Trivia: Spoiler: Logan dies at the end, covered in blood and holding his daughter Laura's hand. Director James Mangold has acknowledged that this is a callback to a scene from "The Wolverine" in which Yukio, who can foresee how a person will die, said she saw a vision of Logan covered in blood and holding his heart in his hand. Laura being a metaphor for Logan's heart in this instance.
Logan (2017)
1 suggested correction
Directed by: James Mangold
Starring: Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, Boyd Holbrook, Dafne Keen, Doris Morgado
Factual error: Logan and Laura emerge from an urgent-care clinic in a small town, presumably somewhere in the Great Plains or eastern Rockies. Shortly after they emerge from this clinic, a Louisiana state highway sign is visible in the background. As the scene ends, the camera pulls back to show mountains in the background, indicating that they aren't in Louisiana.
Trivia: The katana seen in Logan's room is the one that Yashida gave him in The Wolverine.
Question: I don't remember if Logan said it or if it was said on the radio. But what happened to the mutants?
Answer: Dr. Rice tells Logan the mutants have been wiped out due to a drug in the food and water supply that suppresses mutations, thus no new mutants had been born in 25 years. In the film series, it's indicated mutant powers usually come out during puberty, so parents don't know their children are mutants until around 12 or 13. So it took over a decade to realise no new mutants had been born. However, the government had been breeding mutants for weapons, which is where the mutant children come from in the Logan film. Furthermore, it is implied the "Westchester Incident" was an uncontrolled seizure of Charles Xavier that resulted in the death of many of the mutant students.

Suggested correction: While this is true, it's important to remember that later in the lab (the parasite removal scene) Yukio specifically says "I saw you die in a room like this with your heart in your hand."
A minor discrepancy in Yukio's vision doesn't invalidate what the director of both films himself considers to be an important point in the narrative.

I didn't say that it invalidated anything. In fact, I started my comment by agreeing that it was true. I was just pointing out that her vision wasn't exactly the same.
Well you submitted it as a correction and not a general reply/comment, so it came across that you were saying it was invalid. Carry on.
