So Wolverine at the end of the film wouldn't remember anything that happened to him (and his body) between 1973 and the present in the new timeline which he created, right? He would just remember his original timeline, plus the stuff that we see him do in the film.

You see that in the film, where he meets some characters he previously knew but didn't expect to see. But we don't see the other side of this: there are surely characters in the new timeline that Wolverine is very close to that he will have no memory of. I guess that sucks for those characters.




>I guess that sucks for those characters.

Wolverine's return to the new future essentially kills off the one that had been living in that timeline since 1973 and nobody cares.


But, there's a nice narrative symmetry because he had missing memories when he was first introduced way back in X-Men.


Right, but I'm talking about characters in the new timeline that met Wolverine after 1973.
