In the Blu-Ray special edition of X-Men Origins: Wolverine there is a special scene involving Sabretooth and Stryker. The two are discussing Wolverine decision to have his memory totally wiped clean.
This from MTV News:
"Wolverine's brother, played by Liev Schrieber, says to Stryker, ‘Will he remember me?’ and there’s a tremendous moment of vulnerability where Stryker looks at him as if he’s crazy and says, ‘No, of course not,’" Hood told MTV News. "Then Victor Creed says, 'Then let him go,' which is beautiful."
Gavin goes on to further explain why he cut the scene?:
"The reason we opted not to go with that scene quite frankly," Hood explained, "is in test screenings there were people who felt they couldn’t get past the idea of Wolverine allowing Stryker—after everything that Stryker has done—to do this to him."
I wonder how the fan reaction was with what Gavin did to Deadpool? Could they not get past that either? I bet not. News broke yesterday of Gavin Hood not being attached to the Wolvie sequel. I say yay to that. Keep this guy out of there and we might get a decent Mutant movie from Fox. Then again we might not. It was also reported that Laura Donner Schuler is going to reboot Deadpool. If that's not the studio saying that they screwed the pooch with X-Men Origins: Wolverine, then I don't know what they would say. I bet it would probably go something like this: "We are going to take all are ideas that we came up with by ourselves (Fox) and throw them out the window and act like they never happened, that way for the sequel we will have a fresh start and will act like the events in X-Men Origins: Wolverine never took place." Yeah, it would probably be something like that if it were a official statement.
