Wolverine

Saw X-Men:Origins- Wolverine with The King, Bret, Elena, and Timmay (libaw timmay!)

Spoilers follow:

Overall I liked it, but the purist in me was pretty furious at how they cobbled things together.
For example: Maverick is Asian and um a ninja with guns (but not Snake-Eyes) now. Deadpool gets turned into a combination of The Mimic and Baraka from Mortal Kombat. The action sequences with him were quite awesome, tho. But his optic blast woulda melted Wolverine's skin and not get reflected compeltely by the adamantium.
Gripes:
  • Why do Wolverine and Sabretooth serve the AMERICAN Gov't when they are Canadian? (I recall in the comics Wolverine working for that department H, then the Canadia Secret service, and the CIA, among other agencies)
  • "Serve your country" Event though they are Canadian and not American...
  • Will I Am/Wraith having a much bigger part than he shoulda had. Gambit could used his screen time.
  • Gambit needing more screen time
  • Sabretooth's running on all 4s looksed kinda bad
  • When SIlverfox 'dies' wtf. There were no slash marks or anything on her, and Wolverine believed that crap? Seriously...
  • Native American Silverfox having a White Emma Frost as a sister. wtf?
  • Lack of gore and blood for all teh slashing, stabbing, and general mayhem
  • Kind of convoluted how they tried to piece everything together from comic, animated, movies, and 'original'
  • Hobbit as that telekentic /electorkenetic 'bolt' guy (An obscure character *I* was not familiar with)
  • 2 Words: Adamantium Bullets. Negro please. He's not a werewolf.
  • Wolverine did not have his classic cowboy hat
  • The 30 second clip after the credits of Wolverine drinking one shot in Japan. BAD
Pros:
  • Gambit was cool
  • Handling Gambits powers and the like were jawsome
  • Gambit had a hat!
  • Wolverine in a Canadian Tuxedo in one scene.excellent
  • Action sequences were entertaining
  • Jackman was good
  • That girl who played Silverfox was hot
  • Boxing scene reminded me of punch out
  • Gambit winning a Cessna from Lando in a game of sabaac
  • Ryan Reynolds doing a surprisingly decent job with Deadpool
  • Pretty good special FX apart from Sabretooth's crappy running
  • Bone claws getting snapped ala Cyber
  • Wraith was pretty close to the comic character, surprisingly
  • Wolverine as a lumberjack combined with the brief male nudity make me think about the fun the internet slash community will have with that, good lord. Maybe this is a con!?!?!
  • Asian Maverick had some sweet moves (Agent Zero if you will)


Afterwards, some Singstar, but for some unbeknownst reason I forgot Singstar:Abba at my house.
