Good.
Make it rated 'R' and we've got ourselves a REAL Wolverine movie.( or at least the potential)

I think they should give someone else a shot at wolvy, jackmans had his run and to me he's always been a little dry, I'd like to see someone fresh take a stab at the role

@ironman53- Don't hold your breath. But if money is a motivator, they may just rise to the occasion.(ain't gonna make a great CBM because they're comic book fans)

Well let's get on with it then.

Mangold is an interesting choice don't know how I feel about that.

I hope Jackman hangs up the claws after this one!!!!!

I don't care for deadpool.

But wolverine deserves a good solo flick.

Sony?? Practice using more accuracy while trolling GreenRanger..

I'd like to see Jackman get the chance to give us a really great solo Wolverine flick before he hangs up his claws. I can't imagine he will be playing this character again..MAYBE one more time. Mangold is good, would have preferred Aronofsky but what can ya do. I'll remain optimistic until I have reason not to!

I DO have my own concerns about this thing as well. So I understand SOME of the hatred aimed in this franchises general direction. They know what they did wrong last time though, so lets give em a chance..

I can definitely wait to see how bad FOX f*cks this one up.

Man I thought 2012 is the year of the cbm, but 2013 will just be as good. And for those saying Deadpool and wolverine in 2013 I doubt it. Marvel isn't going to have 4 movies come out in the same year whether Its Fox or Marvel Studios.. Expect either Deadpool (if wolverine does good) or Xmen first class sequel in 2014 for sure.

2013 is looking to be another good year for cbms. i just wished GL would have be good. im sure they would have been ready for a sequel or at least a Flash movie by now.

Hopefully Fox will give us another First Class quality movie. Just based more on the comics though

@ironman53- Don't I know it.
Adamantium claws aren't for cutting paper!

'X-Force' anyone?!!

Let's see the REAL Wolverine...berserker and all! (man Fox-! , grow a pair!)

Neek2086 - 2/7/2012, 12:02 PM
@mago Oh yea 2013 is Man of Steel's year anyway I'm glad Fox is smart enough to put wolverine in a different month or it would have gotten no play.

Hope it's good.

I agree, when Jackman gets older, Old Man Logan should happen.

Last chance for Wolverine... its getting a bit long in the tooth now. All of the Jackman X-men movies plus (this one) 2 Wolverine films = 5 screen outings for Jackman's Wolverine.

He's done well (and we appreciate it Hugh) but Marvel should give the character a nice long rest and concentrate on other characters in their portfolio imho.

@ nomis

old man logan is the best wolverine story i've read over the last few years.

it needs movie or animated movie treatment.

Wolverine is NOT your neighborhood babysitter!

This dude is hard core, and has a history of cutting and gutting!

Get real Fox! Let the man do...ehem, quote: " I'm the best at what I do"-!, which is to kill mutha fu****'s who get in his way! BUB!

Damn!
