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... | | Read Entire Entry |

| Posted by: FireCaptain4 at August 20, 2008, 9:18 pm | | Topic: Wolverine Forum: JoBlo | | 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. | | Static Link |

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. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: muttly69 at August 20, 2008, 10:05 am | | Topic: Wolverine Forum: JoBlo | | 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. | | Static Link |

| Posted by: rilocay at August 5, 2008, 7:27 am | | Topic: Wolverine Forum: JoBlo | | 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. | | Static Link |

| Posted by: rilocay at August 5, 2008, 3:55 am | | Topic: Wolverine Forum: JoBlo | | 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. | | Static Link |

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. | | Static Link |
