I think of all the X-men films, Jackman as Wolverine and Stewart as Professor X were the two best cast actors for their roles despite the differences from the source material. I only watched the 90s animated series, but these two actors really seemed to bring the characters to life. Wolverine’s height didn’t bother me, and I think the British accent for Professor X was actually an improvement.

Reply to comment by CodsWhallop in TIL Stan Lee made the X-Men mutants because he didn't want to come up with a reason for their super powers, instead they were just born with them. Additionally the 1963 comic was initially a flop until the 1975 reboot by Len Wein and Dave Cockrum. by jamescookenotthatone
