X-MEN 3 (2006) BREAKDOWN! Easter Eggs & Details You Missed | X-Men Rewatch

welcome back to new rock stars I'm Eric. Boss and this is a breakdown of X-Men. the Last Stand this 2006 film was Fox's. third X-Men movie and we are breaking. down all of these films in our X-Men. stick stick rewatch directed by Brett. Ratner this film is remembered for some. questionable choices and some trouble. behind the scenes but it led to Kelsey. Grammar Beast returning for the. post-credit scene of the Marvels a cameo. that proves that all of the fox X-Men. films are on the table for MCU. Crossovers and we must watch them all. even the less loved ones were people.

start saying [ __ ] a lot keep it up I'll. spray you in the face [ __ ] I'm the. Juggernaut [ __ ] I know but there's also. a lot to Love in This film so let's. break down Xmen the last stand for all. the Easter eggs details you missed and. what else besides Frasier Marvel Studios. might bring back for the mutant. Homecoming in Deadpool 3 and by the way. any speculation or potential spoilers. for that Deadpool 3 film will be down in. the danger room section at the end of. this video okay as always the opening. 20th Century Fox logo has the X. lingering just a bit longer on that fade.

to black but then the Marvel logo of all. the flipping comic book pages has. actually been updated to include moments. that are related to what happens in this. film we see genan gray as Phoenix saying. I am Phoenix from Uncanny X-Men number. 101 in 1976 that was the first. appearance of Phoenix years before Chris. claremont's dark Phoenix Saga would. begin in 1980 and in the opinions of. many Revitalize Marvel Comics as a brand. like there's a reason why in The. Stranger Things pilot will in the year. 1982 is reading an issue from the dark. Phoenix Saga Xmen 134 because that story. line was so important to really any kid.

reading Marvel Comics in the early ' 80s. and that included this movie. screenwriters Simon kinberg and Zack pin. kinberg loved the story line so much. that he tried to adapt it again with. 2019s dark Phoenix but it's really a. tough storyline nowadays because you can. say that Marvel has really refocused its. overpowered aega level Nexus mutant. female roll into the Scarlet Witch and. it's kind of hard to also do that story. and be like aren't these women crazy but. hey it could still be fun to see these. two fight in secret Wars I think we need. to see it happen not in like a RAR way.

but like they're they're very powerful. very cool characters and I just want to. see them at least like talk or maybe. like Team Up and Kill a bunch of guys. whatever I I feel bad for telling you. what to do okay we also see this comic. issue of Jubilation Lee saying Adam anti. man attitude he's one of a kind we'd. like him back this is actually from. Chris Claremont and Jim Lee's X-Men. number seven from 1992 a shot of Magneto. with the Box above him saying the. government SE challenge didn't see it. that way this is from Claremont and. Lee's X-Men number one in 1991 we see. several other images from this early 90s.

run which is pretty great that's when. Wolverine's colors were like this auburn. red and yellow we also see this image of. Magneto ripping up the bridges of New. York obviously foreshadowing Magneto. destroying the Golden Gate Bridge in. this movie we see a few pages from the. very first Uncanny X-Men number one all. the way back from 1963 by Stanley and. Jack Kirby which introduced the X-Men. the lineup included Professor X Cyclops. Iceman who kind of looks like a cloud. angel and the Beast and this is before. the Beast was blue but he was barefoot. in this movie beast and Angel are. introduced to X-Men films we see an.

image of Colossus fighting Juggernaut. that's from Uncanny X-Men number 102 in. 1976 we also see Juggernaut from X-Men. number 46 that's this cover and then we. see this image of Wolverine telling. Cyclops every now and then Summers and. that line actually completes with I. remember why you're still in charge this. is from Jos Sweden's astonishing X-Men. number eight from 2005 which would have. made this one of the more recently. published inclusions for this 2006 movie. whatever you think about Jos Sweden his. X-Men run in the first half of that. decade was really good and I like that. they include this moment when Cyclops.

pulled a get off my lawn and cleared a. whole field with his optic blast this. movie unfortunately kills off the. Cyclops character in a pretty shitty way. but weeden's astonishing X-Men was known. for the mutant cure storyline that fox. wanted to bring into this film to make. it a political conflict with Magneto but. doing so made kimberg and pin's dark. Phoenix elements kind of in congruous so. this film opens 20 years ago which would. make it either 1986 or based on the. October 2005 issue of the magazine Hank. McCoy's reading later maybe 1985 but but. either way this movie dages Patrick.

