X-Men Origins : Wolverine (Official Traler)

[fraga]

Didn't see a thread on this...figured it deserved it's own thread.

[Medvedenko]

It looks very tight.

Damn. That looks more badass than I thought it would.

Looks like they're finally going to pull out the freaking Gambit card.

I'm no expert in X-Men but doesn't Gambit come into the picture much later than when Wolverine was created.

[Anti.Hero]

I hope they make this movie great.

Best comic character ever created.

Wolverine is definitely one of Marvel's best characters. Looking forward to the movie! :tu

[TheTruth]

That looked great. Sabertooth's character looked pretty bad ass also. Can't wait for this one.

:wow holy crap this movie is gonna be to badass.

If you want a good laugh you should drop by the IMDB message board for this movie, or really any comic book movie for that matter. You'd swear that they were making biopics about their relatives with the way the shriek over every inaccuracy. Some guy was shitting his pants over the fact that Weapon X and several characters in the film are Canadian in the comics and the film would make it seem that it's an American military program.

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

Amen to that. My biggest complaint about the first X-Men movie was how badly they squandered Sabretooth by turning him into little more than a cave man.

[BlackSwordsMan]

damn this trailer sucks shit
cool cameo of dead pool though

[dimsah]

Many of you might not agree but I think Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool is a great casting.

When thee announced the actor to play Gambit, people were up in arms because they'd didn't give him red eyes. :lmao

The rumored reason from Marvel, anyways, is because they did not want people to confuse Cyclops with Gambit. :rolleyes

[Shaolin-Style]

Gambits gonna throw down in that movie huh

Any time I see purists pissing and moaning about these things I always remember one of the best exchanges from the first X Men film.

"You actually go out in these things?"
"What would you prefer? Yellow spandex?"

Not everything translates well to the screen. Although I for one am still angry that Marvel caved to that prima donna Jackman's demand that the claws simply be artificially attached to his hands rather than being a real man and having metal grafted to his skeleton. What a pussy.

[BacktoBasics]

So this movie has little to no relation to the previous X-Men movies. As in this isn't a prequel of sorts.

yup back when all wolverine had was a healing factor

Many of you might not agree but I think Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool is a great casting.

I agree 10000000000000%. He has the sarcasm and wit to pull it off.

[Dex]

Yeah, they already jacked up Nightcrawler's character and tried to mash Jubilee and Rogue into one character, so it shouldn't be any surprise that they screwed up the Gambit storyline, too.

[Ginofan]

Taylor Kitsch as Gambit? Yummy!

Ditto to both.

Also, I like Danny Huston as Stryker. He's a great actor that just doesn't get used enough.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Many of you might not agree but I think Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool is a great casting.

10 to 1 he finds a way to use the word frat or frat party, even in this role.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

I'm actually looking forward to this movie. I just wish they could make it rated R and have truly brutal and gory fight scenes. Almost noone realizes how insanely brutal wolverine's fights were, back in the 80's around the Mutant Massacre and Inferno days.

He goes freaking postal with his claws in the Sabretooth fights, sticks him over and over again in the chest, etc.

But, really, Sabretooth never had a chance against Wolverine. Which sucked. Wolverine fucked him up so bad when he was in the Marauders.

And I hope they don't throw Gambit in there just because....hopefully its actually relevant.

the "work print" leaked out last week.

I saw half of it at a friends party. I'll make the bold claim that this is one of the worst movies of 2009, and one of Marvel/Fox's worst movies every.

Horrible plot, horrible acting, horrible casting...hugh jackman just took 10 steps back in his career.

[Trainwreck2100]

they turned deadpool into barraka and gave him laser beam eyes fuck you fox

[InRareForm]

i watched it at my friend's house, internet version, it was good, would be much better at the theaters of course.

is that ryan reynolds in make up or is it someone different?

[BlackSwordsMan]

wow can't believe that's deadpool...

[desflood]

wow that's deadpool?
Not exactly... that's Weapon XI. Without posting too many spoilers (yes, I watched it - sue me) they're the same, but they're not. I think if you actually go back to the old comics they had nothing to do with each other, but they are linked in the movie. Weapon XI is played by Scott Adkins.


