Fun Fact: Wolverine actually has a really fast healing factor, but it is being slowed by constantly being poisoned by his adamantium skeleton. So his healing in the intro is his full power.
Another fun fact is that it’s like a muscle. The more he’s using it the stronger/quicker it gets
And even then he still has like the third fastest healing in Marvel. To put in perspective how crazy his is, remember technically Spider-Man also has a healing factor, just without the mass-dimension thing and much slower.
And in some issues his healing was practically instant so virtually no regenerative time, it's healed as fast as he got hurt but that meant that his animalistic nature was more pronounced. I think Odin or Zeus or someone should make a metal for him that is stronger than adamantium without the poisoning side effect then bam immortal wolverind
@@Junakiba966 Can you imagine if the gods gave him Uru metal and imbued it with magic lol. He would be so over the top
More fun fact: healing is NOT full power. He has many heightened feral instincts and senses
Wolverine going to Japan is one of his most famous storylines in the comics
Can you tell me the name of that comic book ?
Wolverine.
It's a four-issue limited series by Frank Miller👍 @@Tushar_995
@Random_Guy_995 several I think!
And Madripoor.
I got my intro to Wolvie w/ my dad's Giant Size Xmen annual at the Dallas Fair. But, almost immediately started collecting his title comic which took us into the Asian culture. So, of course I was immediately confused. But, grew to love the visceral imagery of the darker side of comics in my early teen years.
@@Tushar_995 The first Wolverine mini-series, if I recall, covers this movie a bit. Comics wise, we discover his first connection to Japan early on in the beginning of his run as an "X-men" member, when the team is rescued at sea by a Japanese freighter, and the team is shocked when he converses with the crew in fluent Japanese. This was all during the run that transitioned the team from the original (Cyclops, Jean, Beast, Iceman, Angel), to the "New" team which included Wolverine, Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, etc.
Logan and the bear can communicate on a basic level because of Wolverines empathy.
He seems to have a lot of natural instincts as well.
@@reactswithjaxyeah one of Wolverine mutant abilities is he can communicate with animals.
@@ajwebhead21That is not one of his mutant abilities lol. Wolverine spent a lot of time in the Canadian wilderness and sometimes ran with wolf packs, making him more feral. It’s kind of like a trick he picked up while camping, not a mutant ability.
Yeah, nothing to do with empathy or mutant abilities. In the comics, he lived and spent a lot of time in the wilderness. He could sneak up on deer and touch them. And predators viewed him as a threat so they wouldn’t attack him. You don’t see predators attacking each other unless it’s absolutely necessary
To film that shirtless fight scene at night, Hugh Jackman prepared for 3-months, training and exercising, and continuously increasing the amount of water he was drinking all the while. Close to the end he said he was drinking the upwards of 10 liters of water a day. But then right before the shoot he went on a 36-hour water fast, so come time to film he is extremely dehydrated and has no water weight on his body whatsoever, and thus making him look like he did. It's very dangerous, and very unpleasant, and he was fighting every urge not to faint, but... he's Hugh Jackman. Gotta love him.
Wow, he really committed to this role. He really does look fierce!
Wow! The very opposite of his role in Les Miserable!!
@@reactswithjaxthat is why he will always be my Wolverine the dedication is insane and trust me he will get bigger after this movie
I heard his health was impacted during filming the more recent film due to all the extreme behavior.
It sounds like a pretty common acting diet, but taken to an extreme. They're paid to look good, not necessarily to be healthy, right? It scares me, personally.
The thing nobody talks about is that Logan can feel everything, he doesn't have an ability to turn off the pain, even with his healing factor his claws coming out and even being out hurts him but he's just been able to push that pain aside and keep going
3:30 The pants are actually a mutant named Trou Zor. His powers are immunity to fire and such and superhuman wicking abilities. Unsung hero of the X-Men series. (Fun fact, his human name is Melvin.)
His brother is the Hulk's pants...
