Has anyone seen both the bootleg and finished product yet? Just wondered if there more than what was in the bootleg, besides some special effects.

Yeah. It is missing the helicopter scene, the scene with Wovlverine being thrown at a moving semi-truck, and some others.

I forget which one it is, but it has great quality as something like a dvd movie feel to it.

Remember: it is sharing, not stealing. ;)

Gambit was cool in the movie... I would have went a different way with the acter...

After everyone has seen it, I want to discuss the end of credits clip... don;t want to spoil...

Apparently that are 5 or 6 different ones...

It would've been better if Gambit was played by Johnny Depp and the ending entails that the sequel would be in the development where Wolverine and Gambit travel together and getting in such a hell of a trouble. Would make a great odd couple/dynamic duo superhero movie.

The trailers show wolverine as a little boy with those metal implants. But it was already established in an earlier movie that the metal lining his bones and those metal claws were implants put in because of his mutations. His mutation was an amazing ability to heal which also seemed to slow down his aging process. Because of the efficiency of his cellular regeneration.

Looks like they just want to keep changing his history and his mythology over and over and over. Okay, so he was originally supposed to be a brief, throw away character. But the popularity of the character made him a permanent character. You would at least think the movies would have kept the story they decided on in the first installment of the x-men.


My understanding was that he had the "claws" because of his mutation and that the metal titanium coating just made him more invinsible.

You got everything correct but one. That is the metal is not titanium but instead is a fictional metal called adamantium. It is the most indestructible metal in the Marvel Universe.

Yeah. Remember it too. It was a mini series that consist of some elements of Gambit's origin in New Orleans. Something to do with the Assassin Guild and the Theif Guild, which the latter was something Gambit was a member of.

Yeah, too many comic book reading in my youth. LOl

I haven't seen it yet but plan too. I watch movies for entertainment, not to dissect them. But thanks for all the information I have read about it and the comic books. I will also be watching for the "eye candy", lol.
