Wolverine

[Rukas]

I guess with the news that they are sending out a casting call for this; its official and it deserves a thread.

No director attached; who would you like to see?

Personally, Id love to see Tony Scott direct this with his gritty style for a brooding Logan. Think Logan in Man On Fire.

[bigred760]

Wolverine is definitely one of the coolest comic book characters ever (if not the) and is most worthy of his own movie. This guy put Hugh Jackman on the map and I'm glad that he continues to want to play the character, even though it might typecast him. I'm excited about the possibilities for this flick.

[DareDevil]

ANYONE NEXT TO BRET RATNER!!!

For some reason yesterday while I was watching the trailer for Live Free or Die Hard I thought Len Wiseman could maybe be a good choice for Wolverine, just because it seems really realistic (shooting DH4 for Fox in Vancouver), I would love to Singer return but slim chance of that happening, If I could have a dream director take on this project I would have to say David Fincher.

[Tyler_Durden_208]

Which part of DH4 seems realistic to you? The car doing barrel rolls through the air or McClane jumping off that jet? :p

[Danger^Cart]

If this film gets a competent director and a hard-R, I'll be over-fucking-whelmed with excitement.

Brett Rattner and a PG13? I'll be about as interested in seeing this film as Tarantino is coming up with his own material.

[castlesave]

which would you prefer...

a continuation where the last x-men left off?

or

an origin story>

[Ender]

When they announced this project three years ago I was mainly excited because it might mean we would get a seperate X-Men movie without Wolverine taking up the entire spotlight. Sadly, that's now probably a non-possibility. Let me just say this: PLEASE let them finally bring back Sabertooth for this flick. I'm sorry, but asking us to believe that he was killed by a piddling fall off of the Statue of Liberty is horseshit, that guy falls farther than that to get out of bed in the morning.

Looks like thats what we're getting though..........

[DarkKnight81]

I don't care who's directing this, as long as Hugh Jackman is onboard I'm all for it. My only other request is give Sabretooth more respect than he got in X1.

I agree. He should definitely be a big part of the story - especially if it deals in the Weapon program. I wouldn't mind to see Tyler Mane back as long as he's taken a few more acting lessons since X-Men.

[DareDevil]

I read in an intreview with Tyler Mane that he was going to come back for the Wolverine movie, but that was quite some time ago...?

And you really believed it. It will probably be a hrd pg-13, but not R.

[Danger^Cart]

Unless Hugh Jackman has unprecedented creative control, I seriously doubt we'll get a hard-R, and even then, I'm not sure he has the cajones to follow through with such a risky venture.

Yeah, I think all the hardcore Wolvie fans are pretty my fucked on this one.

It'll be PG-13 without question but that's fine with me. Wolverine carving up those mansion intruders and those mutants in the forest proves that PG-13 can work for Logan.

I guess I'm in the minority but I don't think Ratner would do a bad job. He shot incredible action sequences on X3 even though he had limited time to adapt and shoot the film. I also read a script treatment for the Wolverine movie and if they use any of what I read, it'll be phenomenal. As long as Jackman and the script stay in place, Wolverine will kick ass.

I agree, I dont see how people can place blame on Ratner for X3, he came on so late. Blame the screenwriter if you want to blame someone. He would do fine directing Wolverine.

Neither, really. I wouldn't mind something along the lines of him continuing to search for clues to his past, but an origin story is a bit much. That's part of the excitement and coolness of the character: the fact that he doesn't know a lot about who he is.

[DarkKnight81]

I think it has to be an origin story, how could they continue from the Xmen plot but not include the other Xmen?

[Danger^Cart]

That doesn't necessarily entail an origin story. There's no telling how long he was wandering around before he met up with Rogue.

[chasingbanky]

I'm all for this film and am hoping to get to see some DEADPOOL, or OMEGA RED action.

Ok, I see what you're saying but when I said origin I didnt necessarily mean from birth, just prior to the Xmen flicks.

[Rukas]

I think the only way to go about this is to follow the trend of the comics and make this about the Weapon X program.

Leave his origins a mystery. Flash back to Japan or Vietnam if need be, but Wolvie needs mystery. I hated the fact they finally did the Origin comics on him.

Weap X program, Sabertooth being the big bad. Ermm.... Kind of a Universal Soldier in the X-Men world movie I guess...

[Danger^Cart]

Okay, but that's hardly an origin story. When I hear origin story, I think Logan being recruited into the Weapon X program, and his life before that happened. Which I definetely do NOT want to see.

To each his own, but only a small portion of that looked good. The whole diving off the balcony bit looked absolutely terrible. The only shot I really liked of that was Wolvie stabbing the dude in the chest and screaming in his face. Now THAT was Wolverine.

[Rukas]

Who are the producers on this flick?

Me neither. The search for his past would be a lot more interesting than actually going through it with him, I think. They could have him going up against those who were with Colonel Stryker at the time and maybe some who don't want him to remember anything (or some crap like that :D). Throw some mutants his way to try to stop him.

[dfnshow]

if you touch on the weapon x program don't you need to deal with alpha flight then ?

[MisterChristian]

Who are the producers on this flick?

Avi Arad .... executive producer
Hugh Jackman .... producer
John Palermo .... producer
Lauren Shuler Donner .... producer

[jolanar]

I'd like to see Bryan Singer or Brett Ratner direct it preferably. Those two guys have the most experience and I think could give the most guaranteed bang for the buck. Anything else your gambling with. Since I doubt Singer will do it, that leaves Brett which I'm perfectly fine with.

[bigred760]

I just don't like Brett Ratner that much; he doesn't bring anything unique to his directing style - and that was obvious in the third X-Men movie. I'd be fine with somebody new; give Wolverine a way to distance itself from the X-men movies a little. (How about Matthew Vaughn?)

