Christopher McQuarrie Has Been Hired To Write The Script For Wolverine 2!

This is great news as the screen writer for such films as "The Usual Suspects," and "Valkyrie" has been hired seemingly to save this franchise!
According to "The Hollywood Reporter" Christopher McQuarrie has been hired by Fox to script the sequel to this years "X-Men Origins: Wolverine."

The trades also confirms that the sequel WILL in fact take pages from Frank Miller's run on Wolverine, putting the mutant avenger in Japan.

With McQuarrie's involvement one has to wonder if Bryan Singer will try to get involved as the two of them have worked together in the past on the first X-men film.

As long as Fox has the rights this film will still suck.
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 2:57 PM
We can only hope that they learn from their mistakes. At least they hired a solid writer this time around.
jman1977 - 8/13/2009, 2:58 PM
I actually do hope that Bryan Singer does it. Probably a longshot...but it would be nice. He did a good job with 2 Wolverine-centric X films already.
Bamf7 - 8/13/2009, 2:59 PM
@jman1977:Every Fox Marvel film sucks except for Xmen 1 and 2. Every other one sucks and they dont care about the story they just want there damn money!(bastards)
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 3:00 PM
Daredevil wasnt that bad but i hope this is good news :)
teabag - 8/13/2009, 3:01 PM
Sweet! So i take it, it wont be ORIGINS 2 then! ; )

TEA @ I loved DD! Wasn't perfect, but wasn't that bad!
LEEE777 - 8/13/2009, 3:01 PM
Fox shouldnt even be allowed to make comic book movies!

They shouldnt even make any movie.
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 3:04 PM
I prey to god that Fox will lose the rights to the Deadpool movie.
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 3:05 PM
Not alot we can do about it OZ @ Lets just hope for the best man!
LEEE777 - 8/13/2009, 3:06 PM
You a Star Wars fan Ozy??

DD was very good, as was Hulk(yes, i said it..u want some o this???)
Rorschach01 - 8/13/2009, 3:06 PM
@ Ozy: I cant say I disagree with you. X1 and x2 were way more put together then the third outing, and the way they willingly got away from the source material in Origins wolverine when they had absolutley no need to, was a terrible let down. What hap to Fox anyway, they USED to be the premier movie making studio.
jman1977 - 8/13/2009, 3:09 PM
@Ror: Like when Star Wars came out back in the day offcourse.
jman1977 - 8/13/2009, 3:10 PM
Fox used to be good with the Star Wars and Alien movies but now they are just making them crappy.
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 3:12 PM
Yeah i loved the originals..Fox can good movies though! Anyway, awesome news about McQuarrie, lets hope hes a comic fan!
Rorschach01 - 8/13/2009, 3:14 PM
Ror,,Hulk was a whiney bitch ass of a movie that had good acting il give ya but no apeal, no excitement ,no villain , no entertainment....just a 2hr obsession with moss growing on rocks.......DD is still good tho :P
teabag - 8/13/2009, 3:15 PM
I think FOX went down hill ever since the star wars PREQUELS (minus the two X-MEN movies of course),

I blame GEORGE LUCAS! ; D

HULK was all to do with RAGE! Damn, don't laugh but i watched the tv movie last nite on tv lol!
LEEE777 - 8/13/2009, 3:16 PM
Either way, complaining won't do a lot of good...there isn't even anything to complain about on THIS movie yet. We barely know anything. I'll stay hopeful for now.
Bamf7 - 8/13/2009, 3:17 PM
I wouldnt mind if Singer comes back to the X-Universe. I think he would make a good Wolverine movie. Like others have said he made two X-Men movies that were basically Wolverine stories.

LEEE- I kind of liked Revenge of the Sith though. Lucas is to blame for the way the prequels turned out. I wouldnt mind seeing a movie based of the video game the Force Unleashed or the comic book Legacy.
ironknight27 - 8/13/2009, 3:17 PM
Bamf7 @ Yeah lets hope so!

Ironknight @ Ive been saying that, he'd bring the magic back!