Stewart and Ian McKellen in a very. high-profile stunt technology had been. used that way more discreetly in movies. like Terminator 3 but these visual. effects from Lola very talented group of. artists just kind of come out front and. center in the opening frames of this. movie and initially the effect is pretty. good it holds up it's because this shot. begins on really the surprise of Charles. Xavier's feet hitting the ground because. back in this time he was still able to. walk the shot keeps the men at a. distance we can't really see their. mouths as closely from this angle and. the shot is in motion so we're just not.

really scrutinizing the movement of. their lips which is the way we get. sucked in the uncanny valley right away. like look at this clip I still don't. know why I'm here couldn't you just make. them say yes yes I could but it's not my. way yeah it's pretty good right because. here's the thing about VFX that social. media generally misses the point of. whenever these things are taken out of. context or paused or like zoomed in on. everything looks artificial you don't. look like a genius or posting something. on Twitter and being like doesn't this. look terrible yeah because you're. posting it on Twitter dumbass you look. terrible on Twitter the trick of.

avoiding falling into the uncanny valley. is context and character and in this. case the context and the characters are. it's just nice to see these two old foes. back together as friends in a two shot. the daging effect supports that illusion. daging and facial deep fakes should. always be done in tandem with the. actor's physical performance and deliver. a magic trick that our hearts long to. see if it ever gets just the slightest. whiff of being exploitative our. Collective moral conscience is going to. shove us violently into that uncanny. valley and force us to hate it no matter.

how good it looks and notice how it's. not until we are inside with a. stationary camera on a closeup with. McKellen and Stewart that we begin to. see the artificiality like here we're. mutants Jean we are like you but overall. it works I think because we are seeing. these two guys now from the point of. view of young Jean Gray who doesn't. trust these strangers they look creepy. and weird to her because we just heard. Charles's voice inside this girl's Mind. telepathically by the way seeing Charles. walking in this opening scene is part of. a different backstory that we don't. really get to see for these characters.

X-Men first Class will establish a new. way that Charles Xavier gets paralyzed. from the waist down we also see a. different walking Charles Xavier in the. final scene of X-Men origins of. Wolverine so yeah just don't think about. it but I do like the detail that Eric is. wearing a red over coat that looks. similar to the red coat that Jean gry. will wear when she succumbs to the. Phoenix now already in the first like 30. seconds of the movie there are a lot of. insane visual effects going on and these. along with a Golden Gate Bridge sequence. made X-Men the Last Stand the most. expensive movie of all time at the time. of its release but that said.

surprisingly this X-Men movie made more. money than either of its two. predecessors it was the most profitable. X-Men movie up until X-Men Days of. Future Past yeah it made more than Xmen. Orin Wolverine it made more than first. class now Jean Gray's Father John is. played by Adrienne hoe who voiced night. crawler for the '90s animated series The. Brochure is great but what about Jean. what about her illness if you are indeed. my brother then I will pray to God that. you find the wisdom to work work through. your hatreds while Charles has powers of.

telepathy Eric lyer can telekinetically. move metal Jean Gray proves to have both. of these Powers lifting the cars outside. the neighbor whose lawnmower floats is a. cameo by Chris Claremont and stanlee. cameos as the neighbor with the hose. Charles asks Jean if she can control his. power or let it control her this movie. Alters the origin story of the Phoenix. as a separate entity establishing it as. kind of a separate mental entity or a. Persona or an alar that Jee creates as a. response to Charles's mental blocks but. of course in the comics the Phoenix. force is a cosmic entity that seeks out.

and inhabits Jean's body from a young. age the origin of the Phoenix force is. one of the details of the 2019 dark. Phoenix film will change but the way. it's defined in this movie I just think. is kind of a bummer because now Jean's. power is associated with you know like. schizophrenia and back in the odds and. prior to that movies love to just throw. schizophrenia in there without really. understanding anything about the. condition this isn't a knock against. famy Jansen who does a great job in this. movie it's more of just like the script. decision to do this and they didn't need. to do this because X2 literally open. happens with a.

fenixytb. train track in that drawer ych and the. shame of this father's voice on oh. God how do you this just reminds us that. these X-Men movies were a metaphor for. the LGBT experience and the pressure for. youth to hide themselves from the world. Brian singer's relationship with. franchise is obviously pretty.

complicated given his sexual assault. allegations and his Frau relationship. with the cast and crew but after X2. singer and his writers left the. franchise to go make Superman Returns. Fox Studios originally hired Matthew vau. to replace Brian Singer but vau also. left the production at first it was. reported that he left to avoid uprooting. his family from the UK to Vancouver but. then just a few months ago October 2023. at New York Comic Con V said that he. actually quit X3 after seeing that a fox. executive had an alternate script draft. that opened with a prologue of of. African kids dying of thirst and a rora.

