William Stryker : You know, I'm not proud about the way things ended between us.
Logan : Conversation's over.
[bumps past Stryker]
William Stryker : Playing Little House on the Prairie with a... schoolteacher, I mean, that just isn't *you,* Logan.
Logan : [turns around] And you would know, huh?
William Stryker : I would.
Logan : What do you want, Stryker?
[Stryker shows Logan the front page of a newspaper with Bradley's picture on it; the title says, "Circus Freak Killed"]
William Stryker : Bradley was killed three days ago.
[Logan stares at the paper]
William Stryker : Wade before that. I believe that someone is hunting down our old team.
Logan : [looks up at Stryker] Anyone else?
William Stryker : As far as I know, Victor is safe. But whoever it is has names, addresses.
Logan : I can take care of myself.
[gets into his truck]
William Stryker : This is not about you, Logan.
[walks up to the driver's side and looks in the window]
William Stryker : Your country needs you.
Logan : I'm Canadian.
[drives away]
William Stryker : I know you, Logan! I know who you *are*!
-
Wade Wilson : Great. Stuck in an elevator with five guys on a high-protein diet.
William Stryker : Oh, Wade.
Wade Wilson : Dreams really do come true.
William Stryker : Just shut it! You're up next.
Wade Wilson : Thank you, sir. You look really nice today. It's the green. It brings out the seriousness in your eyes.
Logan : Oh, my God. Do you ever shut up, pal?
Wade Wilson : No. Not when I'm awake.
-
Wade Wilson : I love this weapon more than any other thing in the whole wide world, and you wanna know why?
Victor Creed : No.
Wade Wilson : It's memorable. Sure it's a little bulky, tough to get on a plane. You whip out a couple of swords at your ex-girlfriend's wedding, they will never, ever forget it.
Victor Creed : That's funny Wade, but I've think you've mistaken me with someone who gives a shit.
Wade Wilson : Granted, it's probably not as intimidating as having a gun, or bone-claws, or the fingernails of a bag-lady...
[Victor draws his claws, Wilson draws his blades]
Wade Wilson : Manicure?
Logan : [to Victor] Easy.
-
Logan : Are you Remy LeBeau?
Remy LeBeau : Do I owe you money?
Logan : No.
Remy LeBeau : Then Remy LeBeau, I am.

[Logan reveals his Adamantium claws]
Victor Creed : Ooh, shiny!
[Logan growls]
Victor Creed : Tell me something, Jimmy. Do you even *know* how to kill me?
Logan : I'm gonna cut your goddamned head off. See if *that* works.
[Victor laughs and they charge at each other]
-
Kayla Silverfox : Why is the moon so lonely?
Logan : Why?
Kayla Silverfox : Because she used to have a lover.
Logan : Oh. You tell this to the kids?
Kayla Silverfox : No.
[Logan laughs]
Kayla Silverfox : His name was Kuekuatsu and they lived in the Spirit World together.
Logan : Oh, it's a *true* story? OK.
[sips his beer]
Kayla Silverfox : Every night, they would wander the skies together, but... one of the other spirits was jealous. Trickster wanted the moon for himself, so he told Kuekuatsu that the moon had asked for flowers. He told him to come to our world and pick her some wild roses, but Kuekuatsu didn't know that once you leave the Spirit World, you can never go back. And every night, he looks up at the sky, sees the moon and *howls* her name. But... he can never touch her again.
Logan : Wow. Koo-koo-ka-choo got screwed.
Kayla Silverfox : Kuekuatsu.
[Logan chuckles and she caresses his chin]
Kayla Silverfox : It means "the Wolverine."

[Creed has a drink in a bar after killing Kayla whilst carving a smiley face into the table]
Bartender : You're not from around here, are you?
Victor Creed : [looks at the bartender and chuckles] What gave me away?
[bartender shrugs]
Logan : [outside, having tracked Creed down] Victor!
Victor Creed : [to the bartender] You got insurance on this place?
Bartender : Insurance? No.
Victor Creed : [shrugs] Too bad.
Logan : *Victor*!
[bursts into the bar]
Victor Creed : Well, well, well. Look what the cat dragged in.
Bartender : Guys, whatever this is, take it outside.
[Logan extends his bone claws; everyone hurrys out of the bar; Victor smirks]
Logan : Why?
Victor Creed : Why?
[laughs and stands up]
Victor Creed : You don't call. You don't write. How *else* am I supposed to get your attention?
[extends his claws; they charge at each other]
-
William Stryker : I have a job for you.
Logan : I already have a job.
David North : Lumberjack? Eighteen grand a year?
Logan : Eighteen five. Plus I haven't had to kill anybody.
David North : Miss it?
Logan : Right about now I am.
