The bar has been raised with ‘The Dark Knight’. So much so that it is going to take a Herculean effort for any comic-book genre film to compare from here on. The X-Men movies, for the most part, were pretty good efforts. The first two in particular were grand. The stand-out was always Hugh Jackman and his effortless portrayal of Wolverine. He nailed the role perfectly.
I still remember the chills I got up my spine when he first appears on screen in the first X-Men movie.
A Wolverine flick was inevitable. It was a mere rumour for several years, but now it is indeed reality and the HD trailer is now out.
As far as trailers go, it certainly teases a lot. There’s Gambit (played by Taylor Kitsch), Sabretooth, Storm, Deadpool et al. There’s action. (natch!) There’s Jackman constantly crouching and with claws ready to strike… and there’s a whole origin film to unfold – cue Weapon X for all you fanboys & girls out there.
When all is said and done, I for one am looking forward to this one!
