BrobotC Posted May 13, 2009 Author Share Posted May 13, 2009 Regarding her looks, she just looked like an average looking woman in the movie to me, but in the comics, she is supposed to be breath-takingly gorgeous, right? They cast supermodels and gorgeous women in every other comic movie role, even when it really isn't at all important to the character (Mystique, Betty Ross, Lois Lane in the re-do), but for a woman whose looks and sexuality were an essential part of her character (at least up through the 1990s, when I stopped reading stuff), they pick some decent, but not great looking woman. She looks like a typical sorority girl or something to me. she looked like a monkey. Man, you are mean. what do you mean man,i speekz du truf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TM2 Dinobot Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I don't know if I mentioned this, but was any one else really mad about the CG claws? Seriously, was it so hard to give him a set of claws to hold like the first two movies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 It really showed in the bathroom scene. I thought they looked incredibly fake there, but didn't really notice anywhere else. Still, you figure with technology the way it is, we would be beyond 1993-level CGI, but I guess not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallbreaker2.0 Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 --Why would Sabretooth care so much about Wolverine leaving the black ops group? It seemed really personal to him, largely driving his actions through the movie (at least, enough to convince him to turn his back on and hunt Wolvie, even though he was also doing it in the hopes of getting the adamantium treatment). . I could be wrong here but I think Sabretooth makes some kind of comment about thinking the prisoners were going to go free possibly part of a deal between him and Stryker. Also the other deaths could have been faked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was right before Wolverine frees the prisoners Stryker tells Sabretooth to make sure Wolverine doesn't free the prisoners and Sabretooth says that he(Stryker) told him they would go free anyways because they had X1 to which Stryker replies X1 is just the begining. The faked deaths is just a possiblity based on the fact that Wolverines gf's death was faked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthRaider Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 The faked deaths is just a possiblity based on the fact that Wolverines gf's death was faked. If you're referring to the deaths of Bradley, Wraith and possibly Blob, Im fairly confident those weren't faked since they voluntarily went rogue on Weapon X and would thus have no reason to be in on the conspiracy .

Danny Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Regarding the Emma Frost appearance thing. In the comics Emma makes no secret of the fact she has had extensive surgery to enhance her looks and, ahem, gravity defying (in certain outfits anyway!) assets. She was young in the film (with it being a prequel to the X-series) so later on (fingers crossed!) she will possibly be played by someone who looks more like her comic counterpart. I really enjoyed the film - the Wade scene where he goes in the room and sweeps all the bullets away using his swords is one of my favourite scenes ever! but like some of you, I can't understand why so many liberties were taken with some of the characters, it all seems so uneccessary.

Bob Harris Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I think it was a nice movie and it had some really cool scenes and easter eggs for us nerds. Some aspects were really, really stupid and unnecessary and in some scenes I just couldn't figure whether those film-makers are really self-ironic or just review boring clichés. I don't know. I didn't expect something like Dark Knight or even Iron Man, but would have appreciated it. Anyway I'm fine with it. I really enjoyed the film - the Wade scene where he goes in the room and sweeps all the bullets away using his swords is one of my favourite scenes ever! [...] "OK, they are dead now", was a great punchline! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Well whatever he actually says - and Wade was never short of a quip in his limited screen time, at least we can all agree the scene was badass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Harris Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 OK, I lied. In the version I watched he didn't say "OK, they are dead now". He said "OK, die sind jetzt alle tot." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
