Domestic (US) Trailer for 'The Wolverine'


Headsup via First Showing. One slight (but) noticeable difference between this Domestic (USA) trailer and the previously posted International trailer - is the amount of imagery showcasing the ladies. From more Yukio, to a sexy Mariko, but a stiff "marm" Viper. I'm not complaining tho! THAT and the noticeably gloomier-aspect of the tone … Logan's in deep doo-doo and this trailer shows it LOL … Here be some screengrabs:

The Japanese ladies here look "super exotic", don't they?

Oh look! "Oriental" faces! At least they're not using "Koreans" disguised as "Japanese" - LOL

I certainly hope ninjas from "The Hand" are more skilled than those guys in Cobra's employ tho … *cough*

…Yes, this reminded me of Tom Cruise's scene in "The Last Samurai" too … heh.

The Silver Samurai for 'The Wolverine' Revealed (Sorta...) + Vine Teaser Video

SILVER-SAMURAI-XMENONFILM

The Silver Samurai (or rather a fleeting glimpse of his back) is revealed in this Vine-video from @mang0ld, promoting 'The Wolverine' - with a trailer set to debut March 27th on MTV and Apple trailers.


SILVER_SAMURAI_COMICBOOKS
WHO-IS: "Keniuchio Harada is the mutant son of the former Japanese crimelord Shingen Harada. As a youth, Harada mastered the attendant disciplines of the medieval samurai and sought employment as a warrior for hire. He first worked for the criminal Mandrill and clashed with the blind hero Daredevil. Harada then served the Viper, an agent of the terrorist organization Hydra, as her bodyguard. In that capacity, Harada battled opponents such as the costumed crimefighter Spider-Man, the martial arts master Shang-Chi, and the team of mutant trainee heroes the New Mutants."

CASTING: Daniel Cudmore for X-Men: Days of Future Past

colossus-xmen

Scrolling thru the IMDb-listings for 'X-Men: Days of Future Past' - I spotted the name "Daniel Cudmore" for "Piotr Rasputin / Colossus"! But of course I missed the news traveling around the www before that LOL

Frankly I would have loved to see more of him in X-Men: The Last Stand, but am esthetic to hopefully see more of him in "Future Past" … I fondly remember seeing him assume his metallic form in X2, and enacting the "Fastball Special" with Wolverine lobbed at a Sentinel, in that "Danger Room" exercise (ironically for a "Days of Future Past" simulation!). Here's hoping they don't make him wear the Y-Front spanks for this celluloid outing tho LOL

CASTING: Booboo for X-Men: Days of Future Past

BOOBOO-STEWART
“It's just a dream come true, really; I can't even explain the feeling that I have for this, it's incredible. I don't know anything [that I can share] about my character. I can't say anything, but I wish I could shout it. Yes, you will see [the result of my work-out] in the movie. I look forward to working with Bryan Singer; I got to hang out with him for a few days...seriously a cool guy. [Singer calling the movie an inbetweenquel] is a really neat way to connect the [original X-Men trilogy and First Class]. It'll be really interesting to see how it all comes together.”
Mentioned actor Booboo Stewart of his role in X-Men: Days of Future Past (via ComicBookMovie / via io9.com). You might remember him as werewolf "Seth Clearwater" in "Twilight". Only character that popped into mind for this dude is "John Proudstar" aka "Thunderbird" or "Warpath" from X-Force (do pardon my racial-profiling tho). But seriously tho, drop the headband, and stick to the darker-version, please - someone to give Wolverine a run for "darkness" … although it would be quite funny if he was NOT a part of the X-Men tho LOL … Who do YOU think he should play?

Tweeting Film Directors

"Life" is so different now … regardless of the past, both the advent of Twitter and Facebook has set a new course of direction in which a movie is presented to the masses / marketed online, as well how it affects the "real world".

Locally, I have witnessed local television news reports quoting Facebook status updates or tweets as legitimate news sources (and "journalism" has since become a "disposable commodity"). Hype wise, movie directors have been tweeting from their production meetings and film sets, which would have been literally unheard of days past. Now, how the heck did that happen again? LOL

Regardless, hype-sites like mine and most every other lap them up for information, so I'm not grousing about anything here! ;p

WOLVERINE-PANORAMA
Above: "A panorama of camera "A" at Yashida Compound.
Matt Toll (1st AC) and Marc Spicer ("A" Operator extraordinaire)."

Below: "A long dolly shot at the Yashida compound
on the @WolverineMovie."

WOLVERINE-DOLLY

Two specific Twitter-accounts you should be looking at (specifically for this blog) are from THE WOLVERINE director James Mangold at @mang0ld (posted here are his snaps), and X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST director Bryan Singer @BryanSinger. They have been providing as much hype as company-run media outlets, since whatever is tweeted gets diluted to FB-postings and such, without a credit given.

Another Day Another Battle on X-Men: Days of Future Past

XMEN-BATTLE

Director Bryan Singer tweeted the group planning shot above, for which I tried to see closer what they were for, but alas, I lost interest pretty quick LOL … but looks to be some sort of indoor-battle, hopefully we'll get to see handheld-all-the-day from one end to the other tho! Just let Wolverine do it, so there's less need to do (too much) CGI hahahaha *SNIKT*

That Corridor Which Leads to Cerebro

XMEN_SDCC

Director Bryan Singer tweeted on Feb 21st the above image with the following text: "How many days until @Comic_Con? #XMen #DaysofFuturePast #SDCC" … and while it may be interesting to see a portion of this corridor at the annual event (of course by which I'll only be seeing it online), it would be interesting to see this doorway to Cerebro again for X-Men: Days of Future Past, for which the studio construction snap (also tweeted by Singer) most likely be for, innit? I love construction peeks!
