A solid 8. Would've liked less "Ian McKellen is gay" jokes, but some of those were pretty funny.

Are they as constant in the Lord of the Rings riffs?

I voted a 9.

Solid jokes all the way thru without any lulls.

No, not even close.

The after-credits scene was the patient that was in the video Xavier asked the TV clicker kid to turn on in the beginning, where that doctor talked about the morality of transferring a mind into a vegetative person, or something like that. Basically, the after-credits scene suggested Xavier did that.

Oh, okay...I guess. So, when he transfers his mind into the guy, his larynx also gets transferred?
VIVA IL ESORDIO DEL DIABETE ADULTO DUCE!!!

So, could it be "Magneto is gay" more than "Ian McKellen is gay"? Magneto's wardrobe is much sillier looking than Gandalf's. Sir Ian is a noble actor, and I never think "that's a gay man" when he's on screen. Do you think they'd make the same gay jokes if they riffed Apt Pupil?

Doesn't matter who it supposed to be about, it was more than was needed.

I gave it a 9 as well.  Solidly funny with several strings of gut-buster riffs.
