I'm probably being a little bitch about them trying to show the character's range and complexity but I like my Wolverine to be borderline murderous psycho.
Ya think? He was kicking ass left and right... he just refused to use his claws. At least until certain events involving the Hulks.

While I understand your reluctance to accept a new Wolverine... I think this opens up all manner of new possibilities. I, also, don't think her being the new Wolverine means we no longer see Jackman.
*calling my shot*
Professor X is perma-killed in the franchise. This, and not being able to leave a clone of himself alone in the world, causes Logan to shake out of his self imposed exile and rejoin the fight. He goes around finding the remaining heroes of old he can, and any new ones, and rebuilds the X-men with Logan as the leader. With the McAvoy's jaunt through history drawing closer to the original movies... this would allow them to tell new stories and leave the original films/story line alone.
Personal note... Would be super cool if some of the original X-Men were to eventually make a cameo, for example, an old as shit Kelsey Grammer returning as Beast still running a now underground Jean Gray school for the gifted. [Reply]
Life is depressing enough as it is and this moving looks like on the depressing side I'm not sure I want to see it. It looks good enough but also sad throughout the trailer. [Reply]

Yes...and I'm loving the trailer.. I'm looking forward to this movie. 16 years of hugh as wolverine...should be a kickass sendoff. Def feels like a character drama than superhero movie. [Reply]
Not digging the dystopian post apocalyptic country desert setting. I find the trailer underwhelming, but some trailers are just bad & not very representative, so I will hold off judgment of the film itself. [Reply]