[DareDevil]

I highly doubt it, but that would kind of be a dream come true, but like i said, i doubt it.

[Badbird]

Or it could end up a low rent one shot, like Elektra.

However, I do think they'll take it more seriously than that movie, but I can't imagine them spending full on X-Men level cash... and they probably shouldn't.

Elektra aside, I'd like to see Rob Bowman direct this. I love The X Files movie and Reign of Fire. The guy has a great style that's really dark.

[adamjohnson]

Well, I heard somewherethat they were keeping several key x-men out of x-men so they could be in the Wolvie movie (cough, Gambit, cough)

Maybe Omage Red? Jubilee? I dunno.

I remember that too but I cant remember whether it was official word or fan speculation but one has to wonder, why call it Wolverine if you have all these other "key" X-Men we've all been waiting for included.

I was thinking they were keeping Gambit out of the X-Men movies so that he would be a replacement/successor to Wolverine in future installments. He would be the badass rebel in the flicks.

[castlesave]

the script i read for this movie was bad ass. it was wolverine in the past with a woman. sabretooth is hired by the government to kill mutants. very violent and bloody fights ensue. col. stryker is a big character in it. Weapon X is a proponent. really really liked it up to the ending, which was a little far fetched.

That actually never occurred to me but it is quite possible that they wanted to keep a spare rebel character in case Jackman didnt want to reprise the role in future films.

Here is the show reel for the man playing Weapon 11.

I actually think he would have made a good Gambit.

And here is highlights from his most impressive performance both acting and fighting wise:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=VCo7KyYi4DA

He also plays a bad guy in this so I guess it will be a similar performance to Weapon 11 somewhat...

[Kings-Rook1]

Prob old news but I'm kind of diggin the cast list posted on IMDB.

Cast (Credited cast)

Hugh Jackman ... Logan / Wolverine
Ryan Reynolds ... Wade Wilson / Deadpool
Liev Schreiber ... Victor Creed / Sabretooth
Dominic Monaghan ... Barnell Bohusk / Beak
Lynn Collins ... Silver Fox
Danny Huston ... William Stryker
Daniel Henney ... David North / Agent Zero
Taylor Kitsch ... Remy LeBeau / Gambit
Kevin Durand ... Frederick J. Dukes / The Blob

[castlesave]

script i read didnt have gambit in it. i hope they didnt just stick him in there for the sake of a cameo. really curious to see Schreiber as sabretooth. the character rips people apart in this movie, im not sure if he can pull it off. i hope im wrong.

Did you see the pictures of him with the Sabretooth chops? He looked bad ass... So that, plus Schreiber being bad ass in general: I think he'll own.

[Grand_Marquis]

What happened to that Wolverine thread with a crapload of info and on-set pics in it? This is definitely not it.

And if they screw up Gambit, I'm going to set someone on fire.

[CuatroDiablos]

What happened to any more info on this movie?..no pics , no teasers..what is going on?

[MisterChristian]

The less information the better :) It's out May 2009. I suspect a teaser maybe around Christmas.

[Grand_Marquis]

I guess it got pruned. :(
That's too bad. It had some great on-set pics, including some bystander photos of on-location shoots, and a couple interviews posted. It also had some teaser poster images up too.

Anyway, here are some imdb images of Taylor Kitsch, the dude playing as Gambit:
http://www.imdb.com/media/rm3277297152/nm2018237
Rough him up a bit, and they might be on to something.

Say, did anyone else notice that "The Incredible Hulk" ended with Banner running around in Canada? Makes me wonder..

[PR0J3KT M]

^^

well they did mention hulk being responsible for the deaths of two canadian hunters earlier in the film..so i think that's when logan gets involved..but i doubt hulk will show up in this movie..maybe mentioned, but i doubt anything else.

Looks like he could be Josh Holloway's little brother. Not a bad thing for the role.

[project 86]

anyone think captain America may show up since they both fought in the war

[CyclicNightmare]

Can't happen. Fox doesn't have the rights to the character.

[jaw2929]

I don't give a fuck what this is rated.... I'll be all over it, cuz Jackman as Wolvie fucking owns.

[Cinexcellence]

Seriously. At first I was taken aback at Liev Schreiber being cast, but I think he's a good choice for the role. He can pull it off.

[MojoDrag-on]

I can't wait to see this,and I think Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool is a great fucking choice. Deadpool is also one of my favs I hope the movie is good because they made one of my other fav characters horrible{Venom in spider-man 3).

[SpoonMan999]

Say, did anyone else notice that "The Incredible Hulk" ended with Banner running around in Canada? Makes me wonder..

This is a very interesting observation considering Wolvie's first appearance in the comics was fighting Hulk. He was hired by the Canadian government to take out Hulk while he was fighting Wendigo.

Extra tidbit: Wolvie's creators intended him to be a character for people to hate.

[Jig Saw 123]

I thought the film ended with him running through Bella Coola, British Columbia..:confused:

[perreli1]

As stoked as I am to see this movie, I just dont know about all the characters. Is it just me or is anyone else getting X3 flashbacks. I mean, theres a lot of characters who deserves a lot of screentime. Sabretooth, Gambit, and Deadpool for sure needs more than just a cameo. Im fine with Blob taking a minute or two but the others need development. What do u guys think??

[Lucky Denver]

That last scene you mentioned is probably my favorite in X2. Simple yet effective.

I'm excited to see Deadpool and being a Ryan Reynolds fan I'm even more excited.

Hopefully they'll give Gambit more than a cameo too.

This movie should be good. Lets hope we don't have another X3/Spiderman 3 on our hands here.

