Yeah. Kind of along the same lines as Deadpool. Like, maybe Logan is to drama what Deadpool was to comedy? Logan even had kind of a "meta" quality with the referencing X-Men comics.
There were some nice horror undertones to it too. See: Xavier's "seizure" in the casino... pretty terrifying. Also "X-24" vs. Logan. X-24 in general, really. Like I said, he reminded me a bit of the T-1000 fighting the T-whatever-the-fuck (Arnold model).
It didn't really have much of anything in common with "Old Man Logan," except for the road trip vibe and the references to an incident at Westchester. Like, nothing. Oh, there were "Reavers" but they weren't like the horrifying creatures in "Bordertown."
Speaking of Deadpool, I've been reading some interesting Deadpool side stories lately. "Night of the living Deadpool" and "Return of the Living Deadpool" and "Deadpool CORPS." I think they could make a pretty badass movie out of Night/Return.
