So We’re Getting Another Wolverine Movie

Alright, Fox, I’m going to tell you the one way you can make this interesting to me, and stay true to the comics: make this movie about Wolverine and Jubilee.

Deadline reports that Twentieth Century Fox has begun negotiations with James Mangold “for another installment of The Wolverine, with Hugh Jackman bringing back his signature character with the razor sharp adamantium hooks.”

That’s what Deadline said, and I call attention to it only because it’s as hilarious as it is horrifying, like some crazy cross between Wolverine and Texas Chainsaw Massacre where he’s got indestructible meathooks for hands. Oh, and also the idea of making another Wolverine movie. Are you forgetting that it took you four years to make The Wolverine? That was four years that Hugh Jackman was eating unseasoned chicken breasts and kale and lifting weights, I’m sure he wants a break, at least.

Well, prepare yourself for more posters of shirtless Hugh Jackman popping his claws and screaming. And remember what I said at the top, Fox. Put Jubilee in it. Make it a Wolverine dad movie. Channel some Hanna or The Professional or something. Do something new.
