Am I the only one that feels like this is either going to be 100 kinds of awesome or 100 kinds of suck, but not fall anywhere in-between?

imo, if the war scenes are more than just action scene montages, this film will be great.

yeah this will def. not top the first two x-films. are you kidding. this has potential but really has some serioius flaws. too many mutants for the sake of it ala spidey 3 and x3 as mentioned by inertia. they should’ve just had deadpool, gambit, and sabretooth and that’s it. also don’t get me started on the helicopter scene and the posing in the movie - jla smallvile episode anyone? but oh well. i’m still holding out hope cuz of what’s said in the trailer and the victor/logan stuff. the revenge part is so wolverine.

Why is Cyclops in this movie?
This is screaming X-3 in regards to how many people they can shove into this. At some point it won’t be about Wolverine anymore. It’s almost as if they’re trying to see how many spin-offs they can make off of this movie.

Typical Fox nonsense.

Um…

So is this a reboot? Are we supposed to forget that Sabretooth was in the first X-Men movie?

I know, I know. I should just enjoy the movie and STFU, but I’m a geek and I love an evil little word called “continuity”…

@ Onestar: It’s supposed to be a prequel, and I’d guess that this movie will end with both Wolverine and Sabretooth being mindwiped so that they forget about eachother entirely, thus not knowing eachother by the time of the first X-Men movie many years later.

@ Colby: Yes, it was stated a while back that Cyclops would appear as a child, and be a Weapon X captive along with some other young mutants (Storm is supposed to appear as a child as well). I don’t know why they’re doing this, besides fan-pleasing I guess.

I don’t understand why Cyclops and Storm would be in the movie. If that’s they case they should have known Wolverine in the first X-Men movie. Only thing that would make sense is that for whatever reasons, everyone had their minds wiped. We know that Professor X isn’t above it because he repressed the Phoenix and wiped Jean’s mind. And in the comics he erased Scott’s memories of Vulcan. Either way, it’s dumb way to cram more mutants in the movie.

My god, that first one is freaking awful. AHAHAHA!

I think this looks great. And we have no idea if Cyclops or Storm will even interact with Wolverine in the film, so maybe we should hold off on the “OH MY GOD THIS IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE PRIOR FILMS!!!” panic attacks for now. I do hope this film treats Cyclops with some respect and not like the little bitch the three x-men films did.

And how lucky is that kid playing a young Logan, to be that age as an actor and be able to play the ultimate bad-ass superhero?

*strokes chin* looks like the Toad will be showing up as well!

Personally, I don’t mind the cameos. If they add to the story, fantastic.

@Mark: this is a movie not a comic book. so “Continuity” does exsist Dumbass!! (Just backing you up Onestar)

All I thought as I kept watching the trailers was:

I wonder what kind of Brinks truck backed up in Paul Jenkins’s backyard?

Quesada did say “We’ve got to do the origin before Hollywood does.”

It paid off big time.

After viewing these 3 clips, It’s sad I do not want to see this for Wolverine.

Bring on Deadpool and give Ryan Reynolds his own spin-off. I’m not even a ‘Pool fan but he was the best thing in all three clips.

I can’t fault Hugh (since he’s NOT in the Origin crap flashbacks), but this movie looks like it’s not sure what it wants to be Wolverine’s history or Wolverine: agent of Weapon X.

Considering some of the footage is repeated throughout the 3 clips doesn’t help much either.

Hopefully I’ll be proven wrong, but my enthusiasm for this has seriously waned as a result of these clips.

Welcome to the internet, Venom Melendez. If we “fanboys” didn’t have the ‘net to gripe about something, we would have invented something damn close enough just for that purpose alone.

SgtKosher - Marvel actually was NOT happy Fox went with the Origins storyline and Kevin Feige and Marvel Entertainment have taken their name off the film. Watch for their absence during the credits (though I think legally they have to use the logo with the comic pages flipping behind it). Otherwise there will be a distinct lack of Marvel support for this.

@KGB. Good point about Jackman looking older than he did 10 years ago. Hopefully I will be able to use my “suspension of disbelief” powers as I watch this fictional story of a mutant superhero.

Honestly, I will never understand how someone can suspend disbelief enough to buy into these characters with impossible powers doing impossible things, but then complain about how he can’t understand how they expect him to believe this is the same character from a similar film nine years ago. We’re not talking about Jackman at 20 and then Jackman at 50 pretending he hasn’t aged. It’s only been nine years! Sure he looks a little older, but unless you’re watching the two films side by side is it really going to bother you that much? Geez just buy into it and have fun with the film. Life’s too short - there have to be better things to devote your energy towards.

And yes, I realize that life is also too short to respond to negative, bitter fans prejudging films three months before they are released.

Or it could have to do with the 35th anniversary of Wolvie’s first appearance.
