The main thing I remember is that I actually thought this film was pretty good when it came out. Maybe not an all time blow away experience, but given the trailers seemed pretty awful I was pleasantly surprised.

The main thing I remember is that I actually thought this film was pretty good when it came out. I think for the most part it still holds up. There's definitely a tangible sense of "ashamed to be a comic book movie" about it, and a few of the supporting characters have absolutely no character development, but the good things far outweigh the bad. McKellen and Stewart are absolute titans, and for someone who didn't get the role until a month into filming Jackman absolutely nailed Logan.

Still one of my favorite movies. I think my mom may still have my VHS copy of it. LOL.

The only thing I remember about the film is the Comicbook adaptation, that I got to read during my first train trip alone to my best friend's place.
I threw up at the train station.

I watched the Rifftrax of it for the first time last night. Always heard it was one of the best Rifftrax, and dang it absolutely is. If you're a Rifftrax/MST3K fan or just curious about a hilarious way to revisit the film, definitely check it out.

You know what happens when, 20 years ago today, the first X-Men movie is released?
The same thing as everything else.

I don't think it holds up all THAT well in terms of quality now, but you have to judge it on a curve of typical comic fare then. It's ok with some great casting. Decent watch now just VERY much of its time.

And 20 years ago today Magneto was stuck on a freeway. That's not a freeway, I used to live a few blocks from there!😂😂😂
