Okay okay so sometimes I want to just have a really long conversation about X-Men.This might be because they've been on tv recently and I'm actually watching Apocalypse right now, but like it's just got so much to talk about. Especially the fact that literally every bad thing that happened/happens/didn't happen? is because of Erik, probably the literal definition of problematic fav.
Honestly, just- stop trying to destroy the world for just one movie?
The Prof is like 10/10 who I want to be, with the overly optimistic views and degrees from Oxford, but you can almost forgive Magneto. Prof came from a privileged family, I mean, if the estate on which the Home is on is anything to go by, and so he may feel so much of others' pain, he hasn't felt a lot himself. Then we have the big M. He's been constantly under fire for who he and his family is for his entire life. First is parents were taken and there was the whole Auschwitz debacle, then he's taken by that evil army nazi dude who uses him and then kills his mother, then his powers get him feared and hated and discriminated against, and then when he actually tries to live a good life his powers get his family ducking killed- by accident no less! Just, he's had a dam hard life and every time he tries to do good it backfires on him, so after growing up seeing every kind of evil possible in his life it's what he falls back on when he's on defence mode. Sometimes you just feel for him, even if I can't properly justify trying to blow up the world like seventeen times.
And if I'm honest going bs because you almost got possessed by an ancient mutant sounds a lot better than just getting old.
Kurt is so clueless and innocent in Apocalypse.
Erik Lensherr may blow you up, big at least he'll help rebuild your home afterwards.
It's always handy having a telekinetic on your side.
Quicksilver tell him pls I need that reaction oh my he'd definitely cry.
Stop humans we don't need nuclear weapons.
Where do you get all this hope and where can I get some?
He doesn't even have any actual children
True true if anyone tried to rob the school they'd be blown up as bad as Erik's world domination dreams.
Such profound much bond.
The movie is ending wowza what a ride I need more and I've already got like fifteen and half of those are obsolete because of the mess that is days of future past someone free me from this prison that is the x-men timeline.
Bye bye and good night I love you all may you all have a slice of the prof's never ending hope.
The end credit scene though
Vacuuming's a biotech
Just like jamdam Stryker
Wooh jobs
[his name is Renè why does no one talk about this]