Sabertooth is a must, and the fact that Schreiber is cast implies that we'll get more than the "Bane-from-Batman and Robin"-esque brainless grunt...awesome...Deadpool...OK...super cool character, with a great actor behind it...But, GAMBIT???

Gambit is everything I hate about what comics, specifically marvel, specifically the x-men, became...this new gen of "cool" super hero...

He's fucking stupid...

Gambit is the man.

But he does not deserve to be in this movie. The reason for it i think there just putting him in there to make up for the fact that he was not in X3. After that there hoping to make everyone happy.

[Shockwave]

Fox, unfortunately.

Get ready for X3 all over again.

[Rukas]

Get ready for X3 all over again.

Why? Fox wasnt at fault for X3. Come on, they gave us X1 and X2 which were both great, especially X2. That is two for 3, enough to give them the benefit of doubt.

Plus Gavin Hood > Brett Ratner, and Ratner was the one responsible for the X3 mess not the fact the movie was made at Fox. So I really dont see why X3 should have any impact on Wolverine in terms of our expectations.

Anyway we should hopefully be getting more media for this soon as it has wrapped shooting. I cant believe we havent caught a glimpse of Deadpool yet...

[pablo_super1!]

I'm actually glad to see gambit, he was my favorite X men when I was younger and can't wait to see him on the big screen.

[Rukas]

I really hope we get a Deadpool spin off.

Ryan Reynolds is perfect for the role, I really dont know of any other actor with the comic wit and build to do the character justice.

Eh, it was FOX that wanted to rush that movie out the gate sooooo fucking fast because they were pissed that Singer went on to make Superman Returns for Warner.



I dont care for Rat, but it was Fox that hired him, went forward with a shit script, and rushed the product to the market as fast as it could simply because they were in a pissing match.

Of course Fox was at fault for X3.


I really dont think this will be an X3, but FOX of being its own worst enemy with its franchises.

The best part about it is that I believe Reynolds had pursued the role as Deadpool. I remember reading an interview where he expressed a lot of interest.

I love it when actor's actually want to do stuff like this when so many others look down on it. Thank God for actors like Jackman, Jane and Reynolds who seem to have no problem being a fanboy or at least appealing to the fanboys.

[Shockwave]

I have a feeling this movie won't be rated R.... :(


Im have a feeling your right.

...and its a shame since its pretty much been proven that R rated action movies can sell extremely well.

A PG-13 rating puts such a handicap on what they can have Wolverine do, it would be silly to limit the character that much.

..but it could still work, i dug the Lady Deathstrike fight in X2, so its not like i think it would be BAD PG-13, just it would be a waterd down product.

[Jig Saw 123]

Wolverine is one of the most violent characters in a comic book. There should be no limits of this....

There will be alot of carnage, itll just happen off screen.

[APzombie]

it should be noted that Jackman himself is responsible for how much violence we see Wolvy do. He wanted this to be PG-13 when Synder optioned it for R. He cares for his youth fan base.

I dont want to see a waterd down Wolverine movie. Even after 3 X-men movies, weve yet to see Wolverine go all out anywhere near like he has in the comics.

[Dr_Loomis]

I agree, they will no why make a popular comic book film a hard R ever !! not as long as they can sell Halloween costumes and toys of the stars !!

The movie would be good as an R but the studios want as many people to see this movie as possible and i'm sorry to say that means cashing in on the little kids
!!

[Jig Saw 123]

But Hollywood should notice the great shift thats coming along, and by this I mean rated R films are making dough. 300 is a perfect example, and I don't care if this is only meant to bring in a younger fan base it's not in Wolverine's character to be a kid friendly superhero. I mean he's not Superman or Spider-Man.

The only thing that's really holding back my excitement for this movie, is Liev Schreiber. Don't get me wrong he's a damn good actor. But as Sabretooth? Really?! This is just as bad as Vinnie Jones playing Juggernaut.

Why the fuck didnt they just recast Tyler Mane? I thought he was great in the role, in terms of his look and size. And he's a fairly decent actor to boot.

Ryan Reynolds is absolutely perfect for Deadpool,though. There isn't another actor out there that could do the character justice.

I hope deadpool is somewhat improved BUT it aint this movie. Aslong as Wolvie is done right that's all i'm asking for. Something cool should be popping up on the net very soon.

[Shockwave]

Awesome.

Love the Gambit pics.

Dammit, i still want to see a well done MR SINISTER in a X-men movie. Random thought, just thought id throw it out.

What the fuck? Did they just put a red tank top on Reynolds and call it a day? That's NOT Deadpool.

We don't even know if that's from the final movie; it could be him practicing for all we know.

[Shockwave]

Doesnt this movie happen in the past?

He could have not contracted the cancer/ Weapon-X operation/upgrade that turned him into Deadpool as of yet.

He was already a killer before he got the super healing factor/burnt look we all know and love.

Wolverine has bone claws for part of the movie, so its only natural that Deadppol hasnt got his upgrade as of yet either. Hell, it may happen in the movie.


If anything, im surprised Gambits not a kid.

[pablo_super1!]

This looks really good. I want some Hi-Res pics of Gambit, I am really glad he's in this. I was dissapointed he wasn't in any of the X-men films seeing as how he's my favorite X-men.

Hopefully that picture of Ryan Reynolds is pre Weapon-X operation/Upgrade.

[project 86]

omg trailer is here it looks awesome :

http://youtube.com/watch?v=3W6C984nSk0

[Danger^Cart]

Gotta love that last line.

[rilocay]

Tha shit looks fucking awesome. It just upped my hype a tenfold. As for questions about Wolverine and his violence, Jakcman is going to be going i think as far as he can with the rating, im guessing just very minimal blood if any. And yeah, the x-men origins ontop of wolverine still looks crap, but what are ya gonna do. The film itself by that, look very awesome. It's just behind Watchmen for my most anticipated now. Wow.

