It was specifically his sense of smell. You can hear him sniffing as ""Storm"" was coming up to him. Mystique does not have the ability to mimic pheromones.
I think literally everyone would enjoy getting their ass kicked by Mystique (the blue chameleon lady)
The Senator's melting scene was almost as traumatic as his sudden transformation into J. Beebz.
"People like you are the reason I was afraid to go to school as a child." Is the greatest line in all of X-Men-dom, and sums it all up.
To answer a few questions in the comics, Mutants are often referred to as Homo Superior. Also, Logan has several powers, healing as well as enhanced senses so he can recognize people's scent. Also, the end credits scenes started with X3.
Poland: OH! 1944: oh . . .
If you put Wolverine, Daredevil, and Spider-Man in a room, you literally could not possibly sneak up on them. Sometimes Wolverine will smell a problem coming before Daredevil hears it, or Spider-Man's Spidey sense detects it.

OMG YES!!! The X-Men mean so much to me, the comics, the adaptations for media. Literally anyone who is marginalized can find inspiration and substance in their allegories. As someone who is queer, the queer allegory has always been so important to me. I'll never forget that in the comics in the 90's some of the writers wanted to do a storyline about the AIDS crisis and when they were told no they did an allegorical story about it. The X-Men are just *really* something special.

The cage fight in which we meet Logan/Wolverine is not a fight between two mutants. Logan was keeping his mutant powers a secret, so he was kinda cheating. That's why the guy he beat tried to stab him at the bar afterwards. He suspected that Logan was a mutant and felt cheated out of his winnings, and that's why the bartender called Logan a "freak." He didn't know that Logan was a mutant either.
The X-Men comics were created in 1963 to reflect the times of prejudice and racism and the fight against it. Charles and Magneto reflect the two head of that fight. Charles believes passive protest and emotional connection to achieve unity, never retaliating with hatred. Magneto has some similar philosophies of those like Malcolm X, “push me and I will push back”. Protecting his own kind against the threat of evil [humanity] by whatever means.

Stan Lee came up with mutants so he wouldn't have to explain how each character got their powers. The social commentary started more during the Claremont era. Whereas the mutants became a metaphor for anyone that feels like a outcast from society, and there was commentary about race on the side.

Not true, Stan created mutants so he didn't need to give every character an origin story, Magneto was a one note villain and most humans respect and even idolise the x men. Chris Claremont later adds the anti mutant bias but it was based on the Holocaust, with magneto being based on an Israeli prime minister who was a terrorist in 1944 but won the nobel peace prize 30 years later. He specifically said that the deaths of both MLK and Malcolm X were too recent to base characters on them.
Stick with this one. Power through, because it let's you get to "Logan". It's a special film, and one of the 2 or 3 best comic book movies ever made. It is one of the few comic book movies that deserved multiple Oscar nominations, particularly for the performances.

