End Credits of Wolverine (SPOILER)
Rob Jensen
what it is, but there's yet another tag/small scene at the very end of
the end credits of Wolverine: X-Men Origins (which I think is more
appropriate than the actual titie). It's waaaaay more subtle than the
end-credit tag at the end of X3 (but then again, X3 sucked and
Wolverine is just a decent-(heh)-ish journeyman superhero movie.

There's two.

Quiz. At the end of the movie there is a cameo appearance related to
the X-Men, comic books and film. What error is demonstrated with the
cameo?
The answer points to what is wrong with the film 'Wolverine'.

If you're referring to Xavier standing, the end of Wolverine was about
20 years before X-Men I. The dates are probalby a bit off, as we saw
him in the chair in X-Men III when recruiting Jean, who was younger at
the time than Scott was here and clearly older than him in the X-Men
films. But it's also possible that Xavier was a projection - he
looked "off" and the intent may have been that he wasn't really there.
Either way, not really that big of a deal.
Hal.

If you're talking about the person in the Deus Ex Helicopter that
saves the kids, then there is no error.
>The answer points to what is wrong with the film 'Wolverine'.
There are actual things wrong with Wolverine. The incident you cite
is NOT one of them. Or are you also going to bitch that Logan and
Victor are actually brothers? Or that Silver Fox is now a character
-- a stereotype, yeah, but an actual character rather than a mere plot
device.
Two of the most glaring errors in the movie, IMNSHO -- the two
instances of the Crane Shot of Rage ("Noooooo!!!" screamed Waylon
Smithers) within the first 20 minutes of the movie. The Crane Shot of
Rage should never, ever, EVER be used again in a non-satirical
context. Much less twice in the same movie.
Oh, and I really, really wanted the kindly old farmer to open up a
small box of Kryptonite and say, "Just checking."

Reportedly, there are two different final scenes, and any given showing of
the movie only shows one of them.

No, I meant there's two of those. Two post credit sequences were filmed
and split 50/50 between all prints randomly.
One was utterly pointless for everyone and the other is one that nobody
into comics would care about. Genius.

Yes, it's the remains of not-Deadpool pulling itself towards the severed
head then the eyes opening.

The scene with Stryker and the MPs is in every print.
Apparently there are two different scenes at the very end of the movie, split
among the various prints being shown. Some people get Wolverine in Japan,
and some people get Deadpool's body reaching for his decapitated head, with
his eyes subsequently opening. The latter is the one I saw.

I obviously got the Japan one. Trust me, just from the sounds of it,
you got the better one, so wait to see the Japan ending when the movie
comes out on DVD. *Might* have been worth recommending if the hot
bartender lady had been named Yukio or, less plausibly, Mariko.

'20 Years before X-Men 1'. Oh hell no! Not when Scott Summers is shown
as being 17 or 18 in Wolverine and 27 or 28 in X-Men, if that.
Xavier standing is nothing more or less than the filmmakers ignoring the
character's history. Sorry.
Ignoring the character's history. Not a big deal - for the morons for
whom this movie was made.
William George Ferguson
I hate to break it to you, but in the comics themselves, Chuck and Cain
weren't in the Korean War anymore (and Reed and Ben aren't WWII vets, and
Tony didn't trip a landmine in Vietnam).
Plus the fact that movie continuity isn't, and hasn't been, comic
continuity. This is true of all movies based on comics, so I guess you
should pass on the other offenders like Batman, Superman, Watchmen, Sin
City, 300, and so forth.

Just re-watched X-Men I tonight - Prof X claims that the Weapon X
process occured 15 years before the first movie. .

Dude, I just said they violated their own continuity if he was
"really" standing there. Considering that he looked >worse< then he
did in X-Men III in the flashbacks and those effect tend to get better
as time goes on, I'm leaning towards that it was supposed to be a
mental or holographic projection.

Really? I think ignoring the stupid Lucifer story is a bonus.

Which history? Mainstream universe or Ultimate?
> Really? I think ignoring the stupid Lucifer story is a bonus.
Is Lucifer the one who did it in the X-Movies, or Magento?
