I guess they could always focus on the Origins comics and tell some of Wolvies past, but then that might be a little bit boring for alot of people.
Well good luck to Jackson, he really has done a good job with Wolverine and I hope this film will do the character some justice.
But, people are right to say that Xmen 1,2 and 3 were all essencially Wolverine movies anyway.

(Drooling) Oh don't get me started about cross-overs. Oh what I would do to see them. Think about it, in New York alone, you have Fab 4, Spidey, Iron Man, X-Men, DareDevil etc. They would never do it, because of corporate red tape and wouldn't get same actors, but Oooooh the possibilities!!!

I think cross-overs are a great idea! Bring in Spiderman with the X-Men and we have a winning start.
I want to see pretty much every decent comic made More

As long as this doesn't turn out to be the stinking pile of puke that Elektra was this should be fine. Just remember to give some acknowledgement to the previous films and keep what made them so good. Wolverine should finnally get the screen time he deserves without a bunch of useless and far too numerous teeny boppers clogging everything up. OK so a couple of X-men would be good, Sabretooth could make a comback, Beast would be a coplimentory companion and of course Magneto (tag teaming with ano More

Eh? Wasn't the issue of Wolverine's casting sorted ages ago? Most fans consider him perfectly cast.
As I said before, I'd like to see this with a lower budget and more grit. Of course, David Benioff should do fine: he says he's writing it with an R in mind. More

With seemingly no writer or director attached at this point, it's hard to get enthusiastic about it. Jackman has seemed wrong to me as Wolverine from the start (too tall, too young, doesn't do "berserker rage" convincingly enough, etc.), and this just stinks of "cash-in" so far. Go on, Hollywood-surprise me. Make this a viable project. I dare you. I u! More

I just hope Brett Ratner keeps his filthy paws off of it. Rule one of any producers "How to make a film" hand book should read 'Don't get Brett Ratner to make your film'" I'd like to see a Wolerine movie, but God help us if it's anything like the dismil X-Men 3 then forget it. It was one of the worst films I've ever seen. I've never seen a film so full of holes, so lacking in characterisation, which you might forgive or over look if it wasn't for the fact that Bryan Singer did suc More

considering it cost $200 million, its just about broken even.
I'd prefer to see Magneto first.

| Why the pessimism? |
Did people really think X3 was so bad? I've been an X fan since I was a kid and though it didn't match up to X2 I thought it was thoroughly enjoyable! A Wolverine movie is a natural progression, after all that's how the comics evolved. As someone else here said if it is aimed at a more mature audience with at least a 15 certificate it could be superb. A Wolverine movie doesn't need a massive special effects budget and I wouldn't think Hugh Jackman commands mega buck salaries so what's the proble More

Cool! If X3 was flawed due to too many characters and so little time, then thank goodness this is solo. Although I'm more interested in the Magneto spin-off, Wolverine is such a great character and Jackman is a superb actor. Hope this is lower budgeted and a 15. More

they may as well have called X3 Wolverine the Movie the amount of screen time he had over everyone else. I just hope its more a Batman Begins type of hero flick as opposed to an Electra film !! More

Rubbish a nice Wolverine Omega Red story line would be good. I dare not mention the idea of deadpool. We need some spin offs so we can bring in a Doctor Strange kind of recruitment drive so we bring in heros from all over. Nice bit of Thing, Hulk, Thor, Spiderman and Wolverine. Or is that a bit too much testonsterone? More

| It's all on the director and writers.... |
Remember, Wolvie had to share the screentime with tons of other x-folk until now. Not having to make that concession will benefit things greatly. Plus, bring on a good director/writer(s) with passion for the character (a la Mr. B.Singer esq.) and it's a winner. Jackman can do wolverine, no probs. More

Not sure what I think about this. First of all i agree with coments so far, this venture is a lil too late now the X-Men hype has calmed down and pretty much layed to rest. If anything, think Wolverine will now only work in another X-Men film, not solo. Plus a big danger of denting a very strong comic franchise. He is so tightly entagled into the X-men universe that any characters he meets that don't fit the X-men bill is going to kill it off instantly. They should make another X-Men, bring o More

Would have been exciting 5 years ago before the dissapointments of Van Helsing and X3. Now Jackman is a bit of a Vin Diesel - lord of 'oh what could have been good'.
A darker Wolverine movie aimed for the more mature fan could save the day though.
