10 Non-Rated R Films That Dropped The F Bomb To Great Use
3. X-Men: First Class
The Drop: "Go f*** yourself." On the Marvel note, how about one of their biggest badasses putting in his two cents in the form of a cameo appearance? X-Men: First Class stole my heart with its careful attention to detail and clear fondness for the source material. With so many solid moments, there had to be a handful of moments referencing the original trilogy at some point. This indeed happened when Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr went on the hunt for mutant recruits after using a demo version of Cerebro, created by Hank McCoy. They came across those they wished to utilise into their cause, eventually running into the one and only Wolverine in a bar while he smoked a cigar. Charles and Erik approach Wolverine, introducing themselves by name. After the potted introduction Wolverine, without looking at both men, rudely replies, "Go f*** yourself." In a Marvel film full of awesome moments, this was among the best. All the small nuances and nods reached a fever pitch, and about halfway through the fans were greeted with this absolute shocker of an F bomb.