I like SITH too dude, well apart from a few bits like =

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!


LEEE777 - 8/13/2009, 3:19 PM
You cant blame Fox though for the Star Wars prequels.They dont make the Star Wars movies,Lucasfilm does meaning the one to blame is GEORGE LUCAS!
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 3:19 PM
@ Bam: I agree with you, although, this is def a step in the right direction
jman1977 - 8/13/2009, 3:20 PM
LEEE777- I actually laughed out loud when that happened.
ironknight27 - 8/13/2009, 3:23 PM
I cried!!! Lol
LEEE777 - 8/13/2009, 3:24 PM
Damn why is everyone hatin on fox(ok I know they [frick] up some movies) but they have some way good movies that are fairly recent I.e. The departed,fast and furious,v for vendetta,night at the museum,ect. I think that its all about the director he has to stick to his guns like ror said on the other jackman post no studio is goin to keep firin directors til they get the right one I mean if they had lets say jon favreau(don't know if I spelled it right) or someone like that we would have good xmen movies(all of them were alright) but could've been classics like lord of the rings,iron man, or the departed which I mentioned before imagine how cool it would be to see a real iceman,rogue flyin and beast kickin ass hairless in their costumes
SabretoothTiger - 8/13/2009, 3:26 PM
I say if Fox loses the rights give them to Sony(Spiderman) and we will have some better movies!
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 3:29 PM
V FOR VENDETTA is WARNER BROTHERS! @ Sabre.

I think they just mess up any fantasy movies lol.
LEEE777 - 8/13/2009, 3:30 PM
WEAR THE SUIT WEAR THE SUIT
GUNSMITH - 8/13/2009, 3:31 PM
WOW! This is fricken HUUUUUUGE! This is the best news you wolverine fans can ask for! You guys should be thanking the good lord up above!
divo - 8/13/2009, 3:31 PM
OZY @ You seen SPIDEY 3???

Though i did like SANDMAN.

Divo @ They basically had to do something like this, since the last one, though i hope sabretooth makes a appearance!
LEEE777 - 8/13/2009, 3:31 PM
I don't know about you lee, but I got a massive erection right now! This has potential to be one of the best CBM's ever if they get a decent director.
divo - 8/13/2009, 3:37 PM
@LEEE777:I didnt think Spiderman 3 was that bad.I liked it way more then the 1st film.

@divo:Hate to dissapoint you but this is a Fox comicbookmovie were talking about:(
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 3:40 PM
Point that somewhere else lol! : D

I know what ya mean though man!

ozy @ Thats cool, but it should've been darker, much darker!


LEEE777 - 8/13/2009, 3:40 PM
Fox gets one more chance. And from this news it seems like they may be finally listening to us, the fans!
divo - 8/13/2009, 3:44 PM
Im not normally a praying man but if you're out there, please save this franchise Mr McQuarrie. Lets hope in Summer 2012, we will be extra happy with an awesome Avengers movie and hopefully awesome Wolverine 2
dancingmonkey08 - 8/13/2009, 3:47 PM
Lets hope, well actually they sorta know they've only got one more chance, even non comic book fans had mixed reactions over the movie!
LEEE777 - 8/13/2009, 3:49 PM
I smell a reboot....
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 3:50 PM
The Usual Suspects is one of the best films ever
Imran - 8/13/2009, 3:58 PM
While Hugh Jackman is alive and able to act we will not see a reboot of Wolverine or the X Men..i guarantee you that!
Rorschach01 - 8/13/2009, 3:59 PM
Oh God, please dont let Singer get involved with this movie... :(
joshw24 - 8/13/2009, 4:04 PM
@Rorscach01:I smell it after this one.
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 4:05 PM
I smell something nasty that's just turned up! ; D

; )
LEEE777 - 8/13/2009, 4:10 PM
Ozy - You said if Fox loses the rights you hope Sony gets them?? How about if Fox lost the rights, MARVEL gets them...they have a pretty solid track record building up of making their own stuff!

sigh. fanboy delusion.

