Summary

“A bridge to nowhere, mon frère. Au revoir!” James, Karl, Leah, and Tony go on an intrepid adventure through the Angolan jungle and Canadian Rockies hot on the trail of everyone’s favourite Canadian can opener.It’s not often that a movie tie-in outshines its movie, but back in 2009 Raven Software seemed to achieve that with X-Men Origins: Wolverine.

0:00.0	The Hello and welcome everyone to the Kane Rinse podcast.
0:32.4	This is Volume 13 Issue 60012 on X-Men Origins Wolverine.
0:40.1	I'm James Carter.
0:41.6	Joining me in this issue, we have Tony Atkins.
0:44.5	Hello.
0:46.1	Leah Hey-Doo.

1:56.4	game, we'll find out whether they've played it before in a sec.
2:06.4	My history with this and the reason that I chose it is I played this in 2010 in January,
2:10.7	so not write a release, not I'd seen the film in cinemas when it came out.
2:16.0	So months after that, but, you know, fairly close to release on the Xbox 360 over the course of a couple of weeks
