Cool, thanks! I was just thinking that if Strange could open portals to anywhere that it really opens a lot of doors plot wise. That would be almost as cool as the Space Stone.
You might appreciate this. A reading by Tolkien himself. http://fortwalden.dyndns-ip.com/Tolkien_Excerpt.mp3
The real villain here was Time and the screwed up nature of the world. Logan had been battling its many faces for a long time and the message was made clear that even he couldn't win. Sure we all have our good days, but there is no permanent happy ending even for the best of us. Look at how Prof X's life work ended up. It was almost like the longer Logan lived, the more familiar he became with this faceless foe. Time and Logan knew the endgame and Time didn't rub victory in our faces. It seemed fitting to me that Pierce and Dr. Rice weren't the main focus as they were merely puppets. Their deaths weren't even really climactic. I think Gollum echoed the point well in a riddle:
This thing all things devours;
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats mountain down.
