Finally Watching X-Men To Educate Myself In Wolverine Lore *Commentary/Reaction*

ur gonna love the sequel. i do love the "pre-quels" just not nr 3, for some reason in both series the 3s suck. the 1st are great the 2d are better and nr 3 suck. in my opionion. and as u got down teh wolveringe/x-men rabbithole. ur gonna get confused. think if it as alternate timelines and stuff and it helps. they do get the lore mixed up and contradicting.

I love listening to angie commentary. Lol

So you're gonna start watching all of the X-Men movies? Or just the ones with Wolverine in them? Either way, this is gonna be one heck of a marathon!

When you think about Magneto, you realize...he's actually not as cool (power wise) as you first thought...his power is basically telekinesis however....it's limited to he can only move metal with his mind...where as regular telekinesis would be you can move anything lol.

Yes, more mutant merriment!

You take away the cameos from Deadpool 3 the story is actually not great. Its not my favorite Deadpool movie.

X2 is so good, holds up to todays movies

To save yourself a big headache. Treat each movie like it is a stand alone movie. If you think of them as a series in a timeline you will lose your mind. Oh and keep watching past the credits. In most there are hints to the next movie.

You must've found out that the kid in the beginning is Magneto and not Wolverine. It's hard to retain information in these fims unless you're familiar with the source material. Magneto was taken from his mother by Nazis because he's Jewish and his ability to manipulate the metal fence was the giveaway for fans. Wolverine ages very slowly and is actually nearly a hundred years older than Magneto

Kelly didn't die, just couldn't control his new powers (shifting into a water form) yet; That's why Magneto asked Storm if she was sure she saw what she thought she saw . . .

Psylocke is mine favorite marvel superheroes and X-men character ever in my heart💙

I'm guessing it was the shock of seeing "Gandalf" that prevented you from connecting the dots that Magneto was the boy in the concentration camp at the start. 😛 Just a heads up, the third movie has a credits scene. A lot of people miss it, so I thought I'd let you know.

When Magneto touched Rouge to transfer his power she now has his memories of living through the holocaust and will carry the memories for the rest of her life.

His hands are sore because it’s cold, and his body is mostly metal

Gotta love Logan, always the wrong man until he isn't the wrong man for the job.

One primer for the franchise; don't try to look for consistency in the timelines. The writers didn't bother, so you shouldn't either

Yes that’s gandalf

Get ready for a series of wildly varying quality. Also, if you're doing the whole series, Deadpool is part of it.

“Oh my god am I watching Twilight?” If this was anything like Twilight, Scott would be Edward and Logan would be Jacob.

I'm glad you're catching up to date with the Marvel movies. These have a different feel, the same as the Spider-Man movies have a diff feel.

The kid in the beginning is Magneto not Wolverine

Angelina Awesome Video Today!!🔥🐐🐐💎

You should definitely watch all the xmen movies.

The little boy at the beginning was Magento.

Check out "When A Stranger Calls(1979)".

Just for a second... STOP TALKING! Maybe some of your questions will be answered if you listened to the dialog instead of talking over it!

All right fun fun fun with Angelina

Deadpool and Wolverine is a cameo palooza so homework on the x-men universe is good.

Xmen movies lets go

X👍

Loved Ange’s reaction every time someone was revealed to be Mystique 🙌 perfection!

More X-men movie commentaries please!! 🙏

I love Angelina's commentary/reaction. It's funny how when I first found her commentary I thought she was annoying. Now I look forward to her uploads. Angelina is cute and amazing ❤

👎

So…just no WWII knowledge at all…? 😂😂😂

Props to Scott for dragging Logan away from the burning car. Wolverine is a lot heavier than he looks.

After seeing your respect for Patrick Stewart (shared by the way) I thought I would offer a VERY early role of his for your consideration. In 1981, John Boorman released "Excalibur". Along side a lot of other faces cinephiles like us have come to know in the decades since, Mr. Stewart portrays Leondegrance (the father of Lady Guenevere) in this highly dramatic and stylized telling of the court of Camelot. Even if you decide it isn't right for your channel, I think it's a movie you might enjoy.

Welcome to the X-Men franchise! The first is such a fun movie and awesome for its time. X2 is good also, though not as good as the first. XM The Last Stand... not so much. XM First Class is an excellent reboot. XM Days of Future Past is less good, and janky in places, especially if you know how much better are the comics that inspired it (also why the F they chose Kitty to be the conduit for time travel is an unnecessary mystery). XM Apacalypse is meh, and XM Dark Phoenix is blech. Sadly XM Origins Wolverine and The Wolverine are mostly rubbish with a few silver linings (namely how awesome Hugh is in them). Logan is one of the best films ever (not just superhero movie either, simply a great standalone film). Deadpools 1, 2, and W are fantastic! New Mutants is not great, clearly suffered from too many chefs in the kitchen overdoing the soup, but I still enjoyed it, and would love a sequel to clean it up (though we'll never get one). Happy watching!

