Some days ago I watched "Logan", the last movie with Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, and it put me in great spending mood, buying the figures for this movie. So my other Wolverine got to play a bit more! Today he is chopping wood.

Unbelievable! Obviously you can create every possible scene!

Thank you! Apparently I can ;)
I have never chopped firewood so please explain to me. What is the difference of standing on the other side? You mean, the log behind him?

Actually, it's not exactly chopping firewood. It's inspired by a scene from a movie. A tree laid across a street and people asked him for help, so he chopped the tree to make the street free. He wears his shirt in the movie but where is the fun in that? LOL

Here is a picture of the scene: http://i.imgur.com/uH0WAI4.jpg

Well, this is just a safety thing: When you want to chop on a log or to remove a branche from it, you always position your leggs on the other side (and this concerns also a chainsaw). If the tool goes wild, you just won´t unjure yourself. And believe me, it goes wild any time (see Sode´s Law). *Winks*

I too watched this movie back in Dec but I wasn't a fan...felt they didn't do justice to both Charles and Logan. They are buried in fields somewhere in basically unmarked graves. Annoyed me. Made me sad.

Yeah, I hear very divided opinions. But it seems a lot loved it for the same reasons than I did. I'm never really a fan of the Marvel movies - like Iron Man for example, or Avengers - where it's all only funny lines and action but not much substance. While this was a great character piece with two great actors, and the little girl was phenomenal. I went and bought right away every action figure that I could find. This rarely happens with me.

I guess it does not keep well with the continuity of the other movies so it's better to see it as a standalone piece. I can see how lifelong fans are annoyed at the way how the deaths were done, but then I also think that there is no good way to die in the X-men universe. For me it would have been boring if it would have been another going-out-in-glory-while-saving-the-world death. They are unreal. This one felt very real to me. I can connect to it better.

I have no problem with the acting...it was well acted or that it was a stand a lone but I just think that the deaths were unrealistic in that absolutely no one would care about these guys. It is true that there is not good way to die in the X-men universe still some respect for the characters would have been nice not necessarily a blaze of glory but more realistic to make their deaths worthy of what the characters had done in the past for mutants plus it would have added an element of light to an otherwise very dark plot.