Edit: Going back to the old comics myself, I discovered that there was no Weapon XI at all - it stopped at X.

[ss1986v2]

is that ryan reynolds in make up or is it someone different?

its someone else (dude named scott adkins).

as for the movie, i dont want to spoil too much (or come off as the raging comic fanboy that i am), but its so filled with fail.

ive always been a big deadpool fan, and was psyched to see reynolds play the part. and he does a pretty good job of it in his limited time on screen, but they destroy the character before he ever gets a real shot at it.

i will cut the rest of the nerd rant, and just leave it with me not having high hopes going in, yet still being utterly disappointed. congrats to fox!

[Death In June]

This looks like balls. I was a fan of X-2, but the third movie was garbage and this looks considerably worse than that.

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

I was so happy to see that they were finally getting Sabertooth right that I never thought they'd botch Deadpool like that. With that said I'll still probably end up going to see it.

[Fermixalot]

[Mister Sinister]

Ha ha, Deadpool gets botched. Seriously. He's a mix of Spider-Man, Deathstroke the (friggin') Terminator, and Wolverine. That's it.

[jman3000]

They can make it as shitty as they want and know that it'll gross 200 million at the box office, easy.

I'm still gonna go see it at theaters... even if I know I'll leave saying "they could have made it so much better".

As long as the Gambit scenes are bad ass, I'll be contented.

[mexicanjunior]

As long as the Gambit scenes are bad ass, I'll be contented.

They weren't, Gambit seemed pretty lame in the movie.

[FaithInOne]

7.5

Hypothetically, "from the trailer", Wolvie is still not dark enough. Compared to other comic book movies, from the trailer, it was above average.

Btw: Wolverine is, by far, the best comic book character created of all time.

[FaithInOne]

I was so happy to see that they were finally getting Sabertooth right that I never thought they'd botch Deadpool like that. With that said I'll still probably end up going to see it.

Yeah, kinda sucked they fucked up deadpool. Maybe he'll make a comeback if they ever do a Cable movie.

Liev owned as Sabretooth though. The casting was pretty good in this movie. It just wasn't dark enough and not well developed imo.

the fact that there is no way storm could have killed him, it makes no sense he never came back in x2 or 3

[Avitus1]

I've heard the movie wasn't very well written. I will check it out eventually but I'm not in a rush to see it. The more and more I've seen of this movie the more and more I've thought this movie is going to be fucked up.

[Mister Sinister]

Separate movie contininuities, yo. Origins is in its own continuity, disregarding the events of the other 3 movies.

[Rogue]

X-Men series are the worst Halle Berry movies ever, even worse than Perfect Stranger and Cat Woman. Obviously 20th century fox cannot afford that many oscar winners/nominees no more, so they just collected several mediocre actors/actresses and let them make a movie around Hugh Jackman who is the only known actor in that movie, Hugh Jackman still isn't a big movie star though. I mean Hugh Jackman < Halle Berry, though Hugh earns a little bit more than Halle does. Hugh Jackman hasn't even got a nomination for Oscar. :lol

i saw it already its pretty good, i wish ryan reynolds had more of a role though...

I just assumed origins takes place before XMen1

[batman2883]

Yeah it has cyclops in it as a boy, and it shows how wolverine was from like colonial times

[E20]

Deadpool/Weapon XI or whatever they call him in this movie looks like Vin Diesal on crack.

Why is Gambit in this movie and why is Cyclops in this movie?

Halle was a horrible storm.

Comic book movies need to quit going for the blockbusters by filling up these movies with big names who could give two shits about the Character/Comic history they are portraying.

The Oscar statue can go fuck itself :toast

What about this guy? (Guardian, aka James MacDonald Hudson)

After all, he found Wolverine in the Canadian tundra

Movie was alright, nothing special, Gambit had one good scene IMO. Schreiver was easily the best character in the movie he owned his role really well. Also stay for after the credits because fox put in 2 different ones

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Btw: Wolverine is, by far, the best comic book character created of all time.

pfpfpfFFFFfffFF

BOP
big time
on your noun and your qualifier

It's like Babe Ruth said in The Sandlot....Superman was not brave...he was fucking invincible.
Same principle applies here.

