Yeah, I thought it was the same effect that they did at the beginning of X3 where CGI was used to make them look younger. But either way, it was a pretty bad CGI job.

Couldn't make-up just do a better job? I hear there is this pop-singer fella...and in his music video they made it appear that he changed into a werewolf...and then he looked like a zombie! It was THRILLING!

Yea, it was the same thing they did in X3. It was Stewart with a CGI lift. Except it looks terrible in this one. Doesn't make much sense does it?

All of the effects stunk in this one.

Wolverine's blades looked horrible...
John's teleporting was horrible compared to Nightcrawler (who was done perfectly IMO).
Don't get me started on the Blob.
Weapon XI's head falling and rotating around in a perfect circle on tilting or anything... COME ON!

I just don't understand how you can go backwards. X2 had great effects.
Nightcrawler really wow'd me.

Also...

Wolverine had the claws since birth (we're assuming). Prior to the Adamantium, his claws were bone.
1. Why did they become perfect blades when they were coated with Adamantium? They were "spikes" when they were bone.
2. He never showed any pain when the blades/bone came out...even when he was a child. Now go back to X2...in the flashback, he is shown screaming in pain when the claws penetrated his skin (with blood pouring out). Why no blood? Even as a child? I understand why he doesn't have scars...but why no blood? Plenty of blood in X2...and he even said to Rogue in X-Men that they hurt when they come out.

Nightcrawler is THE best X-Man. I will debate anyone on this.:D

In the comics, he has the bone claws, and it's never been explained how they became perfect blades. But personally, I'm okay with chalking this one up to being a comic book.

As for the blood...I got nothing.:shrug:

Nobody much is talking about the first added scene with the credits rolling . . . understandable since it wasn't very exciting.

Stryker walking, military police stop him. "You are wanted for questioning in the death of General . . . ."

yawn - but hey, if he was really under the hypnotic suggestion, why did he comply with the police command? ADD?

And as for the second, I got the "Wolverine in a bar" option.

another yawn. Yeah, we know he lost his memory. There were a few movies about that. :lol:


I liked the movie itself well enough though.

edit: after reading some comments about the post-credits extra scene, I guess it was more than met the eye. Sitting in the theater though, waiting through the credits for that . . . had to say it was disappointing.

Thought the same.

2. He never showed any pain when the blades/bone came out...even when he was a child.

Even better, after all the stabbing and shots, Wolverine has a shirt with rips and holes in it but no blood stains....:confused:

Yea....my son looked at me and said "You made me wait all this time for that?"

How many people were employed on this movie for continuity?

What? You want continuity and logic in a movie? How dare you ask for such an unreasonable request? You should know better than that... :lookaroun