Monro creating a thunderstorm to save. them which he thought was a really cool. idea but he said the executive actually. just planned to use this fake script to. get Hal Barry to sign on and then they. would have thrown this fake draft in the. bin and V said that he walked after that. which sounds like a pretty noble thing. until you realize what this guy did to. Darwin In First. [Music]. Class yes Matthew Bon would later return. to reboot the franchise and X-Men first. Class in 2011 before X3 after a scramble.

to find a replacement director Fox hired. Brett Ratner best known for directing. the rush hour films later on in Fall. 2017 Ratner would face sexual assault. allegations and Elliot Paige said that. Ratner outed the then 18-year-old Paige. as gay at an X3 meet and greet event. this was before Paige came out as a. trans man and a pacin was also at this. event and said that she witnessed it so. look folks we are allowed to rewatch. these movies like what we like in this. franchise but we just can't Sweep All. That history under the rug and pretend. it didn't happen so the past two X-Men.

installments had opening titles that. showed nerve cells and brain sinking. with cerebro this one shows the blood. cells and antibodies of a mutant named. Jimmy AKA leech whose blood is harvested. by worthington's Pharma company to. produce a mutant cure this is actually. part of an original opening scene in. Worthington Labs where Dr raal would. have put Jimmy through an MRI type. machine but with the gene gray opening. instead we're already kind of feeling. the tug of war in this movie between the. dark Phoenix storyline in the Cure story. line but we see these DNA strands. through the lenses of a microscope which. is then locked behind the XO but instead. of cerebro we're now in a different part.

of the expansion basement the danger. room the longtime X-Men training room. which operates with a kind of. holographic augmented reality in a. simulation against the Sentinels with. their giant robot heads similar to the. design of the '90s Animated Series but. redesign for days of future past but. this not too distant future in the. danger room is an apocalyptic war zone. that looks a lot like what the X-Men. will face in Days of Future pasts. prologue to Jackman Wolverine and Halle. Berry storm return leading this Mission. with Elliot page Kitty Pride Sean. Ashmore Bobby Drake and a pacin rogue. and Daniel Cudmore Colossus Colossus and.

Rogue team up as Rogue absorbs his metal. up powers to deflect the debris. meanwhile Kitty hugs Bobby to let debris. pass through them which makes Rogue. jealous Wolverine lights a cigar on a. nearby flame reminding me of Mary and. Ravenwood stopping to sip some loose. booze and Raiders of the Lost AR Logan. says that this was his last cigar and. since we don't see real cigar in the. simulation floor later I assume this is. like a virtual cigar and Logan is. treating this exercise kind of like a. video game where he collects inventory. like cigars storm even calls us out this. isn't a game Logan like whoever designed. the danger room program must have.

allowed Logan to smoke cigars inside. that simulation and I love that I assume. Scott Summers did this and he just did. this because deep down he really loves. Logan Logan tells Colossus to toss him a. move that he will do in the final battle. later this is the fastball special a. classic move that Wolverine and Colossus. have pulled off many times in the comics. first appearing in X-Men 100 by Chris. Claremont James Marston returns to Scott. Summers he's letting some of his Scruff. grow out as he is still mourning Jean. since James Marsen would have to leave. production early to go film Superman. Returns producer of this film decided to.

kill off the character in the opening. act instead of you know any other. storyline that he could have shot in the. first few weeks of production films. don't have to be shot chronologically or. you could have like recast a character. why did you kill off the character. there's just a lot of confusing choices. in this movie like the dialogue in X3. just kind of dumbs down the characters. in ways that they weren't dumb in the. other films like this scene with Rogue. and Bobby have I ever put any pressure. on you you're a guy Bobby your mind's on. the on one thing and that's where the. scene ends like Bobby never contests. that it's kind of like yep got me there. it's 2006 guys are supposed to only have.

one of the five love languages like in. X2 Bobby and Rogue figured out a system. you know quick denty nice kiss his. gloved peton so why is this an issue now. and by the end of this movie Rogue. dewers herself just so she can hold his. hand what okay on to the Department of. mutant Affairs presumably the political. result of Charles meeting with President. McKenna and X2 the quest of the federal. agency includes a DNA double helix. design on the shield Kelsey Grammar. plays secretary Hank McCoy hanging. upside down and reading this October. 2005 edition of Scientific American.

which is an actual publication that's. been in print since 1845 there's some. fun article titles in the cover like. Galactic waves the cosmic necessity of. beautiful spirals odd DNA reveals. secrets of human evolution migration and. survival tracking mutations the. Forgotten era of the brain control chips. building a better bomb detector ancient. crystals from Earth's first continents. now you might think these might be like. references to Galactus or the Phoenix. Force but no no no this is an actual. Scientific American cover from October. 2005 now Kelsey Grammar is covered in. thick makeup and Prosthetics for this.