I love me some wolverine. But the man love for him was apparently old even in the 80's. Just read the fan mail of the mid 80's run of Uncanny.

Magneto, Juggernaut, and Nate Grey are more uber than Wolverine, just to name a few from the x-line.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

I thought Schreiber was the best character in the movie. It's too bad the first 3 X-Men movies made Sabrertooth out to be such a mindless ogre. He was a very cool character in the Wolverine movie...

WTF are you talking about Sabretooth was in the first 10 minutes of part 1 and a log fell on him and we never saw him again.






Ima puff me a blunt of some White Widow and see this tomorrow. I know I'm going to hate it, but at least the hype was not as overly homerific and fag-like as The Dark Knight NAMBLA campaign.

[Trainwreck2100]

also i'd like to add this movie was better than that shitbomb known as XMen 3

[BlackSwordsMan]

roger ebert said x3 was the best out of all of them.
what a shit head

[Sec24Row7]

So is it worth seeing?

[Jacob1983]

If you like X-Men, Hugh Jackman, and Wolverine then it's definitely worth seeing. However, if you're an X-Men hater then you should probably stay away. I saw the movie today and I enjoyed it. It was a good entertaining action movie. You learn a lot about Wolverine. Well, I learned a lot about him by watching this movie.

[J.T.]

The scene after the credits was worthless.

[TheProfessor]

So is it worth seeing?
Depends. If you thought X-3 was good, then sure, you'll probably be entertained. If you thought X-3 was excrement, then stay far away.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Yikes. I really want to see this, but I thought X-3 sucked hard.

[Trainwreck2100]

you mut have got the wolverine ending and not the deadpool ending

What the fuck? Some nerds better put that shit on YouTube because I'm not paying to see the movie again.

[Trainwreck2100]

i got the wolvie ending too, i had to see the other one on youtube and the quality sucked ass. Fuckin fox only did it so people would have to go multiple times

[FaithInOne]

The opening credits with the two in various wars was fucking Epic. Epic. That's how the rest of the movie should have been.

Pretty much got flat in the front after that.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

I feel sorry for anyone stupid enough to see this movie twice just for the alternate hidden scene.

[E20]

I saw the boot leg dvd a while back. It was okay.

[I Love Me Some Me]

Some of us grew up on the comic, we have a certain emotional investment in the movie, whether we want to or not.

[angrydude]

Don't know whats up with all the bad reviews.

Its not like anything with the X-men in it is going to win an oscar for best screenplay for deep emotional characterization scenes.

IMHO this was WAY better than first and 3rd x-men movies, and only a little worse than the 2nd x-men movie.

Despite what people are saying the plot was easy enough to follow unless you are an idiot I guess. Sure there were a couple things that didn't completely make sense but what comic movie out there doesn't have those problems.

Very entertaining and well worth going to the movies to go see.

Though I guess my only standard for comic book movies is that they just make a quality movie and not screw them up horribly. I wasn't expecting anything epic (though that intro was pretty amazing)

[jman3000]

It was meh. The CG in some scenes was laughable and they could have used Gambit more. Obviously Deadpool was gay, but I guess that's semi forgivable because it's a movie and not a huge series like comic books.

I'd give it a C... about what I expected.

It was a so-so entertaining action movie. You don't learn a thing about Wolverine because the story is way different then the comic and the facts are all wrong. Well, I learned nothing about him by watching this movie.

fixed

[Jacob1983]

You guys are acting like this movie is the worst movie of all time. It's a freakin action movie. It's not a stupid, Indie, artsy, Oscar movie.

[Mister Sinister]

Could have been better. Was worth the 10 bucks and the sleep deprivation. Additionally, someone got knifed at the midnight at my theater.

[hater]

shitty movie. almost as bad a sequel as the Silver Surfer

[fraga]

It was aight...nothing great...it was an okay action movie...and coming from someone who DOESN'T know the Deadpool history...I could still tell they f()cked up that character...and what was with him having no mouth...didn't quite understand that...

