Its the ones closest to you that hurt you the most.
I have a lot of hope for X-Men Origins Wolverine. I have been reveling in these movies for a long time now. As a comic book collector I have been waiting a LONG time and this is a golden age. Then some retard steals the movie and puts in on the net unfinished. A lot of the criticism trying to rain on my parade are basing their assessment of the movie on an unfinished cut.
But this assessment is based off an unfinished workprint that is said to be missing some footage and a lot of effects.
Director Gavin Hood said that Fox had a tradition of hiding “easter eggs” in their films (the hidden scene at the end of X-Men: The Last Stand, for example), and although he didn’t say how many different endings there would be, at least one of them is related to the Deadpool character. Apparently Fox is hoping that fanboys will go see the movie multiple times in order to see each of the different stingers after the credits.
I have no doubt that they would want to add footage, finish the movie, hell they might even be taking the critiques as the biggest un-invited test market of all to make some tweaking changes.
But multiple endings?? Does this just sound like “insurance for boxoffice receipts” to you?
I am torn, because if this leak never happened I would probably geek over this like a good little fanboy. But right now it feels like a counteroffer.
I don’t want this to taint my anticipation of the film, but on the other hand it might actually give me more hope as the idea sets in.