I thought his name was A.S. Bestos
Poor Melvin
Let's be honest, its not really about the pants, she just wanted to see him without the pants.
Ah yes Trou Zor the leader of the PeeGee 13 team. An underrated Xmen team.
“You asked me to come say goodbye…Sayonara!”
One of the best wolverine lines ever
Such a great line!
The resistance of those pants was due to being made from a very special cloth, called "Plot Armor Censor Shielding Aganist Ratings", a very magical substance that permeates so many movies and comics alike, for it is imbued with the magical Will of the Writer (or Director, when the former wasn't even bothered to explain anything), using the Female Emporered (he he, sorry, I can't help myself) magical Rune "Just Because".
This is a special cloth I have come across before in my years watching movies. I should have known his pants were cut from the cloth!
@@reactswithjax Thought you wouldn't like my snarky jab at the "female empowered". Glad that you're a good sport.
"You should not be screaming at him... speak to him in a calming voice.. maybe light a scented candle" 🤣😂🤣
In the heat of the moment people sometimes say the first thing that enters their adorable little heads.
In The Last Stand Charles talks about transfering someone's consciousness to a brain-dead body, which in the end is what he does when he's about to be killed by Jean. The body in question was apparently a twin brother of his, whose consciousness he unintentionally destroyed while in the womb (allegedly), hence why he looks the same here. I've read on some other places that he's still in a wheelchair, even though it's technically a different body, because his inability to use his legs is psychosomatic to some degree, related to his powers.
That's interesting! Thanks for sharing that.
I've heard that as well, but if true. It would be kind of ironic that someone who is a master of the mind is being kept in a wheelchair through psychosomatic means.
@@donaldseale2700 I always heard it was a "focus on the mind to the detriment of the body" type of thing.
@@jamesweible5357 Could be, but you still can't deny the irony. Personally, I would prefer if they used a reasoning like, since the body had been comatose for however many decades it was, the muscles in the legs had atrophied beyond the point of repair.
@@donaldseale2700 The problem with that argument is it would hold true for the rest of the body as well.
Rolling onto the car like that stops your legs getting broken. Remember it for if someone tries to mow you down. 😂
It saves your legs but puts your head right into the windshield XD
@stiimuli gotta get a good roll in, hope you ride it onto the roof XD
And rather roll over the top than go down and get driven over.
That editorial interlude, discussing his pants, is among the most charming things I’ve seen in a very long time. Thank you for being you, Jax.
Thank you so much!! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! ❤
Never realised about his pants. After all these years
It may be possible due to the detonation and penetration factor of the bomb? Also, dependent upon how far down in the hole his upper body was compared to the lower part. Maybe...that part of his body was just low enough...it didn't effect the pants? Or...plot armor, of course 😂😂
The other person Charles transferred his consciousness into was Charles' twin. When they were in the womb together they both got the same power because they are identical twins. However, due the intensity of their mutant ability only one of them had the opportunity to form a consciousness. The other twin was a blank slate this whole time until Charles moved his consciousness into his twin's body before being killed by Jean. This was a known backup plan as the nurses knew if he ever awoke, it would be Charles who implanted his consciousness.
I've been hearing a lot lately about Prof X having a sister, I could have sworn she was described as a twin as well. Is that not the case? If he had a male twin who was also telepath, and a sister non twin who was also telepath, were his parent also telepaths? Why are all their children super strong telepaths?
This seemed like a plot hole to me when I was younger mainly because, I didn’t remember any mention of Charles having a brother on standby. Maybe Deadpool 3 will mention this!
@@jamesweible5357 I didn't know this until recently, but Charles has an evil twin sister named Cassandra Nova. As much as I want to look her up, she may appear in future marvel films, so I'd rather be surprised, personally.
@@TheLegendOfRandy I've been hearing this lately too. So did the writers screw up, was this different universes, stuff like that makes me wonder.
