You guys are over exaggerating, right? That bad?

That bad. Maybe even worse.

it's actually very strange how bad it is.

it doesn't seem that strange to me. it's just bad in that it's the most Comic Book Movie i've ever seen with nothing separating it from anything else other than CLAWS.

if they don't this will end up in the IMDB bottom 100 for sure...

no way. in fact i wouldn't be surprised if it hits the top 250 for the first couple days. comic fans are going to eat it up like birthday cake.

Christopher McQuarrie has been tapped by 20th Century Fox to write the sequel to "X-Men Origins: Wolverine," the film that Hugh Jackman is developing to reprise his role as razor-clawed protag Logan.

The studio hasn't yet determined timing or whether Gavin Hood will return as director. McQuarrie has a history with "X-Men," as he worked on the first film with director Bryan Singer but didn't take a credit.

He pitched his take several days ago for a storyline that is set in Japan and based on the Chris Claremont-Frank Miller comicbook series "The Samurai." Story centers on Logan's evolution into a samurai.

Jackman is producing with John Palermo and Lauren Shuler Donner. McQuarrie most recently scripted and produced "Valkyrie."
