Everything GREAT About X-Men Origins Wolverine!

[@willofbob]

This is sort of off-topic, but I really like the rational behind why gambit uses cards as a weapon. His power is that he can turn anything he touches into an unstable explosive (it's a bit more complicated and pseudosciency than that, but that'll do for the moment), which really lends itself to throwing weapons. So what does he pick? Why not the thing you can buy in packs of 52 for a few bucks each and that no one will be suspicious of unless they already know who you are? They're just a good, sensible choice that also happen to be really badass and iconic.

@@LukeLovesRose let's also add Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man on that list too. Aside from the webs being organic(which isn't that big of a deal anyways), he's a perfect fit for the character. Not to say Tom Holland is shit in the role, but both the writers and his own acting seems to mess up on key aspects of the character... Damn sure Uncle Ben and how much he's a geek for the avengers is a bit... Dumb to be blunt. Compare it to how Tobey and Sam Raimi got the character, with someone who has to balance real life and crime fighting, and how that realistically weighs heavy on his shoulders. It's also something to note, that while Spider-Man by all means can and will fight with the avengers and other Marvel heroes, he isn't gonna slave his life away to becoming a part of a bigger team... Especially when his real life is still so majorly important. God I miss these older comic book movies, and that's not to say I don't enjoy a good chunk of what the MCU did with Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Ant Man, they did a lot of good with those characters... But... Juggling solo adventures AND a connected storyline just isn't as smoothly handled as you'd think. Damn sure the X-Men movies did have some issues as they began to want to invest time into solo ventures for more than just Wolverine, it only worked over time because they only ever ventured out into both Wolverine and Deadpool, everything else is centered where it should be, leaving it far more manageable... The only major issue is all the details mixed up over time, like how certain actors are at times replaced, and characters outright varying from certain portrayals. The major one comes from Sabertooth I think, because damn sure wasn't like the same actor from this movie had been the character since the original film. Though, this version of Sabertooth, while clearly not the original plan from the 1st film, he's much more of an interesting character, especially having that personal connection to Wolverine... It really makes me wish he was used more throughout future movies, as he just was such a great rival for Jackman's portrayal of Wolverine, and could have been amazing to see him actually in the solo Logan movie too.

LedPESRule the thing of it though? That actually *is* how Deadpool really was created. In that sense, they stayed more true than his standalone movie. He didn't have swords in his arms or laser eyes, but yeah. As a mutant terminator bioweapon, that was pretty spot on. If they didn't stitch his mouth closed (because that was just dumb) and left him as weapon XI, it would've fared much better.

[@TM-ul2ye]

Comiccow6 totally agree I thought he was really cool and like you said if it had been it's own character then it wouldv been that much cooler, When i saw this movie i didnt even know who deadpool was, like if you showed me a picture id be like yeah i know him ive seen him but i dont know his name, then i watch this movie thinking wow, this guy is scary and cool and knowing more about deadpool know and what his character is suppose to be then yeah i get the hate from true fans, and i like the actual deadpool character, im not a huge fan but i like him, but i honestly dont think this version deserves all the hate it gets, maby it does from the dedicated fans but i think it was definitely interesting, sure as hell better than what Apocalypse was suppose to be having multiple different powers.

[@AlexLove631]

This movie has some good stuff in it. The war montage is fucking awesome and very Wolverine. Liev Schriber as Victor is also fucking awesome. This is a great intro to Deadpool (minus the 3rd act). Especially since Ryan came up with his lines (this was made during the writer strike).. This movie has plenty of fantastic ideas and moments, but wasn't executed well due to poor writing and studio intervention.

[@nexusshark]

I just want to address the whole Deadpool issue. They mostly DID call him Weapon XI. And he is not actually Deadpool yet. He was basically an in-between step before becoming the actual Deadpool we know and love. The plan was for Weapon XL to become Deadpool after the events of the movie. He would've lost his heat vision and some other powers and his mouth would've been back as it was shown at the end.

