Published 2024-02-11
The Wolverine remains one of the most overlooked X-Men films from the Fox era, with Logan (Hugh Jackman) venturing to Japan to reunite with a man from his past during the WWII bombing of Nagasaki. But with the inclusion of the Silver Samurai and Viper, this remains a Marvel X-Men movie through and through. We revisit The Wolverine scene by scene to break down the film for its Marvel references, its bizarre post-credit scene, its alternate ending, and its connections to the other films of the X-Men saga, including the upcoming Deadpool 3!
We're doing a theater show in Los Angeles on February 15th! Get tickets here - newrockstars.link/live-feb

The Silver Samurai drilling into Wolverine's bone marrow will forever be engrained into my brain. That was hard to watch.
-
I’m tryna sleep and y’all upload I guess I’ll be up for another 30 mins
-
The body Charles transferred his consciousness into at the end of The Last Stand was his brain-dead twin brother - thus, he continues to look exactly like Charles. The only thing not really explained was why he still needed a wheelchair, but I suppose that could be explained by the fact the brother's body was bed-ridden his entire life since he was born without a consciousness. Charles mental abilities were so strong he wiped his twin's mind in the womb.
-
I love how Magneto calls him by his mutant name and Charles calls him by his human name.
-
When Yukio told Logan "not on this plane" all I could think is perhaps on another plane of existence. Food for thought
-
The Wolverine is underrated honestly Wolverine with a Katana is just a cool visual
-
I think Wolverines’s bath scene is an homage to the 1980 TV mini series Shogun. If I remember correctly, there’s a pretty similar scene where the protagonist gets forcefully put in a bath
-
The Wolverine as a film was just unexpected for me and I kinda love it
-
I think the Patrick Stewart appearance in the airport, whilst confusing at the time because of the timeline, can kinda be explained with some form of mental projection. Sure, his consciousness might not be in a body that looks like him, but with how strong Professor X is, it's not hard to assume he could just be using a mental projection of himself, at least to Logan (and the characters we see in DoFP before the timeline change) so they can understand it all easier.
-
One of my favorite films of all time. Specifically because after a horrible day, my mom randomly took me to the cinema to see this film without me knowing. I loved every second of it.
-
I love the wolverine vs shingen fight. Especially when his regenerate is back
-
Such an underrated film. 🔥🙌
-
I'm sooooo hyped for DP3
-
That robotic parasite reminds me of the kill switch that was inside of Rocket Raccoon in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3. Both of them are similar, being experimented animals( or in Logan's case animal adjacent)
-
My favourite of the Wolverine movies.
-
Yo. An upload this early is ridiculous. I’m at work right now. 😂 Now I gotta take a break and I just got here.
-
Stanley’s Whiskey is a great touch
-
Can't wait till you guys cover Logan ❤
-
Listening to this while working out in my Wolverine shirt 😎🩷
-
In 22:04 the plane that is seen is a Boeing 747 not a 737, this is one of my favorite Wolverine movies, as the more vulnerable he gets, the more dangerous he becomes
