WHY I HATE WOLVERINE

Sat May 23, 2009, 8:53 AM
We belong to a time where anything in cinema is possible. Gone are the days of cheap shiny leather costumes and lackluster special effects. 10 years ago, one wouldnt imagine seeing a fully armored Ironman flying in the skies in all his glory. Nobody would expect being able to see the detailed musculature on the HULK while performing spectacular moves. No one would imagine seeing Batman's gotham brought to life in the most convincing and realistic way... but most of all, nobody would have expected a huge film company like FOX to mess up a character as popular as Wolverine. Why do i think so? REad on...


WARNING... TO THOSE WHO HAVENT SEEN AND WOULD WANT TO SEE THE MOVIE, SPOILERS AHEAD


Seeing how successful Ironman, Dark Knight, Batman Begins, Incredible Hulk, Sin City, Watchmen and 300 were, i couldnt let the following plotholes and stupid corny antics juz pass:

a. Wolverine's smells Sabertooth hundreds of yards away but couldnt distinguish his girlfriend's blood from that of a dead animal? And the supposedly dead girlfriend is on his lap?

b. Being a veteran of the Civil War, WWII, Vietnam war among many others, he doesnt know how to check for wounds when he found the love of his life's clothes soaked in blood? (no scratches, bruises, wounds)... Wow, he must be the most stupid soldier ever!

c. The love of his life dies and he doesnt even bury her? He juz leaves her where he found her and ran off for revenge right there and then? Lame.

d. Wolverine goes out of his way killing everybody to get to Sabertooth but when the Blob doesnt give him info, he automatically agrees to a very corny boxing match? What happened to his berserker rage? Wolvie's soft of obese guys i guess.

e. Striker needs to type in DECAPITATE so that a remote controlled Deadpool can take off Logan's head but Deadpool can jump, summersault, teleport, throw eyebeams, stab, maim, block, parry, counterattack, grow swords, kick and punch on his own? WTF?!

f. A huge diameter optic beam can be blocked by 6 razor sharp claws??? Imagine blocking a flashlight's lightbeam with 6 dinner knives.. possible?

g. Gambit can destroy a falling concrete wall by hitting it with his staff while jumping probably more than 20 feet in the air... but he cant generate enough force when fighting and gets his ass handed to him?

h. Adamantium bullets can make Wolverine lose his memory..how? Doesnt make any sense!

i. Deadpool (Wade Wilson) can block/parry bullets from automatic rifles (yes, plural... like 5 maybe) before he got experimented on and he still got his head cut off by Wolvie after he's been augmented with new skills and powers?

j. There are a lot of stupid corny one liners that dont make sense like:
* Gambit saves Wolvie's ass, turns back and says "miss me?" How gay is that?
* Wolverine is in a bar drinking while a female asks him "Drinking to forget?" and he says "Im drinking to remember." WTF does that mean?!

k. Deadpool in the comic books is a wisecracking deadly loudmouth mercenary who uses guns and swords. Deadpool in the movie has no mouth, dont use guns, fires optic beams from his eyes, teleports, have blades growing from his forearms. Talk about disrespecting the fans, the character and the creator.

l. The movie relied on stupid corny antics like Gambits floating card trick, Fedora hats, jumping while twirling his batton in the air rather than a solid plot.

m. Special effects were weak compared to Incredible Hulk, Ironman and other huge films that were created in the past 3-5 years. CGI wasnt that smooth and realistic. Jumping scenes didnt seem to follow the laws of physics. No acceleration/deceleration.. no sense of weight and impact.


And all these doesnt include the movie-comicbook differences coz i understand some things have to be changed for some books to be successful as a film. Then again, coming from FOX who has given us Dragonball and AVP:Requiem, im not surprised they gave us a mickeymouse treatment of the dark and gritty character we all know as Wolverine.

Hey 007! Went and saw the new Transformers movie. Storyline could have been better and the ending sucked but it was badass all throughout.

And the new toys i'm seeing while at work look pretty cool. Sucks to have to grow up.
