Synopsis:

Wolverine the movie; the closest as possible comic continuity edit.

Intentions:

Being a fan of the X-Men and a loyal reader of the Wolverine solo comic book since my teenage years I was not satisfied with what Fox did with the character in his origin movie, while it does follow the sequence of events that took place over the years in the obscure comic continuity of his origin, too many things were changed for my taste…

Change List:

Conceptually the changes will be as follows: - Completely remove all mentions, references and conversations indicating that Wolverine and Sabretooth are brothers; this is simply not true in the comic canon, in which at some point it was speculated that Victor Creed was Wolvie’s father… which in the end it was proved not to be the case. And whether James Howlett was indeed the son of his family mansion’s groundskeeper is left loose in the air, as in the Origin miniseries. - While it will not be possible to make the black ops team the same as in the comic cannon (originally consisting of Logan, Creed, John Wraith, Silver Fox and Maverick), some improvements have been made to the scenes. Most of the action has been left for continuity reasons, except for a certain character climbing buildings for no reason, and WadeÂ?s most over the top action. - Completely remove all plot regarding Logan volunteering for the Weapon X program, in the canon it was an abduction/forced drafting by the Canadian government to create their version of the Super Soldier a.k.a. Captain America. - Incorporate/replace the deleted/alternate scenes to the movie, I have two of them from the blu ray and all are quite good for the movie IMO. - Fight scene with Gambit tightened, removing the most over the top elements. - No Silver Fox drugged to fake death, which is better left unexplained; she has no mutant powers and also she is not Emma Frost’s sister. - The bastardized version of “Deadpool” AKA Barakapool on the final act is still present, but he is now only referred to as “the mutant killer” and “Weapon XI” and is isolated from Wade Wilson, who did appear during the Team X mission. - Most (almost all) of the lame attempts at humor are cut out. - Various small fixes regarding nonsense lines and redundancies. - Make sure to watch all thru the end credits, Japan epilogue included following the current Marvel movie trend.