[Lucky Denver]

Holy. . .shit.

Even with the bad quality, that got me stoked!

[ilovemovies]

Gotta love that last line.

You mean you were actually able to hear it? Because I sure as hell couldn't.

The action was impressive looking though.

[Danger^Cart]

Sabretooth says something along the lines of, "How you gonna kill me?"

To which Wolverine replies, "I'm gonna cut your godamn head off. See how that works."

[venom718]

why is gambit in this...????he had nothing to do with wolverines origin.But it does look cool.

[Terror Australis]

*Finishes watching the trailer*

....I think I just came.

I hope wolvey swears a lot.

[anakinsrise]

Looks pretty good so far so we will see what happens.
"I'm gonna cut your godamn head off. See how that works."
great line!!!!!

[Rukas]

I like that the trailer didnt show too much of the fights and action, which I expect to be awesome considering JJ "Loco" Perry did the fight choreography.

[APzombie]

Spectacular trailer. This is turning out better than i could have imagined.

[rob the many]

seems to me that alot of people want to see this. Considering people were flipping.

[Lawgick]

Well you know one good trailer is all it takes.:rolleyes:

Let them eat cake.:p



...and yes I'm going to see this movie.:cool:

[Raimo69]

why is gambit in this...????he had nothing to do with wolverines origin.But it does look cool.

My guess is for just to make everyone happy. Cause he was not in the third.

[Weapon X]

I don't remember hearing that Emma Frost was in this. Can anyone identify the actress? (Y'know, 'cause blurry, poorly-shot fan video is a great way to make an ID.)

[TeeRay]

RYAN REYNOLDS AS DEADPOOL OMGOMGOMG!!!!!

...seriously though, I can't wait for this to come out.

And you do see him briefly in the trailer.

[castlesave]

i was wrong. didnt think schrieber could pull off sabretooth's presence. looks good to me.

[solidstealth]

schreiber as sabertooth looks pretty good, a lot better than what i had expected... good trailer but gambit looks dumb

[fooknasty]

I don't know really anything about X-Men mythology, but I believe Gambit became the leader of one of Weapon X after Sabertooth disappears (or something along those lines).

I had about zero interest in seeing this movie, but that footage definitely got me excited.

[bonoferox]

Since it seems to be down almost everywhere else, here it is again.

Apparently, he was part of the whole Weapon X whatchamadealie.

Trailer = awesome. Figures all the cool stuff happens on the one day of Comicon I wasn't there.

[perreli1]

wow, sabretooth actually looks good. Gambit looked crappy and why wasn't Reynolds wearing a mask, that kind of killed it for me. Still an awesome trailer though, ill be there opening weekend.

Oh, and does anyone know if that chick was Yoriko??

[KCJ506]

I hope Deadpool breaks the fourth wall at least once in this.

[Shockwave]

It was Silver-fox if i heard right.

as for Deadpool, it looked like it was a training scene to me. Thats probably why he dosnt have the costume on. As for why he has no scars, its probably because this movie takes place in the past.

[rilocay]

why is gambit in this...????he had nothing to do with wolverines origin.But it does look cool.


I agree. As cool as he is from those few shots of him we see, the only reason he's been put in this is to make some fans happy because he was cut from the X-men movies. I say some fans because, he has nothing to do with Wolverine at this time in their life's and has nothing to do with Weapon X. This should be about Wolverine and not take to much time away with him. As cool as the trailer is...This should be Wolverines story, i don't want another Last stand with too many character's. Please Hugh Jackman, remember that! Having said that, it could still definatly work out:).

[Ron34]

i saw the trailer and it looks pretty good.

deadpool needs to wear a mask and gambit looks meh.

ill be ready for the opening day.

[MidnightAngel]

Since it seems to be down almost everywhere else, here it is again.

http://www.worstpreviews.com/trailer.php?id=143&item=0The trailer looks excellent! It will take that awful taste after X-Men The Last Stand.

P.S. The fat guay that appears at a boxing ring is Blob?

[hatePiLL]

okay.. after watching this trailer like a hundred times, why do i have a feeling that this movie is gonna kinda suck..?

hehehh... i don't see any of the mutants together and it feels like their role in the movie is nothing but a mere cameo. I know this is about wolverine and that this is just a trailer composed of footages they shot so far, but when i see the scenes of Deadpool and Gambit, i get a vague reminiscence of a commercal for Smallville. the teaser they showed years ago fro x2 had more oomph than this one...

i dunno.. after watching the best comic cross over, TDK, and the last installment for X-Men X3, my hopes for X-Men Origins Wolverine is kinda dimm. or... perhaps this is my subconcious speaking of not to get my hopes high for a movie that'll eventully suck. i'm psyched really, but overall, i ain't feeing it.

[hate]

[Shockwave]

They are all involved in the Weapon X project, or whatever team Stryker is putting together.

[Kings-Rook1]

I like that the trailer didnt show too much of the fights and action, which I expect to be awesome considering JJ "Loco" Perry did the fight choreography.

JJ “Loco” Perry? Are you sure he’s even on this project? And isn’t he more a stunt man then a fight choreographer? I’m fairly sure Chad Stahelski and David Leitch are the action coordinators on this one. Chad’s got some decent credits to his name but David’s work history doesn’t impress me too much. I am concerned about the fight scenes on this one just based on who they have working on it, what has been done on the X films and what in the script. My fingers are crossed but I have my doubts.

