Logan

"Don’t be what they make you to be."Back-to-back Film Board weeks! We couldn’t let this one go by - Marvel comics movies are continuing to find their graphic stride this month with Logan and our thugs need to get in the fight and mix it up about the value of a hard “R” comic representation in the cinematic universe. It’s not spoilery to talk about the completely appropriate rating this movie drew, but in addition to that, we will spoil the story and theorize what it means for the Marvel mutants' present and future.We continue to keep our own lineup fresh on this show with Steve Sarmento, Pete Wright, Justin 'JJ' Jaeger, and another awesome appearance from special guest host Darnell Smith. Listening to this episode will help you decide whether you should get over your comic book movie apathy, embrace de-sensitization to knife (claw) gore, and/or slice your way to this movie before the Ides of March. If you don’t want to be thoroughly spoiled, come back and listen after you see it once your healing factor kicks in. When the movie ends, our conversation begins!Film SundriesPolygon: "Wolverine 3 officially called Logan, early script teases new character details"Original theatrical trailerOriginal poster artworkOriginal MaterialFlickchartLetterboxdComicBook.com Composite Rankings (Comic Book Movies)