They covered his mouth cause styker said "You'd be the perfect soldier if we found a way to keep your mouth shut"

That being said it didn't last cause in his ending he says "oh shhhh"

[fraga]

It would have looked way cooler with the stitches...not that stupid skin grown over look...and what was up with his big f()ckin head...I think they missed a golden opportunity to make that "newly" formed character badass...and pretty much missed the mark...

This sums it up perfectly. Deadpool was a sweet character, but not enough of him and it was kind of weak the way they killed him off.


The fire explosion scene was so bad it almost ruined the movie.

[dirk4mvp]

gambit > all

[fraga]

I thought they did a pretty realistic job of Gambit...not too hokey or gimmicky...didn't go overboard with the "accent"...the look was right...the charging of items was right...the glowing red eyes...very nice...

[BlackSwordsMan]

did he have that cajun accent from the cartoons?

[Trainwreck2100]

It's not as thick and cheesy sounding.

[Mister Sinister]

It's not as thick and cheesy sounding.
Which is how it's meant to be. Flagrantly, ridiculously, excessively Cajun. That was my only complaint with Taylor Kitsch's Gambit, though.

[dirk4mvp]

And he looked 15

I'm surprised you're not salivating over him because of his stubble.

[fraga]

At that point in the movies timeline...he should've been around 10-15 yrs of age no??? And here's a new tidbit of info on Deadpool.

Finally saw it. 6 out of 10. Why don't the creators of these comic movies realize, that by re-creating the mythology behind the original books, they cut off any possibility of successfully executing a movie solely on a major crossover/storyline arc, like Maximum Carnage, Fatal Attractions, Onslaught, original Phoenix, Mutant Massacre, Dark Phoenix, INFERNO (my pick for potential greatest comic book movie story), etc.

I guess the X-men success officially ended with movie 2. There were only 3 groups of people in the theater today. Nine bucks a ticket will do that for ya.

God that deadpool thing is lame. He had every mutant power and still got his ass kicked? Lame.

Ironically, Van Wilder does seem to be the best actor to play the wise-cracking comic book character Deadpool. Can't believe I never realized what a good fit it was. Too bad they made him a total sloth-douche when he actually became deadpool. How's Van supposed to crack frat jokes when his mouth is sealed shut?

And how can the plausibly make a movie when they've given him god-like powers?

it was actually wasn't reynolds playing deadpool. Also maybe since the bonding process wasn't complete when he was activated he'll lose some powers

[whottt]

Just goes to show...I thought this was easily better than all the other X-Men movies, Spiderman movies, Batman movies...I thought it was better than Star Trek too.

What's funny is I don't even fucking like Wolverine as a character either,(I'm a Superman dude)...yet this is easily my favorite Superhero movie and the first movie of any kind that I have willingly gone to see twice in the theater since Raiders of the Lost Ark. In fact I'd go see this movie again too.

CBF you should do psilocybin when you see it :tu

Exactly dude. For the amount of money they put into these cookiecutter blockbusters, at least hire a comic nerd to make sure you stay true to the comics to ensure LONGEVITY as well as profitability.

Newsflash hollywood, your piece of shit adaptations did not create the greatness and fandom that is Marvel. Marvel did. Quit fucking with the system. These assholes have stagnated the comic book movie adaptation for decades.

Dude, can you imagine? They could do an INFERNO storyline, if they had set up the ages, and relationships properly. The wolverine/sabretooth showdown would be epic, probably get the movie a damn award.

I was thinking they could still do both Days of Future Past and Age of Apocalypse, because those are blatantly altered timelines, and therefore give the writers the pass to do the mythology over, regardless of their prior movie fuckups.

Age of Apocalypse would be amazing, but I think would only be done right if they do a regular X-men or X-Factor movie with Apocalypse. But, seeing as how they made Juggernaut a mutant dependent on momentum (god...) that was not related to Xavier, god only knows how fucking homosexual and feeble they would make THE Apocalypse....that would make any future hypothetical Age of Apocalypse movie dead before it started.