David North : Yeah?
William Stryker : Zero, back to the car.
Logan : [nods to the car as Zero keeps looking at him] Atta boy.
[clicks tongue. Zero goes to the car]
-
Logan : [holding Stryker in a chokehold to the wall] For six years I've been here, no one knew me. And then you show up, and the next day she's dead!
William Stryker : I tried to warn you.
Logan : Why didn't you tell me it was Victor?
William Stryker : I didn't know!
Logan : [slams him against the wall] Bullshit! Why?
William Stryker : I swear on my son's life, I didn't!
[Logan releases his grip on him]
William Stryker : Victor's appetite was becoming too public. I had to lock him up. He felt I betrayed him. He went AWOL. He said he was coming for all of us.
Logan : You didn't come to warn me, you came to save your own ass.
[walks off]
William Stryker : So what's your plan, Captain? You can't beat him, Logan, you know you can't!
Logan : I'm gonna go find him and kill him.
William Stryker : I can give you the tools to defeat him.
[Logan stops and turns to look at Stryker]
William Stryker : And we can still save the others.
Logan : You mean save yourself, right?
William Stryker : I promise you two things: You will suffer more pain than any other man can endure. But you will have your revenge.
Logan : I come with you, I'm coming for blood. No law, no code of conduct. You point me in the right direction, you get the hell out of my way.
-
Logan : This doesn't change anything between us. We're done.
Victor Creed : We could never be done, James. After all, we're brothers. And brothers look out for each other.
-
William Stryker : [over the helicopter radio] Zero, is Logan dead?
Agent Zero : [shaken] I don't know. I'm down.
William Stryker : Zero, is he dead? Is Logan dead?
[Logan approaches the wreck and glares at Zero, who is trapped in the cockpit next to the dead pilot]
William Stryker : Zero, come *in*!
[Logan reaches over and takes Zero's headphones]
Logan : [speaking into the headphones] You tried to kill me.
William Stryker : Logan?
Logan : Where's Victor?
William Stryker : Come back to base. I'll explain everything. We'll take down Victor together.
Logan : Wrong answer. After I kill Victor, I'm coming for you.
William Stryker : [sits down nervously] Logan, listen to me. If you go down this road, you're not gonna like what you find.
Logan : You wanted the animal, Colonel. You got it.
[hangs up on Stryker and glares at Zero]
Logan : Those were good people back there. Innocent people.
[Zero chuckles weakly as Logan turns and walks away from the wreckage]
Agent Zero : It's funny how good, innocent people tend to die around you!
[Logan extends his Adamantium claws and strikes the ground, igniting a trail of petrol, destroying the wreckage and killing Zero]
-
Logan : [upon seeing the obese Fred] Fred Dukes? That looks like the creature that ate Fred Dukes.
John Wraith : Hey, be nice, man.
Logan : [looks at Fred's tattoo] Hey, fat... Fred. I seem to remember that girl when was about 85 pounds, huh?
Frederick J. Dukes : Oh, that's funny. You're still so funny, Logan.
Logan : You know where Victor is?
Frederick J. Dukes : No idea.
Logan : Where's the island, slim?
Frederick J. Dukes : Don't let the door hit you on the way out, Logan.
Logan : [gets into the ring] Listen, I ain't leaving here till you tell me where Victor is. So come on, bub, for old times' sake, huh?
Frederick J. Dukes : Did you just call me... Blob?
Logan : No, but...
[Fred cold cocks him by knocking him out of the ring]
John Wraith : I told you not to mention his weight. Why'd you call him Blob?
Logan : I didn't call him Blob, I said bub! God damn it!
-
William Stryker : We're going to make you indestructible - but first, we're gonna have to destroy you. You remember what we were looking for in Africa?
Logan : I remember.
William Stryker : Well, I found it. It helped us to create a metal compound so strong, that you'll be able to withstand virtually anything. It's called adamantium. I can't put Victor down myself, Logan. To kill him, you'll have to embrace the other side, become the animal.
Logan : Let's do this.
William Stryker : Oh, I almost forgot...
[hold up Logan's dog tags]
Logan : I want new ones.
William Stryker : What do you want them to say?
Logan : Wolverine.
-
Wade Wilson : Fred got a new tattoo. I'm concerned.
Logan : [looks at Fred's tattoo of a woman] Jesus, Fred, you just met her last night.
Frederick J. Dukes : I love her.
Logan : You love her? After one night?
Frederick J. Dukes : She's a gymnast.
-
Remy LeBeau : When you said you were going to kill him, I thought you were exaggerating.
Logan : Do I look like a man who exaggerates?
-
Logan : [to Agent Zero] Still shootin' first, askin' questions later?
