X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Hugh Jackman reprises the role that made him a superstar - as the fierce fighting machine who possesses amazing healing powers, retractable claws and a primal fury in 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine.' Leading up to the events of X-Men, 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine' tells the story of Wolverine's epically violent and romantic past, his complex relationship with Victor Creed, and the ominous Weapon X program. Along the way, Wolverine encounters many mutants, both familiar and new, including surprise appearances by several legends of the X-Men universe whose appearances in the film series have long been anticipated (Ryan Reynolds (yay) as Deadpool (boo)). Opens May 1.

As much of a comic book fanboy as I am, I still don't know if I'm gonna see this. I just don't care for the lame origin they decided to saddle Wolverine with. I wish Marvel had just gone ahead with Chris Claremont's original origin with Sabretooth as his father.

Wolverine looks hot