Some fun facts about Wolverine: having claws and healing powers aren't the only powers logan has. part of logan's mutation is him having Animalistic behavior, appearance and abilities which is why he is hairy and that his hair appears to look like cat ears, he also growls a lot and when he screams it sounds more like a roar.
other abilities include enhanced sense of smell like a hound making him an excellent tracker, he also has inhanced sense of hearing like a bat or owl and lastly, probably one of the most underrated ability logan has is that he can communicate with animals (not talk to them) mostly predators such as wolves and bears, that is why he took it personally when those hunters shot/poisoned the bear, because he felt the fear and pain the bear was going through. in the comics wolverine actually prefers animals over people that he mostly spend his time in the woods if his not drinking in a bar/ being involved in a bar fight.
and one more thing, logan is not immortal, he ages but very very slow due to his healing ability
He has so many great abilities!
It was 9 words. The captions didn't include the soft "of" before "what's going on." Captions never match the audio or script exactly, they purposefully change it.
You could also count "don't" as 2 words I guess
@@stiimuli or what's
i think because he said A, when he got punch xD
Hahaha jax we know why u wanted they pants burned off 😂 always a breath of fresh air watching ur cheery self 😂 never change mate
Thank you!!
@@reactswithjax ur welcome 💪🏻
"But how are this man's pants still on his body?! You're telling me that an H-bomb just went off and your skin was totally burned off your body but your pants somehow stayed completely unmarked?! They're not singed off?! Isn't clothing like highly flammable? This just makes no sense to me! I mean...I would imagine that your pants are more flammable than your skin! What kind of pants...what are his pants made out of?"
Wow. Somebody is working overtime to rationalize their disappointment in not seeing some full frontal Wolverine onscreen!
pervs gonna perv.
That's what I have been thinking. 😅
Ryan George did a great joke about Wolverine's pants in The Last Stand pitch meeting 😂
Writer Guy: "All his clothes disintegrate..."
Producer Guy: "PG-13!"
Writer Guy: "His shirt disintegrates but his pants are fine..."
In the comics Logan married Mariko afterwards and to show respect to Clan Yashida he wore a brown and gold costume which was the clans colors.
There's a deleted scene for this movie where they give it to him at the end of the movie.
“I see you on your back, there's blood everywhere. You're holding your own heart in your hand"
So hard not to say what we really want to say 😂 but Jax deserves better.
You need a whole line of merch with the phrase "Hot Chocolate Stained Fashionista" I would love a mug with that!😂
That is hysterical! Now I want merch that says that!! 😂
@@reactswithjax If you do make that, I want a free one ! Just kidding. I will gladly buy one! 😀
I *really* enjoyed the interlude from Editor Jax. 😂 I frequently get thrown down rabbit holes of Googling while in the middle of watching a movie or series when something incongruous or tangential occurs to me, but this was far more amusing.
Going down Google rabbit holes is such a delightful way to waste time! I'm glad you enjoyed it!! ❤
Loads, yes. And I was always the guy (before the internet had everything) to whom people would ask questions about any obscure subject, and expect an answer. Even if it took weeks or months, I would be carrying around scraps of paper with questions and answers (when found) to be returned to the askers. Sometime in the early 2000s, one of my friends told me that when he was asked which search engine he preferred, he replied, “my favorite search engine is Terry!” 😂 Thank goodness for Google, Wikipedia, and all of the others (plus smartphones on which to store Qs & As), my pockets are now empty of paper! 😁
But yes…now I probably spend too much time just following links, accumulating random facts.
I love how disappointed she is that Logan didn't lose his pants😏
His pants are made of the same stuff that hulk's pants are. :P
It would make sense that they all have special clothing with special properties made by someone with special talents.
I'm guessing its Edna Mode.
@@stiimuli My guess is Edna Mode as well. Makes sense!
In the comics Reed Richard’s developed molecular clothing. Clothing that changed shape with the body. Pretty much spandex that molecularly hugs the body.
