Wolverine 3 - "Logan"

[steveh_131]

I never got much into comic books, but I've watched Hugh Jackman bring Wolverine to life for the past 16 years and have grown quite attached to his character.

This will be the last time we see him played by Hugh Jackman and the last appearance of Patrick Stewart as Xavier.

Knowing all this, combined with the Johnny Cash version of 'Hurt' really made for a powerful trailer. Check it out:

Saw this earlier. Looks good!

Definitely started to bring the feels around the 1:00 mark.

That looked good. But I'm confused. Wolverine 3? What were the first 2?

 

[T.Lex]

Wow.

The stories coming out of Marvel, and I'll even say the Star Wars franchise, are really compelling.

And that's from a non-comic book geek.

Yes, they certainly are. This one is a bit of a departure, though. Seems to stand alone. More character-driven, more passion. And R-Rated so we should hopefully see Wolverine make a real last stand.

It reminds me of movies like man on fire, leon, the man from nowhere... but with a character we already know and love. And since it's his last time in the role, they can take it in any direction they want.

Looks like it may be a good movie, but I won't pay to see it. I only support actors/actresses who support what I believe in, and Hugh Jackman has been on the record of supporting gun control and standing with the group "Everytown for Gun Safety".

Snickity Snickity snoink.

He's not even an American citizen. He can run off at the mouth all he wants. If something is entertaining I'll watch it regardless of their stances. If I boycotted every actor that I disagreed with, I'd be left watching paint dry. And if you want to take your theory further, I doubt there's a movie studio that employs these actors that isn't headed by people with the same opinion. Hollywood is quite liberal.

X23.

X23.

That's probably the thing I'm most excited about.

 

[steveh_131]

So I'm gonna get with a couple friends and watch the whole X-Men movie series before this arrives in theaters.

I can't decide if we should watch them in chronological order or in the order they were released.

Thoughts?

 

[T.Lex]

Chronologically by story. Then there's the additional fun of continuity issues.

 

[steveh_131]

That's what I was thinking. But watching them in the release order might contribute more to the nostalgia. Tough call.

Oh boy. I bet you're fun at parties.

Hugh looks like Mel here, and Mel was voted by fans back then to be the Wolverine.

Bingo.

This comment deserves a rep .

Probably the best post ever. I'll be watching it.