LEE - Yeah man, I'm with you. I wish they would have spent more time on him actually becoming Vader. Not the whole movie..but maybe more than 5 minutes?
Bamf7 - 8/13/2009, 4:15 PM
@LEEE777:Do you mean Josh?
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 4:15 PM
@Bamf7:I meant if Marvel doesnt get the rights they should go to sony.
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 4:16 PM
Oh ya my bad leee hahaha but like I said they could make this good if they get a great director and script they should get a lot more people involved from marvel as well not to go 100% like the comics but I mean they should have the people in the right timeline like iceman bein 16 years old screw that he's one of the strongest and first xmen that pissed me off the most I like iceman they could do so much with his powers(like the ice wall in x2,or his powers in x3)
SabretoothTiger - 8/13/2009, 4:23 PM
hey folks...i posted my 1st article..FAN FIC FOR MIGHTY AVENGERS...i hope you guys like it if you peruse...it aint short but it has a lot of good stuff in it...hope u guys like it...
josh and HAWK and LEE...plz i like chatting with you guys...so check it out por favor...esp u HAWK as i know ur a kick ass scribe yaself
Anil Rickly - 8/13/2009, 4:25 PM
OZY: LEE does indeed! because he's a pathetci paranoid pansy who cant accept that his mediocre choices in the fan polls lost so has to accuse people (mainly me and Tyler) of vote rigging! :)

LEE: how does it feel knowing that most people on this site now consider you the new supermike?
joshw24 - 8/13/2009, 4:25 PM
Wolverine's Japan saga was some wonderful work! I sure hope they don't muck it all up!

I don't think we can totally blame Fox for Wolverine Origins, It's the Producer, director, screenwriter and star that are responsible for the ultimate outcome of a movie.
DDD - 8/13/2009, 4:26 PM
@joshw24:How could you be rigging the vote?It only lets you vote once.
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 4:28 PM
Atleast im not a CHEAT and a LIAR JOSH! ; )

Your worst than Supermike!

You know all they got to do is check your ip addy with the multiple votes you did, nothing goes up 45 votes in 5 minutes to 499, when its been slow all day!

OZY @ Its a known fact if you have the computer savy, you can get around stuff like that lol!

Anyway JOSH, i aint playing the POLL thing anymore, you took the whole enjoyment out of it! ; )

Congrats.
LEEE777 - 8/13/2009, 4:34 PM
@LEEE777:Which article are you talking about?The Cap one?
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 4:37 PM
RED SKULL POLL vote!

Anyway, i was watching the whole performance happen!

Anyway OZ, i aint playing that no more, cant be arsed lol!

JUst a waste of time dude!
LEEE777 - 8/13/2009, 4:42 PM
Bamf @ Yeah, it was a pity!
LEEE777 - 8/13/2009, 4:45 PM
@LEEE777:Well my guy is losing so unfortunatley so I wont be going back on that article to look at the results.I will just comment.
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 4:46 PM
lol! OZ @ Its finished man! ; )
LEEE777 - 8/13/2009, 4:50 PM
I wish (In my wildest dreams) that Marvel would get back all of their properties. Then we'd see some continuity and respect of these wonderful characters.
DDD - 8/13/2009, 4:50 PM
DDD @ I reckon MARVEL should've been more careful with their properties.

