Last week we watched X-Men, Days of Future's Past, on Wednesday evening, then watched The Wolverine on Friday evening. They both came from the X-Men blu-ray pack.
By the time we watched The Wolverine, I have totally forgotten the story line of the X-Men movie. All I remember was, I enjoyed X-Men.
I couldn't say the same thing about The Wolverine. I really don't like the fact that just because he could heal himself quickly, so people keep trying to kill him or blast him into pieces. What kind of life is that? Unfortunately, for Logan, it was an immortal life, which made it even more sad.
What kind of sick person would try to get the power from the person who saved him from nuclear bomb explosion, and said: "I know you lived a long and painful life, and I can give you a chance to die a normal person's death, to end all of this. And in return, I will take your powers from you." What is this sick and twisted logic?
All I can say is, The Wolverine is not a movie for me. It's too violent and bloody.
Yesterday, Jack and I were both trying to piece together which story happened before the other, and we decided The Wolverine happened before X-Men, Days of Future's Past, although we weren't exactly sure. I kept saying, but Logan lost his adamantium claws in The Wolverine, though. Did he have his adamantium claws in the X-Men movie? We couldn't be sure. Then Jack had a discovery, well, in X-Men, Logan went back to 1975, and then he changed the future since then so maybe that's why he had his claws.
Finally we both laughed. Some silly screenplay making things so confusing, and we spent our nice weekend figuring things out. Maybe someone just made a series of mistakes in the scripts to make a quick buck.
Shortly after, we dropped the topic.
