X-Men sans Wolverine? Extra Post!
Saw this sad bit o' news while doing something on Facebook. The X-Men is one of those Sci-Fi films that cross over into paranormal. There is more magic than not in the metamorphosis from normal storm to angry storm.

When 'X-Men' hit in 2000, mutton-chopped Wolverine strolled into the the public consciousness, and by 2003, his adamantium claws ripped through any remaining genre barriers, freeing him to rise to the top tiers of mainstream superheroes. Hugh Jackman's Wolverine was the bee's knees cat's pajamas ... he was James Dean meets Sean Connery -- troubled, yet charismatically unstoppable.Read the rest of the article here Wolverine Won't Be In 'X-Men: First Class' -- Is That a Mistake? - The

Hugh Jackman seems like a nice guy, but Wolverine Origins was so awful...
Also if they put him in this one (which ought to star young Cyclops, et. al. in the 60's), they'd maybe have to deal with the whole maybe-several-hundred-years-old thing, and the probably-not-even-'Wolverine'-by-this-time thing, and I can't see Fox doing it.
Also also, I hope Singer is still pissed at Fox for taking the good groundwork he laid in X2 and pissing it away into dreck. I'll trust him to make something good.
Sorry, ending nerd rant. :)
big mistake! hugh jackman as wolverine is the best that xmen has to offer... it's a shame!
*shakes head violently* Yes! It's a mistake. I wuv wolverine!!! The only other one that comes close (but not quite) is Gambit. :(
Well, I enjoyed Wolverine in the first 2 X-Men movies but the last one and Origins was terrible. I'm not sure I'd like an X-Men without Wolverine though ...
Congrats! You've won an award! You can claim it here.
Hugh Jackman is on my list of hotties! X-Men is a great comic, not my favorite comic-related movie, but then I'm usually disappointed in the results when comics are translated into movies. Regardless, Wolverine is a fun character and I'm not sure I'll watch an X-Men movie without him. Never did bother with Wolverine Origins tho.
HUGE error! How can they do anything X-Men without Hugh Jackman!?!?!?!? Really, if given the opportunity - I would never do ANYTHING without him! I will be truly sad to see the X-Men without his being in it -