Also im glad you started watching Daredevil series, Jessica Jones and The Punisher are both a must watch too!
Daredevil is amazing! I love Matt!
@@reactswithjax you'll see him in MCU soon (im not gonna tell where and when)
@@raphaelsadili Why would you even say that?
Hugh is perfect as Wolverine. It'll be one of the hardest recasts in my lifetime I think. Makes me laugh when fanboys get all technical about how he's too tall for the role. Yeah, have fun finding a 5'3 dude who can match Hugh's take. Suits the character being taller anyway, better than the short angry man trope.
Hugh is great but not perfect. He's too tall. I read a while ago that Tom Hardy could be cast as a new Wolverine.
@shinmopi Tom Hardy isn't much shorter than Hugh Jackman. 4 or 5 inches at most. Probably closer to Hugh Jackman in height than he is to Wolverine's comic height so it's a pointless thing to aim for in casting. Besides, he's currently still pinned to the Venom role, can't see him being cast for Wolverine. Taron Egerton is more likely but I'm not convinced on him in the role either. I can see them skipping Wolverine altogether and going with X-23 in his place, possibly letting Jackman see out the role of Wolverine in his last days.
He's also not nearly hairy enough. :p
@@marcw6875 😂😂 makeup department
@@jamesh2401 Im not sure if Taron Egerton has the biological physique to build up that much bulk to be seen as wolverine. Alan richardson (Reacher) though...he has the height, acting talent and muscle in spades.
When Yukio says he dies with his heart in his hand, it was foreshadowed, but not in the way you think. I'll continue enjoying your reaction to this film series. Can't wait for Logan.
Filmed here in Australia - it makes no sense at all that Wolverine would know a single plane was carrying a nuke bomb.
That's a really good point!
I have seen this movie five times and I've never once thought about the ridiculousness which you point out at @7:46. Logan comes in to a bar looking like a murder hobo, stabs a man in the hand and threatens him with death, then a prophet comes in and predicts everyone's death in the room, AND THEN a guy pulls a gun.
Bravo! I watch your reactions for these awesome insights!
In the comics, most of the hero clothing is actually based on Reed Richards' design/creation called "Unstable Molecules", which he created for the Fantastic Four, so their outfits would adapt to their powers without being destroyed/lost.
That's so cool!!
16:20 It actually hurts the same evry single time regarless of his healing power, the healing power just repairs the cut of the blades through his nuckles but the pain is present everytime they come out, he just gets used to the pain :)
The director of this film brought some real reverence for the 80s/90s art. Several shots are pulled directly from comic pages & covers
That's wonderful!
Don't is an abbreviation. So she counted Don't as do not, hence the additional word.
'What's' is as well for 'What is'.
@@keithboddy So the math still doesn't work out to nine!
You really think she broke up "don't", in her head, to make it two words? That's the story you're going with?
Don't is a contraction.
1:45 yes, Wolverine in WWII! In all the textbooks! He wears Hulk tech stretch fireproof pants! And there is a ton, in the comics, of naked feral shadowy Wolverine after being immolated 🔥! PTSD is his life!
Yea Wolverine has some of the most trauma and PTSD, the good moments in his life actually make it worse.
@@crystall.411 oh man! How so? Like Yuriko, Jean?
Worked in oil field for many years. We have to wear "FR" clothing. "Flame/fire resistant. Designed not to go up in flames and melt to your skin in the event of an explosion or arc flash from high voltage breakers/closets. Does it work? No idea, thankfully!
43:55 the "Fire mode" of the sword is a reference to the powers of the comic book mutant Silver Samurai. His power is to create tachyon field around an object (commonly his katana) to create a weapon that can cut through almost anything (Adamantium being one of the things it can't cut)
Thanks for explaining that!
she wanted to see him without pants on so bad she stopped editing and fired the camera back up just to rant about it😂
Love you Jacqueline ❤ thanks for sharing and being here with us 🙏
Thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️
"Wouldn't it be nice if Logan could share his healing abilities." Congraduations Jax! You 'devined' the theme of this movie at only 6.5 minutes in. Either you are well educated or have natural literary talent.