[hatePiLL]

yeah i know about that, how they're all part of the weapon x project. my only problem is... will they do it justice? i don't exactly see any of the mutants together as a group. when i looked closer at the shot after Stryker says something along the lines of, "i created a team..." or whatever, they show Deadpool surrounded by a bunch of soldiers. when they show the blob and the others, they're all individual scenes in different locations like the Blog in a boxing ring and Deadpool in some arena place. it's as if they don't have much of a role other than cameo, very similar to how Wanted was shot. replace the butcher with the Blob, replace the repairman with Deadpool, and replace the gunsmith with Agent Zero and... wow i just realized... replace fox with Silverfox, sloan with Stryker, and cross with Sabretooth, and dude.. it's fucking WANTED.

either way... i'm fucking hyped to see it. it's unfortunate though, Ryan Reynold's costume design of Hannibal King in Blade II looked way cooler than Deadpool's little microsecond of a shot in the trailer. someone mentioned it earlier or in some other thread but it's true, it's just Reynold's in a red shirt. :-/

[sbunn10]

I just watched the trailer a couple days ago, and I was really surprised. I had low expectations for it, after X3's letdown, but the trailer looks badass. Especially the last quote.

It looks like liev schreiber will actually be a good sabretooth. He looks better than this guy

Whats with all the Tyler Mane hate? I thought h looked great as Sabretooth.

[darkface]

The trailer made it look better than I thought it would. I'm not a big comic book fan, more of a comic-book-movie fan. So I might go see this one.

[Cop No. 633]

Whats with all the Tyler Mane hate? I thought h looked great as Sabretooth.

Yeah, "looked" good. He only had one line and in no way showed he could act. Liev Schrieber can actually act. His face resembles the early 90's Sabretooth more than Mane. I will not miss Mane in anyway. The only thing Mane had going for him was his height.

[Rawlin67]

they finally put my favorite X-Man (Gambit) in a movie, and they get a nobody half-ass actor for the job. Thank you!

also, i swear, if Ryan Reynolds does that stupid smart-mouth sarcastic joking, the same stuff that RUINED Blade: Trinity and made it almost unwatchable, ill find a way to bring him and his career down.

i think the other movie that i saw the actor that plays Gambit was in the movie the Covenant. i don't know much about his acting his skills, but he does look the part. it's funny though because these "nobody" actors that star in the x-men series end up doing fairly well in hollywood. i mean, X1 was a platform for these nobody actors and now they're huge. people were skeptical of hugh jackman, a showtune singing broadway staged actor playing wolverine and voila, he proved them wrong.

were you trying to be sarcastic or something because it's funny how you bring up Ryan Reynolds' portrayal of Hannibal King in Blade III. i think that "stupid smart-mouth sarcastic joking" stuff that you say was what ruined Blade III is what i believe what Deadpool's about. i mean, he is the merc-with-the-mouth and well... sounds like a Ryan Reynolds to me, except for the merc part :-P.

i think the casting's great. i just can't believe they took one of those Tremor Brothers from Smokin' Aces and turned him into the blob. he could have easily been cast to play someone who fits his physique and overall look.. he could've even made a Gambit. i can't wait for this movie...

Hey....I'm sure everyone could do without the sass, mister.

The point that they were trying to make is that Deadpool's nickname is the "Merc with a mouth" because he's always wisecracking, so much so that he even breaks the fourth wall sometimes. Ryan Reynolds, on top of being in great shape and having experience with action films, is perfect for the role because he's a great comedic actor who's distinctive voice can carry out even under a mask....

[hatePiLL]

that's what is said. he's soo Deadpool, this graphic is a good example of who Deadpool really is. apart from Ryan Reynold's disappointing costume, which is a micro-second shot in the teaser from Comic-Con, i think he can do justice of who Deadpool's about.

You know who else was a nobody before the X-Men movie franchise? Hugh Jackman.

Ever think it might be best to give the role to a lesser-known actor? It'll give more focus on the character and not on the guy playing him. It worked for Spider-Man.

And Ryan Reynolds IS Deadpool. I can't think of anyone better to play him.

[rilocay]

Lmfao at the pic from hatePill, great find.

Deadpool's uniform at the moment while looks shit, it is before the whole character became as he is, and it hint's enough at it, so i think it's okay. They will set him up and then we'll see his actual duds. Should be done like that anyways. I think he has the best chance of stealing the show out of all the characters (if any come close to Wolve, that is), but he could also be annoying aswel. Fingers crossed though.

[therealjohng]

Ryan was born to play a college frat-boy. and thats pretty much it.


I disagree, I think he can do other types of role. Definitely. Well....maybe.

[rilocay]

http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f239/torso_boy/deadpoolcostumepossibilitie.jpg

If were going to go like the comics, Deadpool would have a costume similar to the one that's the thrid panel in that pic. But i do think that if we do seem him in his duds it will be the more common red/black one. But then i'm thinking seeing as wolverine aint exactly going to have his costumes from the comics (never were in the x series), im thinking deadpool may just have the face part like his comic character (perhaps balaclava sort of thing or something like Rorshach), with the rest being similar enough, but keeping it in line with the rest of the movie and x-series. And i'll shut up about deadpool now cuz the film's clearly called Wolverine. lol.

[Trooper3]

I'm sure the scene they showed was of some sort of flash back or towards the begining..... @ the 2 min mark Deadpool can be seen on the left in full costume and it seems like no hair.

[Rukas]

I disagree, I think he can do other types of role. Definitely. Well....maybe.

I think he did a good job with the action on Blade 3 and while that movie sucked it wasnt because of him, in fact I think he saved most of it with his humor. And he was great with the drama in School Of Life, that movie was very touching, so yeah, I think he can do other roles quite well.