movie when he returns to play the. character in the MCU in the Marvel's. post credit scene they do a CGI. rendering of the character that looks. like it's based on the bone structure of. what they use for Hulk and Thanos that. isn't making the character more comic. accurate like a smaller head in. proportion to the rest of his body but I. do appreciate the Practical effect here. Hank McCoy meets with the new US. president of this film played by ysf. summer Bill Duke plays dhf secretary. tras a natu bolevard tras creator of the. Sentinel program but tras in this movie. is never given a first name and we meet. a different bolevard tras played by by. Peter Dinklage and Days of Future Past.

we learned that Mystique had been. impersonating TR so I guess she's moved. on from Senator Kelly and now she's. being interrogated by an FBI agent. played by Anthony heeld who played Dr. Chilton in the Silence of the Lambs and. returned in 2003's prequel red dragon. which Brett Ratner directed Mystique. says she doesn't answer to her slave. name of Raven darkholm and she. transforms into Magneto wearing his 001. prisoner clothes from X2 and then into. heal's character and I know I point this. out in every movie I love what other. actors like do a Mystique impression and. here Anthony heeld in the split screen. shot himself does the first part of the.

stunt where he swipes the chair behind. his back at least before they cut to a. different angle and a stunt person is. swapped in when she holds him from. behind Mystique snars as a kind of. pejorative hom sapan so the president. passes McCoy a file on Jimmy AKA leech. leech in the comics was a member of the. morlocks with the power to drain or. suppress superpowered beings within 50. ft of him on his paperwork you can see. xdna strand KLH conjugate KLH or keynote. Limpet hemocyanin is used as a carrier. protein in the production of antibodies. Charles lectures about mutant ethics.

Kitty pride is sitting in this classroom. and to the left is Shauna Kane returning. as Teresa Cassidy siren Connor widows. returns as Jones that's a kid who. blinked to change channels in X2 there's. Kia Wong back as Jubilation Lee she. doesn't get any lines in this movie. though Luke Paul returns is flea that is. the kid that Colossus gave that doodle. of Bobby and Rogue back in X2 Kitty. Pride quotes Albert Einstein the full. quote is actually I do not believe an. immortality of the individual and I. consider ethics to be an exclusively. human concern with no superhuman. Authority behind it it was in response. to a letter from a Baptist pastor in.

1953 about whether or not Einstein felt. he had achieved everlasting life with. his creator but it's interesting here. that the term superhuman is used in a. different context Einstein was using the. word to talk about God taken out of. context historically now it's saying. that superhumans might be Gods Not Bound. by the same ethical principles as the. rest of humanity Charles puts it back in. the context that Einstein wasn't a. mutant at least they don't think which. begs the question that lots of. characters throughout history might have. actually been mutants and we just didn't. know Charles plays a recording from his. colleague Dr Moira MCT tager a. geneticist and mutant Ally from the. comics played by Olivia Williams in this.

movie recast is Rose Burn in an expanded. role in X-Men first Class the comos. patient that Charles poses the. hypothetical of transferring a. Consciousness into sets up the twist in. the post credit scene storm and Charles. walked through the school passing this. kid floating paper airplanes this is. supposedly Julian Keller Helen and. behind them are some blonde triplets. these are the Stepford cucko clones of. Emma Frost from the comics secretary. McCoy joins them and briefs him about. the announced mutant cure he and. Wolverine trade barbs as two furry. fellas he tells Logan I've been fighting. for mutant right since before you had. claw boy not realizing that Logan AKA.

James howlet is a lot older than Hank. McCoy Wolverine was born like in the. 1840s we'll see that in Xmen Origins we. cut to Worthington Labs on Alcatraz in. San Francisco Bay X3 takes us to the. West Coast for an island known as a. prison historically in low Kei season 2. they'll actually visit Alcatraz and show. how three of the escapees were actually. variants at the TVA clocked now the. original idea for Alcatraz in this movie. was for a lot of mutants to be. imprisoned here they were going to use. the prison cells of Alcatraz to keep. mutants there and the reason Reon. Magneto was going to move the Golden.

Gate Bridge to this island originally. was to liberate all these mutants and. let them flee into the city that set. piece of the Golden Gate Bridge was. insanely complicated it actually took up. a sixth of the film's budget the effects. crew had to Begin work on it while the. script was still coming together so then. when the script was changed so that. Alcatraz was just going to be used as. like a location where Worthington labs. are and the only mutant in prison there. is leech it just kind of makes it so. that in the final version of the film. Magneto moves the bridge like just to. move the Brotherhood from Marin County. to the island he could have just as. easily summoned a fleet of to carry them. across it would have taken far less.

energy for Magneto and he would have. been far more useful in that battle on. the island so yeah the bridge scene. looks awesome but it's just kind of a. visual spectacle with no logical purpose. thank you to better help for sponsoring. this video A new year is a great excuse. for finally tackling the stuff that you. put off last year and if one of the. things you've been putting off until. 2024 is taking proper care of your. mental health better help can help you. get started and hey no judgment for. waiting starting therapy can be hard and. the right therapist for you might not be. in your area and some people struggle. with the face- Toof face interaction of. therapy with better help you can have. your therapy sessions as a phone call as.

