I just saw X-men Origins:Wolverine (for reasons i can't explain i couldn't see it in theatres). Most people were whining about Deadpool not being accurate or that sabretooth wasn't accurate and that the movie was made for the non-comic fans, but i gotta say... i can see why the "Non-comic fans" gave it such bad reviews. If you go back and watch it, you will see that it has so many holes, that if you don't fill in the blanks with stuff read in Comics, IT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE. I back this up with proof. I tried my hardest to watch the movie as if I had never read the comics- and this is what i Noticed. First Of all- How does he come to be called 'Logan"?I never says! I Know why, so i got it. But most people didn't. Also- Why is Victor's last name Creed but his father's last name is Logan?Think about that!
Wolverine
Character » Wolverine appears in 16088 issues.
A long-lived mutant with the rage of a beast and the soul of a Samurai, James "Logan" Howlett's once mysterious past is filled with blood, war, and betrayal. Possessing an accelerated healing factor, keenly enhanced senses, and bone claws in each hand (along with his skeleton) that are coated in adamantium; Wolverine is, without question, the ultimate weapon.
X-Men Origins Only Fans can Understand
I thought about that, and yes, his "father" (I really think he was lying),'s last name is Logan, and the name kind of became a nickname of sorts during the movie, that's how I saw it at lest
" @TheAmazingNightblade: I had the exact same problem. They never say where the name Logan comes from. I just hope he kills Mariko with his claws in the second one to have a reason to not want to use them. "
I agree i hope they at least put more emphasis on the second movie
As far as established comic and movie continuity go: Sabertooth should have been the main villian and the big experiment would make him the way he is in X1. Dead Pool should have been a mutant with the exact same powers and body scarring from his healing factor he has in the comics , teleporting power could have been from the power pool thing would have been okay for me. And Gambit should have had red irises, they could have used contacts, and had more card throwing in it. Those are my complaints as a fan. But as far as the Logan thing I never really read X-Men until Dead Pool came out and that and Xforce werethe only X related books I ever read so don't know about the Logan thing.

They call him Logan.......
cause he lost his memory ............ Duh.

" @LauraX23: No they call him Logan because after he first popped his claws and killed the gardener named Logan his grampa told wolverine and rose to leave and never come back wal they were on the run Rose started calling him Logan to help hide them incase Wolverine's Grampa had disided to sell them out and yes he had lost his memory but it had nothing to do with the name chang. "yes..but niether Rose nor his grandpa were in the movie
bump. He is called Logan because after he lost his memory, he asked Gambit what his name was and Remy said Logan.

Remy answered, "Your name is Logan."" bump. He is called Logan because after he lost his memory, he asked Gambit what his name was and Remy said Logan.

i can answer but in the movie im mad about what they did to deadpool they made him the merc without the mouth! But i heard that in the upcoming deadpool movie he gets his mouth back! then again its very possible since disney bought marvel, we wont see our friend wade on the big screen for a LOOONNG time.
i dont know. my favorite part is when Wolverine and Gambit get on the helicopter and Gambit suddenly
loses his accent and is speaking English.
" Hey Gambit, what happened to your accent? "
" What, huh? What do you mean my accent, i never had a...oh, oh yeah, Dis no problem mon ami. "
that and Wolverine blocking a ginormous laser with his claws. aside from the rest of the reasons
that laser that cut a section off that tower was easily blocked being stupid, was the fact that somehow it didnt go
around the claws nor in between.
dam, does comic knowledge even play into that movie when the whole thing was screwed anyways.lol.

I hate what Marvel and Fox are doing with Wolverine's and Sabretooth's origins.I prefer not knowing. Origins as whole doesn't make sense. It's whole bunch of garbage just to get new readers. Th whole thing about Sabretooth not being able to take the adamantuim was crack, his healing factor maybe stronger than Logan's with all the experiments he wants. The Dog Idea? That's crap. A healing factor can not and will not heal past scars, see Deadpool for proof. and you ask why? They are already healed.
