I know Fassbender is truly good in the character as well, but sadly his suits are no contest for McKellen's long black suit and cape plus his helmet makes him look impossing. Probably the best superhero character ever designed for X-Men by 20th Century Fox (aside from Deadpool and the final X-Men suits from Apocalypse)
Logan : shows his claws Magneto : Imagine it's from metal Logan : *nah im not stupid. Even when Logan still in his bones claw Erik still figure it out to put iron inside his body and throw him out
Sir Ian McKellen's Magneto lifted the things as if they were lightweight cotton. He made it look so easy. Michael Fassbender would have done the same thing too, but since he had so many distractions inside his mind that, he struggles to focus.
I mean in Dark Phoenix (which we don't really talk about.), Fassbender's Magneto barely tries anymore similar to Sir Ian's. (Except that one time she had to overpower Jean in the helicopter scene) But other than that scene, Fassbender's Magneto there barely made gestures when controlling metal.
Humans only validated Magneto's arguments to fear humans targeting mutants when they turned the cure into a weapon in "Last Stand." He is understandably portrayed as a villain for most of the original trilogy, but he was spot on about the cure being weaponized and immediately used against them.
@@lindildeev5721mas Magneto foi muito mal com sua própria raça. Ele mataria sua melhor amiga (Mística) pra seguir seus objetivos. Mataria a Vampira pra atingir seus objetivos. Mataria qualquer um.
@@lindildeev5721 That doesn't answer the question and yes he was rather evil in how he abused humans and mutants alike and tried to commit genocide at least twice in the movie series.
Too evil? He's more like an anti-hero, maybe a very dark hero, like Black Adam. The Nazis didn't help Xavier's case that humans are good people. Honestly, whilst Charles has a fair point about using peaceful methods to get humanity to use their common sense, Erik has a very equally strong case simultaneously (or at least VERY close to equal).
The majority of people prefer the younger Magneto but just because he looks good, I think Sir Ian McKellen was a excellent Magneto he knew all the moves, perfect coordination with his power, he truly makes you believe he is using the magnetism, Young Magneto fails me with his moves, some are very exaggerated, I like both but definitely this is the Magneto Im staying with, Bravo Sir!
I always assumed that but I think maybe in the comics the explanation is that he also moves himself relative to magetic fields, it's the reason the guards couldn't pull him back when he was latched onto the fence. So he can literally latch onto the earth's magnetic field and levitate himself. I think they go with that explanation in the prequel movies.
I hope Iam Mckellen lives on forever. Im a huge Lord of the Rings fan since i was 6 and i admit i only saw xmen because of him. He got me into reading Shakespeare. Funny how a complete stranger from films change your life.
Magneto is the very first character I ever saw Ian McKellen play and magneto will always be my favourite character to this day that Ian McKellen has ever played
Sir Ian McKellen made me love Magneto. As powerful as the Phoenix is, I think most of the showstoppers belong to Magneto, probably due in part to the seeing a man levitating gigantic objects while floating through the air, but probably also due to McKellen’s masterful performance.
I miss 2000s movies so much. Back in the days, these are the most fascinating scenes that people could ever imagine. X-men was way wonderful, even Marvel was nothing.
In comics, Magneto was able to keep his blood circulating even after having his heart ripped out thanks to his mastery with magnetic fields. The prision scape scene are still the best
Out of all the X-Men film, this is the most impressive scene out of them all It shows as we all know how powerful Magneto is.He acted it perfectly and it still holds up when he breaks out the plastic prison
Yeah that's what's strange. It's suspected being an omega level mutant renders the cure ineffective due to the larger amount of X-Cells in their system.
@cdel4391 facts and im Irish so you would think i have a bias but i dont Sir Ian IS Magneto and Micheal while an Irish treasure just played a great Magneto
It's interesting, having primarily grown up in the era of comics Magneto being an anti-hero or kind of morally grey anti-villain, which is also how Fassbender mostly portrayed him in the movies more recent in my memory, i forget how much of a true classic old comics full on villain Mckellen portrayed him as.
The scene where he tries to use his powers after the cure was a nod to the fact that the cure only blocked Mutants of levels 3 and below and levels 4 and up got them back after a while of recovery. that's the kind of thing that happens with trials after all, still some creases to iron out.
Everytime i see magneto vs wolverine i always end up with the questions When will the x-men stop sending the man with a magnetic skeleton to face the master of magnetism At some point just dont right
Ian McKellen made Magneto look like US Representative Ron Paul in a caped Dr. Evil cosplay. Singer & Hayter were thinking "Let's cast any random British old guy with Oscar-worthy acting chops!" Imagine a beardless version of Arnold Schwarzenegger's Zeus but wearing red armor, that's how a live-action Magneto should look. (Also, Michael Fassbender is too Irish for the role, and he looks more like Matt Murdock/Daredevil)
@@KenMasters. it's not just about the looks. Casual audiences in the late 90s and early 2000s weren't really ready for 100% comic-accurate costumes and it is always better to cast an actor that can act extremely well but doesn't look completely like its original instead of an actor that may look more like their comic book counterpart but doesn't act well
@@Dr.Leymen I agree with less comic book accuracy, my favorite of all-time is Heath Ledger as Joker. But if the looks and depictions are nerfed, illogical and downgraded, then my point above stands correct. If someone's gonna change fiction, it has to be a brilliant idea, I don’t see any from Fox's Marvel.
Magneto is a character we all people face in real life everyone can change and be a better and good person a life earned my respect at the end of X Men days of future past
O Ian foi uma escolha sensacional para este papel, é realmente impressionante como ele vestiu o personagem, uma atuação fantástica, sem sombra de dúvidas ele é o Magneto!
I think what I enjoy most about Magneto in these movies is that the metal moving sound effect is consistent through every single Xman movie from the very first one through Dark Phoenix.
Not really, when Magneto used the device in its first appearance his hands burn and become attatched to it, Mystique has to pry him off because his hands are stuck. Seems pretty impossible to escape if someone as masterful as Magneto becomes overwhlemed and literally held too it.
@@matthewschwartz6607 I don't recall a single scene where she drained powers and then didn't know how to use them. attacking Magento and/or machine with new powers is a reasonable choice in this situation
@oldcat1790 there is no indication that Magneto struggling to free himself is to protect the machine, and every indication that its because he's drained of energy, weakened, stuck too it and in pain.