He didn't just take the backlash because he would get paid, he took it so that he someone else and less interested in the character wouldn't fill his shoes. And it worked, since his good performance as Wade Wilson was recognized by the fans and their response and led into the Deadpool movie. IIRC test screenings were bad enough for him to say "I told you so" to the execs but they didn't have the time to make a proper suit and proper ending.

[@FraserSouris]

A few other points: Origins Deadpool manages to take down Logan and almost Decapitate him, something 2016 Deadpool might not be capable of. Also note that Logan manages to decapitate Origins Deadpool by slicing through his adamantium skeleton by superheating his claws via the laser blast, and in the Wolverine, his adamantium claws and the samurai armour get sliced by a superheated adamantium blade. Another thing I liked is, as quoted by the film's wiki: "some theaters' Easter egg endings, Weapon XI's hand is seen reaching for his severed head, and he opens his eyes and breaks the fourth wall (much like most other versions of him do) as by making a noise (a shushing noise to be exact, indicating that his survival is to remain a secret for now)." and that Deadpool's healing exceeds Logan's

[@TheDark4light]

Huh... Never noticed that. I'd always assumed that the swords were just implanted in weapon xi and those were adamantium since bone claws arent apart of Logan's mutation. Hell they apparently arent a mutation at all if you go by the cartoon that had an episode revolving around the x-men visiting an island that shut down their powers.

[@FraserSouris]

If they ever wanted to be realistic (like in the Wolverine), they could show that if Logan's powers are ever shut down, he would die from adamantium poisoning as part of his healing factor is now always dedicated to fighting that. Also I assume the bone claws a are a mutation in the film version because as a mutation is defined as "the changing of the structure of a gene, resulting in a variant form that may be transmitted to subsequent generations" they are the only explanation as to how he's able to control specialized bone in his forearms.

[@FraserSouris]

According to the X-Men movie Wiki, Stryker gave him an adamtium Skeleton and an artificial healing factor derived from Logan's (and a few others) genes that exceeds Logan's own healing prowess. Here are the quotes: "...as Weapon XI, "The Mutant Killer" - Deadpool (as Stryker explained - a "dead" mutant who had other powers "pooled" up into him). Stryker also seals Wade's mouth and gives him an Adamantium skeleton." "....Originally derived from Wolverine gene's (and possibly Sabretooth and other mutants). Wilson possesses a superhuman healing capabilities, able to instantaneously mend and regrow any part of his anatomy. While artificial, his healing is in fact superior to Wolverine's as he is able to survive decapitation." And as a student of biology, I'm guessing they primarily used Logan's bone marrow for the regeneration due to the presence and usage of stem cells for healing (similar to how the samurai tried to sap Logan's immortality in The Wolverine).

[@finito1989]

TheDark4Light, i know exactly what episode you're talking about and i must disagree. That island shut down his healing factor, but the claws remained because even though his "bone claws" were a mutation and were most likely shut down, the adamantium that coats his skeleton isn't part of a mutation. It was surgically inplanted and i think that means that the claws would remain because once adamantium sets into a form it is nearly impossible for it to lose its shape.

Wow, you made me look at this movie in a new light.. There were alot of cool parts to this movie. the only bad things were the CGI looks like it was done by a highschooler and of course Deadpool.. but even though he was "Deadpool" he was still pretty badass 😁👍

[@Knoxkuma13]

Idk if it's just me but I absolutely loved this movie, the only problem is DP but u just think of him as weapon 11 and not deadpool (I also thought weapon 11 was badass)

[@edchambers8383]

Victor Creed was an amazing character in this, he brought some needed depth to an otherwise dull villain (Saber Tooth). I would have liked to have seen Victor play a big part in the Logan film. While I don't feel this film was great it did have some really good moments and was generally entertaining. I don't think it was the worst Fox comic movie either, X-Men last stand and the fantastic 4 films were far worse. I would rate this one just above "The Wolverine" as well.