[rilocay]

I just read via joblo's front page that Fox wants to make Wolverine more family friendly. While i totally see their point, Wolverine is not family friendly. As a character he aint, his story/backstory aint. After the awesomeness of that trailer, you'd think that the great fanfare it's had they would have kept it liek that. Not to mention TDK being dark and highly succesfull, and watchmen looking to do the same.

This is one of the case's where the studio needs to drop their case and let the movie do what it should. Not for kids, bub.

I don't know why the studio hired Gavin Hood in the first place if they were going for a light, family type movie. That's not exactly what he's known for making. Didn't they learn from the disappointing box office of FF2 that watering down a comic book to family levels isn't a good thing? X-Men already has a built in fanbase, they can make this thing as dark as a PG-13 rating will allow and it will still make over $150 million at the very least.

[muttly69]

This movie has so much potential to be good not great. I am a comic fan especially the X-Men. Wolvie is my favorite and a movie only on him would have been fantastic if done right. A dark gritty blood lusting wolverine movie would be awesome. But regardless of Warner Brothers stepping in everyone know this movie was going to be cheesy as hell. They should have skipped this movie and made a new X-men flick. Not necessarily a part 4 but revamped stories just like the comics do it. They just start and new story line and go from there. An X-men Adventure would be the best. Based off the cartoon series leading to Apocalypse, who I was hopping that he would be in the first three.

[Trooper3]

Ya Seriously take a bet and make it dark... Has Fox seen a little know movie called The Dark Knight (it even has Dark in the title) WE DON'T want kid movies!!!!

Oh ya Ryan Reynolds is great.. Seriously 2 guys a girl & a Pizza place..

and to all those people who is wondering who DP is... here's a hint Goto the comic book store. (new Deadpool comic comic Sept 1)

As for Deadpool yes RR we'll be f'n awesome as film. The 1 part doesn't look like Good old Wade. But if you look 2 the left @ the 2min mark on the trailer it looks like Deadpool all cancered up & in suit. So i wonder if the scene shown before is a flashback.

Right on. That "family friendly" stuff is pure BS or pure misinterpretation. TDK could be considered family friendly because families have paid to see it and there's even a toy line for it but the film itself is as dark as it should be. Wolverine will be the same way. If you've seen the comic con footage, you already know this is true. The footage starts with our "hero" getting cut down by a firing squad and ends with him threatening to cut Sabretooth's G-damn head off. Family revenue? Maybe but it's definitely not kiddie content.

[FireCaptain4]

I sure hope Wolverine comes out as dark and bleak as I had hoped. Fox should be ripped of their ownership of the X-MEN franchise (could this really happen?) before they REALLY do the heavy-hitting on it. I mean, just look at what's left of the Alien and Predator franchises now that Fox has raped them into the ground with the AVP films.

[Grand_Marquis]

We can only hope that after Wolverine is released, Fox's rights to x-men revert to Marvel, so that this franchise can finally be put in the hands of people who know what the fuck they're doing.

[barryallen_thef]

Why? Fox wasnt at fault for X3. Come on, they gave us X1 and X2 which were both great, especially X2. That is two for 3, enough to give them the benefit of doubt.


Plus Gavin Hood > Brett Ratner, and Ratner was the one responsible for the X3 mess not the fact the movie was made at Fox. So I really dont see why X3 should have any impact on Wolverine in terms of our expectations.

Anyway we should hopefully be getting more media for this soon as it has wrapped shooting. I cant believe we havent caught a glimpse of Deadpool yet...

oh please! Fox was at fault from the beginning for not renewing Singer contract unlike what Sony did with Raimi who sign him for a 2 picture deal but after SP2 B.O. success they got on the horn and sign him up for SP3 which was shit.

Another reason why X3 was a mess in the first place because after Singer bolted for WB to do Superman after WB couldnt get Superman off the ground with Ratner-they rush butt the movie to beat Singer Superman!!!!!!

so you see thats why some people if not everyone is kind of weary bout this one including me..after finding out its actually from Fox and not Marvel..shit look what Marvel did with Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk(reboot) when they actually produced it and financed it not some lam-o PTB @ Fox or WB. I think both Fox and WB should take a note from Marvel on how to actually make a fun superhero movie(with the exception of BB and TDK) which are Nolans baby AND NOT WB!

k enough rant *digs a hole on the ground to hide in*

Ok let me get this straight. What you're saying is that the director, Nolan, is responsible for Batman Begins and The Dark Knight not the studio, WB. And that the director, Ratner, is not responsible for X-Men 3 but the studio, Fox, is?

So when the movie is good it's the director's doing and when the movie sucks its the studio's doing?

I guess it was all Singer's doing that X1 and X2 were good, Fox had nothing to do with it right? And then Fox was responsible for X3 because it sucked?

That is bullshit.

I am tired of this constant studio bashing. Yes they are in it for the money, but they have given us the goods on X1 and X2 (in regards to this series), so I will give them the benefit of the doubt on Wolverine.

Although, I do here they are fucking with the cut on Wolverine trying to make it less dark, and fuck them for that. Fuck them in their big fat wallets.

Nolan saw both Batman films through from the beginning. He co-wrote and produced for both of them. Ratner had nothing to do with the writing process or the production side of X-men 3. Hell, the fuckin' film was already in pre-production when he was brought on board. Yes, Fox is responsible for its shittiness of X-3, they've ruined many films with great potential, they've canceled many great TV shows, and they're currently trying to stop Watchmen from being released as well.

Fuck Fox.

Couldnt have said it better.

Ratner really did a better job then i thought he would do with X3 considering how rushed/fucked that entire production was. The scene with Prof. X in Jeans house is one of the best in the enitre trilogy.

