X-men Origins: Wolverine

*cqb101* · 04-01-2009, 09:20 AM

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.

*Ninjinister* · 04-01-2009, 09:35 AM

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?

The workprint doesn't have the re-shoots that were done in Vancouver a couple weeks back. Im not gonna DL it. There's no point when it's an unfinished product. But knowing Patrick Stewart is in it now makes me wanna see the movie even more!

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

Funny, yes. Fourth wall breaking *Burne Thompson voice* Nononono!

*Ninjinister* · 04-04-2009, 03:00 PM

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.

*Brodie* · 04-04-2009, 04:42 PM

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.

**Jester** · 04-04-2009, 04:51 PM

I think it trumps X-men 3.

*Brodie* · 04-04-2009, 05:01 PM

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.

**Jester** · 04-04-2009, 05:05 PM

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 can't see how a Wolverine fanatic could have loved this movie.

When your 12 years old any PG-13 action film is the "coolest movie" you've ever seen. If it's rated R then it's the "coolest movie in the entire universe", especially if boobs are present.

You sir have illicited the slow clap.

*Cipher* · 04-22-2009, 03:32 PM

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.

*Raph's Girl* · 05-01-2009, 03:32 PM

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....

Spoiler:

. I haven't laughed while watching a movie so much in a while. It's got alot of funny liners like:

Spoiler:

Things I liked:

Spoiler:

Total WTF moments:

Spoiler:

They should have kept the Chibi Storm cameo. Course they had another potential cameo if they thought about it.

*ZariusTwo* · 05-01-2009, 03:52 PM

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.

It's got alot of funny liners like: Spoiler: "Pa.. I think there's a naked man in the barn..." "Stryker finally got you to shut up..." "Koo Koo Ca Choo got screwed..." "Ok. They're dead now..." Things I liked: Spoiler: Scott and Emma team up Gambit Prof. Xavier! Wade's one liners Total WTF moments: Spoiler: WTF? Prof. Xavier was walking?! WTF?! Logan's from the Northwest Territories?! I thought he was from Alberta?! They should have kept the Chibi Storm cameo. Course they had another potential cameo if they thought about it. Spoiler: I was half expecting Black Panther to show up! They used Vibranium to make Adamantium! They never named it but come on... a sacred rock from the sky in Africa?? Pft. __________________
