How about the comic book writer that actually penned the part that the movie is about? Or anyone who penned for Marvel. You got Joss Wheadon on The Avengers movie, so why not continue with good ideas like that?

I dont want another situation like...."Deadpool" (Ryan Reynolds played pre-Deadpool Wade spot on if you ask me, it was the abomination calling itself Deadpool that was just inexcusable)

When you have to reboot a series this many times, you should probably just reinstall its OS and replace any obsolete hardware.

Best director for the job? Michael Bay.

- Every time Wolverine stabs an enemy, the enemy explodes.
- Every time Wolverine heals from an apparently deadly injury, the background explodes.
- Every time Wolverine is Canadian, everything explodes. Into bacon.

And the U.S. Marine Corps will be involved for some reason.

Wait, 'rebooting' what? The last film that was already an origin story? Is this a continuation from the origin story or not? It confuses me when people reboot their reboots. See: Spider-Man.

Couldn't care less.... The X-Men movies completely messed up the franchise for me!
I remember thinking: "Oh boy, finally! An X-Men movie!" Then I watched It, and was disappointed to no end. The storyline was screwed, the costumes were dumb, the characters weren't originals....

And when it came to Wolverine origins, you can say what you will. The real Wolverine's claws only emerged after the adamantium infusion. He never had bone claws!

And yea, I too am sick of the reboot concept. Sure, It's nice for a fresh new audience, and The new Batman movies were batawesome, but I liked the original comics better (from the Gold- to the Bronze age. Though there are some modern age ones that are good too.)

The Superman reboot sucked too. Loise lane can't have Superman's baby (see the Mallrats explanation on this.)

How about we don't make a new Wolverine movie? How about we just stop wiping our ass with the source material? And then give the rights back to Marvel? How about that Fox?

screw wolverine, when are we getting an honest to goodness Deadpool movie?
100% Agreement.

You get a cookie, but I don't have any. So make one, now.
Seriously, guys? The only character who came out of the Origins movie in a worse way than Wolverine was Deadpool. Until Fox loses the movie rights, I hope they keep Deadpool locked away in a box so they can't damage him any further.

Also, HULK SMASH COOKIE!!!!

The drunk guy shuffling through the carpark outside my flat the other night was using english - he didn't make any sense either. Don't worry though, I know you're just trying to sound clever. You'll soon get over it.
Indeed, sounding clever is part of what makes a man a man, and using English is key.

I couldn't help notice you didn't point out what part of my post you didn't get, which hurt my feelings because my offer to explain really was quite genuine. I do understand that the power of saying "you don't make sense" certainly does rush to the head quite quickly -- I mean, look at Fox News -- but it would be nice to see my generosity put to use. :'(
Both o' ya... put down the drunks and stop it, yuh bottles! *HIC*

You were only aiming to sound clever? More's the pity. Anyway, before I make like Colonel Gaddafi and call a "ceasefire", if you want to see your generosity put to good use, there are many better ways to do so than on an online form. Perhaps you could donate to a charity, or even get involved in a community project? It'll give you a tremendous sense of wellbeing.

You're doing one of the following:

1) You're assuming I don't donate time or money to charities or other worthy causes. I challenge you to back up this with hard evidence, because I have donated and I'm reasonably certain I wasn't delusional.

2) You're asserting that because you donate, you're somehow better than me. Which is pretty damn despicable.

3) Grasping at non-existent straws.

4) All of the above.

MICHAEL BAY!!!!
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!!!

Actually, I regret saying that, even in jest because I thought the Kitty Pride and Wolverine mini-series was freakin' awesome, so let's stick to sensible choices and fer chrissakes make it a good movie.....

Hmmm, a director for a character that needs a hard R rating. I can only think of Zak Snyder, because he's proven that not only will he respect the source material (300 and Watchmen) but he can make it as bloody as it needs to be, which Wolverine needs to be because let's face it, he guts people for a living then chomps on a cigar and tries to seduce redheads with his hair body.
I was thinking the exact same thing. Zack Snyder would be perfect for this but he is already working on the Superman Reboot for DC so I am not so sure if he would have time to Direct it.
