I just hope they stay true. From what Ive seen in the previews, hes got his claws as a kid. Um, no. I get them having to use literary license, like him and Sabretooth not knowin each other in the first movie, but the claws as a kid? C'mon...

On a side note Ive read that Daniel Negraneu has a part in the film. Dont know how big of a part, but could be interesting...

they shoulda just stuck to the original miniseries imo. Japan, ninjas, etc. Then they coulda gone back and told the origin story. They always try to cram too many goddamned characters into these movies and it makes them weak.

The original miniseries? The one that introduced, I forget the name, but he was somw sorta vampire? And had 2 women helping Wolverine, one of which was formerly SpiderWoman? And the grey Hulk comes in around the 5th issue?

But I do agree, they do focus more on quantity than quality. Letting B.Singer leave to direct SupermanReturns instead of X3 was a horrible mistake...

I was very skeptical of the claws as a kid thing as well. My room mate came in and explained it to me and I kept telling him " No, Wolverine got his claws from an experiment when he was in his adult years. " He kept trying to convince me that I was wrong. Upon watching the movie I get it now. I am not a X-Men loremaster or anything but it definitely makes sense from the casual X-Men fan.

I don't want to spoil the movie for anyone so hopefully you know what I am talking about.

      Panthers Preseason

      By frankw · Posted

      Ideally Bryce and the other starters should get at least a full quarter and an argument could be made for 2 full quarters given how they've played early in the season the last few years.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By CRA · Posted

      A rookie that has never played a snap and a proven 1000K NFL WR are not going to be viewed the same in these type rankings.  And calling draft picks, lotto picks, isn't some new quip I just invented.  take the big 3 Hubbard, AT, insert whatever 3rd Panther you want vs Kamara, Hill, Olave.  Most football folks outside of Carolina are picking the Saints there IMO.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.
