We’re continuing the theme of “rebirth” on the podcast as we revisit one of the more maligned films in the X-Men cinematic universe. X-Men Origins: Wolverine was supposed to set up a new branch of films exploring…well, the origins of the X-Men. But this one was panned by both critics and audiences, so Fox did a reset and gave us First Class after instead. However, if you haven’t revisited Origins in a while, it may be time to do so because this one is probably better than you remember (minus that entire third act.) So settle in to a nice adamantium bath and light up a cigar as we tear into the film, plus discuss such topics as the chokehold the Black Eyed Peas had on America in the aughts, how the X-Men could have prevented 9/11, the now decanonized Punch Dimension, and so much more with returning guest and X-Men “lover” John Houzer.
X-Men Origins: Wolverine stars Hugh Jackman, Ryan Reynolds, Liev Schreiber, Danny Huston, Lynn Collins, and will.i.am. Directed by Gavin Hood.