Anyone know when FOX and SONY lose them??
LEEE777 - 8/13/2009, 4:51 PM
LEE: you may not be a cheat and a liar but you are an idiot and a [foo foo]. as i said on the Red Skull article - you're a pathetic little sore loser! you cannot cheat as you have been told by EDITORS on this site!! the only thing thats taken the enjoyment out of the polls is the fact your mediocre choices havent won! face it man, someone who casts a porn star as Spider-Woman probably wont have their picks chosen in a poll! i just wish that for once in your sorry life you would answer a question with a direct answer - HOW do you vote more than once? and how the [frick] could someone vote 50+ times in 10mins? it takes my laptopn 30-40 seconds after i vote (because im on a slow mobile broadband connection) to come up with the results so if i were going to somehow vote 5o time it would take me 2 or 3 hours you retard.
joshw24 - 8/13/2009, 4:54 PM
GOD DAMN THIS IS ONE HELL OF A FIGHT!
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 5:00 PM
Lee77@ I luv u man but you picking somebody to vote for is thier death nail. I suggest in the future you lobby AGAINST whoever you do want and lobby FOR whoever you don't. Then the guy you really want might actually win something:)
superdog - 8/13/2009, 5:02 PM
superdog: lmao! :) hey, i dont think ive seen any comments from you on the Cap, Bucky or Skull polls - where've you been man?
joshw24 - 8/13/2009, 5:07 PM
Lee, dont let Josh get under your skin. Hes an idiot and always will be. Id rather go watch New Moon with supermike than spend 2 minutes next to superjosh.
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 5:12 PM
People are starting to take sides here now.
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 5:15 PM
Josh@ I went on thier and voted but there was always like 300 or more post. That's too many for me to read and I dont like jumping in at the end cause I dint wanna say something that has been said 200 post earlier.
superdog - 8/13/2009, 5:16 PM

grif - 8/13/2009, 5:23 PM
Superdog, just post something like "wow, thats alot of ketchup on those fries" chances are you arent repeating anyone
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 5:23 PM
Cap be sure to get home before the sun comes up and you turn to stone. All you do on here is give people shit.

Leee give it a rest, you can't cheat..You would be complaining regardless because you hate to lose! Its just a [frick]ing fan cast poll, get over it.
Rorschach01 - 8/13/2009, 5:24 PM
And I'm not picking sides. I like both Josh and lee77. I just find it funny that Josh always wins and lee77 always looses. Poor guy :(
superdog - 8/13/2009, 5:25 PM
@Rorscach01:I think its best to stay out of this.
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 5:27 PM
lol Oh noes Ror has spoken!!! So its you that Josh is sleeping with? Thats how his comments dont get erased and thats how his picks always win in the polls.
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 5:31 PM
Yeah i know, but every article gets caught up in it, and its such a silly thing to fight over.
Rorschach01 - 8/13/2009, 5:31 PM
And you just made it worse you [foo foo]
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 5:32 PM
This is getting crazy...

Only one way to settle this....YO MAMMA FIGHT!!!!


InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/13/2009, 5:32 PM
CaptainAmerica: are you another of LEE's fake usernames like SWEETJUSTICE that he uses to defend himself because you are so far up his ass that you must be able to see through his nostrels! its LEE getting under MY skin because he's the one verbally abusing me jackass not the other way round.

superdog: i get what you mean...sometimes id go away for a few hours and the comments would have gone from 200 - 500! i just said something random, posted a picture and hoped for the best, lol!

OZY:
123
hehe ;)
joshw24 - 8/13/2009, 5:32 PM
Lol and your sleeping with Ror, which one is worse?
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 5:33 PM
CaptainAmerica: grow up you idiot.

Ror: i guess ill see you later tonight then...make sure you remember to tell Brent to rig the next polls so i win and not to delete my comments! (sorry, i thought it was best to humour CaptainASSHOLE)
joshw24 - 8/13/2009, 5:35 PM
Yes, cap, i rigged Josh's polls and im sleeping with him...did that sound funny in your head before you typed it? Gobshite. Your comments get erased because your a miserable troll that gets involved in stuff only to give people shit. I bet everyone you know hates you.
Rorschach01 - 8/13/2009, 5:35 PM
@joshw24:I am on no ones side.Id prefer to stay out of this and not get involved.
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 5:36 PM
Ozy: i was only kidding man! i dont blame you! im not even on MY side because i've done nothing wrong! Ror (and even Brent), who is an editor on this fine site has even told LEE you cant double vote - if anyone knows i would think its him! but if he cant get over it then whatcha gonna do!?

and guys, im sorry that every article gets hi-jacked by this crap but when LEE starts posting comments like "I smell something nasty that's just turned up! ;D" ive gotta stick up for myself!

joshw24 - 8/13/2009, 5:42 PM
Troll??? Ror quit picking sides. This whole article has comments by Josh saying shit to Lee but those didnt get deleted. And yes it did sound funny in my head. Just how your mom sounded funny when she was giving me he.....wait your too young to understand what im about to say.
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 5:45 PM
@joshw24:Well why dont you just ignore him?
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 5:46 PM
Same here
superdog - 8/13/2009, 5:47 PM
First, you're picking Lee's side here CaptainAmerica.

