Here is the poster for the new Wolverine movie and I have to say it isn't half bad. I really like Jackman as Wolverine because he seems to genuinely care about the character and fans. For some reason I can't help but think this movie is going to be bad. The preview looks great and Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool is great but there is just something that gives me that sinking feeling. Well here it is, enjoy.
Some people may not like Hugh Jackman but I think the guy is bad ass. He obviously cares about his fans and the character he is portraying. So here comes this little message from Hugh himself from Aint it Cool News.

Hey everyone -
It's Hugh Jackman, sending this note from freezing Vancouver. I have read a lot of your online comments regarding the footage that we are currently shooting and I share your passion for the Wolverine character and the movie - I owe it all to you guys!
I wanted to reach out and let you know that due to scheduling conflicts with certain cast members and location/weather considerations, we had to wait until now to shoot a couple of scenes. Please rest assured that WOLVERINE will be badass and hopefully meet all of your expectations. I am stoked by the positive response to the teaser, which clearly reflects the tone and scope of the film. If you like that, we've got much more in store!
In the meantime, here's an exclusive shot of some characters you may recognize...
Cheers,
Hugh

UFC fighter Jeff Monson has been charged with first-degree malicious mischief for defacing the Capitol building in Olympia, Wash. Now under normal circumstances when someone tags a building one would normally not get caught. Usually done at night with no witnesses right? Well the story goes that ESPN was covering Monson when he decided to go and tag the Capitol building with an Anarchist symbol and took pictures of him committing the act. Not only did ESPN take pictures of the crime, they ran them in their magazine. So guess what? Monson is now on the hook for a maximum penalty of $20,000 fine and 10 years in prison. Here is the kicker, Monson could care less. Monson is not only an actively outspoken Anarchist but has a Master's degree in Psychology. So the question is why right? Why would you put yourself in this position? It seems as Monson is using this to bring his cause to the forefront of discussion. Without publicity many causes go unheard and unrecognized. Well Monson I hope it all works out for you. It's not like he will lose his job or anything. With Rampage driving on sidewalks during a high speed chase and him still having a place in the UFC, Monson's malicious mischief should be nothing to worry about.

So rumors are flying everywhere that Jackson may not be playing Nick Fury in the million Marvel movies that may be coming out in the next few years. Jackson was quoted in an interview saying that he doesn't know if Marvel is going to have him as Nick Fury. This comes right after Jon Favreau supposedly told him that he was writing a lot of stuff for him. If he plays Fury cool if not I'm indifferent, he may be the Ultimate's Nick Fury but he's no original AKA The Hoff.
Apparently the comic adaptation of Kick Ass will be two God Damn hours of close shots of people looking into the camera. Seriously give me a break and put some real pictures out there. At the least can someone get out there and steal some more. I know I don't update this thing as much as you would all like but this is something I just couldn't pass up. The last issues if the series, issue 5 i might add, was actually really good. The releasing of this book is so scarce that we may have issue 7 when the film actually makes it to theaters. Anyways heres the images you have been waiting for, I hope you enjoy them.
