Same as the Xmen films although it's looking like they retconned Sabretooth.
Ive got all these on VHS. About 16 or so tapes I reckon. I should sell them before word gets out about the DVD release....In more related news, the original cartoon is being released on dvd (FINALLY!!! ) This cartoon was brilliant!!!

I've heard it's in the same continuity as the X-Men movies but is like prequel or something, explaining Wolverine's origins.
SNIKT-SNIKT!!
Didn't Wolverine live in feudal Japan at one stage? I'd love to see that in the movie.

From what I know, he is incredibly old due the his healing ability.Wolverine's apparently a fully fledged Samurai although I don't know how that works. Must be similar to how Tom cruise was the last Samurai......
He is known to have fought alongside Captain America in WWII.
He was in Japan at one point and if I remember correctly, he did train in a village for people who had been turned into human weapons. He had a wife and kid and everything.
But during his final test where he had to not defend himself from some attackers something happened, like an explosion on a near by mountain or something (I read this a long time ago) and he unsheathed his claws, failing the test.
Bucky had something to do with it I think.
Can't remember, only read it once, and I was pressed for time.
That trailer looks good anyway. I'm certainly up for it.

It's pretty good, I've seen the first dozen or so episodes, animation is reminiscent of the Spectacular Spiderman (which is on Saturdays before Tf:Animated.) Season 2 has just started airing in the US.
And of course the 90's cartoon version of Xmen had to go and be released, I just went and 'researched' it over the weekend.

I have been watching Wolverine and The X-Men and it is indeed surprisingly good. Not as good as 90s X-men because this time things such as discrimination and public violence against 'racial' groups is much more toned down due to modern sensibilities but the stories are still well written. Bob Forward from Beast Wars also wrote a few episodes.It's pretty good, I've seen the first dozen or so episodes, animation is reminiscent of the Spectacular Spiderman (which is on Saturdays before Tf:Animated.)

I have seen all the episodes released so far (16). They are still in Season 1 not 2.

Slightly off-topic, but I interpreted the other guy (name has been forgotten for now) as the last Samurai, Not Tom. Thats how I managed to get through that one.
