    "You have to wonder if he dreams of terrible accidents befalling both Hugh Jackman and Daniel Craig, sometimes"


    in the case of the former it is no longer a dream as a terrible accident has already befalled hugh jackman, it's currently playing in theaters.

    I've been dreaming of an X-Men Musical for ages! Wolverine and his deadly jazz hands! Deadpool doing a little soft shoe. *swoon*

    Bob Hoskins would have been an amazing Wolverine. God, now I won't be able to watch Origins: Wolverine without thinking of either Mr. Smee or Eddie Valiant...

    @Omaxem: Go watch "The Long Good Friday" and imagine (back in the day) that he couldn't play Wolverine. My world's been kind of rocked by that casting choice and I think it's kinda awesome.


    But nowadays not so much, I'll give you that.

    If they were doing it again from scratch and Ratner was in charge of the first X-Men, I'd expect Zac Effron to be on the silver screen saying in a tremulous voice, "Hey... Bub?"

    Ah, "Pryde of the X-Men." You gave us the 6 player X-Men arcade game so you weren't a complete failure.

    Damn, not only did I not see the fireball, but now my favourite blogger from my favourite blog in my home town of Saskatoon and here I am fussing about hosting a calendric debauch. Maybe it's better for you that I didn't talk your ear off about Saskatoon sci-non-fi like nanotech research at the Synchrotron and the shield of crap futurism which is protecting our local economy. I would not have been able to stop.