[@Syklonus]

Liev Schreiber should have been in Logan instead of that daft clone.

[@D_A_R_Y_L_]

2015 Fantastic 4 definitely is

[@dancingcarapace]

I personally _loved_ John Wraith. I think Will.I.Am added the *sass* Wraith needed. I mean, the dripping sarcasm and tongue-in-cheek attitude when he delivers the "Would you like a bucket" line is amazing.

[@shadow_raven1983]

Call me the black sheep of the fandom world but I liked this film, for the most part. When compared to The Wolverine, it had more plot, more twists and it had more of a point. The Wolverine was bland and that whole prediction about Wolverine dying was so blah. We all knew what was going to happen in the end. If Deadpool hadn't been brutalised in this film, it would probably get higher marks IMO. Bonus points though for Ryan Reynolds.....he proved in this film why he was the right choice to be Deadpool in the much better original film about him. Plus, Gambit is always a win even he wasn't in it much.

[@eggsbenedictcucumberbatch4336]

Shadow Ecco yeah I agree it was much more engaging than wolverine. Plus the actors in origins were more charismatic and likeable.

[@Leonardo-xz9xl]

Shadow Ecco Exactly, people say that the plot was weak or that Wolverine character was just a poppy and no longer a badass and i honestly don't understand them. The plot was great with some plot twist on the road and amazing scenes (the fight in the club, wolverine transformation in the lab, and the plot twist of his wife being alive, all great moments) and also the character development of Logan was done great; it shows that, despite being a badass killer, all he wanted was to have a normal life, but that his life and what he is will ALWAYS come to him to ruin his happiness (i really liked his scenes with his wife, i think it was one of the few times in the franchise that he is truly happy); and the tragic end is great: Logan is broken for everything thats happen to him, because he lost his chance of being happy with the death of his wife and he can't even remember why, he is broken and he doesn't know why so he can't do shit about it (the last scene of him drinking to remember was the best way to end the movie). Fuck all those winny deadpool fans, this is might not be a great wolverine adaptation but, on his own and despite some bad effects, this is an awesome movie on his own

[@eggsbenedictcucumberbatch4336]

Vaslui I agree

[@ilsukdyang8134]

Vaslui I wouldn't say the plot was great, but it was definitely better than most people give it credit for. The problem with this movie is in the execution. If you look at the action, plot, and character development, it's an enjoyable movie. They should've just called "Deadpool" Weapon XI though. Overall, I give it a score of 6 out of 10 (that means I liked it, just not abundantly so). Definitely better than The Wolverine, which I give a 5.

[@Leonardo-xz9xl]

Ilsuk D Yang fair enough

[@SHAVEMYCOIN]

I'm always happy when you post a video. I also forget you post on Fridays, but it makes my Fridays better.

[@WyoteCoyote]

Am...am I the only one who genuinely liked this movie...?

[@brandonwarren5198]

Nope

[@khatack]

I liked it as well. My second favorite X-men film to date, right after First Class.

[@themarvelanddcmarshlands]

I personally remember loving the movie a lot when I saw it in theaters. As I look back on it, it is still an enjoyable film if you're willing to accept the CGI claws (admit it, they were pretty bad) and Weapon XI (I refuse to call that character at the end Deadpool)

[@wasteland_gz]

Hatless ? Yes coz it's the worst movie

[@terryprice1691]

No this movie is a guilty pleasure for me.

[@AqibA.C.]

Right now, the world really needs something like this; reminding people of the good in things. Great job guys!

[@midsectionmark8956]

I always have great things to say about this movie! Thank goodness they made it and we have a whole trilogy of Wolverine movies I enjoyed. Truly one of the best comic hero’s and Hugh Jackman was the only beast that could do him justice. Going to watch it again tonight.

[@nicetwin9734]

i actually liked this movie when i first saw it. Granted, that was before i became a comic book nerd and super hero nerd but this movie was what introduced me to superheros in the first place, so i have to thank this movie.