Second, Lee started the fight on this article by saying
"I smell something nasty that's just turned up! ; D

; )"

InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/13/2009, 5:47 PM
like i said Josh, i just went back and read all the comments and your the one who started the whole fight. Oh and "captainASSHOLE" thats funny cuz Lee actually came up with that nickname.
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 5:47 PM
CaptainAsshole: i left one reply to LEE after he said..."Atleast im not a CHEAT and a LIAR JOSH! ; ) Your worst than Supermike!" - since then ive had to reply to your idiotic rambling when the conversation on the poll was over. god, you're an absolute idiot - and you wonder why your comments get deleted! Troll! ask anyone - it was LEE who started with the accusation after EVER single poll ended!
joshw24 - 8/13/2009, 5:48 PM
When he said he smelled something nasty I think he was talking about me
superdog - 8/13/2009, 5:50 PM
lol im far from a Troll, i actually comment on the articles all the time. Its just sad seeing Lee getting ganged up on for no reason.
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 5:50 PM
My God you really are a [frick]wit aren't you? Lee and Josh were in the middle of something that has been going on for a while and you just popped in and saw an opportunity to give someone shit..which you never miss because your a c#nt. I'm not taking sides, if you could read you would know that all i'm doing is trying to get them to cease-fire. You can't double vote..thats a fact! So Lee's accusations are unfounded..i felt i should at least chime in with that much. No go away and kill yourself. Remember to slash downward on the wrist.
Rorschach01 - 8/13/2009, 5:50 PM
Tyler/Ozy/superdog: you guys are right - i should ignore comments from LEE and his split personalities (SWEETJUSTICE, lc and Captain America)

Ror: couldnt have put it better myself. :)
joshw24 - 8/13/2009, 5:51 PM
Did you just seriously say "Lee getting ganged up on for no reason"? How do you live with yourself after that?
I will give you a reason why Lee is getting ganged up on, by way of his own comment:

"Your both soooo dumb! Ive been watching for the last half hour this bullshit going on!

How stupid do you think ppl are??

All polls should be nil and void!

No vote goes up 49 votes in 10 minutes then for another 15 minutes get's stuck at 499!

Rigged and Fish is not the word for this joke of a poll, i knew you rigged the BRET one, could've believed the ACKLES one but not this bull crap thats just took place!

This is a joke competition, just like the 600 plus votes for a pussycat doll for wonder woman!

I aint playing this sh!te no more BS!!!

PPL i urge you to do the same, i say get the voting checked, becoz this is bull crap to the extreme!

Oh you an TYLER think you funny JOSH dont ya, well ppl ain't stupid you two messed up!

I think i wont get involved like Superdog etc, coz this is a waste of time! I knew it was all rigged, you should've been more careful! What a pile of crap!

Im out, screw this sh!T!

Friggin' cheats!

L8R!!!"

That's why Lee is getting ganged up on.



InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/13/2009, 5:52 PM
lol the emo boy is telling me to kill myself? Ironic. And no Josh im not Lee you idiot. Lee actually hated me when i first popped up around here. Kinda how you hate me :)
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 5:53 PM
Calm down everyone!Except for you Superdog.
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 5:53 PM
Emo boy? Ok, i give up, its not cool to insult the mentally challenged.