Rises to say no one ever talks about.

extermination they just do it hinting at. his past at alitz we meet a mutant group. called The omegas in this film da. Ramirez plays Kalisto who has super. speed and the ability to detect a mutant. from afar this is actually a power from. the mutant caliban Ming melanon plays. psylock who will later be played by. Olivia mun and X-Men apocalypse omah. herota plays arklite a mutant who can. cast shock waves and Ken Leong who will. later play The Necromancer mil strm on. Lost plays kid omega as He's listed in. the script but based on his power set he. is absolutely the mutant quill and I.

believe in other interviews they're like. yeah he's he's quill I don't know why we. called him kid Omega we see that kisto. has an Omega tattoo on her chest and. actually the term Omega comes from Omega. Level mutant in the comics that's the. most powerful class of mutants that. includes Jean Gray and W maximoff and. Franklin Richards actually later kalista. refers to some mutants that's class. three and later Charles says that Jee is. a class five and all this seems to be an. extension of this hierarchy structure. now remember between X2 and 2003 and. this movie in 2006 the success of the. first two X-Men and the first two. Spider-Man films led to things like.

Daredevil and the Fantastic Four movies. and Marvel films and the odds just kind. of fell into a weird game of one. upmanship like how do we fit more. superheroes and more super villains and. more superpowers in these movies and it. really wasn't until 2008 with Iron Man. that Hollywood realized hey let's just. focus on one hero at a time and let's be. careful about how we build these. Ensemble team ups in specific ways to. combine power sets in unique. combinations that like make sense. visually with X-Men the Last Stand we. just kind of like throw a lot of. different powers against each other and. it's just kind of a mess but I still. like to watch X-Men the Last Stand. because it shows Kevin feige learning.

these lessons the hard way yeah his name. is on these movies he was making a lot. of these decisions too Dr R introduced. secretary McCoy to Jimmy AKA leech who. is playing an Xbox game Xbox X-Men yeah. it is one of the first major Hollywood. movies to feature an Xbox it was a. relatively new gaming system in these. years actually Tik Tok Creator the. gaming Pastor was actually able to. figure out the exact game that Jimmy is. playing here and it is Pitfall the lost. expedition McCoy's hand reverts to flesh. colored around Jimmy X-Men first Class. establishes at Hank McCoy's appearance. as a result of him trying to cure his.

own mutation in the past but instead he. accidentally introduced a secondary. mutation that caused him to become more. animalistic in appearance Scott sumers. follows Jean voice back to alkali Lake. where there is a brief shot of a. short-haired fam Jensen screaming. underwater this is traumatic so Scott. blasts the lake with his optic blast a. Whirlpool forms and the Phoenix Rises we. see a transformed Jee with longer hair. Charles later explains that Jee surviv. by being wrapped in a cocoon of. telekinetic activity but I guess that. cocoon did not stop her hair from. growing out Phoenix and Scott kiss and. we cut away before we see what happens. to scottt only his sunglasses are left.

behind for Logan to find later he. doesn't even get an onscreen death. Charles tells Logan that Jean's Phoenix. identity manifested within her when he. put his psionic blocks in her mind and. control her again I just think this is a. missed opportunity making Jean's monster. coming from within her instead of where. it should be coming from the cosmos from. the unknown I look back at this as part. of a narrative trend of like trying to. ground these stories and what was seen. as a more understandable psychological. framework as opposed to just fullon. embracing Cosmic horror there was. actually a really great 2002 episod. episode of Jos Sweden's Buffy the. Vampire Slayer called normal again which.

all the events of the series are. suggested to have been just a. psychological delusion within Buffy's. mind that episode's so great because you. know we just go back to the normal. reality of the show where Supernatural. events occur but we always wonder what. if phase one of the MCU would carry on. the tradition of trying to ground. everything in some kind of reality but. when The Buffy Creator Jos Sweden took. over the franchise of 2012's Avengers. notice what happened the MCU steered. into a cosmic Direction and definitely. found its voice and everything beyond. that was characters reacting to the fact. that wormholes to space exists that. Thanos say out there that Infinity. Stones exist comic book movies should.

not be afraid of cosmic horror Ben. Foster plays an older Warren Worthington. the third in this movie he refuses to go. through the drug treatment he leaps out. the window this is a stunt that Ben. Foster reportedly did himself and he. flies over the city of San Francisco. toward KO Tower which fun fact is. designed to look like the nozzle of a. fire hose to honor our City's Brave. firefighters and how this city nearly. burnt to a crisp in the early 20th. century I live in San Francisco and. there is no like big high-rise with this. particular view of the city but they did. shoot this movie in Vancouver and they. likely composited in the background of.

