    Watched this tonight.

    I don't like superhero movies, I'd go so far as saying I hate them.

    But I really enjoyed this.

    Didn't drag at all which considering it's near 2.5 hour run time is some feat.

    If more were made like this then I'd certainly pay to see them.

    Except Deadpool.

    Deadpool can suck my ass.



    Deadpool probably would and all

    The Noir version is awesome too!

    Is the noir version just the same movie, but done in black and white?

    How does it translate across? I know black and white movies had to be filmed in a certain way with regards to lighting and cameras. My assumption is that Logan wasn't, so was retroactively made black and white. Is there a noticeable difference in quality?

    Re-grading in black and white can produce good results. See Fury Road "black and chrome" edition which I thought looked fantastic. But they put a lot of work into that. Adjusting the contrast, blacks, etc. Logan "noir" seemed like a half-arsed grayscale conversion to me.

    That's what I kind of thought. It's like when they retroactively make movies into 3D. And they just look awful.

    Considering how neutered he's been in the X-Men movies, absolutely.
