Yeah, I really don't have a problem with this news. Although, I always wished they'd gone with the alternate ending for Logan in X3, with him running back to Canada and ending up in the same dive bar from the first movie. It seemed more the sort of thing he'd do after mercy-killing Jean, rather than staying on to help run the school in Xavier's stead. Given this latest news it would have been a better ending to lead into this new film, too.

Actually, there are a LOT of alternate scenes from X3 I wish they'd stuck with. Some terrible decisions were made with this film.
