Leaked Wolverine Origin Trailer Makes the Rounds

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the yes-have-some dept.

Uriah noted that the Comic Con wolverine origins trailer has been circulating in high quality camcorder form, very conveniently broken into a first and second part. Despite the terrible camera angle, the movie looks pretty good ... at least, while we wait for the Avengers.

    Gee, I wonder how all these trailers are being "leaked" all of a sudden... are management types finally clued into the power of internet buzz?

      Actually, I recall watching a "leaked" copy of The Devil's Rejects (it may have been House of 1000 Corpses, but I'm 75% sure it was Rejects). It was obviously a well-placed tripod at a private screening (nice theater, small screen relative to multiplexes) - Crystal clear audio. The interesting thing was that, at the very start, there was some ass-hole with a cowboy hat blocking part of the screen. He stood up during the opening credits and walked out of the theater. I don't know for certain that it was Rob Zombie, but it sure as hell looked like him when you caught his profile.

    I don't think the chip would be necessary. I'd bet you could really distort the quality of what it records by putting some light that blasts out a wavelength just outside of what's visible to us, but the camcorder is flooded by it.

    This seems too easy, probably would have been done already.

    You could, and the military has a large body of research on this (related to jamming security cameras). Part of the problem is that you need to use a laser, and people might get upset when (not if) your laser hits their eyes. An IR laser might do it, but that will still be detrimental to a person's movie viewing experience (and I don't know what a class IIIa IR laser would do to a retina anyway).

  4. Why is The Blob and Gambit in this? by Daswolfen · · Score: 5, Interesting

    This is what I hate generally hate about comic book movies (and this applies to all movies made from print media sources). I understand that you have to make some changes because you are dealing with years of back story and have squeeze it into 2 hours.

    But that said, would it kill them to at least keep the story straight rather than add characters who had nothing to do with the Weapon X program? Blob and Gambit had NOTHING to do with the weapon x program (not even in any sort of retcon'ed timeline). Where is Maverick, Mastadon and Kestrel? They are not listed on IMDB on the cast list (but Blob, Gambit, Deadpool and gent Zero (the latter two were involved in later incarnations of the Weapon X program, not Wolverine's origin).

    So maybe I am being a picky fan boy, and the movie does look awesome, but would it kill them to get it right for once?
