Were you a touch disappointed by the The Wolverine? Don’t be. At least not yet, because it turns there a lot more of the movie than you got
to see. By all accounts, the Extended Edition is much, much better — and you can finally see it tomorrow.
• The
Wolverine: Extended Edition
Wolverine goes to Japan and gets his healing powers jacked.
Okay, so the Extended cut is apparently 12 minutes longer than the theatrical
version, and besides filling in a few things, it has CG blood for all the many, many slices
Wolverine makes with his claws and his sword, which would improve the movie on its own by about 40%.
I’ve linked to the version that gives you both the theatrical and extended cuts
on Blu-ray.
• X-Men:
The Adamantium Collection
Or you could get this big-ass box set containing all three
original X-Men movies, both Wolverine movies, X-Men: First Class, a bonus disc
with a new documentary on the movie franchise, with special Wolverine claw
packaging. It even has an extra slot that you can put your inevitable copy of Days of
Future Past in.
• The
Mortal Instruments: City of Bones
Was this movie in theaters like three weeks ago? A teenager
learns she’s a half-angel demon hunter, which is cool because many of the other
half-angel demon hunters she meets are young male models.
• Transformers
Prime: Beast Hunters – Season Three
With Optimus Prime damaged, the Autobots face their biggest

living on a research lab on Staurn and having sex, whose idyll is disturbed when
crazy Harvey Keitel and his even crazier robot come to “help.”

anime-ish anime series I’ve even heard of.
