#LOGAN vs Longan & 'His Time Has Come' TV Spot

LOGAN vs Longan

No it doesn’t have to mean anything besides: “BWAHAHAHAHAHA!” (Pic from Alfred Sim). Scroll down for an explanation of WHAT a “Longan” is, followed by the 'His Time Has Come' TV Spot … because it’s not all about “fruits” :)

"Dimocarpus longan, commonly known as the longan (UK: /ˈlɒŋɡən/; US: /ˈlɑːŋɡən/, /ˈlɔːŋɡən/), is a tropical tree that produces edible fruit. It is one of the better-known tropical members of the soapberry family (Sapindaceae), to which the lychee also belongs. Included in the soapberry family are the lychee, rambutan, guarani, koran, pitomba, Spanish lime and ackee. Longan is commonly associated with lychee, which is similar in structure but more aromatic in taste. It is native to Southern Asia." (Wiki)

"Logan is an upcoming American superhero film featuring the Marvel Comics character Wolverine distributed by 20th Century Fox. It is intended to be the tenth installment in the X-Men film series, as well as the third and final Wolverine solo film following X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009) and The Wolverine (2013). The film takes inspiration from Old Man Logan by Mark Millar and Steve McNiven, which follows a past-his-prime Logan undertaking a final adventure in the post-apocalyptic future. (Wiki)

“LOGAN” fanart by Rudy Ao

Rudy Ao LOGAN

From artist/illustrator Rudy Ao (www.aoillustration.com / DeviantART) comes this oil painting (sized 11 x 17 inch) titled “OLD MAN LOGAN” - based on the image of LOGAN the movie from the earlier days of promotions. Folks interested are to message him direct at “rudynurdiawa@gmail.com”.

“Laura’s Origin” Clip from LOGAN


Here’s a peek at “Laura”; the lil’girl who would be “X-23” in the upcoming feature film “LOGAN”. In the comicbooks, she is a clone of “Wolverine”, and possibly the celluloid-connection here may have been in “X-Men Apocalypse”, where “Logan” was seen mid-way into the film - escaping his capturers - leading to the end of the film, when “blood samples” of Wolverine/“Weapon X” were taken away in a briefcase with the “Essex Corp” logo - which essentially points to “Nathaniel Essex” AKA “Mr. Sinister” in the comicbooks.

All this makes much more sense now, with the faux pixalized video capture of Laura’s “Origin”, still a “speculation” of course, but a slightly more concrete one :)

Laura Origin 3 in Logan

The image of “Laura” shown cutting herself, might well be more evocative than this video clip altogether as it speaks more of “self-multilation” of a pre-teen, and not something readily show on the silver screen in big budget Hollywood flicks … and in this R-Rated film about fictionalised “superheroes with super-powers”, it shows them to be as “vulnerable” as non-mutant human beings, someone folks - “victims” and their families - can relate to.

*Mind you, it has not be mentioned if this specific clip is to be seen in the film LOGAN itself, as opposed to it being a “viral clip”, but let’s just assume this’ll be, shall we? “Flashback” sequence, of course :)

IMAX Poster for LOGAN

“Sunseeker” from #LOGAN

"In the near future, a weary Logan cares for an ailing Professor X in a hideout on the Mexican border. But Logan's attempts to hide from the world and his legacy are up-ended when a young mutant arrives, being pursued by dark forces. "
”Wolverine” aka LOGAN aka “James Howlett” (played by Hugh Jackman) heard on the phone, leaving a message with the intention to purchase a boat, the “Sunseeker” .. and you have a clearer idea of what state LOGAN is in, in the movie, driven by tireless demons on his tired mutant body, driving around folks in his stretch limousine … becoming a down-and-out tale of a mutant I’d love to catch in the theatres, for when it premieres March the 3rd, 2017, in the USA.

Is this an actual clip from the movie? Or just a standalone promotional spot?

About That X-Men Comicbook Seen in “LOGAN”


Remember the “X-Men” comicbook LOGAN was holding in his hands, flipping thru some pages in the recent trailer? They were drawn by Marvel Entertainment CCO Joe Quesada! Check out the uncoloured and coloured pages featured here, and see the pencils on his tumblr!
"It was a blast working closely with James Mangold on creating these pages (yes, there’s more than one) and thrilled to have been invited on the project. Attached are my final digital pencils that Dan Panosian had to recreate in a more 90s ink and coloring style and boy did he nail the look!" - shared Joe Quesada.

2nd Trailer for LOGAN Amps Up The Action, Bloodshed & Cussing FTW!

"In the near future, a weary Logan cares for an ailing Professor X in a hide out on the Mexican border. But Logan's attempts to hide from the world and his legacy are up-ended when a young mutant arrives, being pursued by dark forces." (IMDb)

The latest trailer for LOGAN has dropped, and has immediately converted me into a fan, and I cannot wait for this film to premiere March 3rd in the USA, March 2nd, 2017 in Singapore.

While the earlier trailer and scenes provided a somewhat dismally slow and unadventurous moodbrood, the latest turn of visual events sees a whole lot more bloodshed, and a decent amount of cussing defits a movie about a berserker (or in this case, a former berserker), AND that scene with the X-Men comicbooks? BRILL.

Logan - Official Trailer(s) & Teaser Poster

WIKI PLOT: "One year after the events of X-Men: Days of Future Past, Logan has aged over the years making the promise not to use his claws for bloody purposes, with his healing factor weakened. When an evil organization lead by Nathaniel Essex tries to use the rest of the remaining mutants in the world, turning them into weapons, Logan will need to become the Wolverine one more time." (Wiki)

IMDb PLOT: ”Set in the future of 2024, Logan and Professor Charles Xavier must cope with the loss of the X-Men when a corporation lead by Nathaniel Essex is destroying the world leaving it to destruction, with Logan's healing abilities slowly fading away and Xavier's Alzheimer's forcing him to forget. Logan must defeat Nathaniel Essex with the help of a young girl named Laura Kinney, a female clone of Wolverine.” (IMDb)

Logan” is the third and final standalone Wolverine feature film, with actor Hugh Jackman revising his role as mutant, this time looking a hella old and battered, and alongside him is “Professor Xavier” (played by Patrick Stewart) - also looking highly ancient … and with him is whom we know to be “Laura Kinney” AKA “X-23” (played by Dafne Keen), who in comicbooks is a clone of Wolverine. Being surrounded by “Reavers”, he looks to be in the fight of his life …

Directed by James Mangold, LOGAN premieres March 3rd, 2017 in the U.S. Scroll down for the RED BAND Trailer!
