10.18.2010 Darren Aronofsky is directing Wolverine 2

About the nicest thing anyone can say about ‘X-Men Origins: Wolverine’ is that it was in color and the lines to see it were short, yet somehow Hugh Jackman has lined up two of the absolute best screenwriters and directors in Hollywood to make the sequel. Deadline Hollywood says…

Darren Aronofsky’s deal to direct 20th Century Fox’s X-Men Origins: Wolverine 2 is close enough that discussion has turned to shooting the sound stage portions of the film in New York.
A March start date is being eyed so that Aronofsky has time to open Black Swan and be available for the inevitable awards season obligations. When the New York scenes are completed, they’ll head to Japan to shoot the bulk of the Christopher McQuarrie-scripted movie.

It’s almost shocking that the great McQuarrie (who won a screenwriting Oscar for ‘The Usual Suspects’), and Aronofsky, who is expected to be an Oscar nominee for ‘Black Swan’ and who is at least the equal of Wes Anderson, David Fincher, Spike Jonze, Tarsem Singh (‘the Fall’) and Yimou Zhang (‘Curse of the Golden Flower’) when it comes to making visually interesting movies, would make ‘Wolverine 2′. It’s so beneath them I would have been embarrassed to even ask. It would be like if Kubrick made ‘Big Mamas House 3′. Twice the running time means twice the laughs!

    I love the smell of napalm in the morning.

    Well, at least it looks like they are going to do the Japanese saga from the 70’s.

    Could be cool.

    Nice call, Rem.

    Your comic book geekiness is showing.

    Boba Fett,

    That’s nice work.

    I hope her muff matches the boots.

    I know, at least I’m not a Gleek.

    Seriously though, think Kill Bill part 1 with Wolverine instead of The Bride

    Yet another stupid movie….

  9. rokan 10/18/2010 11:18

    I’m with Rem on this one.

    Pepper hasn’t been to the movies since Fatty Arbuckle died.

    Think Kill Bill 1 .. So Wolverine is out for revenge after his male fiance is murdered and his baby stolen!? Wow that guy is a mutant alright.

    The first was shit and deadpool got raped.

    Fuck it. Harry Potter is out soon.

  12. Watt 10/18/2010 11:19

    Oh, happy monday ass burglars.

  13. RemSteale 10/18/2010 11:22

    Putting it like that, it would certainly appeal to a different audience Bushpig.

    Watt, you find some stunning pics sometimes

    Every time I try to write a comment I see Rem’s avi and I forget whatever I was thinking..

    Rem,

    Watt has such an eye for hot chicks that he is either a major player with an 8 inch cock who is knee-deep in Utah ass 24/7, or a frustrated, semi-virginal asthmatic with a Fleshlight.

    Its a coin flip for me.

  16. RemSteale 10/18/2010 11:31

    You should view it full size Pump, you may never write a coherent sentence again..

    Fleshlight Roke, fleshlight……….

  17. Watt 10/18/2010 11:32

    Roke: option two.

  18. pepperjr. 10/18/2010 11:35

    Rem..who is she?

  19. rokan 10/18/2010 11:36

    Shhhhhhh . . . .

    Let me have my illusions about Watt.

    I also think his 6′2, 225 and played quarterback for Provo Community College.

    Go Eagles!!!
