I tried to see this another way, say that character was played by, I don't know, let's say Beyonce. Would the filmmakers have got away with the hero saying "you twisted b**** bitch"? I don't think so. Would it be different again if Logan was also played by a black actor? Should it?
    Seeing the movie tomorrow, but this is just another great example of FOX's poor treatment of their Marvel property, and their failed undertsanding of the source material.

    I can't believe a line like that made it into the final script, really disappointing!

    It'll be a great day when and if the X-Men film properties make it back to Marvel Studios/Disney.
