On the other hand, I would like to see Logan in an eyepatch, mauling ninjas of the Hand while trying to woo Mariko Yashida.

She might not have the rustic sex appeal of Silver Fox, but, as my dear mother was so fond of saying, "you have to respect a woman who will cut off parts of her body to appease the Yakuza."
I agree.
As a long-time X-Men fan, I was THOROUGHLY disappointed in the cinematic version of Wolverine's Origin, as I'd hoped it would take on a bit more of the 2001 novel. But I guess if the producers are going to mess around with story lines (Dark Phoenix storyline, for example), the more "broken" side of Logan would make a much better plot for a big movie--unless, of course, they plan on bleeding this character out for 4 or 5 movies and not actually introduce his Japan Experience until 2018.

Ugh, they probably will...

this might be pretty cool. i think that we could see the Silver Samurai and maybe Lady Deathstrike. tho i think it would be cooler to see Joe Fixit and them trash a city during the fight

Why would a rugged specimen of americanness need samurai training? I doubt swords and hand swords are really the same thing.

Sorry. Origins was shit. If anything, the only good thing about a sequel is the fact that they will explain that copout ending of the first movie.

Nothing against another Wolverine movie, but shouldn't they be working on Cyclops: Origins, or Professor Xavier: Origins, or some other film on the Origins track?

My understanding was one character, one movie. Not "Milk Hugh Jackman's Fame for All It's Worth".
The strange thing is how he's such a mediocre actor most of the time, too. I mean, his best role was probably either Wolverine from X2, or Van Helsing. Now you just think about that for a second.

And people call Travolta overrated. At least he has Blow Out and Pulp Fiction.

"Yeah, that's a good scream."

He roars and stabs people with a PG-13 rating!
While smoking a cigar he lit with the sparks of rubbing a katana against his chest real fast.

what happened too the days when they made new and exciting super heroes rather than just pulled up the old ones from the much, brushed away the dirt, nailed them too some 2 by 4s until they could stand and said "here you go, pay us money!"
Sure the xmen movies were a good idea, there was so much material crying out to be used, but lets go somewhere new people...

do we really need a sequel...

hang on, we know what happens, so that means this isnt a sequel, its a prequel! that we know the ending too!

one more reason im not being jipped out of cash and go see this movie

the first one sucked, how was it successful?
$373 million worldwide box offive, that was how it was successful.

(*sigh*)

The freakin' thing barely had a script. It had fight sequences that occurred for literally no reason at all, when you omit "lack of faith in the audience's attention span" as a reason. Its most significant plot developments you could predict with a running time and a watch. I'd hope that if they do in fact do a sequel they'll do a better job, but if the market is willing to reward them for making one like the last one, why should they?
