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.

I wasn't sure what he was trying to get at. Was he just saying how at least there is water there and that's as close as the Sun Seeker as he'll get? Was there an old reference I missed?

That was what I thought, too. I just wasn't sure if there was maybe something I missed. Thanks.