“How to spell flammable?” had me hollering! 😂😂😂
Usually military clothing (Logan was a soldier) is very fire resistant.
I'm not sure how it was in the 40s.. what exactly they used but I guess the idea was the same. Clothes that don't burn easily, dry quickly, protect from cold.
In theory, given Charles unique mutant ability as a telepath he can influence a person's perception of reality, which means in Logan's case he likely only appeared as his former self by triggering a region of Logan's brain that stored the memory of the Professor's physical appearance as well as his voice.
16:15 yeah, about that healing his claw exit points, I think this movie didn't take into account some things like that or they just chose to ignore it for the sake of the movie. Much was changed from the comics for this movie, such as characters backstories, their powers, ect.
Which was this comic ? Do you know it's name ?
Just finished your marvel list, working on the LOTR now.. Love this channel, just so comforting and your incredibly intuitive..
Thank you so much! It means so much that you enjoy my channel! ❤
The fight between Logan and Shingen is my favourite part coz it's straight from the comics. Shingen, a master swordsman, tries all lethal moves and blows he can to kill wolverine but Wolverine is just unkillable until Logan just kills him defensively, just like the comics.
Now, Days of Future Past. But I prefer Rogue Cut it shows everything.
Yes, you should seek out the Rogue Cut, Jax.
lol @ the 1 minute sidebar about Wolverine's "magic" pants 😂
By happy coincidence, Mister the Wolverine shops at the same haberdashery as Mister the Hulk. Mister Hulk has his trousers special ordered, made from "Unstable Molecules", invented by Reed Richards of the Fantastic Four. Mister Wolverine found out about this material whilst disagreeing with Mister Hulk one day. Mister Wolverine learned that his claws could slash up Mister Hulk perfectly fine, but could not cut the Comics-Code-Approved material of his trousers no matter how hard he tried. Later in the disagreement, after Mister Hulk unfortunately tore Mister Wolverine in two, Mister Wolverine inquired of Mister Hulk where he might clothe his lower half in such trousers (after he reunited himself with it, of course). Mister Hulk was kind enough to supply Mister Logan with the name, after which Mister Hulk leapt fearfully far away.
31:38 “didn’t you sleep with the daughter?” I’m dead 😂
At the time X-Men: The Last Stand was made, in the comics Charles Xavier has a brain-dead twin brother. It was implied in the end credits of that film that Charles' consciousness transferred to that twin, which is why Charles still looks like Patrick Stewart. (Didn't explain why he needed a wheelchair, though that could likely be explained as due to muscle atrophy.)
I say at the time Last Stand was made because in more recent years the comics retconned Charles to have a twin sister rather than brother. These films were made before that new character was introduced in the comics world.
I had forgotten how great this movie was and it was very cool rewatching it with your reaction. Needless to say that it makes me even more excited for the upcoming Deadpool and Wolverine movie. On a side note, I looked up the characters from “The Wolverine” and did not realize that the character played by the blonde woman was “Viper” who apparently took on Captain America in the comics and was sometimes referred to as “Madam Hydra”.
Originally At the end on the plane they had a box with the original yellow wolverine suit in, but edited it out now for some reason. That was the box she was handed before getting on the plane, when mariko and logan kissed.
2:26 His pants are made of the same material that the Hulk’s pants made of.
And yes, actual hunters collect the animal that they have killed, either as a trophy or as food, or both. But these guys are poachers, a completely different type of “hunter.”
And I had a cat that was as big as the cat in the love hotel.
I chuckled when they got off the train. They were about a six minute walk from where they started even though they were on a train heading out of the city at 200mph. That hotel hasn't been open in decades either, lol
That wasn't a hotel. The exterior shot is of the famous Nakagin capsule apartment tower which was torn down a couple years after this movie. A few people were still living there up until then.
