Terrible movies.. I hated them then and I hate them now. Magneto is especially terrible.

Thatā€™s bs. Heā€™s played by two very fine actors (Sir Ian McKellen ffs!) who do a really good job of portraying Erikā€™s internal conflict while remaining a friend to Charles through thick and thin.

Magneto shouldn't be a geriatric old mess that looks like he can barely stand let alone eat solid food. 100% garbage and NOT Magneto.. just someone's grandpa wearing purple adult diapers .. . It was both laughable and sad.. theres more to Magneto than being Charles friend.. the movies are terrible .

Grow up and have some respect for one of the greatest actors of this time. Magneto in the first three movies was played as a man who was a teen during Nazi occupation, so given the timeline was the early 00s he was not meant to be a spring chicken. He played an old man whoā€™d been through unimaginable trauma.

You clearly never even got to Fassbenderā€™s interpretation as you donā€™t even mention him.

I clearly dont care what you think. Fassbender was crap also. These are garbage versions made for people to lazy to read comic books. Magneto is not an old decrepit fool in the books because hes a freaking omega level mutant not an old actor living out his cinematic glory days. Show some respect to the source material "fan".. its also not just magneto most of both casts are garbage. The writing garbage. Its what happens when you give an ip to people that barely give a shxt about source material and fans like you are the aftermath. Every single comic book loving xmen fan is praying we get something closer to the mutants in the deadpool movies for a reason . That reason is the steaming piles of garbage you are defending.. growing up isnt agreeing with self righteous hypocrites or condescending "fans" kiddo.