the city of San Francisco Magneto wrecks. the Convoy to free mystique and they. free the other imprisoners which. includes James madrock AKA Multiple Man. played by Eric danne from Grace anatomy. and later Euphoria next Juggernaut. played by Vinnie Jones actually came. into this role after working with. Matthew vau and locks stock in Two. Smoking Barrels and snatch in the comics. Juggernaut is not a mutant folks he is. Charles Xavier's stepbrother who winds. up finding the Crimson gem in the temple. of citak giving him superhuman strength. he wears his iconic Dome helmet to. protect him from mental attacks and. while he's not a mutant he off aligns. with and fights for the Brotherhood of. mutants but none of that backstory is.

true in this film he's just a mutant. Matthew Von actually told superhero hype. in 2005 that he was hoping to put his. friend vny Jones in the movie because. quote what's interesting about. Juggernaut is that he's the brother. Professor X that's why I thought it. would be interesting to have an English. Thug opposite Patrick Stewart instead. Brett rner just uses the character as a. battering ram Mystique steps in front of. a dart to save Magneto and immediately. loses her powers Magneto abandons her. and the character just kind of. disappears from the movie we just see. her one time later where it reveals that. like she shared information with the. government it's clear that with James. Mars and Rebeca raain a lot of these. actors were just kind of like done with.

the franchise Logan and Jean find. themselves in Reverse positions from. where they met in the first film there. are three nodes on her chest wires. across her neck I don't know maybe you. could see this as foreshadowing for the. way Logan will have to kill her with. three claws to the Torso later they make. out and Logan's pretty freaked out he. asks what happened to Scott and the lab. goes crazy and Jean says K me yeah it's. impossible for a character to say kill. me and for it not to be a reference to. alien or. aliens kill me. [Music]. please kill me Logan tells her that.

Charles can fix it and the Phoenix. returns I don't want to fix. it Jean escapes Logan storman Charles. deduce that she must have killed Scott. and no one feels anything they just kind. of move on and they return to Jean's. neighborhood and there is this. ridiculous shot wait for me here what I. need to see Jean. alone you were right. Charles this one is special did they not. see Magneto standing there in the middle. of the street with Juggernaut as they. approach the house notice how Magneto is.

back in his helmet we should note that. Magneto's helmet in the comics was not. historically known to block out psionic. waves that was just kind of an invention. for the first X-Men film and they. adopted it and other media thereafter. and in fact at times in the comics the. helmet was known to give Magneto. telepathy Charles and Eric confront Jean. who unleashes her telekinesis on the. house to try to repel Charles Logan and. storm charge in Juggernaut despite being. told to keep them out just kind of. throws Wolverine directly into the. living room storm fights Kalisto who. throws her from the left and then Zips. around to catch her on the right very. cool a deleted scene would have shown. storm conducting lightning through.

Wolverine to electrocute Juggernaut. until he passed out you can tell the VFX. artist worked really hard to manifest. Phoenix's Powers with some trippy. Illusions like having the water pour. from the sink and flatten on the ceiling. it's just because all we know of the. Phoenix in this movie is that she's some. evil alternate identity inside of Jean's. mind we don't really know why this. telekinesis matters it's just kind of. like random sorcery the psychic battle. between Charles and Phoenix lifts. Charles out of the chair everything. slows down as Logan Witnesses Charles's. final moments don't let it control.

you. char Charles is completely obliterated. and it's the first of three times we. will see Charles Xavier. [Music]. die storm eulogizes Charles who gets a. massive headstone and an eternal flame. we should note at this point there is. still not a headstone or a service for. Scott Summers and I honestly think. rewatch in this movie it's because when. they shot these seeds they didn't yet.

know how much of the movie Scott Summers. was going to be in like they needed all. those actors to be there for the funeral. scene and I just think that it's. possible that they didn't know at that. point when they were making this movie. that they were going to kill off Cyclops. at that point Magneto brings Jee back to. his Brotherhood campsite a lot of REI. Vibes at this point in the movie folks. Jean dismantles a serum gun and aims the. darts at Eric calling back when Magneto. redirected The Guns of the cops outside. the train station in the first movie a. deleted scene would have shown Jean. demonstrating her power by turning a cup. into a glowing ball of energy sending. shock waves through the camp that's why.

in the scene after this with the omegas. and Pyro complaining about Jean Gray you. can see other Brotherhood mutants in the. back just trying to put their REI gear. back up now it's not really clear where. this campsite is I assume Marin County. since they all have to go to the bridge. on foot but there are definitely. mountains that I'm pretty sure are just. like Canada outside of Vancouver scenes. in this part of the movie are crazy. folks we jump around from these Woods. we're in Westchester New York then we're. in the St Francisco Bay area there's a. clinic that Bobby and Pyro are outside. of where it says Washington is it. Washington State or Washington D and. then Logan from Westchester responds to. psychic Visions from Jee and just kind.