X3 could have been the best in the series rather then the least. All that just because they wanted to beat Superman Returns out the gate due to a pissing match with Singer.:mad:

While not really a great movie, it holds up a hell of alot better then Spider-man 3 does.



I dont think Warner will be that stupid and rush a product of poor quality out the gate. The Batman series has already been blasted once before, i dont think they will fall of the same mistake twice.

..i hope.

PS- I hope FOX at least has the balls to give us a Wolverine R rated cut on DVD/Blu-ray. Id settle for that.

[Trooper3]

I wonder if you could get away with making 2 cuts of the movie.. PG-13. for them kiddies then the R-Rated show for the older peeps

[Shockwave]

Remember what FOX did with the new Die Hard? PG-13 in theatres, R rated cut on home.

Im betting they do the same thing for Wolverine.

[barryallen_thef]

Nolan saw both Batman films through from the beginning. He co-wrote and produced for both of them. Ratner had nothing to do with the writing process or the production side of X-men 3. Hell, the fuckin' film was already in pre-production when he was brought on board. Yes, Fox is responsible for its shittiness of X-3, they've ruined many films with great potential, they've canceled many great TV shows, and they're currently trying to stop Watchmen from being released as well.

Fuck Fox.

are you seriously telling me that TPTB @ Fox is considering cancelling Watchmen to theaters after they release their trailer for the movie? what the hell are they thinking? *knock knock* hello Fox! TDK? remember how much money that movie has made? oh for pete's sake. Then again i gave up on Fox after X3 and the decision not to continue with Singer. As for Wolverine well hopefully they go the Die Hard 4 way with PG-13 in theaters and R for DVD.

[LordSimen]

also, i swear, if Ryan Reynolds does that stupid smart-mouth sarcastic joking, the same stuff that RUINED Blade: Trinity and made it almost unwatchable, ill find a way to bring him and his career down.

Anyone catch the "first look" at the animated Hulk VS Wolverine DVD on the new Next Avengers DVD? Deadpool WILL be appearing and the clip shows...


SPOILER.....

Deadpool jamming a grenade down the Hulk's throat.


These animated movies are going to be excellent and a step above what Marvel has already produced. Hulk VS Wolverine AND Hulk VS Thor)

Here's a trailer but I couldn't find the "first look" feature.

Awesome JoeChar, thanks for posting that.

I'll definately be checking this out.

[rilocay]

Deadpool's not too shabby in that clip! Love the shoryuken that simen's posted up though, i actually hadn't seen that before!

Is there any news on how the set of Wolvie is doing, like is there any more troubles or stuff like that? Maybe a few pic leaks?

Fuck Fox.

A-MEN! Of all the film studios, Fox is without a doubt the worst. While other companies (save for Pixar) frequently make mistakes, Fox has perfected the art of ruining everything it touches. Here's but a short list of their misdeeds:

-shafting Ridley Scott on Kingdom of Heaven (thankfully, we still got a great directors cut)
-chincing out on Bryan Singer when he wanted to use Sentinels in X3, driving him off and handing the helm over to Brett Ratner
-meddling with David Fincher's work on Alien3 (I've never seen it, for I wish to have the work of Scott and Cameron remain unsullied)
-cancelling Arrested Development
-greenlighting those horrendous spoof "Movies"
-their "news" network (the less I say here, the better)
-trying to prevent WATCHMEN from reaching the screen (now they're just being evil)

The only plus Fox has is James Cameron, and I bet even he can't stand them. Fox needs to learn how not mess with success. Look at what happened to Warner Bros when they meddled excessively with their superhero franchise (the wreckage of Superman III and IV, as well as the Schumacher fiascos still haunts people's minds).

BTW, I find it ironic that Richard Donner came in to avert a full-fledged confrontation. Not sure how many here know this, but when he was filming Superman back in the late 70s, he had to put up with some really incompetent and nepotistic producers who ended up firing him halfway through the filming of Superman 2 (which was being done cuncurrently w/ Superman '78).

[miguel_montes]

^^ Not to mention cancelling Firefly. Fucking FOX...

[bigred760]

I thought that was more they didn't want to wait for Singer to finish Supes, so they went ahead without him.

Blame the viewers . . . or lack thereof.

Fox did not run the pilot first. They ran the series out-of-order and screwed up any chance for garnering a mass fan base when it started by NOT introducing the characters nor explaining why and what made them outlaws.

[Steven S.]

Wasn't this a Wolverine thread at one point? There's other places for FOX and Firefly and etc.

[m_burlock]

Given who the director, one of the writers, and the action co-ordinators are I don't have high hopes for Wolverine. :(

[project 86]

yeah cause Zathura and Elf were such stellar movies before Jon Favreau did Iron Man why does everyone need phenomenal directors for every move to be good there haven been great directors who have made very shitty movies

[FireCaptain4]

I think off-beat and unexpected choices are the best way to go for genre films some of the time. As mentioned above, who would have thought the same guy who made "Elf" could make "Iron Man"? Who thought the director of "The Duelists" could have made "Alien"? Why would someone think the guy that did "The Usual Suspects" could bring about "X-Men"? Then again, some offbeat choices just don't work. Jean-Pierre Jeunet didn't exactly work wonders with "Alien: Resurrection". Kenneth Branagh also faced some harsh criticism over his version of "Frankenstein" (which is mostly undeserved in my opinion).

[jolanar]

I find an offbeat director will put 150% effort into the project where as a big named director might only treat it as "just another project."

[MisterChristian]

Given who the director, one of the writers, and the action co-ordinators are I don't have high hopes for Wolverine.

