Try explaining that to the suits who won't accept that average joe public won't enjoy an action film without someone who has blades grow out of his arms. It's just typical over the top blockbuster bullshit... that's what they do. Those guys have been ruining good movies since 1969 haha.

I just chose 1969 cause of those parody's that used to be on alot of tshirts and shit... Like "Beer getting ugly woman laid since 1969" it's always the same year for some reason.

It was ok. I'm glad I didn't have high expectations. It gave a good insight as to how Wolverine came about. Ironicly, I watched X-2 and 3 a little yesterday, and this movie ties in with the original 3 pretty well. Explains alot. 

I hated what they did to Deadpool too. He's one of the coolest charactors. I loved playing him in MUA just to see what he'd say next.

It's not a bad movie, but it's not even close to Iron Man or Spider Man calibur.

MUA 2 does look a lot better than the first one. I think its mostly becaues they are taking full advantage of the next gen consoles this time around instead of supporting last gen consoles as well as next gen, or current gen I guess its called now. Should be a fun game to get together with TMAers and play. I didnt much care for the first one but it was fun to play with other people.

Man, it sucked pretty bad. The special effects were inexcusably bad for a movie like this. Other than that, a lot of shit was stupid and didn't make any sense. Deadpool was good in the beginning and then they went and fucked him up. Gambit and Blob were both well done, character-wise, but more time for Gambit would've been nice.

I didn't realize that "Agent Zero" = Maverick (is it me or are they trying to change the identities of all 90s characters in the comics?) until I looked him up on Wikipedia earlier today. And who gives a shit that he's not Asian?

"Wolverine Game Impacted the Movie
Raven says its product affected Fox's film, for better or worse.
by IGN Staff

May 4, 2009 - The recently released X-Men Origins: Wolverine film, which grossed $87M over its opening weekend, was in some ways impacted by the development of its companion videogame. This is according to comments from Dan Vondrak, project lead at Raven Software for its multiplatform X-Men Origins: Wolverine game.

"We were writing our own scripts before the movie had a script, but then when we started getting drafts of the film script, there were influences there from our game," said Vondrak, via Geek.com.

He said he was aware of the stigma attached to most games tied to movies, and hoped things could be different with this game, since it was in production before Fox stepped in. "A lot of movie license games have sucked," said Vondrak. "They have been rushed and a lot of people just think slapping a license on a box is all they have to do. For us, Wolverine was a passion project. We approached this with, 'Wow, let's make the greatest Wolverine game ever' and then it just happened to become a movie game."

The impact of the game on the movie, according to Vondrak, went as far as determining which personalities were included and which weren't. "When we saw the trailers for the film there were certain characters – and I won't name names — that we think we're responsible for that dude getting in the game and getting in the movie," he said. "It's pretty cool to see these influences from game to film, although no one (from Fox) will admit that.""

from what I was told, that was supposed to be Maverick.. like I said tho, I watched a hacked up bootleg, and what I saw seemed to be more like Maverick than Agent Zero

when it comes to these Marvel movies, they've done some of the best casting I've ever seen.. like Xizor said, Robert Downey Jr. was just perfect for Tony Stark/Iron Man.. and so was Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool, him being a smartass and all. and Kelsey Grammer as Beast was just ingenious, 'cause he was absolutely perfect with his intellectual manner. and Patrick Stewart.. there was a guy I used to talk to online, and he always said that Patrick Stewart was hand-picked by God to play Professor X. it almost seems too obvious, 'cause he's like the comic character come to life... its just weird

Now Im all for The Avengers movie. God I hope they dont fuck that one up.

To me honestly the best Marvel movies have been the animated ones theyve been releasing the last couple years like The Ultimate Avengers one and two, Iron Man, and even the Hulk Vs movies were ok. Live action is cool and all but I think animation works best for a comic book setting.
