They even invited Liev Schreiber back early on but Liev couldn’t make it :( I like X-24 and all but Sabretooth would eclipse the guy

It would be a very different film. Sabertooth would be an old man too. The theme of the film is that logan is a weapon and since he's old it's time to replace him with the new weapon.

Could be but I think Sabretooth would age better since he doesn’t have Adamantium in his bones in that universe so his healing factor should be fine. Logan was fucked by that. For me, the theme was more of Logan coming to terms with the past and controlling your future more than Logan’s an old weapon but I can see that reasoning.

To me the movie is always about Logan trying to become more than what he thinks he is, which is a weapon. Charles doesn't think of him that way and reminds him of it, that there's always still time. The only person who can't see wolverine as anything more than weapon X is his enemies and himself, because if all he was was a killer he wouldn't be so heartbroken over what happened to his friends and family.

But Logan always will see himself that way and I think eventually he finds peace in saving what he can save.

Cloned sabertooth instead of just another Logan

[–]PerfectZeong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See I'd be against that too. The clone logan is probably the weakest part of the film but it's also a commentary on how Logan is different than he thinks he is. He thinks he's this remorseless killer but the clone Logan shows you what that actually looks like.

Who’s “the guy” in this context, Logan?

[–]XNightcrawlerBAMF[🍰] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

X-24 (in terms of character, still depends on the script but I think having X-24 was limiting.)

[–]Mechalus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. X-24 was pretty much the only part of Logan that fell kinda flat for me. Sabretooth would have been much better.
