I hope he uses the classic costume!That's a must on a Wolverine Movie!
StrangerX - 7/30/2012, 9:46 AM
I wouldn't even mind if he had the brown and gold costume without the mask
RorMachine - 7/30/2012, 9:47 AM

Anthrax - 7/30/2012, 9:48 AM

YOUNGBL00D - 7/30/2012, 10:01 AM
No video is showing for me
GoILL - 7/30/2012, 10:10 AM
Man I want this film to be good, was so disappointed in Origins.
fosterine - 7/30/2012, 10:11 AM
Its finally official. Its happening. Anyone have any guesses of what story a japanese POW camp might be from? Or did they just make that up.
Maxi91291 - 7/30/2012, 10:14 AM
im so happy that Hugh is pumped for this but ... his 9am meal ? really?
95 - 7/30/2012, 10:18 AM
I don't really want to support 20th Century Fox's X-Men adaptations — I really didn't like any of their previous attempts. But this film actually sounds promising.
GUNSMITH - 7/30/2012, 10:23 AM
THE COSTUME...WE NEED THE COSTUME.

Zuriel - 7/30/2012, 10:23 AM
What would you prefer, yellow spandex?
write33 - 7/30/2012, 10:23 AM
COSTUME!!!!!!!!

(ya know. Fox and Mr. Jackman....please?)
fosterine - 7/30/2012, 10:24 AM
ok cool, so it sounds as if they are going to use the limited series "logan" for the POW scene. cool, thats what i was thinking. I really liked that story too.
Linta - 7/30/2012, 10:25 AM
hoping for the best on this movie
hope420 - 7/30/2012, 10:27 AM
I just hope Jackman bulked up for this one. He's a big guy but his height makes him look like Clint Eastwood as Wolverine.
Maxi91291 - 7/30/2012, 10:27 AM
COSTUME !!!
Maxi91291 - 7/30/2012, 10:38 AM
Let us not forget why Wolverine wasnt Wolverine in X-men origins ... Of course Im talking about his hair :D ... let us see that Wolverine look in this one
CharlesTheIncredible - 7/30/2012, 11:06 AM
wait that was his SECOND meal? Jeez how early does he have to wake up for shooting?
marcuskiner - 7/30/2012, 11:13 AM
HUGE X-men fan, but no bad costume, and it better be R-rated!

I know it won't, but I can dream.
Morpheus82 - 7/30/2012, 11:16 AM
I'm already excited the set photo and video looks great, but i wish to see more his rage and anger more in action and Liev schreiber doing a Sabertooth Cameo.
TheBeard - 7/30/2012, 11:21 AM
glad it's started filming, and i think we deserve a Deadpool cameo. The real Deadpool not that god awful abomination from origins. A Liev schreiber sabretooth cameo would be sweet too.
Afro - 7/30/2012, 11:27 AM
I hope he bulked up and also learned how to hunch over to make himself look a little shorter. A truly good movie would be rated R but since they maid him such a pop corn film character with the X-Men movies it won't be R rated. Silver Samurai on the other hand should have the original costume can't wait to see that concept art.
j0hnb1aze - 7/30/2012, 11:37 AM
@IncredibleChuck

I'm assuming he is eating 6-8 small(ish) meals per day. That being said, I bet he ate meal 1 at 6, then eats every 3 hours.

Stumblin - 7/30/2012, 11:38 AM
I don't even think I'm going to waste my time on this movie.
Greengo - 7/30/2012, 11:39 AM
Excited this is finally happening.

Just hope it's not another disappointment.
Vandal - 7/30/2012, 12:00 PM
Please tell me this finally will be Hugh Jackman's last time ruining Wolverine. I don't know how he's tricked so many people into thinking that he's so great for this role.
jimoakley666 - 7/30/2012, 12:08 PM
Oh [frick] off the bitches who want the gay comic costume. Never gonna happen let go and stop mewling.

@Stumblin - Yet you'll waste your time trolling on the talkbacks?
sKeemAn - 7/30/2012, 12:25 PM
Where my Wolvinites?? This better be a good movie or we will get u bub
Luminus - 7/30/2012, 12:36 PM
@GUNSMITH: I saw that fan film. That cowl, though excellent quality, still looks ridiculous.
CapFan79 - 7/30/2012, 12:46 PM
I could see him having a samurai style wolverine mask similar to the comic but that's about all I could hope for. Would by nice to have the brown and yellow I grew up on. I'd love it if they did "Days of Future Past" and were able to have home and some other cast from both series merge for the alternate timeline.
GUNSMITH - 7/30/2012, 12:50 PM
HAVENT SEE THE FAN FILM BUT I LIKE THE COWL..
Stumblin - 7/30/2012, 12:56 PM
@jimoakley666, what can I not express my opinion? Oh! I didn't realize only positive opinions were allowed, my bad. I must have missed the fine print somewhere.