of like knows where in all of North. America to go find her in the middle of. this we see a section where military. soldiers are transferring their weapons. from metal ones to plastic ones with. serum darts and there's actually a vocal. Cameo by R Lee Army from Full Metal. Jacket who's barking at all of them. Wolverine fights with bone dagger. slinging mutant Spike who's played by. Lance Gibson this is based on the. character Spike introduced in exforce in. 2001 and along with fat were members of. the ecstatics comic team this fight. scene that was actually added to make it. a more even fight because otherwise the. sequence would have just been Wolverine.

arriving in the woods at the Brotherhood. camp and suddenly massacring mutant he. came across so notice instead they. intercut Wolverine killing these other. mutants who don't even seem to be. attacking him with these new shots of. the bone daggers flying at him like. killing all these other random people. was in self-defense because he was that. bad at Spike Charles finds Wolverine and. flings him across the woods meanwhile. the president and tras send a task force. to the Brotherhood camp but they use. multiple man as a decoy back at the. Mansion the X-Men suit up and their. suits are all black leather Hank McCoy. after designing has now gone back to. like his pants and a shirtless vest nice.

while Wolverine storm Ice band Shadow. Cat and Colossus all have alternate. color trim on their respective suits. storm suit as a silver Cape now I got to. say The Last Stand is in my opinion in. the lower tier of Xmen movies at least. when it comes to the suit up and charg. in the final battle like really we don't. even get Rogue even Bobby Drake is like. do we really want this to be the final. fight of the movie I'm happy to sit out. but hey there was a deleted scene that. would have shown Beast reciting. Shakespeare's Henry VI F Act 4 wait be. happy few we Band of Brothers for He Who.

sheds his blood with me this day shall. be my brother be he near so vile this. day shall gentle his condition and men. in England now are bed will count their. manhoods cheap they were not here with. us to fight on Chris's day so here's the. big moment Magneto attacks the Golden. Gate Bridge and again he really just. does this so that Juggernaut doesn't. have to swim or take a fery to Alcatraz. in the car we see these kids playing hey. again it's Pitfall the last Expedition.

yes leech's favorite game makes the. second cameo in this movie except notice. they are playing on a PlayStation and I. don't know why they both have. controllers this a single player game. and they have a PlayStation in their car. in 2006 wow now this attack on the. Golden Gate Bridge as I mentioned before. was a massive set piece it involved. millions of dollars with the scale model. that they used for the effects planning. and then a larger 112th scale model that. they can move around to make the Flying. Bridge effects but having this in the. movie was deemed super important because. after 9 11 Hollywood was still afraid to. stage implosions and explosions in New.

York City or in Washington DC executive. producer Lauren Scher Donner's husband. Richard Donner stage a scene in the 1978. Superman film that was on the Golden. Gate Bridge there's actually a moment. during the run of the new X-Men comics. in 2003 where Magneto takes over New. York City by ripping up all the bridges. and metal substructure he was high on. the mutant drug kick at the time Kevin. feige as brsh to this movie even said. that they used that moment from the. comics as inspiration for how to show. Magneto's incredible power though he. incorrectly cited the ultimate Xmen. Magneto moves the bridge so that it. connects out has two what looks like the. Fort Mason part of San Francisco while.

the bridge would not be able to stay. suspended like that over the water. without its support beams going down. into the mud under the bay I will admit. that the actual length of the bridge. would probably cover the distance. between Alcatraz and the shoreline. Magneto stops the Juggernaut from. charging in initially by saying in chess. the pawns go first yes because the way. Charles and Eric frame this whole. conflict is a chess match but. unfortunately on the other side of the. table Charles isn't there for Eric to. play against so you know his heart. really isn't in this battle we see one. of these mutants teleporting forward. this could be vanisher who will make an.

appearance on the xforce in Deadpool 2. played by a much more recognizable actor. now the human soldiers are firing these. serum darts and they have so many of. them they include these cluster grenades. that just spray out like hundreds of. them one of the early casualties on the. Brotherhood side is glob Herman a mutant. whose powers are literally just. transparent wax skin we see anol the. lizard man changing and falling from his. perch arklite finally steps in by. sending in shock waves the Blackbird. arrives and Beast says this oh my St and. G yes this is one of BEAST's most. verbose catchphrases Beast first says.

this in 1975's Avengers number 137. supposedly it was Kevin figy who really. pushed for him to get this line in the. film Magneto sends it a second wave the. mutant Ash burdens Some Humans the X-Men. arrive and face off against the. Brotherhood and Magneto says traitors to. their own course and so far this charge. is the closest thing we've gotten to. X-Men vers Brotherhood charge in the. '90s animated show intro among these. attacks a deleted scene would have shown. storm summoning a wave from the bay and. then electrocuting in the water other. deleted shots have shown ican freezing. and smashing fat and Beast breaking a.

