Next Wolverine Movie Throwing Continuity Out the Window

[The Rockerfly]

No
We want a film about Deadpool
Wolverine just has rage issues, that is all

 

[Arsen]

You can't please the nerds of the internet. Regardless of how well made, acceptable, accomodating, the movie is...they won't give a shit. The actor is always wrong (this was said of Hugh Jackman many years ago when the first movie even came out), it doesn't follow the "story" of the graphic novel they'd die for, it isn't the script THEY wrote out of sheer love and consideration for the franchise...

I could go on, but let's face it: They don't accept the facts of reality when it comes to movie making. Want to know why I didn't see Scott Pilgrim? It looked geeky damnit.

I find it suspect a man named "Logan" is writing about "Wolverine".

Your cover is blown!

Oh my god, why do nerds rage about continuity when it's about movie? When the comics themselves do different universes, story lines, and reboots for the comics I don't hear any raging. How many times has each X-man died in the comics? Jean Grey's done it more than 20 times.

20 Jean Grey Deaths

The the character whose alter ego is a Phoenix dies multiple times...and comes back multiple times.

I'm uh...I'm not really offended?

Why not pick any super villain ever who wasn't symbolized by an ancient creature that died and was reborn. There are hundreds of them at least.

Well, this news surprises approximately no one. Seriously, what the fuck is so damn fascinating about Wolverine that he gets so much more screen attention than any mutant with a legitimately interesting backstory?

Because he's got claws for hands, obviously.

Oh, good, it looks like Wolverine is finally getting the attention he deserves.

This is a November Fool's joke, right?

 

[mjc0961]

So did they see The Legend of Zelda series and say "Hey, I bet we can make a continuity that's just as fucked up as that!"?

That has to be one of maybe 5 good lines he's ever gotten, anywhere. (I wish Deadpool putting a sign on his back saying "Snikt me!" counted, though)

I stuck with Heroes to the end

That must have hurt, with all the shitty seasons in between the first and last. At some point i gave up and just started watching it for Kristen Bell. I never forgave Sylar for pointlessly killing her.

OT: I don't care, as long as there's more mutant action, i could care less what they do with the story. I watch X-men movies for the special effects and the fighting. (and the jet)

 

[VondeVon]

...A movie about an affair with some chick and her family get angry at him?

Wow. If I were any more disinterested, I might actually keel over.

 

[Desworks]

Why don't they forget about Wolverine for a while and make a Gambit movie instead?

Wolverine keeps making them money, because everyone loves Wolverine. Personally, I blame the fact that most of the moviegoers that are watching these movies grew up during the Dark Age of comics. They all go for the anti hero types, because that's what they grew up with.

Or actually finish the Avengers movie?

The Avengers movie is till on track, and is completely unrelated to any X-men films. 20th Century Fox hold the X-men rights, just like Sony hold the Spiderman rights. They don't lose the rights as long as they keep using them from time to time, and so they keep making movies that use these characters. Should the movie rights ever revert back to Marvel Studios, we might see Spidy and those wacky mutants join up with Iron Man, Thor, the Hulk and Cappy for fun times in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. We can dream anyway.

Hell, I'd settle for a movie about Angel at this point. Anybody except Wolverine.

Also, you don't mean this. No-one wants to see an Angel film.

 

[Zenn3k]

I can't be any worse than Origins was...god that movie was terrible.

 

[Aurgelmir]

So much for the continuity song from I'm a Marvel and I'm a DC.

Actually... it is EXACTLY like the song...

Well, from a cursory glance at the comics over the years, it seems like having 9 different x-men continuities seems to make a lot of sense.

How far back are you going? Because honestly there aren't that many continuities in the X-men. There are a lot of shit that happens, but in general there is ONE continuity, with some stories going elsewhere. There was the Age of Apocalypse and House of M events, but for them to be a continuity they would have to continue beyond the event, which they didn't really do.

That said, Marvel need to trim down the 1000 different X series they got going.

Yellow spandex please.

Oh, I SO agree with you... except the Japan story of Wolverine is probably the one place it doesn't fit.


All in all I wish they would just stop making crap movies about a boring character, and start making movies about more interesting ones.

Hell, if they needed wolverine there, why not make an X-23 movie?

Better yet. How about not fucking up the source material first?

 

[MelasZepheos_v1legacy]

Maybe if you want to make a movie out of continuity you should stop including the SAME BLOODY ACTOR!

Always assume that the majority of your target audience are idiots who won't get that you're trying to make a movie out of conitnuity, especially given that you're included the same person they've seen in all other continuities so far.

 

[HobbesMkii]

Oh, Darren, you always know what to say to make me feel warm inside. Although, part of me finds it hilarious that they gave the guy who did Requiem for a Dream a movie about one of the X-Men.

 

[matrix3509]

Screw Wolverine, I want a Cyclops movie.

P.S. Thanks

Screw Wolverine and Cyclops. I want a Colossus movie. I can't stand the way they butt-fucked Colossus in X-2.

P.S. This is fun!

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

"meatier" and more "thought-provoking"

...

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

*calms down*

You don't use "meatier" and "thought-provoking" to describe Wolverine. This is the guy who has blades come out of his fists when he gets impatient. He gets impatient a lot.

*sigh*

I like continuity. Just don't ruin Wolverine Darren, he's a symbol of Canada.

 

[fulano]

I like the whole non continuity thing. It's weird and came out of left field, and it makes no sense: kinda like wolvie's own memories.
