Kayla Silverfox: Do you know why the moon is so lonely?
Logan: Why?
Kayla Silverfox: Because she used to have a lover.
Logan: 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, this is a true story.
Kayla Silverfox: Mm-hm. And 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 in the sky and sees the Moon and howls her name. But... he can never touch her again.

Logan: Why?
Kayla Silverfox: Because she used to have a lover.

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.
Victor Creed: No.

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: 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!

Bartender: You're not from around here, are you?
Victor Creed: [carving a smiley face into the table] What gave me away?
Logan: [outside, having tracked Creed down] VICTOR!
Victor Creed: [to the bartender] You got insurance on this place?
Bartender: Insurance? No.
Victor Creed: Too bad...
[Logan crashes into the bar]
Victor Creed: Well, well, well. Look what the cat dragged in.
Bartender: Guys, whatever this is, take it outside.

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: It tickled.

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.
William Stryker: I tried to warn you.
Logan: Why didn't you tell me it was Victor?

William Stryker: [over the radio] Zero!

William Stryker: Zero, is he dead? Is Logan dead? Come in!
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: Logan, if you go down this path, you're not gonna like what you find.
Logan: You wanted the animal, Colonel. You got it.
David North: I'm down...
William Stryker: Zero, is he dead? Is Logan dead? Come in!

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.

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.
Logan: Hey, now, bub, you listen to me...
[Gambit hurls an energized card at Logan]
Logan: Victor Creed.
Remy LeBeau: [halts, looks at Logan] And who's that?

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.
Logan: I remember.

Chris Bradley: Victor...
Victor Creed: Can I come in?
Chris Bradley: [nervous] Yeah. Come on in.
Chris Bradley: You know, I've never said anything, to anyone, about what happened. I'm livin' a totally different life now, Victor. I always thought it would be Wade to come knocking on my door.
Victor Creed: Well, Wade's gone.
Chris Bradley: I'm not afraid of you. I'm afraid of dying.
Victor Creed: How do you know? You've never tried it before.
