“Mutants. Since the discovery of their existence they have been regarded with fear, suspicion, often hatred. Across the planet, debate rages. Are mutants the next link in the evolutionary chain or simply a new species of humanity fighting for their share of the world? Either way it is a historical fact: Sharing the world has never been humanity's defining attribute.”

Happy 20th Anniversary to X2: X-Men United

x2: xmen united (2003) is the peak of cinema and I’m tired of pretending otherwise

u got rogue/wolverine dynamics you have magneto at his most devious when he’s not hanging around making snarky comments with mystique and you have the introduction of kitty pryde and colossus AND NIGHTCRAWLER and wolverine is literally running around looking disheveled the entire movie what more could you ask for

#logans disgusted face when mystique shifts into rogue to try and seduce him will never be topped im sorry #they r father and daughter u cannot take that away from me #max goes to the movies #x2: x-men united #xmen

X2: X-Men United (2003)

There have been A LOT superhero movies since the genre really blew up in 2000 with X-Men. The fact that X2: X-Men United remains one of the best means a lot. There aren’t many sequels which top their predecessors but this is one of them. Full of great character moments with the characters we've come to love and with plenty of contestants for new favorites, it’s got action, suspense and many reasons to come revisit it over and over again.

After Nightcrawler (Alan Cumming) - a teleporting, blue-skinned mutant - attempts to assassinate the U.S. President (Cotter Smith), he allows William Stryker (Brian Cox) to shut down Charles Xavier’s school for mutants. Actually, Stryker's goal isn't merely to capture the mutants; he wants Professor X (Patrick Stewart) and his mutant tracking computer, Cerebro. With their leader gone and the students on the run, the X-Men have no choice but to turn to Magneto (Ian McKellen) for help.

When we met Wolverine (Hugh Jackman), the film took us for a loop by revealing that the most important mutant at Xavier's school was Rogue (Anna Paquin), not him. This twist made us even more eager to learn about Logan’s past. Was his adamantium-laced skeleton and those mechanical retractable claws (the series hadn’t yet retconned these to be a natural part of his mutation) some kind of ultimate weapon program gone wrong? Something forced upon our amnesiac hero? The answer comes in the form of the mutant-hating Stryker, a great baddie that poses an extreme threat because he’s smart and ruthless. There are some deliciously gross and squishy moments waiting for you as you piece together the lengths he’ll go to. It gives me the willies thinking about what he did to his mutant son - almost as much as learning what his son did to his mother.

There are many scenes to make your skin crawl. Magneto’s escape from his plastic prison (a favourite moment of mine), the final battle between Wolverine and Lady Death Strike (Kelly Hu), Stryker’s domination of Magneto…. you probably didn't expect those fom an action superhero film. Neither did you foresee the emotional blows. Bobby “Iceman” Drake (Shawn Ashmore) betrayed by his brother, the children being taken away by Stryker’s forces in the middle of the night, Mystique (Rebecca Romijn-Stamos) teasing Wolverine with her shapeshifting powers, Jean Grey (Famke Janssen) sacrificing herself... There’s a lot going on. A lot to love.

It’s hard to pick a favourite thing about this follow-up. You suddenly find yourself routing for the mutant terrorist Magneto because we’ve been given an even bigger, more sinister foe for our heroes. That’s no small feat. X2 is a confident picture with a lot of balls in the air and director Brian Singer (who’s fallen out of favour today but was a wizard behind the camera) keeps them all afloat, all perfectly distanced to keep the balance and the excitement flowing smoothly.

What’s there NOT to like in X2? It builds on the success of the first in so many meaningful ways. You see the younger X-Men grow into adults, the love triangle between Jean, Wolverine and Scott “Cyclops” Summers (James Marsden) get even more tangled, heroes like Storm (Halle Berry) in a whole new light and villains suddenly become heroes. This film gives you a lot to digest, making it a superhero adventure you eagerly return to over and over. (On Blu-ray, May 19, 2019)

Please make gifs of Brian Cox's Masterclass on Acting.

I actually haven't seen Succession. But I love him so much. He was Stryker in X2, and the guys who played that character later on just showed how hard it is to make that kind of bullshit work.

He was also in Red with Helen Mirren (who, if you scroll just a little bit on my blog you will see I also love) and I remember watching that and thinking, "This should be a movie about Brian Cox and Helen Mirren. Why is Bruce Willis even here?" (He was probably already having medical issues then so I don't want to sound like I'm hating.)

He's just really good even in bad roles. There should be an Oscar for people who are good in bad roles. It's way harder than being good in well-written shit.

i don't rly care about what's going on with the mcu multiverse or the plot or whatever the only metric of quality wrt deadpool 3 is whether him and wolverine fuck nasty or not. they won't but disney had the potential to make the greatest movie of all time

#bisexual wolverine will win either way coz either he's bi (win) or i'll delude myself into thinking he's bi (win)#for the record i dont rly care abt him like that i dont need bi wolverine to win i just need disney to lose #plus bi wolverine already won in x-men 2: x2: x-men united (2003)#marvel #mcu #deadpool #deadpool 3 #deadpool & wolverine #wolverine #james howlett #wade wilson #deadpool x wolverine #i hate tagging marvel there's so many sub categories. but i cant not
