Hell, you could have the most EVIL villain next to him..and he'll unnerve them by the things he says.
But this type of character on film has been done and could be very annoying. There have been many henchmen or main villains that do the "crazy, cartoonish, talking-to-themselves, evil, making jokes" shtick...well, if anyone, I guess Ryan Reynolds can pull it off, since he is funny and can be kick-ass at the same time. I was hoping he would play the Flash though as well. Technically, he can still be Flash since he's played characters only in the Marvel universe (Blade and Wolverine), and not yet in the DC universe.

Re: Wolverine - Solo

It was so people don't have to click another link just to see the poster. I like the poster, I just don't know if this film is going to be that good. I'm intrigued to see Deadpool though. What do you guys think?

Re: Wolverine - Solo

but you still had to put a link to your own blog. There's nothing wrong with hot-linking an image "for the lazy".

It's just a source, like all news stories posted here should have. Makes it much easier to share.

EDIT: Fixed it so you don't have to see the link

Re: Wolverine - Solo

TV spot called "Outcasts." They played a new one during House tonight called "Brothers" which should be up soon. Pretty good stuff.

You're thinking that Sabretooth is both his brother and father? Or is the dream sequence / memory supposed to be misleading?

Re: Wolverine - Solo

Well, this first trailer is just getting ripped a new one over at AintItCool (where pessimists and internet whiners are born and bred).

I thought it looked pretty cool. Crossing my fingers that the movie will turn out good (but then again, it is being made by Fox).

Re: Wolverine - Solo

Seemed to me like it wasn't brothers in the family sense, but who knows. The clip from the first one seemed pretty close to Wolverine's actual origin. Hopefully they don't mess with things and make Sabretooth his brother.

EDIT:
Spoiler:
Actually, according to the Wikipedia description, he's going to be Wolvie's half-brother. Maybe they make the Dog character from the comics into Creed?

Re: Wolverine - Solo

Was it ever proved that Dog wasn't Creed? Though by his appearance in Origin and his lack of a healing factor for the scars...I guess not.

Re: Wolverine - Solo

The "Outcasts" one is a little confusing.
Spoiler:
The guy that kills Woverine's "father" turns out to be his and Sabretooth's father (note the resemblance). It makes Sabretooth and Wolverine half-brothers for the movie.

Re: Wolverine - Solo

That is the part that worries me...and it seems like we see too much of Creed doing that lunge run thing. Even though I think we've only seen two scenes with him doing it. I dunno..maybe it's cuz it's just not normal to see a body do that. Everything else I'm ok with....it's just the
Spoiler:
change of making them literal brothers.
I really hope the full section of that is good

also for the sake of ppl being able to see this:

I'm just now getting around to seeing the trailers and they good really good.

I must admit I'm pretty excited about this one.