Picard oh sorry Charles!

the continuity of these movies are so wishy washy I'd say dont try to think about it too much or you're gonna hurt your head, and with the movies with james mcavoy and jennifer lawrence are better watched as a softs reboot than actual prequels.

Logan originally wore a yellow uniform in both the comics and the Cartoon!

The Xmen Are My 2nd Marvel Movies From From Graphic Novellas ( Blade IS My Favorite) DeadPool Is 3rd , Avengers, ECT.! My Favorite Graphic Novel To MovieOf All Time Is The Original Crow ( The Other In The Series Are Good!)🫣😱🤗🦸‍♂️🦹‍♀️💥🗯🎛📽💞

Hey, Angelina! The X-Men are Marvel Comics superheroes created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby in 1963.
The film rights were sold to 20th-Century Fox studios in the 1990s.
Therefore, no other Marvel characters could appear in them when the MCU came into existence later and nothing mutant-related could exist in the MCU.
The X-Men movies proved team superhero movies were viable and are the reason we have an MCU and DCEU.

One major problem with the franchise is that there was no plan going in to make a coherent saga so there are MANY CONTINUITY ERRORS!
Another problem is that there is little FIDELITY to the comics other than surface level stuff and the franchise became a showcase for HUGH JACKMAN's Wolverine as the central focus; the comics are much more ensemble pieces. Wolverine is hugely popular among comic readers but the movies became largely his vehicle.

When the franchise was rebooted with a younger cast to clear up continuity and fidelity issues, the only explanation for discrepancies between the two sets of films was that they were taking place in MULTIPLE TIMELINES.
Despite the confusion, X-Men films are all very ENTERTAINING including the duds and boast terrific action and INCREDIBLE CASTS.
The duality between frenemies Charles and Erik is the core of these films. They are allegorical representatives of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X.
The action sequences are predicated on coordinating and nullifying powers which laid the foundation for the best superhero fight ever in cinema as it utilizes the same principles: the airport battle in "Captain America: Civil War"!

The student who phased through the door when Wolverine first meets Xavier is Katherine "Kitty" Pryde and Rogue's role as Logan's mentee in the film was actually Kitty's role in the comics. Rogue is a flight-capable, heavy-hitting adult in the comics who acquired those abilities when she permanently absorbed Carol "Captain Marvel" Danvers' powers by maintaining contact too long! That incident stripped Carol of her memories and put her in a coma!

Jean stopped the bullet from killing the cop but wasn't pyschically dexterous enough to stop a barrage which is why Charles stood down at the train station.
Mutants are born with latent powers that usually manifest at puberty. They are a different species of humanity called HOMO SUPERIOR. Other superheroes acquired their powers in accidents and experiments.
Wolverine smelled Mystique's pheromonal scent which differed from Storm's which is how he knew her appearance to be false. He has heightened senses like a predatory animal.
The yellow spandex quip directed at Logan by Scott is a tongue-in-cheek reference to Wolverine's comic accurate costume now seen in the "Deadpool & Wolverine" trailer!
Every point Senator Kelly made is absolutely valid and your dismissal of them out of hand is ill-considered. The argument for Mutant Registration is identical to the Superhuman Registration Act stipulated in the Sokovia Accords in "Civil War". The two arguments are 100% valid. Would you want your kid to go to school with a kid who could shoot lasers from their eyes or shoot flames from their fingers? I think not.

Now that Disney owns the film rights, fans are excited to see Kevin Feige adapt them properly.
As always, since these are films based on Marvel Comics, STAN LEE has a cameo in most of them. In "X-Men", he was a hot dog vendor on the beach when Senator Kelly emerges from the surf.

X-MEN TIMELINES:
Egypt --> 1845 --> Nagasaki --> First Class --> DOFP --> Origins ------------------------------------------------> X1 --> X2 --> X3 --> Wolverine ----------> New Mutants ----------------------> Logan
Egypt --> 1845 --> Nagasaki --> First Class --> DOFP ----------------> Apocalypse --> Dark Phoenix ------------------------------------------------> Deadpool --> Deadpool 2 -----> DOFP Utopia
Egypt --> 1845 --> Nagasaki --> First Class --> DOFP --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> DOFP Dystopia

DO NOT watch the films in release order! Follow this RECOMMENDED ORDER! It keeps the multiple timelines orderly and ends the series with two strong films rather than with two less well-received entries.