[@StupidMarioBros1Fan]

You forgot another great thing about this film: If you pirate the movie you get unfinished special effects that are hilariously bad, with some strangely having (in my opinion) better color pallets. Very weird but it makes it even funnier. xD Now I got to go watch that special effects comparison video someone made of this movie. XD

[@uhobme2028]

Your skills of Percuasion are Impeccable as always Still not the best film in the franchise But I can tolerate it

[@bobpolo2964]

Persuasion*

[@TheLeadhound]

I always liked this movie more than most people. I can tell you that I have never heard a louder cheer in a movie theater than watching this in Ontario and Wolverine saying "I'm Canadian." When Stryker asks him to serve his country.

[@LonkinPork]

Honestly, the thing I'm still most rattled over is the fact that this is the only X-Men movie with Gambit in it. And he got so little screen time that you could only pull four Wins out of him (two of which were references to other Taylor Kitsch roles). I remember hearing rumors about Channing Tatum being in talks about a Gambit standalone YEARS ago (which a quick Google tells me has recently been slated for a Valentine's Day 2019 release, and as of today has cast more than just Channing Tatum himself [Lizzy Caplan, to be specific]), but beyond that the character seems to semi-ironically get no love from the screenwriters.

[@wwhhaatt]

You guys never disappoint me, with the movies you're willing to review

[@ffnendhgrgd]

One thing Wolverine and Jason Bourne have in common is they both got shot right in the memories

[@EtherealDoomed]

Finally, someone else who actually likes this movie! I didn't love it, but I had fun, especially since I didn't make the Deadpool connection and so didn't get upset at the climax

[@FEARSOME-GODZILLA-24]

Finally someone who says a lot of good things about this movie. This is my favorite Wolverine movie ever

[@svenheilbron]

At 6:12, those 4 diamonds in the middle of the x should fall down because they are not attached to anything anymore, now they just kinda float there...

[@isaiahc.6699]

Confirmed: Wolverines do not howl.

[@eggsbenedictcucumberbatch4336]

C Port i was looking for this comment. I genuinely wanted to know.

[@Jackylification]

Eggs Benedict Cucumberbatch same here. Glad I know

[@X-EN7171]

Fun Fact: When Hugh Jackman first did Wolverine he didn't know that Wolverines existed, because of this he took on inspiration from wolves. That's why he Sniffs and howls sometimes... Maybe not howl... A yell maybe... IDK Anyway you get the point, he acted like a wolf to appear more ferocious, wild, and animalistic. They liked it so much and thought it was a great addition to the character so they kept jt

[@Leonardo-xz9xl]

YES, think you so much for this, i love this movie and it dont deserve the hate it gets

[@masterpenguin8472]

Yeas it freaking does! How can you literally forgive them for ruining Deadpool this badly? And the main story is boring and uninteresting too. Plus, the CGI effects look horribly fake, especially Wolverine's adamantium claws. And not to mention that Gambit was only given minimum screen-time.

[@masterpenguin8472]

@Thomas Durante Not anymore mate. I mean Dark Phoenix flopped so hard, Fox had to be put in Disney's hands!

[@Tammy-lc5cy]

hey could you do The Wolverine next (the one where he's in Japan)?

[@cartooncritic7045]

Daniel Cole That one was alright. It had its fair share of problems and is ultimately rather forgettable, but it was kinda okay.

[@redblood7810]

Some people think "hey, why doesn't deadpool just aim up with his laser eyes" because HE CAN'T SEE, just like Cyclops but to an even lesser degree, it's a beam of pure plasma blazing from his retna and cornea sections of his eyes

[@pradhyumnprabhudatta5216]

I know that this is too late however at around 4:40, Wolverines don't howl. They make a sound which is like a mix of a low growl and a snarl. I apologise for the late comment and if anyone has already pointed this one out, awesome. I love your videos.

