With just one final Wolverine movie left, Hugh Jackman turned to social media to get some ideas on what to do with it. On Monday, he shared the following request on Twitter:
My last time putting on the claws. What do you want to see happen? 50 words or less. I'll read as many as I can. pic.twitter.com/ksA1Gii5tf

"The Wolverine," the last movie, portrayed a Japan that would feel familiar to fans of "The Barbarian and the Geisha," "You Only Live Twice," and "The Karate Kid, Part II". What would Soylent fans of Wolverine like to see?

Lots of gory, splatter-noise-filled action sequences of Wolverine tearing up people who REALLY deserve it. That'd make a good movie to me.

Can we please have less of that? Too much gore (Hollywood) desensitizes the movie watching people to death and they think its ok for someone to get killed. That is a dangerous thing to be promoting. In almost all cases it is NOT OK to kill people, and showing needless deaths over and over again serves no purpose than to propagate some propaganda.
sequences of Wolverine tearing up people who REALLY deserve it.
What kind of people would those be? People we hate? Invading Russians? Genetically modified soldiers?
Its not easy to come up with an enemy within a movie and then demonize them enough that they start deserving to die. There is some good in everyone, and if a character is developed enough, people will be able to relate to it and it will stop deserving to die. So Hollywood refuses to develop characters and instead relies on special effects and utterly forgettable action sequences... so people will come back for more utterly forgettable action sequences containing more gore next time.
So could we get a real story written by a Non-American who is not promoting the official party line? It does not need to contain any deaths.

Ooo, ooo, I know! Bankers. Wall Street bankers. Let them look down at their noses at Logan in a bar, throw $100 bills at him like they expect him to scrabble for them like the rest of the rabble in the place. Logan extends his claws into the guy's belly, says, "Let's find out what a tranche of you is worth, motherfucker!" and slices him like bread.