Magneto in the first movie: I´m gonna make the world´s leaders into mutants so that they understand what we´re going through Magneto in the second movie: hippity hoppity there goes humanity
I hope once they reboot the X-men which they will, they stop down playing characters like storm, rogue, magneto, blob, and so on. Magneto from the comics would’ve done everything from the air including releasing mystique killing the homes. Most likely carried the metal container back to base.
The scene of him stopping the X-Jet is one of the most ridiculous scenes in the series. The plane was flying at hundreds of miles per hour taking evasive maneuvers to evade a missile and Magneto just happened to know it would be crashing in that field. Maybe Domino from Deadpool 2 was with him or something?
Everytime we watch lotr my son refers to him as magneto rather than Gandalf but as soon as we watch harry potter he thinks Dumbledore is Gandalf. Obviously Ian is just a marvelous actor lol
His powers are as strong as needed for whatever scene. He can stop bullets firing out of hundreds of guns, but he can't stop one shard of metal from piercing himself.
I love how Sir Ian McKellen uses that graceful Shakespearean element to make Magneto this cruel gentleman.
It's the perfect Magneto imho.
His mannerism, superior intellectual and persuassive discourse makes him a beliavable villain.
I know Fassbender is truly good in the character as well, but sadly his suits are no contest for McKellen's long black suit and cape plus his helmet makes him look impossing.

True dat
Best part of his performance
But not to Rogue they made her useless
why is he wholesome tho?
I like how they made Michael Fassbender's Magneto seemed stronger but Ian McKellen made his hand movements as if he is moving the metals too easy.
Bc it’s the difference between young n old
You’re more ruthless n wilder when young
N then he just has so much experience bc obviously… he’s older
😊😊
You can put that down to him becoming more powerful over time.
Because Ian McKellen is Master of Magnetism, while Michael Fassbender is only metal bender😏
Yet he almost destroys the world in Apocalypse
In every Magneto joke, Wolverine is the punchline :D
Logan : shows his claws
Magneto : Imagine it's from metal
Logan : *nah im not stupid.
Even when Logan still in his bones claw Erik still figure it out to put iron inside his body and throw him out
Is wanting in new Deadpool film for Magneto to rip Adamutim from his body like X-Men #25 back in the day.
@@tonyrandall4364Have you watched X-Men '97?
Sir Ian was the perfect casting for that role. He made him likeable, hate-able, & just a lot of fun to watch.
Christopher Lee was considered for the role of Magneto. Makes sense since he always plays the villian.
Ian McKellen is mezmerizing in every role he has ever played. An actor's actor.
Sir Ian McKellen's Magneto lifted the things as if they were lightweight cotton. He made it look so easy. Michael Fassbender would have done the same thing too, but since he had so many distractions inside his mind that, he struggles to focus.
Bruh Fassbinder was the master of his powers in Days of Future Past
@@I-speak-U-shut-it Fassbender's Magneto is at his peak of mutant power but lacks the experience and wisdom of Ian's Magneto, both are GOATED tho
McKellen's magneto has more focus due to years of controlling metal but Fassbender is more aggressive and is able to move metals faster
I mean in Dark Phoenix (which we don't really talk about.), Fassbender's Magneto barely tries anymore similar to Sir Ian's. (Except that one time she had to overpower Jean in the helicopter scene) But other than that scene, Fassbender's Magneto there barely made gestures when controlling metal.

I prefer the older Magneto. But I still love both. I understand the villain. He makes sense.
"Show, don't tell" in filmmaking: Viewer wonders how the heck Magneto can fly. 1:42 - Oh, he's got metal plates under his shoes. Gotcha.
Most well-made boots have a steel shank in their sole so he wouldn't really need customized boots.

Ou manipulação de eletromagnetismo
MCU would be like
Wolverine: You can fly?
Magneto: Metal boots.
Wolverine: So you got flying boots? Where can I get one of those?
He can fly because there is metal all over the world like copper nickel etcetera so he can levitate from that

Same. I keep thinking about what it'd feel like if he died! His acting and general personality leaves such an impression.
Ian's use of his hands comes with such ease and mastery as though he actually has the power to manipulate metal and magnetism.
Why would someone with that power have to pose with his hands?
@@fjccommish pose? I didn't say anything about posing.