[@PurpleSnake]

I accept that Deadpool and his design and to *some* extent even find it enjoyable. Doesn't even compare to the new (old if you will) version of him, though! But for what it is I *personally* don't find him as bad as 99.99999% of everyone says he is.

[@_Azagoth_]

kill me, but i like this movie, its about entertainment and i was entertained throughout the whole film. I also loved the brother dynamic, and deadpool was great. I didnt mind what they did to deadpool, as it was pretty badass and made sense to what stryker would do. the fight scenes were awesome and the characters were great. this is a really underrated movie, too many over obsessed deadpool fans. I love deadpool but i still loved weapon 11.

[@SPIDERVENOM1000]

fully agree

[@ghostbusterdal1]

if weapon 11 wasnt supposed to be deadpool, then people wouldnt have had a problem with him. I had no idea who deadpool was at the time, so i thought he was badass, i still think he is badass. Because they made up for it, and we now have the real deadpool.

[@raiden6428]

3:32 Thank you so very much for saying "weapon eleven" rather than "weapon ex-eye (XI)". I noticed that quite a few people say "weapon ex" when it comes to Wolverine, rather than "weapon ten". I feel that people should read the Roman numerals as they are meant to be read, as numerals, not letters.

[@raynwolfsbane2084]

Excellent point about Sabretooth having super PTSD and examining his psychology

[@nicolesmith2297]

Other than Hugh Jackman as Wolverine in general Wolverine goodness one of the reasons why I still like this movie it's so far it's the only big screen live action version of my favorite X-Men Gambit which is done really well even for having a bit part

[@Great_Olaf5]

I think that Storm being one of those kids being saved deserves its own win point.

[@thomashuffcutt9414]

Everything Great About CinemaWins. Come on. You have 320K subs. It's about time.

[@Spittin_Sax]

Thomas Huffcutt he based his channel on cinema sins but I don't think he's gonna take one of their specific video ideas

[@thomashuffcutt9414]

He should.

[@movieblocks9164]

I truly liked what they did with deadpool. He is still the merc with a mouth (until the end) and Ryan Renolds played him great in this movie. The end credit scene where he came back and he got his mouth back put everything back to normal. But I do like this deadpool or this Wade Wilson at least.

[@devingendron2287]

It's interesting hiring the bit about "never a better wolverine" given that they way they're headed after Logan's success is that they won't try for a new logan, but will do a new Wolverine. Namely, X-23 with the current actress, continuing her roll. Cause she rocked that.

[@donaldsossamon5095]

everything great about movie 43

[@masterpenguin8472]

Nothing.

[@chadfarrell5457]

Donald Sossamon the credits

[@beholdnonsense5100]

nice John Carter reference! are you going to do a video on that movie?

[@christophersouza1533]

+Kathy Aird Let's hope so...

[@wafflingmean4477]

While I don't believe going against source material is good in any way, come on, this wasn't a terrible movie. It has some problems but it still has an interesting story and characters.

[@marknelson55]

9:39 “memories aren’t physical brain matter that wolverine can grow back” Except that memories are stored in the connections between neurons of the brain, which are physical matter.

[@that.canadian.vaper.guyTCVG]

I honestly really love the Logan and Victor being brothers story. It makes sense as to why Sabretooth loves to torment Logan, as they grew up for literal decades together, fighting, going to wars, seeing the worst of humanity. Victor losing his humanity in these wars while Logan tried to hold onto his humanity, while both are constantly fighting their animalistic nature's under the duress and trauma they've suffered from. Not to mention Victor's mental health factoring in, essentially growing up as his younger brothers servant, always fighting with the notion that his younger brother is a better version of himself. So while Logan ultimately forgets who he is, he steps in every year on his birthday to remind him that his older brother is still there and will always understand him more than he even knows himself since he no longer has his memories.

