I'd enjoy seeing him again. But "Liev Schreiber back as Sabertooth!" hardly seems the "Holy Sh*t!" thing they're saving it out to be.

He's probably metal hand dude's secret weapon against Logan/X-23. So far no villain we've seen in the movie trailers appear that they'd be able to go one-on-one with Wolverine (though I bet metal hand dude's hand is made of adamantium... I can just see him catching Wolverine's claws in a scene) and I can't imagine that they leave it like that.

The twist, I bet, is that Sabertooth double-crosses metal hand man, uniting with Wolvie against him and his cronies.

Hot damn the first reviews are coming in, IGN gave it a 9.7. Other critics are calling it the "best comic book movie ever made."

Looks like we have a winner here.

Read a slightly spolierish review over on TIME magazine that got me thinking this

Spoiler:
One typical average kid
Loves to read her comic strips
Wishing one day she'd reach eden
With big bad Wolverine
Big Bad Wolverine
Big Bad Wolverine

Logan has a 96% fresh rating after 56 reviews on rottentomatoes:

https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/logan_2017/

Logan really IS the "Citizen Kane" of superhero films. This is the happiest day of my life, a Fox X-men movie is going to go down in history as one of the best comic book or superhero movies of all time.

They will talk about this movie 20-30 years from now just like we still talk about Terminator, Star Wars, or Rocky.

What a time to be alive.

Cubed I think it is a bit early to say things like that.

He's just being a troll, don't pay him mind when he says crap like that.

It has a 96% fresh rating. What do you guys want?

People still talk about X-men 1 which came out nearly 17 years ago now. You think people won't talk about X-men films 20 years from now?

People still bring up Batman 1989 25 years later.

Marvel Studio Movies get high ratings on RT all the time...and yet I think most of their movies are kiddie-cutter dogs*it regardless of whether that's a popular opinion to have or not

Not everyone will be swayed by it. In fact I prefer reading the negative reviews like the ones I read about it from the NYTimes and GQ so I can keep my expectations in check.

So far the most negative review was from Time magazine from some female. Seems she didn't like the violence in the movie.

Well this is the most violent X-men movie with on-screen gore and it's rated R for a reason, and females are known to abhor violence. I mean she's the only negative review on rottentomatoes right now.

Was she commenting on the violence in general, or the fact that a little girl spent the whole movie stabbing people's brains out?

Here's the review:

http://time.com/4671852/logan-movie-review/

An excerpt:

Quote:
The violence in Logan is grisly and overbearing, just in case you’d otherwise failed to get the memo on its tone of unforgiving gloom. This picture is explicitly for adults: The MPAA has given it an R rating for violence, brief nudity, and curse words, the usual stuff the MPAA obsesses over. But there’s nothing exhilarating or pulpy about Logan. The picture is mostly tedious and unpleasant, which is a shame for the sake of the performers.
She also takes a jab at superhero films in general. What do you expect from someone with the name, "Stephanie Zacharek."

To quote Cure (with modification) about Cubed and The Lego Batman Movie as it applies here:

"I'm into this so I cannot fathom other people not being into it."

This is what happens when you grow up on media drowning in singular token female characters, you get troglodyte mouth-breathers insisting what one woman says is what all women say.

Caught the longer Logan trailer before John Wick Chapter 2, could NOT be more excited about this movie than I am.

(John Wick was good too, though I think I preferred the first one more.)

Hot damn, rottentomatoes is now a 97%

https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/logan_2017/

Is this one of the highest rated superhero/comic book movies of all time? I'm too lazy to check, what did the first two Nolan Batman films get on rottentomatoes?
