X-men Origins: Wolverine
I'm sure everybody knows this by now, but a work print of the new Wolverine film has leaked online - a full month before its release. I'm in the process of downloading it now (don't ask me for any links). I need to see how badly they ****ed up Deadpool.
|
Ah, you got tricked into downloading a RickRoll, didn't you? April Fool's!
(Seriously, let us know how it went) |
yeah, I just saw it and I must admit that it was better than I thought it would be. as mentioned above, the film was a work print so most of the CG effects werent finished yet. Deadpool was a major disappointment but the rest of the movie was good. the story was pretty interesting and Patrick Stewart makes a cameo near the end. and as usual theres a extra scene after the credits finish, it's nothing special, but if you're one of those people that doesn't watch the end credits then you'll miss it. Id post a link but I don't think that Im allowed to post movie links even if it's a flash link.

I don't get why anyone would download this. If you go through the trouble of downloading it you're obviously anticipating it. Why ruin the movie by downloading a non polished copy and then watch it on your 21" screen?

Is Wade at least, y'know, Wade, in this? Funny, fourth wall breaking, and the like?

Argh. That's disappointing. I expected him to say something like "Y'know I might be getting spinoff" or make some reference to the other three movies, or somesuch.
|
Someone had downloaded it at school, and I watched it on a pretty big tv. The quality was decent. But no amount of CGI will save this movie.
Its not The Spirit-bad, but it isnt very good. |
I think it trumps X-men 3.
|
I feel like even though there was a TON of characters and cameos in X3, I feel like they gave more characters more time in that film than they did for characters they're touting in this movie. Like they essentially glaze over everyone BUT Wolverine.
|
Oddly, I felt the exact opposite way, I felt that with fewer characters there was a bit more given to this cast...but to each their own.
|
i personally loved it. but i am the biggest fanatic of wolverine so ima be pretty biased lol. i liked it though. im not at all happy at what they did with deadpool but it fits into the story.:ohwell:

This film lost my ticket when the "bad-ass" one liner they picked to end the trailer was "I'll try cutting your head off and see if that works."
I know you're writing an action movie, but c'mon. Have a little bit of self-respect. |
Welp. I've seen the Wolverine movie and I actually like it! There's a couple WTF moments where Emma Frost and "Deadpool" are concerned. They actually kinda gave Emma a background....

Total WTF moments: Spoiler:
They should have kept the Chibi Storm cameo. Course they had another potential cameo if they thought about it. Spoiler:

God what a peice of s*it. I'm glad the general consensus is pretty much against this movie.
Marvel are well known for not taking their time with some movies...they definatly rushed this nonsense out. Jackman completly forgot this was a prequel and acted more half-heartedly in the role than he did in X-Men 3. As such, I didnt care at all for what he was doing. The character inaccuracies, appauling acting, ludicrous plot contrivences, the wasting of a good character like Deadpool, and the unnecersary cameos all but make one ask why they didnt just botheh having Logan assemble a new team for himself and progress his story rather than lazily go through the motions. This is no masterpeice folks. This is "X-Men for Dummies", it's for noone with any real respect for the character or the franchise. |
Okay, I'm going to keep this post extremely short. I've made my point known on other boards, but they happen to be very lenient with the things you can say.
All I can is what they did to Deadpool was inexcusable. What a horrible f***ing joke of a movie this is. In my rants on other forums, I had a long list of complaints not only from a comic fanboy side, but from a movie critic side as well, but like I said, I'm keeping this post short. Movie sucked, I should've seen the workprint so I could've at least saved my money; garbage retelling to an already great story. Butchered characters and histories. The movie took a complete piss on the source material and the readers of that material. If you don't care about it depicting the source material accurately and are just in it for the action, go for it. You'll enjoy it. If you came to see your beloved characters that you've grown up on come to life, look elsewhere cuz you won't find it here. |

I haven't seen this movie yet. I am not setting my hopes too high. So far, the best thing to come out of this movie was encouraging the long overdue release of the X-Men animated series. I will admit, I am not too knowledgeable about Deadpool, nor do I know his history, other than him being badly disfigured and being a smartass assassin. Although I doubt they can do as much damage to his character as X-Men 3 did to Cyclops, Professor X and Jean Grey. But I can't say for certain until I see it.

Did they give him the mutant ability to turn into a butterfly in the movie or what? :| I don't know Deadpool's backstory from the comics so if they made any major changes, I don't think that I would notice them (unless it's something really screwed up.....like them trying to say he is really the father of Wolverine or something). I have the 4 issue Deadpool comic mini-series somewhere....perhaps I should re-read them? It has been MANY years and I barely remember them.

Well, I went this afternoon and I liked it. Although, and please excuse me for my "girly" moment, I think that is mainly due to Hugh Jackman being so freakin' hot and not the actual movie. But as much as that man makes me drool, I still can't say I loved it. There were some great scenes and funny lines though.

Uh... Deadpool does have a healing factor. And teleportation (though that's because of a device and not a power).
|
I haven't read the comics in a while, so maybe someone can double check this for me: Dead Pool never had the power to teleport, it was thanks to a belt he wore.
...And I just reread Ninjinister's post, so yeah... the belt. |
I liked it. It was fun to watch. Story wasn't anything to write home about, but it was a nice way to pace two hours. Then again, I was never terribly familiar with some of the characters, so I could understand why some might be pissed.

Since we're going on things to complain about:
Spoiler:
These are just complaints from a comic fanboy perspective. I haven't even gone in on this movie from a film critic's perspective yet. |
this one's awesome
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1R5PhReY5k what they done to deadpool in the movie sucks (of what eve heard and read) but I'm gonna see this movie. I hardly think they can screw deadpool like they did with nightcrawler |

I saw the movie last night, and Im probably one of the few who isnt going to bitch about deadpool. I kind of like what they did with him, but he ended up being a plot bitch in more ways then one.
It was a fun movie, with some heart to it. Not much mind you, but the tension between Logan and Victor defiently was fun to watch through the film. Some of there fights were the best of the whole film, compared to the anticlimatic end fight scene. Which really felt cheap. The Blob scene was funny as hell, probably my favorite scene of the film. I guess this movie gets a 3/5 from me. Kept me interested all the way through, but some glaring mistakes really kept me from really getting into it like I would have like to. |
Ok in the comics the team featured somewhat in the movie was Team X...only instead of Blob there was a fellow named Mastadon and instead of Silver Fox being on the team she was replaced by Wade Wilson and Chris Bradley.
Comix Team X: Logan, Sabertooh, Mastadon, Maverick, Kestrel, and SilverFox Movie: Logan, Sabertooth, Agent Zero (aka Maverick)*Note: In the comics he's German*, Kestrel/John Raith (the teleporter), Wade Wilson, Blob, Chris Bradley (aka Bolt aka Maverick II) Spoiler:
