Wolverine

(PG-13: Language) “The end is in the beginning.” Logan and Children of Men have very similar plots. But Lessons from the Screenplay points out that both movies also have nicely set up character arcs, and a literal journey that externalizes their change of heart.

In the latest episode of Man at Arms: Reforged, the folks at Baltimore Knife & Sword Co. find out just how much of a pain in the ass it is to forge and grind titanium. They used the rare metal to make replicas of Logan’s clone, X-23.

YouTuber Yoko Higuchi shares what is surely just one of the thousands of inevitable online tributes to Hugh Jackman and his 17-year stint as Wolverine. Johnny Cash’s cover of Hurt is the slow motion of soundtracks, but if you watched Logan you know that the song is a great fit.

An awesome bit of behind-the-scenes footage of Hugh Jackman in a post-production ADR session for a thrilling sequence in Logan. We are so ready for the meme in which these sounds are dubbed over other scenes.
