The Wolverine and Magneto thread
Now that X3: The Last Stand has gone on to become one of summer's biggest blockbusters, plus its getting released on DVD very very soon, the next in Marvel's X-men connection series is the highly waited and much anticipated "Wolverine", due to be released sometime in 2008.
This will be Wolverine's solo movie, where they trace out his origins and how he became Wolverine in the end. The first two X-Men movies only hinted at Wolverine's hidden past. As ensemble movies they could only use his story as backdrop. But it is assumed that the Wolverine movie will flesh out Logan's secret history and his participation in Canada's super soldier experiments. In the desperate search for his lost memory, he will travel from the wilds of the Canadian wilderness to the teeming cities of Japan and beyond. Script writer David Benioff has already submitted a script which has been approved, and filming will begin in 2007. Hugh Jackman has stated that he liked Benioff’s script so much that he tried to convince Fox to make the Wolverine movie even before X-Men 3, but Fox wanted to complete the trilogy first. Latest news on that front is that Benioff is working on the third draft of the screenplay of the movie. Brett Ratner is reportedly in negotiations with Fox to direct the movie. Hugh Jackman is very excited about this movie, as he is both acting and producing it. "For me as an actor, it's an amazing part," Jackman said. "I think Wolverine, in, not just the comic-book genre, but any kind of action movie, is one of the great parts. I love playing him, and it's a challenge." Look for the film to deal with Wolverine's past and include Stryker and Sabretooth as the main villians, newer characters like John Wraith, the Blob and Forearm as Weapon X operatives, and Juggernaut, Silver Fox and Beak as supporting characters. Jackman stressed that Wolverine is not a substitute for X-Men 4: "I want to make a piece that's in every way -- stylistically and character-wise -- that's different, that shows new stuff," Jackman said.

I love the X Men and I think offshoots are great, but Halle Berry can eat shit and die for all I care. It's called X-Men, Not Storm and Company.
She's lovely and has great boobs, but she's too full of herself.

Vod, Deadpool is in pre-production. I'm stoked for it too. He's one of Marvel's best characters.
I've also heard that we've got Iron Man & Namor on the way. Plus a slew of others I'm sure.

The cast of characters looks pretty good. Although, I was really hoping for either Omega Red or Cyber.

Re: The Wolverine Thread
Quote:
Personally I as I probably said several times on the other thread, all of the X-Men movies were titled falsely, they should have been titled, "WOLVERINE and friends" because lets be honest all 3 movies especially 1 & 2 focused mostly if totaly on Logan. I mean what ever happened to the concept of the X-Men being a team? So far the only good team movie I've seen was Fantastic Four, it may have been a crapy movie overall but atleast the idea of the characters working as a team, as a family was there. So I say we don't need any other "spin-offs" just do another actual X-Men movie so that we can see Gambit b/c the fans have been screaming to see Gambit from day 1!