Simple way to think about the two sides of the argument. Magneto- Malcolm X, Xiaver- Martin Luther King Jr. As the comics developed, writers began to model them after these two because they both wanted what was best for their people, but believed in different ways of achieving that goal. Xiaver is an idealist who believes in humanity's ability for good and acceptance, while Magneto is a realist who experienced the worst of humanity.
I grew up with these movies as a little girl! I always thought Wolverine and Cyclops were the coolest mutants ever, and sometimes when I'd wear sunglasses I'd pretend like I was shooting lasers out of my eyes like Scott lol. I, like everyone else Im sure, cant wait until you reach the later X-Men films. Logan will make you cry your freakin eyes out, just like it made me
YEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS!!!!! I just know you’re going to absolutely love the X-Men!!!! There’s a lot of great stuff from them (and also not great stuff lol) but I can’t wait for you start this journey!!!!
You are going to love some of these movies and Icannot wait for you to get to "The Wolverine" and especially "Logan". Mutants are generally referred to as "homo sapiens superior" and they are born mutants, but usually their mutation does not really manifest until around puberty, often triggered by stress.
x-men is one of the biggest part of marvel, up until the avengers movies came out, this team AND fantastic four were the biggest teams in the comics. The basic x-men comics throughout the decades evolved into countless comic titles, so it isn't just x-men but x-force, x-factor, wolverine, new mutants, hellions, generation x, ETC ETC, the number of comic titles focusing on mutants/x-men characters are possibly even in the hundreds. The movies get a lot of things wrong, mostly the characters, their personality, who they are, because that is the x-men. While the avengers comics mostly focused on just teamwork, superhero stuff, stopping large threats, the x-men mostly focuses on characters, acceptance, co-existence and representation. While the movies got a lot of these things wrong, because the studio mainly focused just on the variety of the powers and putting in big actors, every x-men animated series PERFECTLY adapts the comics, the character's personalities and the family that the x-men are.
Jennifer Lawrence actively refused to wear the make up for her transformation which is funny because it's the exact opposite of how her character is supposed to be proud to be a mutant. It's even funnier because Rebecca Stamos, who played her in the original movies, loved the make up and was always willing to show it off whenever possible so by default she's a better Mystique than Jennifer.
Wolverine has enhanced senses as well as superhearing, he basically has a canine level sense of smell. That's why he was able to figure out that it was Mystique disguised as Storm and not actually Storm. Also, Cyclops' line about yellow spandex was a nod to the iconic costume Wolverine wears in the comics.
Fun fact- X-Men were created during the period of segregation in America. Magneto and Professor Xavier’s conflicting views of resolving mutant prejudice was inspired heavily by the conflicting ideals of Martin Luther King Jr and Malcolm X.
He knew it was Mystique because he also has very heightened senses. He could smell it wasn’t her.
X Men was number #1 thank you Meg.💞📺📺💞
A 24 year old movie with themes that still hold up well today. Xavier and Magneto are very different than typical heroes and villains they both want their kind to live and prosper but go about it on completely different ways. Xavier wants co-existence between mutants and humans he is the optimist the idealist. Magneto is the jaded cynic he only sees survivor through show of strength and if mutants survive he will gladly wipe out the humans for it. Their ideologies also extend to their respective teams. The X-men are Xavier’s children his family and they work as a team. Contrasts with the Brotherhood who only seek yo follow Magneto’s will even the way they fight the X-men fight together against one of Magneto’s underlings. Yeah Wolverine was the star despite the movie being an ensemble. Funny thing Hugh Jackman was not considered the main pick for the role since at the time he wasn’t physically fit but now its hard to think anyone else could be Wolverine. Back then when I first saw this movie I didn’t think much of Cyclops but now knowing what I know as a comic fan they really did Scott dirty.
Cyclops is the leader of X-Men in the comics , that’s y there was his line to Charles that he will take care of them. Cyclops and Storm were done dirty according to fans of the characters

Not the only ones sadly. What they did to Rogue, not specifically in this movie but in the whole franchise, was bad.
Fun fact: Bryan Singer said that the movie wouldn't have been made if not for the success of X-Men The Animated Series (1992-1997)!
So when the X-Men were created it was the height of the civil rights movement in the US and many saw them as a metaphor for racial prejudice. Then 35+ years later Sir Ian McKellen saw them as a metaphor for anti-LGBTQ+ prejudice.That's the power of the concept - mutants can be _any_ "other" and so, cuz humans gonna hume, they're kind of eternally relevant.

