Hugh Jackman Kept Accidentally Spiking His Nuts As Wolverine (Karl's Corner: Real Steel)

Wolverine, in the comics, is a mutant with the power to heal from any injury. Hugh Jackman, unfortunately, does not have this power which is unfortunate for him as, on numerous occasions, he stabbed himself in sensitive areas with his own claws.

[@Sonicfan1661]

Honestly the bit about him not having his wishes to have the set closed just set a dangerous precedent that continually gets reinforced in today's society, one that means that men don't deserve to have their wishes respected in regard to their bodies. If you reversed the genders and did that shit to an actress you'd lose your job the second the story came out. Men deserve to have the same respect in regard to their bodies as women, period. I don't care if it's a prank, he asked for the set to be limited to only the necessary crew, and they went against that in a way that if it were to an actress would end very differently. Sexism against men is wrong, as is sexism against women. It's not reverse sexism either, it's sexism, plain and simple. Men don't deserve to be objectified as equally as women don't. Why are these such hard concepts? Holy shit.

[@daltonmoen1404]

Real Steel is amazing and one of his best movies, but I’d say his best movies are Logan and Prisoners. I’m not the biggest X-Men fan but I do enjoy some of the stories and movies and the 90s cartoon, minus Origins. I really only cared for the movies because of Hugh, Patrick Stewart and Ian Mckellan, that’s one of the reasons I loved Logan so much. It was the swan song for 2 of my favorite characters in X-Men and it did exactly what I wanted. It was the most well acted comic book movie aside from Dark Knight (Also I’d argue both are the only comic movies that deserved acting and best picture oscars) Also it has some of the best Action out of the entire franchise (Until Deadpool 2). It finally showed the horrifically brutal feral side of Logan, the one I’d always wanted to see since the 90s cartoon introduced me to the X-Men. It’s also the only comic book movie that made me leave the theater balling and had me balling the whole 20 minute drive home. It’s honestly my favorite comic book/movie in general. I can’t praise Logan enough.
