I want to see a movie Wolverine in his iconic mask more than I want R rated violence.

The previews do look good but still.

I really don't understand why they haven't showed him in that suit yet. Hell ....we haven't seen a lot of the costumes that the Xmen are suppose to wear.

The First Class costumes where great homage to the original X-Men costumes. Apocalypse was pretty spot on with several characters.

I didn't mind the black leather look in the first couple as that was still in the early days of the superhero movie boom. Now there isn't much of an excuse.

I'm sure the movie will be very good, my problem is it's just too little too late. This franchise is somewhere between dying and dead.

The MCU and the train wreck that is the DCEU have taken everyone's attention now. No one cares anymore about Logan/Xavier/multiple timelines.

Well I disagree, I actually thought overall that Apocalypse was a better film than Civil War.

I was very disappointed with the Civil War fight scenes in what looked like an abandoned airport.

I liked Apocalypse but in no way was it better than Cival War.

I think the Airport was purposefully evacuated.

So any thoughts on Logan?

I decided to let the crowds die down a little and go next weekend?

I really enjoyed it. Makes me wonder why every Wolverine movie wasn't R-rated honestly.

Deadpool really helped out Logan with it being a successful R rated superhero movie. I don't think this movie would've been as good with the editing needed for PG-13

Definitely agree. From that first scene alone, I thought to myself this is what a Wolverine movie should look like.

Well you're one of the very few; Apocalypse was a mess of a film.

Saw it Friday. It was amazing, but would have been so much better if some d-bags wouldn't have posted spoilers on Facebook.

I have taken my son to see every x-men movie...cant take him to see this one because it has 45 Fbombs, 45 other 4 letter words, and tits bare naked. Great way to ruin a good father and son time by adding stuff to the movie that is completely unnecessary for plot or character development.

You guys can call me a prude if you want, I have raised my kids the right way and stand by it. We don't swear, drink or drug, and we don't watch R rated programs in my home. So something that we were really looking forward to is not going to happen. Life goes on, we will find something else to do. Movies based on comic books, which are meant for kids, shouldn't be rated R. Ridiculous.

Hugh Jackman has been in 8 other X-Men films besides this one that are rated PG-13, so it isn't like you don't have other choices for your kids to watch his portrayal of the character...

This film is an adaptation of the Old Man Logan line of comics, which is not catered to kids whatsoever and is more of a graphic-novel type storyline. It never was going to be kid-friendly, and the box office numbers prove it was a good decision.

Hate it for you and your son and respect how you are choosing to raise him. With a son who is about to turn one in just a couple of days, it's something I already think about how I'll handle down the road.

However, just because it was based on a comic book does not mean it was meant for a kid. Are you familiar at all with the comic series that this version of Wolverine is based on? Except for the fact that it's illustrated like another comic might be, there is nothing kid friendly about it. This is basically some X-Men/comic characters you know dropped in the world of McCarthy's The Road. I mean, there's a hillbilly gang of kids comprised of the grandchildren from an incestuous relationship between Hulk and his cousin. The movie didn't keep the same story lines as the comic but they still wanted that to be the world it was set in.

I'll be honest... I wasn't a huge fan of the Old Man Logan story and the hillbilly Hulks were a big reason for that. (Don't even get me started on the Secret Wars "sequel").

I did however like Mark Millar's first Wolverine run, Enemy of State, much more.

Well F----

Bare naked tits? That's another story
But hell, I've already seen Jackman's bare naked tits, so no biggie.
