Agreed. I don't it's meant to be taken literally at all, either.
I'm one of the few that actually admits to liking Origins,so if it's at least as good as that,I'll be happy.
And again I keep asking, "What immortality?!!".
He ain't Thor.
No problem. Here ya go!
Pretty much all we got in the teasers was meant to hammer us on the head with loudness and action. Would have preferred to seen more subtlety and the quieter moments but I guess they were trying to make up for the delay with more action set pieces.While I don't think the action will be what I envision, I think what is far more important is the writing of the characters and the story. And you can't see that in a trailer.
Origins biggest problem, more then Logan looking absolutely ridiculous in the majority of the combat or them "messing up Deadpool", was how little substance it had. Everything in between the fight scenes rang hollow. Broad, uninteresting strokes that matched the fight scenes and 1-D characters. The one moment Origins had me was Kayla's saving of Logan. It had genuine emotion.
This looks pretty goofy to me right now, but if they nail that stuff, well I'll get over those little problems pretty quickly.
The one thing that turns me off is the DI used on it. I'm tired of post-production color correction turning nice action movies into Terminator 2, starring a cast of living oranges.
Didn't you see the deleted scene in Origins where Christopher Lambert turns up and says "there can be only one"?
But honestly though. I would blame the comics. They have turned Logan's healing factor into a joke. However I think the term may be used loosely here. I wouldn't go getting in such a twist over it.
I mean living for a very very very long time due to a superpowered healing factor and living forever and ever could seem like splitting hairs. From Logan's point of view it may as well be immortality because he doesn't know how much longer he will live and if there's a way to actually kill him.
Well, given that this is all from the studio that said the Silver Surfer get's his powers from his board......can ya blame us?

But that film and a bunch of other crap was made under the management of Tom Rothman, who isn't even the head of 20th Century Fox anymore.
What is Viper acting supposed to be doing in the face pulling scene? I don't get the reason.
I think that's just the perspective. A Sentinel Silver Samurai armour would be a daft idea and turn the film into a weird anime mech story (Super big Robo-Samurai guy 6 lol)

Oh, I'm not gonna throw a fit about it. But it does underly a problem I've had with most superhero/comics films: subtlety.....or more correctly the lack thereof.
And I'd say Fox as a studio is probably the single biggest offender in that respect.
Nah, I'll admit it made me smirk.
Doesn't the sleek SS look extra big? Am I the only one who thinks he's sentinel sized?
It looks kinda big. I can't tell if it's the perspective. Maybe this uber company helps create the Sentinels for DOFP?
Sorry, I don't quite follow. I'm not sure how you go from a complaint about labeling Wolverine immortal to 'lack of subtlety'. I don't see the common thread.
