10 Huge Changes Old Man Logan Needs To Be Wolverine 3

9. Rewrite All The Easter Eggs

In the comics, there€™s not shortage of knowing nods and winks as Logan and Clint travel across the barren remains of the world. Again, due to the cinematic rights to characters being as they are, many of these would need to be changed in order to translate Old Man Logan to the big screen. At one point, they drive past the rotting corpse of Giant-Man (a humungous version of Ant-Man, who€™s rights are at Marvel). Perhaps Fox could swap in the Blob or another massive mutant. At another stage, they€™re chased by a dinosaur that has been possessed by the Venom symbiote (part of Sony€™s Spider-Man package, cinematically). Maybe this action sequence could be replaced with a giant mutated monster of some other kind. Later on, Logan encounters Captain America€™s shield and Iron Man€™s armour. These would need to go, too, but there€™s no shortage of artefacts that Fox do have the rights to that could take their place instead. Remnants of deceased X-Men€™s costumes, for instance, or perhaps some ancient evidence of Apocalypse€™s evildoing. This world needs to feel like it was once lived in, so Fox will need to dig out some old props and characters to get that across via Easter Eggs.
