1) Keep The Action Grounded
If you think of the great action moments featuring Wolverine, you probably think of the rawer stuff. The bar fight in X-Men, plunging his claws into an enemy’s chest in X2, clinging to dear life as he brawls atop a speeding bullet train in The Wolverine. Logan is no doubt a superhuman character, but he’s at his best when he finds himself reacting as scrappily and desperately as any regular person would.
Any action involving Wolverine has always been more compelling when it’s been grounded. Compare his brutish, mano-e-mano fight with Lady Deathstrike in X2 to his green-screen heavy battle with a laser-eyed Deadpool in Origins. Wolverine’s a very physical character – it makes more sense for him to be fighting rough-and-ready like a brawler than for him to be acting like just any old superpowered mutant.