mutant's neck backwards what we do see. though is Kitty bride running through a. person and grabbing him from behind to. slam him down and the comic she has. ripped out a heart before so I'm glad. she didn't do that here or you know it. would have been pretty cool if she did. Juggernaut charges in the lab to kill. Jimmy yeah we definitely heard the sound. of bowling pins there Kitty races after. him Wolverine slashes this mutant who. can regenerate his limbs this guy's name. is apparently starfish I don't think. there's a mutant named starfish in. Marvel Comics but I guess they just. created another regenerative mutant just. for this bit come.

on grow those back I actually would love. for Logan to call this back while. fighting Deadpool in Deadpool 3 Kitty. pulls Juggernaut through the floor and. traps him there. briefly don't you know who I. am I'm the Juggernaut. [ __ ] H you got him I love it quill AKA. kid Omega kills Dr R with the world's.

worst hug otherwise I got to say pretty. useless power set and he's considered. one of the omegas I don't know I would. take fat Juggernaut chases Kitty through. the facility she reaches Jimmy but leech. dampens her powers so that she has to. trick Juggernaut into knock himself out. a removed version of the scene would. have had him referencing The Shining by. saying here's Juggy yes jugy storm kills. Kalisto electrifying her against a metal. fence this crazy detail so you can see. her lip rings sizzling and cool down. Magneto and Pyro escalate the battle by.

launching cars that pyro blows up it's. essentially the same setup from the. danger room defensive practice session. for the beginning of the movie Wolverine. remembers they have to work as a team. and he has Colossus throw him fastball. special style at Magneto but it was just. a distraction for Beast to sneak up from. behind and inject Magneto with the Cure. and a deleted SE Magneto would have. actually tortured Wolverine by bending. the adamantium all over his body causing. excruciating pain so seeing Eric lyncher. losing his power Phoenix finally steps. in and she starts obliterating everyone. and everything only Wolverine with his. regenerative powers can withstand this.

and Jean starts with his suit and we're. kind of back to that flirty line from. the first movie couldn't wait to get my. shirt up again could you Jean is able to. break through all this madness and she. begs Wolverine to save her and he snicks. through her stomach back at the Mansion. two smaller headstones are finally put. up for Scott Summers and Jean Gray Rogue. reveals that she took the Cure and she. and Bobby hold hands but there is an. alternate ending where Rogue says that. she couldn't go through with it either. way assuming this cure is ultimately. ineffective based off of the scene with. Magneto if Rogue and Bobby ever escalate. Beyond handholding yeah look out Bobby.

you're going to look like colossus's. doodle we learned that Beast is now the. ambassador to the UN which makes me. wonder who's going to take his place as. Secretary of mutant Affairs I think. auror Monroe would be a good candidate. Angel flies past the Golden Gate Bridge. which is now under repair and we see. Eric lyncher sitting at a chest table by. himself two other players play with red. and white pieces kind of reminding us of. the red and white sides of mutants. versus humans in X2 Eric lyncher ever so. slightly is able to nedge his metal. piece his powers are returning that. piece is the king we are reminded of th. Twi The Once and Future King but you. only ever move your King as a defensive.

move to avoid a Checkmate or to topple. it to Signal defeat and ultimately. despite his powers coming back here I. think Eric lyncher is admitting defeat. because he has lost his friend who he. would be playing this chess game with or. did he because post credit scene takes. us back to MOA MCT tager hospital room. morning hello. Moira Charles oh boy so presumably. Charles is not dead his consciousness. just transferred to this patient but the. X-Men film series never really picks up.

with this there is an alternate ending. or a post-edit scene that would have. taken Logan back to that Alberta Canada. bar with the same bartender from the. first X-Men film you headed. home something like that okay Deadpool 3. spoilers coming in the danger room I. avoided talking about Storm's new. haircut in this movie halberry got an. awesome glow up for this role and it's. so memorable that fans who follow. halberry on social media were pretty. curious ious over a May 2023 Instagram. post that showed Hal Berry with a new.

white spiky de could this mean that we. are going to see Hy Berry storm in. Deadpool 3 thank you so much for. watching this next week we're going to. be talking about X-Men Origins Wolverine. a movie that's probably going to get. quite a few callbacks in Deadpool 3 I. want to thank Eric Wu and Brandon bar. for helping me write this script you can. support new rock stars by grabbing some. merch From Nerd ride. shop follow me on. all social platforms at eaos And. subscribe to all three channels in the. new rockstars Network thanks for. watching and I'll see you next time. bye.
