They should reboot and let Marvel/Disney spearhead it
This is based on the Old Man Logan comic series. In that series, the villains all banded together and defeated the super heroes. They now control territories of America like 3rd world Warlords.rhutton125 said:
I stand by DoFP. I think it's great. And given Wolverine's arc through 5 previous films, it's great to see him as someone who's been through it all, and has come to terms with his grief, but also has a chance to set it right and prevent a lot of the pain he's had in his life. He wasn't doing it for Jean, but for all mutantkind... and in doing so he was able to save Jean after all.
Apocalypse was balls though. Very disappointing.
I feel like any trailer would look a lot more somber and heart-felt with Hurt as the music, but it did also seem very appropriate for this film. If you're the oldest living mutant, like Wolverine likely is, you know it's going to end with you burying everyone you care about at some point or another.
Also, the best part of The Wolverine is that he was briefly de-powered. This film is wise to return to that. Wolverine ranges from a raging animal to a strong protector - when he's vulnerable, he has to be animal to BE a protector. Otherwise he can just walk through bullets and swords like they're nothing.
My only worry about this one is that it does seem to invalidate the end of DoFP. Somehow in the ~20? years after the new-future ending, we're supposed to buy that Jean, Cyclops, Colossus, Rogue, Iceman, Kitty, Storm and Beast are all dead? Not even the Sentinels pulled that off.
Finish Wolverine strong, make a funny Deadpool sequel, then reboot in 6 years.

logan lives a pretty rough lifestyle. booze will do that to youdromo07 said:
DOFP happened in the year 2023
Xavier is 82 years of age in that. So if this is set 10 years after those events he is in his 90s. The issue I guess for me is the rapid aging of Logan in just 10 years I guess compared to Xavier

So a year after DOFP? That really makes no sense

Fox has four Avatar sequels coming in the meantime
Except that that timeline doesn't exist anymore. Weird though that they are jumping from the early 80's of Apocalypse to all the way to 2024 in movies released less than a year apart.dromo07 said:

I can't believe the first movie came out 16 years ago. Has it really been that long ago?