So anyway, Wolverine...
Rorschach01 - 8/13/2009, 5:55 PM
lol thanks fag, so anyway, wolverine...
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 5:57 PM
This is good/bad news to me. On one hand, you got Usual Suspect, kick ass. On the other hand, you have Valkyrie, not so kick ass.
InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/13/2009, 5:58 PM
Tyler: yeah, that comment LEE left (which he then quickly claimed was a joke to avoid being laughed at) sums it all up really!

after i was AGAIN accused by LEE today, i went on an old poll (one where it was for what The Avengers should be called) and tried everything - deleting my browsing history, logging on and off, even turning off my laptop and you cannot vote more than once! im sorry, but this is all down to bad sportmanship on LEE's part.
joshw24 - 8/13/2009, 5:59 PM
This is good news cuz even though Valkyrie wasnt great it wasnt that bad
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 6:00 PM
yes, Wolverine...think they'll use any of the costumes in this one?
joshw24 - 8/13/2009, 6:01 PM
Josh: I seriously doubt that was a joke. The way the comment is written and how long it is, I don't think he was joking...

Valkyrie was bad. The only thing that saved it from being terrible was the ending. But even the ending couldn't save the movie from one of the worst Tom Cruise performances I've seen, bland writing, and poor pacing.

InTylerWeTrust82 - 8/13/2009, 6:02 PM
This film is being made by Fox people.I have a bad feeling about this.
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 6:02 PM
Why? Fox actually made some good movies. X-men 1 and 2, Daredevil.
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 6:04 PM
Fox has screwed up Daredevil,Fantastic 4,Elektra and X3 and Origins.Need i say more?Oh yes,Deadpool!!!!!!!!!!
Ozymandias - 8/13/2009, 6:07 PM
Tyler: exactly - saying "JOKE!" was just a way of trying to save face and avoid looking like an idiot (didnt work btw! )

Ozy: yup, with Fox in charge you know it will either bad or mediocre! :(
joshw24 - 8/13/2009, 6:08 PM
Daredevil was good, i agree that FF1 and 2 werent good and X3 wasnt that great. Origins was good, although i seem to be alone when i say that.
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 6:09 PM
i dident read the comments for this article so i got no say but i can say that i refuse to get hyped for this movie no matter what they say or do
jimthefan - 8/13/2009, 6:12 PM
i dident read the comments for this article so i got no say but i can say that i refuse to get hyped for this movie no matter what they say or do
jimthefan - 8/13/2009, 6:12 PM
Here is what I know...

Why are we still talking about leee when he hasn't even made one of the last 50 comments??? Seriously...I don't dislike ANYONE on this site.

except maybe supermike.

But seriously...it DOES eat up every article. Gets really old, and I'm tired of having to read through it to find a comment that has something to do with comicbook movies. Honestly guys, can we just ignore people we don't like here? I don't want to have to find a new website to look at.

So Wolverine...like I said on another post, I hope that they have Elektra in it a bit. Not Jennifer Garner though. I figure Fox has DD rights also, right? So she COULD crossover for this Japan saga movie...right?
Bamf7 - 8/13/2009, 6:16 PM
Bamf7: i think the Daredevil and Elektra right have gone back to MArvel (thank god!) so im not sure if you'll ever see that happen! :(
joshw24 - 8/13/2009, 6:18 PM
Josh: In that case, maybe we'll get to see DD in Avengers? Not in this one...no sense in character overkill. But maybe Matt Murdock? It will be interesting to see if they are able to work him in. I hope so, because he's a pretty different kind of character.
Bamf7 - 8/13/2009, 6:20 PM
Daredevil has not gone back to Marvel, and wont go back for a long time
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 6:21 PM
Bamf7: according to an article under 'FEATURES' Fox had the DD license for 6 years starting from 2001 which would mean it ended in 2007 and the Fantastic Four contract with Fox is supposedly an 8 year deal so it’ll end in late 2010. im not sure how accurate this info is and i dont entirely know how it works but if its true than its great news!

Bamf7: just imagine how great it'll be when Marvel has the rights to their character back - Daredevil in Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four in The Avengers - EPIC dude, EPIC! :)

Hey CBM, i just voted for Daniel Day Lewis 7 times. I thought it wasnt possible?
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 6:32 PM
Josh: Yeah man! Not just FF...I'd love to see Silver Surfer be able to show up in an Avengers movie...something big that makes them team up again. Or, dare I dream, a live Planet Hulk, SOMEDAY. Which, of course would have the Surfer in it briefly. There's so much that could be done if people just didn't give their characters away.