Martin, check out the film Tsotsi, which won Gavin Hood an Academy Award (Best Foreign Language Film). David Benioff has written some great films like Troy and 25th Hour. Funny that you're basing your decision on the hired "action co-ordinators" :)

I have faith in those who are involved in actually making Wolverine. I have no confidence in Fox to market and sell the film. No doubt they'll do something to it.

[APzombie]

The director is great. The writers are pretty damn good. i don't care who the action co-ordinatros are, they listen to the director and there is too much money involved not to have them do what he wants.

[venom718]

I hope deadpool does have his costume.ITS BAD ASS
http://www.collectiblez.nl/collectiblezrk/statues/bowendesigns/bowenproto/deadpool.jpg

I actually wanna see wolverine in costume maybe for a brief second.this one..

I wont see the wolverien costume i know.Im just interested to see if they could do it and make it work.

[Trooper3]

So when do you think we'll start seeing some more Wolvie news. Hopefully pretty soon. At least release another trailer. Hopefully by the end of the year we'll have something more to grasp onto..

All I really want to see is the man DP.. Hopefully a poster of Wade. some action figures lol. . .

It seems like we heard things about Iron Man and Batman this time last year.

[Trooper3]

IEST.net has posted an interview they had with Fox co-chairman Tom Rothman to discuss upcoming 20th Century Fox projects, including Wolverine. When asked about Deadpool he had the following to say:

IESB: So, we get teased in the Wolverine trailer with Deadpool, he's a fan favorite, another second tier Iron Man-like character, and Ryan Reynolds has been dying to play this guy for years and I think that's why he even did the cameo because he wants a stand alone film. Any movement there?

TR: Yes and no, I mean, Deadpool is an integral part of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, we are in the process now, of doing all the CG work to create that character at an A +++ level, that's being done in truly as state of the art fashion as possible...

IESB: Scarring and all?

TR: It will be very rewarding for the fans, let's put it that way. It's a high level endeavor because he figures importantly in the movie, so whether he'll spin off into his own movie, if that's what you're asking, I don't know the answer. We will have to see.

So far little had been said about Deadpool's appearance or role in the movie, and this interview hints that he does have a fairly significant role and that his appearance will be closer to the comics than previously thought.

Of course there will be a spin-off. Wolverine will make a lot of money and people will pretty much be talking only about Deadpool.

Why are they re-releasing "War of the Worlds"?

EDIT: Ok, I see you meant "The Day the Earth Stood Still."

[razgriz21]

As long as the movie stays with the director's vision, I'll be content.:)

Woops mental slip. I was looking at the trailer for Earth Stood Still and thinking "I should check out War Of The Worlds again," and that's the result ;)

[drc5145]

I'm still very afraid for this movie. Stuff I had read about going behind the director's back to change up some stuff was pretty depressing, yet not surprising to hear. I really want this to work but my gut feeling says it just won't.

It also doesn't help I'm still really ticked at them with the lawsuit involving Watchmen, wanting to stop the movie's showing and all.:mad: The only thing going for them (For me at least) is House M.D., Fringe and The Simpsons, the only 2 shows I feel are worth watching on Fox.

[Conz]

im sorry, this movie, nor the Magneto, actually ESPECIALLY the Magneto movie did not have to be made.

[project 86]

this movie should be made magneto not so much because x men movie audiences never found out Logan's past in x men films

Holy shit......I think he got more jacked (heh get it?) for this one than he did for last Stand:eek:

[APzombie]

He's a monster. Look at those arms! He's literally the pages of the the comics come to life, only a foot taller.

I am exited, i think Hood is a great director for the project. I'm just a little resistant because FOX apparently seems to want to make this as mediocre as possible so everyone can not hate it... though that means nobody will love it.

well that and they want to stay away from the R rated cause that would mean less $$ if its an PG-13 then its kachin for them. they obviously aiming for a more broader audience that plus Tim Roth is-well-a d **k plain and simple. althought i do agree that Jackman looks more pump up then X3

[Raimo69]

I am really surprised that this movie so far is getting better and better every time I hear something about it. Only thing that I am worried about is if the trailer is shit. Then my hopes will be back where they started at.

The trailer is the only reason I'm going to see The Day The Earth Stood Still on Friday. Sounds promising if this guy can be believed...

I'm finally excited about the Wolverine movie. Sorry- the trailer isn't out yet but the vid guys were mastering it today so I maaay have snuck a look. It looks rather epic - not a cheap spin-off that I was anticipating. The tone is QUITE serious and there is gratuitous slow-motion everywhere. Gambit also looks MUCH better in action than the first pic suggested (the "charge effect" is a little hokey though, but I didn't get the time to really look at it). Characters like The Blob and all of (what I assume to be) Alpha Flight look as realistic as they could be- no crazy costumes or stupid X-Men 3 shit. In fact this movie looks to kick the shit out of X-men 3 and drag it through broken glass. Hopefully....

http://michael-lobster.livejournal.com/

Alpha Flight? Wha? I think he must be confusing characters.

[Smiert Spionam]

Maybe. Or there could actually be an appearance from Alpha Flight in the film....

[BriZai]

Everytime he portrays Wolverine, he changes his look in regards to his build. Orginal X-Men he was pretty cut, since he was cast late he didn't have much time to change, X2 he was bigger and still cut, X3 i think he was his bulkiest, and now this movie he is in just insane shape. I think it is great that he does push ups before scenes to get his veins popping out. You got to give him credit he is trying to luck like a comic book character with his body.

[shawn-o]

I just got back from DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL. Attached to it was a trailer for Wolverine!!!!!!

[fooknasty]

This looks pretty sweet. I like the idea of Hood directing and Jackman having a big say in the movie (considering how passionate he is for the character).

the trailer would be even better if they didn't have the last line edited

Do I smell a great origin story along the lines of Batman Begins?