David North : [shoots Wolverine's cigar to pieces] Still smoking cheap cigars?
-
Remy LeBeau : You don't like flying, huh?
Logan : I'm fine. Just concentrate on what you're doing.
Remy LeBeau : You sure? You got a bit of sweat on your brow there.
Logan : Very funny. Just keep your eyes on the...
Remy LeBeau : On the what? The clouds? Keep my eyes on the clouds?
Logan : You're going up and down like a freaking yo-yo here! Where'd you get this thing, anyway?
Remy LeBeau : Oh, this is my baby. I won here in a game. Jacks over fives.
Logan : Great.
Remy LeBeau : Relax. We're almost there.
[they arrive at the island]
Remy LeBeau : There it is. The island. Three Mile Island. Hiding in plain sight. No one's gonna snoop around a nuclear reactor. They think it's gonna turn them into freaks.
Logan : Like you?
-
Frederick J. Dukes : You gonna puke?
Logan : If we were meant to fly, we'd grow wings.
David North : Aww, don't worry Nancy, more people die from driving than flying.
Logan : Yeah? How 'bout impaling?
John Wraith : Hey be nice! Or be your approximation of nice... would you like a bucket?
-
[from trailer]
Logan : I'm the best there is at what I do, and what I do best isn't very nice. I'm the Wolverine.
-
Travis Hudson : Sleep OK?
Logan : Uh, yeah.
Travis Hudson : You look like a man fixing to do a bad thing. You know what happens to men who go looking for blood?
Logan : What?
Travis Hudson : They find it.
[Logan eyes him, frowning]
Travis Hudson : We all got a choice, son.
Logan : Yeah, mine got taken.
Travis Hudson : Bullshit.
[they study one another; Travis carries a leather jacket]
Travis Hudson : This was my son's jacket.
[throws it to Logan, who catches it]
Travis Hudson : Try it on.
[Logan does so; the jacket is dark brown with yellow bands on the sleeves and a yellow panel at the bottom on the back; Logan examines the jacket, which is a perfect fit]
Logan : Thank you.
Travis Hudson : Yep. Wanna... take my bike for a spin? Test the suspension?
Logan : '64, huh?
[as Logan sits down, the bike sinks down and creeks dramatically]
Travis Hudson : Man, you're heavy.
Logan : Yeah, I put on a little weight recently.
-
Logan : My whole life I felt like an animal. Then she came along.
-
Remy LeBeau : Large ones a hundred, and small ones a fifty. May I deal you any?
Logan : Well, what do I get for seventeen bucks?
Remy LeBeau : [laughs] Seventeen dollars? A cab ride home, perhaps.
-
[before the adamantium bonding commences]
Dr. Carol Frost : [to Logan] When it starts, whatever the reason is that you're doing this, focus on that. Maybe it will help.
Logan : Trust me, I've been through worse.
Dr. Carol Frost : No you haven't.
-
Victor Creed : When are you gonna figure it out? We're not like them!
Logan : I am NOTHING like you.
Victor Creed : Sure you are. You just don't know it yet.
-
William Stryker : You were sentenced for decapitating a senior officer. The warden tells me that your sentence was carried out by a firing squad at 1000 hours. How'd that go?
Logan : It tickled.
William Stryker : My name is Major William Stryker. You boys tired of running? Tired of denying your true nature? Tired of wars?
Victor Creed : Why do you care?
William Stryker : Oh, I care. I care because I know how valuable you are. I'm putting together a special team, with special privileges. So tell me, after defending this country for 150 years and 4 wars, how would you like to really serve your country?
William Stryker : Welcome to the war.
-
Logan : [wearing boxing gloves] This is your idea of an idea?
John Wraith : Trying to help you out, Logan. Dukes don't like you that much and you know it.
Logan : Feeling's mutual.
John Wraith : Then use those gloves, man. Dance with him a little bit, allow him to let his anger out on you. I figured if you'd do that he'd probably tell you everything you wanna know.
Logan : Come on, man, look at him. Got a big old ass coming out the front of his shirt. Jesus. He's gonna have a coronary for Christ's sake. Is there even a stretcher big enough to take this guy out of here?
[Wolverine gets pummeled]
John Wraith : It ain't him I'm worried about getting out of here on a stretcher.
Logan : [grunts with pain] You're an asshole.
-
[from trailer]
Logan : We didn't sign up for this.
Victor Creed : Who do you think you are? This is what we do!
Logan : I'm done.
Victor Creed : We can't just let you walk away!
[Logan rips off his dog tags and walks away]
Victor Creed : Jimmy!
-
Logan : [as he's fighting Gambit] Well, that's a nice stick.