@@stiimuliI'm aware. Lived in the area.
I LOVED the character of Yukio in this movie. She was a perfect complement to Hugh Jackman's Wolverine. I would have really liked to see her in other movies after she's become a bit more hardened being with Wolverine. A darker take on her and a deeper exploration of her abilities.
Taking the movie to Japan was a real treat for the fans though there were a lot of changes to the source material. Great Japanese cast as well.
I really enjoyed this movie. It was a true vibe all over. Plus I got to see more of og Jean Grey.
NGL, I was worried when Lamby was finally going to make an appearance. Yay!
50 years ago, Wolverine debuted in Marvel Comics from an appearance with The Incredible Hulk to a newly recruited member with the X--Men.
But in 1982, his first-ever solo series by Frank Miller (300, Sin City) and Chris Claremont (1970s X-Men) defined the character of Logan.
His story was set in Japan and Logan's life was likened to that of an Ronin (samurai with no master).
He has the heart to stand against opposition, but is still learning/finding a direction in life.
The film uses elements from the solo series and is set long after the events of X3:The Last Stand.
This is Hugh Jackman's 2nd film with director James Mangold following the romantic comedy, Kate & Leopold (2001).
Struggling with Jean's death, finding his place in the world and losing his healing temporarily is the most drama.
The action, romance, suspense, intrigue of being a Gajin (outsider) caught in someone else's battle really feels like the comics.
2 of the antagoniss;Viper is originally human and known as Madame Hydra in the Captain America comics.
Yashida in the Silver Samurai suit is based on the Silver Samurai and Ogun characters/known Wolverine villains.
A really good sequel, rightfully steps ahead of and more loved than X-Men Origins:Wolverine.
But both Logan & Professor X (solo/together) would soon face even greater obstacles.
The evolution was not over and I personally couldn't wait to see so much more in this universe.
2:12 "How did his pants stay perfectly fine?"
The same way the Incredible Hulk's pants stay perfectly fine.
2:12 🤣 Exactly!
19:12 I don't speak Japanese, but it's interesting that the subtitles translating it as "She was with the stranger," but the speaker makes a claw motion with his fingers and I distinctly hear the word "kaijū" which means "monster."
Once again, i know i say this a lot but your editing and commentary lmao, so good! I was in stitches at 'how to spell flammable', then you just abandoned it and used fire resistant hahahahahaha! That and all the other stuff you point out and little comments you make, you have an amazing sense of comedic timing, I know you're attention is on reacting, but I suggest you think of other funny videos to make - not kidding! Maybe, since you're watching these Marvel movies you could make clips of stuff like that pants thing or I dont know, you're the creative one!!
I really wanted to see a sequel to this movie, but I guess no one really wanted to see the way his relationship with Mariko plays out, lol. I'm afraid that Logan is just doomed when it comes to love, which in truth is part of the reason I love him. His life has been a constant struggle, a constant fight ever since he was a child, and he has endured things that no person should ever have to endure, and yet he's never lost things like his empathy, or his honor. Truly one of my favorite characters of all time. Ya ask me, the dude has a will stronger than his unbreakable adamantium laced bones.
I bought on blu-ray soon as it came out. Well I liot of Marvel and DC movies. I love this movie. It was just right kind of movie and action/story I wanted from the "Wolverine. I really enjoyed the fighting and the traditional "Japanese vibe that added it to it. Very cool. Awesome video "Jax 🎉👏
Absolutely Loved that post credit scene:) ps . Please watch the rouge cut of days of future past it’s my favourite version of that movie :)
When you were asking if he'd be hurting more than normal when Logan's healing was stunted for the first time. He's always felt pain but he's used to it and his wounds usually heal too fast for him to care. Remember the first xmen movie when Rogue and Logan were in his truck?
"Does it hurt? When they come out" (referring to his claws)
"Every time."
