's earning money.

​@@humweveveshitty analysis

@@humwevevehanks for the armchair analysis kiddo very helpful👍

​@@humweveveharsh

@@humweveve Yikes, I wouldn't say that. My mom also loves watching movies but sometimes I won't believe the things SHE misses either. You can tell from the way Alex reacts that he does care about this. That's why I still watch him, he feels actually genuine

I love this

I actually think it's one of the worst, but it's still mostly good. I like 1- mostly for the style and origin. Objectively speaking, it's not the best, but still good story and acting, etc. I always liked 3 the most, but now think it's not at the top. This and most of the others are good. I think Logan is the best and 2. I also personally love the Origins movie, but it has its problems. Raven's acting in 1-3 is far beyond these movies. Jen just cannot act and is wrong for the role. Most overrated woman in Hollywood, possibly. Also, isn't the whole 'mind in twin' thing fan-made, or at least not actually official? I don't remember that from The Last Stand.

@@SwitchTalkChannel I'm not a comic reader but I think the whole twin thing is an adaptation of something in the comics

​@@SwitchTalkChannel I liked Last Stand too but I know it has flaws especially through comics lore. First Class really captures Charles and Erik's dynamics so well and puts in interesting points on both of their ideologies. The only issue with this is the duality of Emma being in two separate timelines and Darwin being done so dirty when his power literally is about adaptation. I agree about Jennifer being a miscast cause her version of Raven just ain't what made Raven cool. Raven is given so much extra screentime in her version that too for scenes that goes opposite to what she actually is that it makes her character look pathetic. The "mind in twin" is actually a plot from the comics. Charles had a twin brother who was born brain dead because of Charles's powers during the womb. They still kept him on the bed under medicine usage, so when at one point Charles died, he transferred his conscience to his brother's body.

In the comic his twin is super evil (because of course) and has the most base motivation: survival. Prof X tried and failed to kill her while next to her in utero. She's brilliant but views every other mutant as a threat to herself. She created a mountain sized sentinel that wiped out millions on Genosha and destroyed the Shi'ar empire by manipulating Lilandra and her imperial guard. I would actually like to see some elaboration on the comatose twin in the movie. Did Charles wipe his brother's mind when he found a psychic that might one day threaten himself?

@@VolguusZildrohar Old comics or new comics? What was the year that they wrote that into the comics, do you know?

That’s awesome 😂

@@alexhefnerstvmovievault Oh I laughed my ass off at that scene because I had a feeling xD

Freedom does not exist without security, the opposite is also true. In times of peace, freedom is more important; in times of war, security/order is more important

Alex in the comics is Cyclops' younger brother*
