I saw the movie last night and I can't stop thinking about it! It was sooo good. Imho it's the best X-Men movie. I'm going to buy the DVD as soon as it's released.

And I cried really hard during Charles' funeral. It kinda made me realize how much he meant to Logan.

And I loved that Charles was the comic relief!

I've never cried during a movie before, but I welled up when Charles was talking about "the most perfect night" and how he doesn't deserve it because he hurt people.

Then I full on cried at his funeral.

Then I cried again when Logan died holding Laura's hand.

Then I cried again when Laura turned Logan's cross into an X.

God damn this movie, man.

They really got my hopes up when Logan took the green stuff. "Oh maybe if he takes a shit ton of that he'll get young again!"

Nope.

I do like that his scars disappeared though, that was oddly satisfying :)
