I need to re-watcg Logan. I started it when I was tired. The opening scene just wanted to show that boom this is Rated R Xmen.

Very in love with this director. He can do no wrong and the next Blade Runner looks incredible. I don't know what the fuck this films about, or any of the unanswered questions the film poses, but the same can be said for 2001: A Space Odyssey. So who gives a fuck. It's pretty much an acid trip that almost seems feasible until a certain point. Gyllenhaal was fantastic. Highly recommended.

It is indeed good as **** and Patrick Stewart's best performance in those films easily. And that last fight scene with Logan was definitely the best scene of Wolverine on film.

Denis Villeneuve is my favorite director right now. Both Sicario and Arrival are masterpieces. Will definitely check Enemy out.

Definitely. You ever read the book "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?"
It was the inspiration for the first Blade Runner movie, but they deviated quite a bit from the novel to 'Hollywood-ize" the story. I'm hoping Denis brings some of the missing elements back in. I think he's a mash up director and an evolution to the art. There will never be another Kubrick, Spielberg, Scorcese, etc. But the new breed are fusing all the best of all of them into a whole new direction. I'd add Fernando Meirelles to the mix.
