They can still do Old Man Logan. Or at least a riff on it.

 That could be awhile.

 

After one relatively poor attempt at covering his origin then a decent but loose adaption of his Japan adventure, I'd like to see the definitive Wolverine film with Jackman. They've already used the Weapon X story in X2 then wasted the Origin adaption in XOW and loosely adapted the Wolverine Limited Series in TW. The only place to go would be a Madripoor film with him as Patch. Even though it's not my favorite Wolverine tale, I wouldn't mind that, but too bad Marvel owns Jessica Drew(or the Hulk for that matter). Maybe they can bring back Harada who apparently died in TW as the real Silver Samurai, not the robotic monstrosity that nearly ruined the film.

I thought Jackman said he wanted to do "Old Man Logan" for the next movie?

Kate was in FF. Rooney wasn't. Checkmate.

 

Rooney's Tiger Lily.  Let that abomination sink in.

[Mojoguy]

Yep, whoever wants to start the 'domesic total under first two FF's opening weekends', don't bother, it's happening

Why are you being so defensive about FF?

[kowhite]

Rooney's Tiger Lily.  Let that abomination sink in.

Was she in Fantastic Four?

Yeah, sorry Kate.

[grey ghost]

What happens when Singer leaves again, though?

Doug Liman (Bourne Identity, Edge of Tomorrow).

[Accursed Arachnid!™]

He's trolling the only people who reads that shit...

box office nerds.

This is one of those rare times when CinemaScore might actually mean something. C- for a summer action movie is crazy bad.

[RobinHood26]

LOL this turned out even worse than I thought. How epic. 

[redfirebird2008]

How the hell do you get a 29% RT audience rating on opening day? These are the fans trashing it. Even some films with pretty bad WOM like Spidey 3 managed over 50% on RT and that was after years of scrutiny. Wonder how low F4 will be once the DVD rental crowd sees it a year from now.

Sorry Jay, As I announced earlier, Fantastic Four is the true motion picture event of the summer, for so many reasons.

 

Jurassic World just beat some non adjusted box office records.

Saw THE GIFT. Solid thriller, more psychological than shocking or scary, though there are a couple of good jump scares. Nice showcase for Rebecca Hall. Critics may have overrated it a tad. But it's nice to see it doing well.

I don't know what happened to him really, he was like straight from True Detective Season 2 gifs.

[The Dark Rock]