So how am I trolling? Because I expressed a negative thought about something? You should look up trolling in the dictionary because I think you might be a moron. Also, what the hell is a talkback?
GUNSMITH - 7/30/2012, 12:57 PM
NICE OUTFITS..(ALL)
Stumblin - 7/30/2012, 1:05 PM
@GUNSMITH, that was pretty sweet fan made movie, damn impressive.
IIIAdamantiumIII - 7/30/2012, 1:30 PM
he better wear HIS GODDAMN SUIT AND MASK
IIIAdamantiumIII - 7/30/2012, 1:35 PM
DEAR MR JACKMAN

WEAR THE FREAKING MASK IN THIS FILM , I don't care if you run around naked in bezerker mode for half the film , JUST DO IT WHILE WEARING THE MASK!
GUNSMITH - 7/30/2012, 2:01 PM
SINGER KILLED THE MASK...HE NEEDS THE DAMN MASK...GENERATIONS OF WOLVERINE WITH A MASK ITS AN ICONIC THING.
GUNSMITH - 7/30/2012, 2:03 PM
OF COURSE NO YELLOW SPANDEX...BATMAN HAD THAT LOOK BUT THEY MADE ADJUSTMENTS AND MADE IT BETTER WHILE STILL RETAINING THE LOOK OF THE COMICBOOK.
jimoakley666 - 7/30/2012, 2:18 PM
@Stumblin - You are a tit. Trolling isn't in the dictionary for a start.

Next, I may point out that I didn't say you couldn't have your opinion at all. I'm just growing a bit weary of others bringing up the costume issue on EVERY [frick]ING WOLVERINE THREAD.

Also, I said you were trolling because you didn't actually express anything, not an opinion on the film nor any bit of information or emotion other than a glib self important one liner in the fashion of a troll.

Also, talkback is pretty much 'what it says on the tin'. People... talking back. In a message board... A comments section... you know? It's not [frick]ing rocket science, genius.
jimoakley666 - 7/30/2012, 2:20 PM
@GUNSMITH - That movie and the outfits featured look terrible. They looked like they were bought from a fancy dress show and I have to agree with MarvelWeiner, why the [frick] does Wolverine need a mask? There is no point, there never was a point and never will be as far as I can see.
Stumblin - 7/30/2012, 2:27 PM
@jimoakley666, first off, you're an idiot because trolling is in the dictionary: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/troll
scroll down and you'll see.

I did express something, I said I will not be wasting my time on this movie, and that was my opinion on the matter.

Sorry if I needed clarification on a word that didn't make sense in your comment see here: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/talkback?s=t&ld=1064

So again, you're dumb.
bestintheworld - 7/30/2012, 2:37 PM
I had all intentions of abandoning this site since TDKR has been released; that movie was the only reason I came here . But Wolverine is the only other CB character outside of Batman that I actually care about. I had no clue they were even making this movie. I'm pumped, Wolverine is a badass. What would you guys say is the best Wolverine story out there?
jimoakley666 - 7/30/2012, 2:47 PM
@Stumblin - Oooow! Look at you getting all menstrual.

It's not in the proper dictionary. The Oxford English Dictionary. I'll bet that twaddle you linked is the type of dictionary that spells colour without a 'u' or lists it as some odd little Engish quirk, "ho ho, bless them and their odd ways of using their own language".

Also, saying you are doing something or not is not expressing an emotion or opinion. I'm sure I'll be going for a shit later on, but it's not a state of mind. Equally, you wouldn't just pop my head into a restaurant, declare that I'll be going for said shit, turn heel and piss off. People would think you were a bit soft in the head.

But seriously. You really must have a fragile little ego to be calling people all these names because they disagree with you or call for a little in the way of online manners. Bit childish, isn't it?
jimoakley666 - 7/30/2012, 3:02 PM
@BestInTheWorld - I don't know about the best, that's rather subjective.

But some of my personal favourite Wolverine 'featured' stories include The Dark Phoenix Saga, Larry Hama & Mark Silvestri's Wolverine run from the early 90's, Morrison's New X-Men, Mark Millar's Enemy Of The State and the two stories that this movie is based upon, The Wolverine mini by Claremont and Frank Millar & Uncanny X-Men 172-173.

People always swear by Old Man Logan but I've not read it yet.

And there is always the holy grail, Weapon X by Barry Windsor Smith.
KryptoniteSmoker - 7/30/2012, 3:09 PM
Pumped. Can't wait. I'm ok with the mask and uniform look or the leather jacket and jeans or traditional japanese garb reflecting where he is and (hopefully) the training he is experiencing. :D
TheLokey1 - 7/30/2012, 3:24 PM
I really hope wolverine doesn't get nuked, that's entering some Indiana jones crystal skull levels of ridiculous.
Zarog - 7/30/2012, 4:39 PM
@puyguy Yeah......Other than First Class what exactly was good in their most recent outings? You said X-Men, so you're saying you actually enjoyed Origins: Wolverine and The Last Stand? You must not have actually meant it otherwise that would make you a [frick]ing idiot, oh....... wait........ you are. Can we just ban this POS troll?
Stumblin - 7/30/2012, 8:38 PM
@jimoakley666, actually I'm just returning your adorable animosity. First let me clarify that trolling is also in http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/american_english/troll--2?region=us&q=trolling
Probably should have looked that up first huh?

I did express my emotional opinion, I said I wont waste my time. What does that mean? I don't care for it, I have no intent on watching it because I feel it will be bad, the first one was dumb, etc, etc. Do I need to break it down anymore for ya?

You then attacked me calling me a troll just because I simply stated I wouldn't watch the movie. So I responded to your misconception of me "trolling" which led to you being called dumb and a moron because so far you haven't proven me differently. Though I will apologize, I shouldn't have picked on you.

But I digress, I think you and I spent a lot of time together in the web world. It was fun, really it was. I hate to tell you, but, there is someone else and I have to leave you...I love you jimoakley666...don't ever change :)