Captain America: Can you post that comment under the poll? Or on a different article please? I don't wanna get started on that again. Thanks.
Bamf7 - 8/13/2009, 6:36 PM
Bamf7: that would be great man! as i said, im not entirely sure how it works but if Marvel will eventually get the rights back to all of their characters the possibilities are endless - maybe 10-15 years from now we'll get a Civil War movie..! :)
joshw24 - 8/13/2009, 6:57 PM
@josh, yeah man i posted that comment =D, but i really dont know if its true. you should look for the original article, its a little old but i found it interesting.
NJdevil12 - 8/13/2009, 6:57 PM
NJdevil12: sorry man, i meant to quote that info as coming from you but couldnt find the article (i was looking under 'Scoops' by accident!) well, i hope its true...if you've got my hopes up and its not im coming after you! hehe ;)
joshw24 - 8/13/2009, 7:12 PM

Bret Ratner for Wolvie 2....huh?? Ok time to wash my mouth out with soap...:>
Rumblebeast - 8/13/2009, 8:11 PM
Bryan Singer for Wolverine 2
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 8:25 PM
nothing will save the x-men franchise as long as fox has the rights.
redskullrevenge - 8/13/2009, 9:06 PM
@josh, its cool man, what you should do is google "which studios own which marvel characters", and it should be the first link up (screenrant.com). i really want to look further into it but the guy that posted the info didnt say where he got it from so...
NJdevil12 - 8/13/2009, 9:15 PM
I DUNNO ABOUT SINGER..HE WAS ON A ROLL..YOU GET OUT OF THE ROLL LOOK WHAT HAPPENS, YOU MAKE SUPERMAN RETURNS, WASNT BAD BUT WASNT EPIC, HE GOES BACK TO THE X FRANCHISE HE MAY NOT HAVE THAT SPARK HE HAD B4
GUNSMITH - 8/13/2009, 9:33 PM
I don't know how Bret Ratner got in the movie business. He is a very poor movie-maker, seriously.

Did Singer write Superman returns? If he did he surely is losing his spark. That superman wasn't anything at all like the superman I grew up with, not one bit. Superman would never be a stalker and flying around with an island of Kryptonite on his head? That is just illogical and silly!

By the way I'm on the side of maturity and decency! I thought we came on this sight to have fun discussing comics and their movies. Everyone has a right to comment on here but petty fights are just that, petty. I'm not taking anybody's side. I just want to have fun on here!
DDD - 8/13/2009, 10:29 PM
Yea, he kinda screwed up with Superman Returns, but nothing can take away from what he did with X1 and 2
CaptainAmerica - 8/13/2009, 10:43 PM
Remember when Warner bros. made all of those crappy Batman movies, well if they smartened up why can't Fox?
Ryguy88 - 8/13/2009, 10:45 PM
Even if Superman came flying up under that Kryptonite Island at super speed he would not get that island into space.

As soon as he got anywhere near the bottom of the island he would lose his super powers and be squashed on the bottom of it like a bug 'cause he is still going at super speed!
DDD - 8/13/2009, 10:47 PM
If Singer can return to his way of directing movies he used with the Usual Suspects or X1 & X2 he could make a very good adaptation of Wolverine's Japan saga. He certainly is capable of making a good movie.
DDD - 8/13/2009, 10:53 PM
Singers last two films have been average at best.....i dont think he has it anymore...that or he is bending over more to the executives..:P
teabag - 8/14/2009, 12:38 AM
Singer as already proven that he can make an adequate film with Fox and Donner (X-Men & X-Men2). But because McQuarrie worked with Singer a bit it doesn't mean he will with Wolverine 2. Also, to mirror a few sentiments, FOX pulls the strings. So it'll likely suck. This guy could write an awesome draft and just sit there and watch FOX suits hack the shit out of it.

