Watched X-men: Apocalypse on Tuesday, very entertaining movie. Their version of Quicksilver definitely trumps the Avengers version. Guess he "didn't see that coming", ba dum tss :)
Was wondering how humans can still be living so casually in a world with mutants powerful enough to wreck the entire planet. I mean, Magneto is literally strong enough to change the poles of this Earth. Maybe they are procrastinating, waiting for mutants to turn against each other and kill themselves off, same plan as that Zemo guy had in the recent Avengers movie.
And that this entire movie occurred due to a Human error, not covering up after herself. But I like the reference that things that are swept under the carpet will one day have light shine on them, and the ugly truth will be revealed.
Other than that, I really love the opening statement. Cannot remember the exact lines, but it has something to do with control. Power without control is a disaster. You can give a man wings, but without control, he will fly to the sun and burn.
And one final takeaway from the movie. I feel that this movie speaks so much about real life. Many a times we have that much power in us, yet we do not believe that we are capable of performing beyond our own limitations. Then along comes someone with capabilities of amplifying our power, way beyond what we believe we can do. But ultimately, it is not our power that defines us, but our beliefs, and we have to take the path we believe in and not ones others try to lead us into.