Chris Claremont is the Godfather of X-Men and someone worth checking out. Stan Lee and Jack Kirby may have created the X-Men, but Claremont is who made them what we love today. He wrote the series from 1975 to 1991. He gave Magneto his Jewish Holocaust backstory and gave us the history of Xavier and Magneto being former friends. He created Rogue, Gambit, Kitty Pryde and many many more! There is an awesome Documentary on him on KZread. I think it's called Claremont's X-MEN. I highly highly highly recommend checking it out!
Happy Spring👍
YYYEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSS!!! Welcome to one of the greatest comic book properties of all times.
"Why is she here?" There is a lot in the comics that has been cut out of the movies (time and space considerations). Rogue left home and was with Caliban in the sewers of New York for years. Then Caliban said "There's somebody up in Canada that can endure your presence." Now this could have been a lot of people (Romulus, Wild Child, Sabertooth, Tundra ect.) but it just so happened it was Logan she ran into.
So glad you are watching the X-men series!!! Just bear in mind, the sets of movies are quite fast and loose with the timeline. Things we not make perfect sense.
The themes of X-Men are as relevant today as they were in the 60s when the comic first came out. The sequel to this movie is even better, then it's hit or miss the rest of the way with this franchise--but definitely worth the watch. If you want to know what happened to Eric immediately after he bent the gate, wait for FIRST CLASS. Enjoy!
For many years X-men was the #1 comic in the US, certainly outselling the Avengers.
These movies really take a bias with Wolverine, and while they’re enjoyable, once you see other X-Men medias besides these Fox movies, you’ll see the other X-Men members used to their fullest potential. Glad you’re starting this journey though, easily my favorite super hero team.
excited we all are for meg to be reacting to the x-men movies, let's try not to spoil what is to happen in the future films f we can help it. much better when meg is surprised a lot of us will agree yes ^_^
I hope that if you go through more of the X-Men media, you eventually give chance to X-Men the animated series, but especially the new X-Men 97 animated show. Its a masterpiece.
Many of your questions will be answered in X2 ^^
In the comics, while humans are homo sapiens, mutants are considered homo superior.
These "Children of The Atom", created by Stan Lee & Jack Kirby. Currently it's the 60th Anniversary. At the time, X-Men was the no.1 superhero team/comic book series. But the success would 'evolve' even further with becoming Marvel's 2nd franchise on film. The original longest running, shared universe with it's first major, superhero team. Although they were around for over 30 years at this point, their meteoric rise through multimedia made them unstoppable (animated series, toys video games, etc). From their further rising, came this 'ultimate' first installment. Hyper-realistic with social commentary and a few other things in between without being a overly 'comic-book' movie. The late Richard Donner and his wife, Lauren-Shuler Donner were executive producers (The Donners' Company) of the film series. Great cast, good writing, bold direction and treatment of the characters. Patrick Stewart as Professor X and Hugh Jackman (his film debut) as Wolverine would become seminal to this saga. Over 20 years on film and most of it succeeded more than failed. If you wish to journey onward, prepare for a real evolution.
24:50 “I’m not agreeing with Magneto, of course…” 😆😆😆 Yeah, we’ve all been there, give it time 😜 LOVED THE REACTION!!! Please continue with the X-Men movies! Would also love to see your reaction to the OG 90’s animated series and follow up with the new X-Men 97’ animated series.

You might like The Nevers. It's like the X-Men, but set in Victorian England. It's only ten episodes and everything is pretty much wrapped up by the end.
Oh hell yeah! I am so here for your X-Men journey!
Holy s**t, I’m so excited for you to watch this series!
Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch were originally mutants and children of Magneto, but when Marvel lost the rights to Fox they were changed for MCU synergy. That’s why in the MCU Wanda and Pietro were never called Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver, and that’s why both volunteered to undergo genetic experimentation for their powers.
He called them Homo sapiens because he’s evolved. “Homo Superior” as he calls them. He sees mutants as evolved.
For me I found X-Men through the comics in the 80s, they were my first real comic book love. I think generally their villains are better than the average Avenger villain because so often they have a reason for doing what they are doing and it is almost never about money. (that does not mean their are not bad ones because comics but there are so many more interesting ones. Magneto hates humanity driven by the holocaust, and so he is a compelling person because his whole concept is to protect Mutants against Humanity "by any means necessary" He is not some rich guy just wanting to gain more money or power. The fact that he is the flip side of Charles in opinion makes him stand out even more. I also like the story of the X-Men, a group based on fighting against discrimination and hatred by saving those that despise them which they have to do in order to be heroes. They have always been very interesting. X-Men series is a complicated one with ups and downs but some of them are my favourite super hero movies.
I highly recommend the new X-men animated series. It is a continuation of the 90s cartoon, but you don't need to watch it to understand.
Go in release order there is so much content you're going to love awesome I truly like the way you break movie's down you have a great perspective cant wait to watch the next one with you !!!😂
To answer the question about being canon to MCU. Its not. It was its own thing owned by Fox. The MCU will be doing a complete reboot down the line now that they own Fox and can now legally use mutant characters. That being said, Xmen movies have a strange relationship with their own canon so good rule of thumb as you get further through the franchise is don't think too hard about continuity.
The fact that the J-Law/Mystique "Bloo-bies" connection never happened makes me very sad lmao
The movie is a good way to introduce the concept of X-Men. That said it only introduces the BASIC concept of it. All the movies take liberties with the source material. If you actually want to watch a comic accurate take then the 1990s animated series is still the best one.
41:38 Wolverine has other powers apart from just healing. He has heightened senses.
You know Logan/Wolverine has got another power. Sassing up the place. 😅
I’m so mad I missed this on Patreon, glad I got it now. Recommend checking out X-Men either on Marvel Unlimited or in Epic Collections if you want to read more. And if you missed the analogy, think of it this way - think of the mutant cause as civil rights in the 1960s. Magneto’s point of view is analogous to Malcom X, Charles’s is analogous to Martin Luther King Jr. Just depends on your perspective who is right - aggressive resistance or passive resistance.
Mutant (Homo Superior) --- X-Men --- Brotherhood of Mutants --- Morlocks (Not really shown in the movies)
You may not like Toad in this, but the actor is….DARTH MAUL! 😊
Wolverine can know its mystique because his mutation idnt just healing and claws his senses are elevated to an animalistic level which adds to his animal furiosity and theme

