Can we plese call a halt to the shots of guys in movies walking away from shit blowing up? Please??? Although, to be fair, I think I'll let the Cloon walking away from that explosion in SYRIANA pass. Probably the best thing in the flick.

It looks exactly like the Watchmen. I just said that to watch the world explode. Although I suggest that is what most people will think outside of people that are into comics.
It's been said elsewhere, but again, i still don't know why they are bothering with a standalone movie for this guy ($$$, I know). This is like making a movie outside of STAR WARS all about Luke Skyywalker.

If I have any interest in this movie it all, it's because of Danny Huston.
I wonder if they explain how eloquent Liev Schreiber eventually becomes the virtually-mute, seven foot Tyler Mane (although Schreiber is taller than I thought).
I'm surprised the comments are so negative today. I think the trailer looks ok. Impossible to tell anything from a trailer these days, but one thing we do know is that Ratner is NOT directing it so there's hope.
Also, I just read elsewhere that they are doing extensive reshoots right now. It sounds like Gavin Hood is still in charge, so maybe this is a good thing?

Offal on film. Hugh Jackman's wondrous chest can't even save this.

I guess this new movie isn't supposed to necessarily fit neatly into the previously established canon of the other films.
Frankly, I think it looks fun. And let's face it, Wolverine is everyone's favorite, and they'll all line up for this puppy when it opens.

I hate when fanfic writers are allowed to work on scripts.

Looks ridiculous, and not in a good way. Schreiber as Sabretooth has the makings of legendarily bad casting.
Still may have to see this someday due to the presence of GAMBIT.

Jeffrey ran the same trailer (I think) a month ago.
