The Wolverine sequel tease with Hugh Jackman


I really enjoyed the The Wolverine film, and have always been a (real) huge Marvel comic Wolverine fan- Weapom X (and sequel to Weapon X) series/storyline was always my favorite.
So needless to say that I am excited to hear the possibility of a sequel, which I hope they can keep going darker and deeper into Logan's past.
Hugh Jackman recently sat down with Entertainment Weekly for an interview where he hints at a possible sequel,
From the interview:

"Hugh Jackman has neither confirmed nor denied whether he’ll sign on to play muttonchopped mutant Logan for an eighth time… but the odds are looking good. “I was on the phone with Jim Mangold last night,” Jackman told EW. “There are some really cool ideas that I’m dying to tell you, but that would be giving away a secret that is not even [fully] formed yet.”

He goes on to say

"“I love the character, he’s kind of like a best friend to me, and I don’t ever want to take [him] or the fans for granted. … I think we’ve got a great opportunity to make something really cool, but it has to be great. That’s what we’re all working toward.”

Back on track....What to watch if you haven't done so already.


This summer has had many fandom-centric films, from Wolverine to RIPD to World War Z, Iron Man, Star Trek etc

Of the bunch, I surprisingly enjoyed The Wolverine the most, despite it steering away from some true elements of the story of our Canadian superhero.
From someone who read Wolverine comic books as a child, this particular story-line is important in telling the story of Logan...and this may be the one reason I gravitated more towards a like than a a dislike.
Violence level:acceptable, cinematography: visually good, script/dialogue:
average.
If you like Superhero films, you will enjoy this.
It is not quite Chris Nolan -Batman like...It fits more in the mold of the latest Man of Steel film.
6.5/10

Review on: The Wolverine

The Wolverine starring Hugh Jackman...
Judging from the trailer, this will be something worth watching.
As a fan of the original Marvel comic book series, I am excited to see a storyline that somewhat relates to the original comic book.
Wolverine, the comic book series,  has never been a cheerful story of good  versus  evil, therefore its appeal isn't relate-able to a clean cut jovial superhero, but rather to a darker, complex, vengeful, borderline sociopath, likable hard ass.
Are we going to see some weapon X ..perhaps not
However, undoubtedly there will be blood

New captures from Iron Man 3 and The Wolverine


Source: EW, Film Trasher

I swear to god, despite the fact that I am excited to see this new Wolverine film, they better not turn it into some spidermanironmantheavangerscatwomendaredeviloriginalbatmanthorrecentsupermanthehulkfantasticfour-esque sh)tshow.


I also have zero expectations and interest for IronMan III. They lost me as a viewer the second they changed the Tony Stark character from the comic book into some extreme over the top arrogant persona.
If Hollywood has rights to a comic book character, then try harder to keep the namesake and visual likeliness, try the fu-k to keep the story relevant and relatable to the source material.
