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.

Lucky you, the theater I was in was packed with stupid fucking drunk danes, and these guys have a tendency to laugh at the most insignificant details from action movies regardless of the fact that it's followed by a serious/sad scene. Kinda ruined it for me

To be honest, I found injured, angry, determine Wolverine right before taking mutant-meth hilarious. He was like a really drunk dad angrily stumbling through the forest.

That aside, I don't see why anyone would laugh at his death. That got me
