MOVIE SPECIAL: Logan

Episode 54 - Logan Movie Review

There's been a great deal of talk on social media over the last few weeks about WHO has been spotted on the set of the Deadpool film which is currently in principal photography. Someone we've known for some time that would be joining the merc with a mouth in his 3rd go-around was revealed months ago in a video with Ryan Reynolds - and that's Hugh Jackman. For Jackman, he's reprising the role of the adamantium claw wielding Wolverine from the X-Men. So this week, Guest host Luke and I are going to spend some time looking back at what we thought was Jackman's last performance as the Wolverine - the 2017 film Logan.
