This week we head into the MVM archives to take you behind the scenes on the making of Wolverine’s last stand in the 2017 Logan movie! We’ll take you through all the Box Office numbers for every movie Wolverine has fronted, and then explore James Mangold’s process for creating one of the best Marvel movies of all time! We’ll look into Mangold’s influences, from classic Westerns like “Shane” to Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight Trilogy. We’ll explore Hugh Jackman’s decision to never play Wolverine ever again … and why that didn’t last long. We’ll also find out how and why the movie got an R rating, how it made history at the Academy Awards, and which classic villain was meant to play a big role before cut from the final draft of the screenplay!

Rob and Will take a deep-dive into what is easily the worst X-Men movie ever made, the 2019 Dark Phoenix! The 19 year Fox X-Men saga comes to a sad end as we explore the disastrous production process of this movie - from the plans to the executions, from the disagreements with the studio, to the painful test screenings, the re-writes and the re-shoots, all through to the god-awful reviews! We'll also go behind-the-page on the history of the Dark Phoenix comics, and what makes it the greatest Marvel story of all time! Then we take a deep-dive into the Dark Phoenix movie, pull it apart scene-by-scene, bring you all the obscure Marvel Connections, debate everything good and everything crappy about the film, see how it compares to X-Men Last Stand, bring you tons of X-Men history and trivia, and FINALLY decide on what is the WORST Marvel movie we've ever covered on the podcast!