They (FOX) don't get it. They have the wrong people making the wrong decisions on every movie they've ever done with a superhero in it. They don't give a shit about the source just the bottom line. As long as they keep pulling us in with false hopes that "Next time will be better", they'll keep sucker punching the fans and to a lesser extent Joe Public.

I've read a few mentions of DareDevil being a decent FOX superhero movie and I agree it was decent - the Director's Cut. Look at the butchered product we got in theaters. A final product that had FOX suits forcefully rip out an entire storyline, that as the Director's Cut proved made the film a lot more of a complete story, thus making the movie over all better.

FOX is run by monkeys that hide in Uwe Boll's attic, listening in on his brainstorms. Wolverine 2 will suck and at best be tolerable under FOX guidance. If Singer is on board he may be the only one to un[frick] the mess they've made so far with Wolverine - to an extent.

Uwe Boll is stuck in the 6th grade and his dialogue is stuck in the 2nd! Uwe Boll's brainstorms are more like brainfarts!
DDD - 8/14/2009, 2:32 AM
Uh, I did kinda state the obvious there! Pardon me! lol

What the FRIG are you on JOSH???

How am i captain america, e.t.c???? Okay comic 'cough' book 'cough' babe!

; D

Dumb a$$, lc's my bird! she found this site when i went on her lappy computer ages ago, anyway, i saw what i saw, an it was BS!

I guarantee the last 40 plus votes for you guy are multiple votes, i just don't know how they can check that out?

The fact you keep on about it, says it all, to pi$$ oh the whole poll thing is a joke and pi$$es on everyones time an effort, not interested anymore, i always said votes should be counted as comments funny you never wanted that lol.

An changing the subject, hopefully WOLVERINE will have SILVER SAMURAI and maybe SUNFIRE but a cameo of SABRE would be cool too!




LEEE777 - 8/14/2009, 3:38 AM
Can i just say i used to vote all the time before i joined and im sure a thousand others do aswell and thats why the votes seem more than the people taking part....but its just a poll........who cares who wins or looses 'the fun is in the campaigning for me but im begining to not give a shit and probably will not take part again cus of all this Bitching!!

Teabag out :D
teabag - 8/14/2009, 4:05 AM
TEA @ It was fun, till it got stupid and rigged, anyway dude, carry on having fun, im done with the whole BS poll voting thing.

By the way ASHMORE would've been by far the best choice lol!

; )

LEEE777 - 8/14/2009, 4:15 AM
Yup, weaponx@, Fox execs are nothing but hatchet men. Give them a good script and good characters and they will chop it into a crass, toy-selling, 2-hour, merchandise comercial!
DDD - 8/14/2009, 5:31 AM
How about a cameo from "Roneto"?



Or should that be "Magburgundy"?
Howlett04 - 8/14/2009, 6:16 AM
I'm with teabag!!!!!

And I also agree with his point ;)
superdog - 8/14/2009, 6:40 AM
Im With Superdog......official ;P

LEEE....Ashmore didnt have a chance in hell but it was fun supporting the underdog :)
teabag - 8/14/2009, 7:02 AM
LEE:

ok, so who the hell is comic book babe?

and 'lc' sounds nothing like 'Lee' btw - maybe it would be better if you called he 'LEE's imaginary boyfriend' (cause no straight guy whines like you ya little bitch)

im glad you're done voting...maybe that means us grown ups who go on articles and have grown up debates wont have to put up with your half naked pictures of men and non-replies.

oh, and please find me the article/comment where i said that i didnt want votes to be counted in the comments section retard.

stop hi-jacking articles with you BS LEEtard.

CaptainAmerica - 8/14/2009, 7:28 AM

CaptainAmerica - 8/14/2009, 7:46 AM

joshw24 - 8/14/2009, 7:52 AM
shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, im not Lee. Like i said Lee hated me at first, maybe one day youll learn to like me and be my new best friend.
CaptainAmerica - 8/14/2009, 7:57 AM
I will go see this no matter what, but as long as FOX holds the rights to anything X-men related (or comic based for that matter) the films will always range from suck - mediocre
Osiris - 8/14/2009, 8:57 AM