Yes! I do remember that. But since he wasn't healing from it anymore, I figured it would bother him more because the pain wouldn't go away.
Oh, for sure. I completely glossed over the prolonged pain 😢 he's lived for so long. I couldn't fathom being able to heal the way he does but then all of a sudden dealing with the pain NOT going away and lingering. Logan's already suffered so much mentally 😅 he just can't catch a break.
I love this movie for showcasing Wolverine's adventures in Japan as is in the comics. Dealing with Yakuza, fighting Lord Shingen (straight from the comics) fighting the Silver Samurai, meeting and falling in love with Mariko Yashida (Logan's 2nd most prominent love interest)
Also fun fact Logan at this point has no idea he has bone claws because as far as his memory goes back he always had metal claws and skeleton at least as of the point of this film
Logan said in the first X-Men movie that it hurts every time his claws come out, so when he's popping them out throughout the movie when he's not healing properly, it wouldn't exactly hurt more/less
Fun fact: Logan in the comics actually _was_ a samurai in the 1800's, and a trained ninja as well. In fact comic Wolverine actually knows almost as many martial arts as Batman (different comic companies yes but still an apt comparison), his skill level is higher than his old war buddy Captain America.
He's led such a full life! That's impressive.
When Charles transferred his consciousness to the body of the man that was in a coma, that was actually his twin brother... That's how he looks the same...
In the comics Viper (aka Madame Hydra) is Wolverine's ex wife.
The guy rolling on the car early in the movie saw the car at the last moment to throw him self over the hood to protect himself. People are trained to do that,you see it a lot in action movies. Soldier trained. The movie is awesome, you're assuming and trying to figure things out to fast. It's fine to do,but myself personally and I lot of people just enjoy the movie and just learn the movie and keep as we watch. 👍
I hate when people ask 54,929 questions during the movie like the answers are never revealed by the end. Just watch the movie and trust you'll be smart enough to piece the puzzles together when it’s finished.
Good job with the post credit scene, but there’s also a slight alternate ending on the plane.
His adamantium isn't removed his bones are still covered with adamantium & his skull. His healing factor fidnt completely transfer to the old man so he was able to heal back with & regenerate his body and restore his healing factor also with his adamantium claws cut he can grow back his original bone claws. His bones claws always grow back the fact they hadnt because they were coated with adamantium which was indestructible but the old man used hot adamantium sword & suit to cut them off, once those claws were gone he grew his bone claws back .. also his the Old man couldnt get all the healing factor he couldn't survive the would as mostly the healing factor he took was used to make him young.
I am surprised that you didn't put together who was supposed to get immortality and the fact that Yukio did not foresee the grandfather's death. And given that he also asked for the immortality just before "dying". I thought that was obvious when I watched. You made so many logic observations. But, I do love your reactions. Keep it going.
He was part of the Weapon-X program...as well as Wade Wilson/Deadpool and Deadpool actually is immortal, his healing factor is beyond Wolverine, he doesn't age, his mistress is Lady Death, he wants to be able to not live, but unable too. Due to the improvement of the Weapon-X program and experimentation, causing Deadpool's mutation. The thing about Deadpool is he had a similar character originally from DC comics called Deathstroke, the artist that created Deathstroke got fired from DC, was hired to Marvel comics and made Deadpool.
If i remember right, in case you're wondering for the future, magneto was able to manipulate the adamantium still in his body to give him back the metal claws.
Logan's pants are made of the same fabric the Incredible Hulk's pants are made out of. You ever wonder how when Bruce turns into the Hulk, ALL his clothes will tear off except his pants? Magic pants.
I don’t think he actually completely lost his healing, I think it was just severely weakened because realistically that first shotgun shot to the abdomen would’ve killed him for sure, and on top of that everyone he kills with the claws has some blood from his claws going back in his body which should kill him too
I LOVE your mcu reactions! There are a few more movies that pre-date the MCU like Punisher, Daredevil, and the Fantastic Four. I hope to see what you think of them.
