X-Men Origins: Wolverine - The Orange Mane

TheReverend · 12-31-2008, 02:51 PM

How bad ass does this movie look?

I'm curious as to how they're going to fit Gambit into his origin story... but it's cool enough that they're finally putting Gambit in.

...and the BEST part. Deadpool is in.

I was never into the X-men as a kid (liked Robotech) but I have enjoyed some of the current movies. I will certainly make time to see this one......

Robotech pwned.

Cyclones ftw, even though they were weaksauce!

I am glad they are including Gambit. I can't wait to see this.

Same here.

Not really a fan of Gambit but Im intrigued to find out how old Wolverine really is.

That Humvee Indo onto the Huey is pretty gay though.

Yeah, maybe, but as a great wise a%% once said, "I would hit it." And I would see the movie too.

Misses Stout and I were laughing hysterically in the theater when that part came on. Everything else about this preview looked top notch, then that part just seemed so terribly corny it was a laugh riot.

I am excited about this movie, but I will have to close my eyes when this part is coming up.

Cant Wait For It

Looks cool, might check it out.

Northman · 01-02-2009, 09:37 AM

Looking forward to this movie. I think its cooler that Gambit is being played by the guy who did Hitman who i like as an actor as well.

Inkana7 · 01-18-2009, 10:37 AM

I love Deadpool. I'd love it if they had Maverick in the plot too.

Okay, okay, epic fail on the casting.

Maverick's in the movie as Agent Zero... he's the asian dude that shoots him in the trailer. Maverick an Asian? WTF?

Beantown Bronco · 02-19-2009, 07:23 AM

Speaking of casting, I was just reading today that Russell Crowe was originally offered the part of Wolverine back when they were casting the first XMen movie......but he wanted waaaaay too much money.

Hugh Jackman was actually their 3rd choice.

I read the same.

Funny how none of the X-Men movies were even that good, but that choice completely sent their careers in opposite directions.

Well, the Germans did bomb Pearl Harbor after all.

Just watched this movie yesterday. My friend downloaded a leaked version of it from a torrent site. It was a regular digital copy, not recorded with a camcorder or anything. The only thing was that it was about 90% completed, meaning they hadn't put in all the CGI yet (the movie itself was complete). So some of the more CGI-heavy scenes had really basic graphics in place of how it will look when completed.

I didn't want to ruin it for myself, but I was visiting for the weekend so I had no choice! Anyway, I give it 3 stars out of 5. Not as good as the regular X-Men movies. And two weird things stuck out for me. Don't worry, these aren't really spoilers...you find them both out in the first 5 minutes:

Wolverine was born with claws. I was always under the impression that Stryker put them in Wolverine as shown in X2, but I guess in some versions of the comics, he was born with them. The other weird thing was that this movie had Wolverine and Sabretooth as brothers. WTF?

I haven't read comics in over a decade, so can someone clarify something?

Didn't Wolverine kill his own father? Or was it Sabertooth? And was Silver Fox just an implanted memory, or real?

From what I understand it was Wolverine's family's groundskeeper who kills Wolverine's father. This event leads to Wolverine's mutant powers(bone claws) being activated, where he kills the groundskeeper and injurs his son, a former friend, who becomes Sabertooth. He then runs away and gains the nickname "Wolverine" in a mining camp or something before being recruited for Weapon X.