[@skibot9974]

1:50 false. He was Moto Moto in Madagascar Escape 2 Africa

[@sunilpermaul7876]

They should have sewed Wade's mouth shut as a nod to what Striker said earlier in the movie, but then should have had Logan cut his mouth early in the fight. Wade should have then been like "UH!! Thank you *wise crack*" it would have been somewhat acceptable that way.

[@warriorspiritmovers2589]

Sunil Permaul you know? I like that. Quips and 4th wall breaks while flipping atop the reactor wall would have been much better

[@olivermendonca9545]

I actually like this movie a lot

[@wintersoldier164]

victor is interesting to me because as you said it shows how war affect people. Victor is a soldier who has been in almost every war, some time people in war become addicted to it, the adrenalin of the war, and they chase war where ever they go, start fights, kill, because it feels like without a war, they have no purpose

[@davidbow-tie]

Another win: The idea that Fred Dukes has become morbidly obese while retaining his super strength. It's a better explanation of his powers than in the comics and gives him his own little arc to go through.

[@ther3aper561]

Ok, I will say this. This movie is very decent, and a great action popcorn flick. And the "deadpool" they use would have been a great villain had they not tried making it deadpool.

[@DarkMProductions]

Besides the obvious flaws with the film, I think one of the main reasons this movie ultimately doesn't work is that it moves way too fast. Like it was gutted in the editing room of all humanity and heart. There are hints of it here and there, but I get the feeling that all the stuff with Logan and Silverfox was cut way back. I can imagine they cut out more than an hour of the film, most of which was probably their relationship, but the studio was like, "This is boring, we need more action". But that's just an educated guess on my part.

[@turquoiseapple57]

This movie is a guilty pleasure of mine

[@HouseMDaddict]

I LOVED the reference in Deadpool 2 when he tries to do the bullet deflection with his swords and he just gets riddled with bullets. As much as this movie's Deadpool was not what carried over into the stand alone films, I love that Deadpool himself references his "old self"

[@deuterium_oxide7382]

i get this recommended 7 hours after watching this movie for the first time, interesting

[@Phoenix2312]

I really enjoyed Van Helsing! Yeah - Its dumb but so what? Its a great movie... It does what its supposed to and entertains... Does it have sins? Of course! But its entertaining and gets way too much bad press!

[@jordanalves41]

Dylan Smith definitely want to see him do creed

[@jacobaarum]

Van Helsing gets a lot of hate for stupid ass reasons and GL, I liked it, it wasn't great but it's the only GL adaptation we have.

[@TheSmokingSkull]

The thing no one ever seems to realize about Weapon XI is this: his skin, including the markings on his body and his sewn-over mouth, look exactly like Deadpool's costume. Seriously, I went to all the trouble of putting a picture of Weapon XI into Photoshop and coloring his skin red... and I saw Deadpool. His eyes also have the diamond-like shapes of the Deadpool mask, as it was pointed out in the video, and his eyes literally turn white just like the character.

[@ecliptorcalrissian5014]

Yeah, they did put nods to him in the design. But Deadpool is more than the mask. He's the wisecracking Merc With a Mouth, not the Tattooed Drone With No Mouth.

[@xXkeiran1097Xx]

Oh that makes it all better now...

[@majoraswrath1417]

Having known nothing about Deadpool before seeing this movie, I absolutely loved the final sequence. Now that I know about Deadpool, I can see why people were upset, but the nostalgia lets me continue loving it. Again, I understand why so many were upset, but I still wish that people could look past the flaws and see what I see: An epic final showdown in an awesome set-piece where the protagonist and antagonist team up against an even greater evil (A trope I love to death) against a Frankenstein of mutant powers, embodying the whole "Perfect lifeform" trope.

[@kingassassin9664]

You are so right with that big brother line

[@GAdmThrawn]

While X-Men got Sabertooth's look right, this movie got his character right. If Sabertooth is in any other X-Men movies then Liv Schrieber should be cast as him. Maybe in the solo X-23 movie where he hunts her? Maybe even be paired up with Logan's son since he also has a major grudge against him?