Thank you so much! ❤
"So do I die on this plane?"
"That would be a terrible movie."
It can still be an interesting movie. Entirely on planes movies have been interesting. Quite a cinematic achievement for a superhero movie this would've been.
16:04 "If Logan is not healing [...], then how would he be okay with the [...] claws coming out of him? Wouldn't that hurt way more than normal?" No. Remember from the very first X-Men movie: he told Rogue the claws hurt every time they come out. They just don't do permanent damage to him (i.e. his knuckles heal once his claws are put away).
Yeah, that's why I assumed they would hurt more than normal. Since he normally heals from them and now he's not. So his knuckles and skin would remain damaged.
@@reactswithjax Ah! Now I see your point. He's used to the pain of injury, but lingering pain is new to him.
Snakes have hollow teeth, first they bite down on a prey, and while their teeth are imbedded in their prey they activate their venom. If their venom was in their mouth, snakes would poison themselves.
You are always so positive and constructive no matter how bad the movie is and now you finally criticize marvel.. .. for getting the amount of words wrong!!🤣😂🤣
You are a blessing to this world, Jax!
Next movie is one of the two best in the series. Also check out the deleted scene on the plane where Yumiko gives logan his comic book accurate suit
Fun fact: silver samurai is an enemy of Big Hero 6 in the comics
How about doing segments of these 1980s Film Gems where a lot of Petreons did not recommended; "Silverado" 1985, "Running Scared" 1986, "Secret of My Success" 1987, "Someone To Watch Over Me" 1987, "Fatal Attraction" 1987, "Empire of The Sun" 1987, "Shoot to Kill" 1988, "Midnight Run" 1988, "The Killer" 1989, "No Way Out" 1989, " "When Harry Met Sally" 1989, Enjoy.
The Line- "You're not the only one with gifts." that Charles says at the end, is also the first thing he says to Logan in the first x-men movie.
I didn't catch that!!!
Thanks for your reactions- always fun to watch! As a fan of the comics, I have mixed feelings about this one. I don't like what they did adapting Viper's character. In the comics she's powerless, Wolverine's X-wife (no apologies for that pun) but really just a badass. I do, however, really love that bullet train scene! Also Wolverine and Yukio have had a romantic relationship and he was due to marry Mariko at one point! I do think the comics often get it better than the films. In one version of the comics, set in a different universe, it implied Wolverine was responsible for Nick Fury's missing eye, from his Weapon X days- which I think is waaaaaaay cooler than the MCU's version!
Looking forward to your reactions to Days of Future Past and also Deadpool! I also applaud your attempts to try and reconcile the movie continuity- good luck- and this is from a guy who enjoys decades worth of comic book continuity!
Viper in the comics also goes by the name Madam Hydra a member of Hydra who has faced off with Captain America.
She's a pretty scary villain!
6:05 in some comics when some people took some of his blood and injected themselves they became immortal like him
Wow! That's pretty cool!
32:08 The word "Don't" is a mix of 2 words "Do Not"....Hence 9 Words
Mariko is the biggest crush of Wolverine on comic books I guess
Also the end credits scene is the original "somehow Charles has returned!"
I was waiting for this reaction Jax (aka Biel). Huge movie buff and film student. Keep going!!!
Thank you!! I'm so glad you enjoyed this. ❤❤
@@reactswithjax mentally prepare for Logan. Thank me later 😂
Days of Future Past, the Logan, then get your butt over to Deadpool one and 2….. super Necessary!!!!
And another compelling reaction Jax👍🏻
To your “Wouldnt Logan be in pain” remember in X-men 1 he said to Rogue it hurts “Everytime” the claws come out. So yes more pain than usual but not more than he has experienced before (see: staying awake during his adamantium surgery). He has been tortured repeatedly for his healing abilities.
The movies didn't explain it, but the body Xavier put his conscience into was his twin brother that was born without. This he looks the same.
