0:19-0:21 bad mistake

Hopefully The Wolverine 2 will be bloody, that's the name for part 2, and I don't remember Deadpool having everyone's powers, and why didn't they include Raven(Mistyqe) or Omega Red??? Ugh damn director

[eastcoastwood]

I really enjoyed this movie as much as the x-men series. My only complaint is it could have been longer. I found we were introduced to characters and then it moved on so fast. I do not read the comics but I enjoyed the movies so the fast pace was not in-depth enough for me. Hugh Jackman and Liev Schrieber were definitely the heart of the film.

i felt bad for the kid......

[mooseasaurusrex]

Read many of the comics?

Yeah well, you'd better put 'em back in the mylar bags with the acid free back boards!

@1993MovieMan i don"t agree with you i think your logic is flawed but i respect your point of view though. hope you had a good chrismas and have a great new year.

[1993MovieMan]

@KaraLVRogueLZ I noted The Adamantium Bullet and it`s likely that Stryker took Logan to The Alkali Lake Facility for The Majority of The Brainwashing and Sadistic " Tests " we know of from " X2 " and " X-Men : The Official Game " ! The Claw Mark is likely from when Logan finally got sick of it all and escaped !

[KaraLVRogueLZ]

@1993MovieMan ok explain this if stryker moves around like you say how come the lab Logan finds in x-2 has his claw mark in the wall if he did not get his metal bones there. i understand what your saying but your logic in my view is flawed. in origins weapon x did not erase his memorys the bullets did or whatever. i like singers take darker gritter horific. Hoods version was to kiddy in my opion.
