Wolverines how apt as the film was filmed in Michigan. ( I saw the original movie and if I remember right they too called themselves wolverines) - because they hide undergound and strike and move hide undergorund and strike again. Michigan taxpayers contributed 14 million dollars on this film.

i believe in the original they called themselves the wolverines because that was the name of their football team. they were kids after all.

**********************
On an earlier FR posting (maybe Wednesday), it was reported that the film makers and actors spent $44M+ in MI and were then given back something like $16M. Net gain to MI for giving the film makers the enticement to film there.