Someone already suggested the original X-Men animated series (1992) and it's a fantastic summary and far more accurate than the FOX movies. Plus after you're done you can watch X-Men '97 which is the best thing Marvel has done in years! The Jewishness of the X-Men creators (Jack Kirby, Stan Lee) and the best X-Men writer (Chris Claremont) strongly influences the characters. Xavier and Erik have a MLK v. Malcolm X thing, but they're also both two sides to "Never again." Charles believes that "never again" applies to all peoples. Erik (who is Jewish) believes it applies to his people (mutants) and that any action is justified to prevent another Holocaust. There's times they're both right and times they're both wrong, but Magneto has increasingly become an anti-hero over the decades. ♥
42:02 he has hyper senses , he was able to "smell" that it was Mystique
Not me completely drawing parallels between the metaphors of this film and the sinister reality going on right now in red states in the US where trans people are being followed around in public and arrested in bathrooms, and books on gay education are being banned. :(
I was wondering if you'd ever get into X-Men, glad to see a start for another journey
if you wanna watch more X-Men, I highly recommend The original animated series from the 90s, especially since it finally got a sequel series recently
X-men 2000, I think, was the movie that made Hollywood finally realize that good comicbook movies could be a goldmine. Soon after this we got the Rami Spiderman movies and it took off from there. To top it off the x-men is a franchise whose themes revolve around the issues you mentioned, like prejudice which can be a difficult topic to tackle. As for who directed this movie... Bryan Singer is a scumbag who we don't like to talk about, even though he made some good movies
Small correction on your view on Logan's power: He was born a mutant, his mutations is his exceptional healing. The experiment done to him was to add the adamantium to his skeleton, which he only could survive because of his mutation.

Mutations are mostly random, but their are some cases where there is a certain mutations that can runs through a bloodline that can be similar in nature or evolve through generations, or I some cases a power can be directly passed down. Like in the comics, Cyclops has 2 younger brothers that also have energy based abilities. Cyclops has concussive optic blasts, Havok can emit energy waves of plasma from his body, and Vulcan, the youngest brother can manipulate, control and absorb vast amounts of energy.
That tod character actor also acted darth Maul on star wars.
Some of Logan's mutant abilities include a heightened sense of smell, so if he doesn't detect your distinct scent, he'll know it's not really you, and in that case ... SNIKT! If you watch some scenes again, you can clearly see him sniff the air, probably looking to sense if somethings off. That's why he stabbed Mystique: he knew she was mimicking Storm.
I do believe this was my first comic book film I ever watched. And it feels appropriate, since X-Men are without a doubt the best of Marvel.
Wolverine Weapon X is the top pick for Wolverine's origin story in the comics :)
Interestingly, Rogue's struggled for a very long time with her powers but, and i might be misremembering, i believe at one point it was confirmed that her powers activating and sending that boy into a coma during their kiss traumatized her and her subconscious put her powers into "always on" mode to prevent it from happening again. Once that became clear, Xavier (?) Helped her process and deal with the trauma which allowed her to not only turn her powers off but begin learning control, such as only borrowing a mutant's powers without draining life force etc.
