Logan killed the black family...


...the moment he stepped inside their house. Who else thought it was really dumb to have dinner and sleep at the black familys house when they knew an army was chasing them?

reply

If we're going to go anywhere near that family dying we should place the blame squarely on Charles, he was the one who insisted they go there so Logan could know what life should be like.

reply

Yeah because you should always trust the judgement of a 90+ year old with alzheimer's.

reply

Who can get into minds and plant ideas just like we'd been shown he'd done expertly with nervous horses mere moments earlier.

Sorry you didn't get your explosions and girls in tight Lycra fix this time around.

reply

Logan and Xavier are both racists.

reply

Everyone is a racist to some degree, deal with it.

You want to tell me the way your significant other looks didn't attract you to her/him? Because the way people look is pretty much a result of the person's race which means when you decide you like the one with dark skin or the one with lighter skin or the one with blond hair or whatever its all because your a racist deciding you like that one more than the others. So come on explain how you're not a racist yourself.

I'm not the one who caused slavery.

reply

Slavery has nothing to do with race you moron. Blacks have had blacks as slaves, white have had whites as slaves... Slavery is based on a hell of a lot of things beyond race. If you have some twisted belief that only blacks have ever been slaves then you've clearly got a piss poor education in world history. Go read some books before you start posting nonsense and maybe the world will stop laughing at you.

It was a risk for sure. But remember, our friends did not know that the bad guys had a Mutant tracker to assist them. They thought he had been killed. So still a risk, but by this time they had escaped... or rather, they had no reason to believe that they could be found that evening or that "easy"... plus Professor X had an another reason to stay there, I think. He wanted Logan to realize what they were really fighting for... family.

reply

They should have realized that they were being tracked somehow when they were found in Vegas. I feels like they should have switched the placement of the farm and the casino, then it would show how good these mercs are because even without a tracker they still find them.

reply

Good Point. Had they had two trackers, say one inferior to Caliban and from the beginning of the story. Then he or she could have been killed at the Casino giving our friends false hope.... I think this would have fixed this question fairly easy, no?

reply

It's very, very possible that Charles, who was a little off his meds and mind melding with horses, didn't exactly give Logan much choice in the matter.

reply

Do you mean by literally forcing Logan to agree to stay? That seems a bit dark for Charles... but if he was desperate to feel loved and cared for, in addition to the effects of old age, I suppose he could have.

reply

I couldn't believe the writers killed off the whole family, including the son. A bit too dark for me.

reply

He's a racist. I'm glad he's dead.

reply

Really hated that part. A nice hard working black family did in by the white man. Kinda cringe worthy. At least the fat black kid lived lol

reply

And if the family had been a hard working white family Denzel Washington and Spike Lee would have been bitching that the producer was racist.

reply

It was really just a plot device in order to kill Charles in a meaningful way, introduce clone!Logan and kill Caliban (stop them from tracking real!Logan and Laura... remember, they only found them in N. Dakota because Laura had left her picture in the house with the coordinates).

What I really didn't see coming was the dad surviving his initial assault then running his truck into clone!Logan. That was cool.

No.
