Yes.

William Stryker, a good old fashioned American military hero, could of course not commit war crimes on an american citizen. But on the other hand, Wolverine should be white. And thus he was made Canadian *nods*


This makes sense.

The original production was in the days of video tape. It's got to be out there somewhere.

There's a chance of a pirated movie on YouTube, so I wouldn't rule it out.

Or else, check DailyMotion

If it's old enough that no one cares about the copyright, you can probably find it on YT.

Is there like a website where you can download and save movies regardless of its fame or age?
