, Observer; What ‘X-Men’ Pulled Off 20 Years Ago, According to Those Who Made It
"Winter hasn’t watched the movie front-to-back in a long time, but has
seen sections and clips. “I don’t know if it ages as well as it could.
But I think the thematics—Is there a place for me? Will I be discarded?—make
the movie relevant whether you’re 14 years old or 84 years old. I think
that discussion is still going on today. How do we find a place?”
Donner believes the success of X-Men helped open the doors for Sony’s Spider-Man franchise,
which laid the groundwork for Marvel’s eventual shared cinematic
universe conquest. But, more importantly, she believes the message of X-Men remains its best contribution.
“The legacy is tolerance,” she said. “We’re all mutants in a way. All
of us. Most of us feel like misfits, and this movie shows that we’re
all good. We’re all equal in who we are and we should be proud of who we
are. Intolerance should not be tolerated.”"