[cuts Gambit's bo staff in half]
-
[to Zero, who shot the Hudsons]
Logan : Those were good people back there. Innocent people.
[walks off]
David North : [laughs] It's funny how innocent people tend to die around you!
[Wolverine stops, and uses his claws to ignite gasoline and blow up Zero's copter]
-
John Wraith : Move his ass. Dance with him, Fred!
Frederick J. Dukes : Oh, what's that? You wanna dance with me?
[Logan punches Dukes repeatedly]
Frederick J. Dukes : That feels good. Hey! Guess what?
[Dukes punches Logan once, and decks him]
John Wraith : Oh, is he gonna talk now! You got him right where you want him!
Logan : Whose side are you on, anyway?
-
Remy LeBeau : [dealing] So what brings you to our fair city, sir?
Logan : Victor Creed.
Remy LeBeau : [halts, looks at Logan] And who's that?
Logan : He's the man I'm gonna kill. You see, he works with a man named Stryker on an island. Just need to know where it is.
Remy LeBeau : And why would you think I know that?
Logan : Well, 'cause I know who you are, Gambit. You're the guy who escaped and you're the guy who's gonna take me back there.
Remy LeBeau : [stares at Logan's dog tags] Those are mighty nice tags you have there, sir. The men who took me had tags just like 'em.
[his eyes and fingertips glow red]
Logan : Hey, now, bub, you listen to me...
[Gambit hurls an energized card at Logan]
-
Logan : I thought you were the Moon and I was your Wolverine. Turns out you're the Trickster, and I'm just the fool who got played.
-
John Wraith : I'm coming with you, Logan!
Logan : There's no redemption where I'm going, John.
John Wraith : I ain't asking for it!
-
[from trailer]
Logan : In my whole life, I felt like an animal. I ignored my instincts, and I ignored what I really am. And that won't ever happen again.
-
[Logan climbs up to the top of a cooling tower at Three Mile Island]
Logan : Let's see you dance up here.
[Weapon XI teleports up to Logan and they fight]
-
Logan : [to Victor] Back to back!

[Logan rides a motorbike through the night towards the lights of Las Vegas; meets up with John in the cactus-filled office of his boxing gym called Spectre]
John Wraith : You sure it was Victor?
[tosses Logan a beer]
Logan : Yeah.
[opens his beer and drinks]
John Wraith : [sits down at his desk] Damn. I'm sorry, man.
Logan : [walks to the office window] What the hell happened to him after I left?
John Wraith : He got worse. He felt like you abandoned him. Hell, we *all* did. But Victor, he had to prove he was better than you. Huntin' and killin' everything he was pointed at.
[looks down]
John Wraith : Quit a few months later myself. Couldn't take roundin' 'em up.
[sips his beer]
Logan : Rounding who up?
John Wraith : Leave it alone.
Logan : Rounding *who* up, John?
[John stands up and turns his back]
Logan : Hey! Damn it, John!
John Wraith : [looks at Logan with disgust] We hunted our own kind, Logan! There's a special place in Hell for the things we did.
Logan : Mutants?
[John shakes his head]
Logan : Why?
John Wraith : Stryker said we'd be makin' a difference, protectin' people from the bad ones.
[looks earnestly at Logan; they sit down]
John Wraith : How you gonna take Victor down, Logan?
Logan : Remember that stuff in Africa?
John Wraith : Yeah, I remember Africa. What about it?
[Logan extends his Adamantium claws]
John Wraith : Damn.
[Logan retracts his claws]
John Wraith : What'd they do to you, man?
Logan : Don't ask.
[pauses]
Logan : Listen, Zero said something about an island. Does that mean anything to you?
John Wraith : Nope, but maybe Dukes knows. Him and Zero were real tight.
Logan : Fred Dukes? Where is he?
John Wraith : He's here.
Logan : [stands up] Well, let's go talk to him.
John Wraith : [stands up with an open palm] Hold on. He don't get in till around four, but I gotta warn you.
[takes a beer out of the fridge]
John Wraith : He developed a bit of eatin' disorder.
[opens his beer]
John Wraith : We all got our copin' mechanisms. I'm tryin' to whup him back into shape. Whatever you do, don't mention his weight.

William Stryker : We're gonna make you indestructible, but first we're gonna have to destroy you. You remember what we were looking for in Africa?
Logan : I remember.
William Stryker : Well, I found it. It helped us create a metal compound so strong, that you'll be able to withstand virtually anything. It's called Adamantium. I can't put Victor down myself, Logan. To kill him, you're gonna have to embrace the other side... become the animal.
Logan : Let's do this.
William Stryker : I almost forgot.
[holds up Logan's dog tags]
Logan : I want new ones.
William Stryker : What do you want them to say?
Logan : Wolverine.
