Film and Theatre Lover!
I get quite a few random things sent to my email for the blog, but every now and then I really do feel the need to share it! This one is pretty amusing as they have come up with New Year Resolutions for Superheroes, let’s face it we all love Superheroes!
Anyone come up with any more?
When fandom’s collide!
Just came across this absolutely brilliant video with Hugh Jackman using a Les Mis song with some very different lyrics, with a nice little plug for the up and coming X-Men: Days of Future Past!
Stumbled across Mettel Ray Movie Blog and spotted a fantastic blogathon and thought I would get involved. Fantastic idea of coming up with your movie alphabet making it consist of movies, directors, actors and actresses who’s lives revolve around movies.
The way I decided to approach picking my alphabet was to put down the first 5 movie related things that came to mind for the certain letter! Well most of the time 5 . . . That was actually harder than I thought!
How it all began for Charles and Erik aka Professor X and Magneto. I cannot make my mind up if I think this looks good or not, the trailer doesn’t really give much away. It has to be good for the X-Men series as Wolverine Origins was very disappointing.

Now we are into the top 20 !!!
So here are the next 5 in my list . . .
I think there will be so many spin-off’s occuring for all the different characters. Which is great 🙂
Ryan Reynolds’ will reprise his role as X-men mutant Deadpool after landing his own spin-off in the comic book film franchise.
Reynolds starred alongside Hugh Jackman in the fourth movie, X-Men Origins: Wolverine; and studio bosses at Twentieth Century Fox have already begun development on a film to flesh out his character’s story, reports Variety.
The actor will take over the big screen as Deadpool and alter-ego Wade Wilson, a cancer-stricken mercenary who becomes an indestructible mutant thanks to a genetic experiment.
Just last week Wolverine director Gavin Hood sparked reports Reynolds is set to star in his own X-Men movie, revealing he hopes to chronicle Deadpool’s superhero background.
He told reporters, “Ryan Reynolds is extremely charismatic… and he can combine action and humour.
“The creators of these characters have all created characters that could all have their own origin stories. Hopefully fans will enjoy Wolverine and more will be made.”
I hope that Storm and other X-Men characters get there own Origins movie, like Wolverine would be sooooo cool.
Halle Berry hopes to follow in the footsteps of Hugh Jackman by reviving her X-men character for a prequel.
Jackman’s new movie X-Men Origins: Wolverine is set before the comic book trilogy and tells the life story of his superhero alter ego.
And Berry, who played weather-controlling mutant Storm in the first three films, would love to return to the franchise with her own X-Men Origins picture.
She says, “I think that would be great. Storm deserves her own movie – if I can still fit into the suit.”
I bet he is glad he did not quit !!!
Australian actor Hugh Jackman contemplated walking away from the X-men franchise after the third movie – because he feared his character Wolverine had gone too “soft”.
Jackman reprises his role as the superhero in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the fourth movie of the cult series.
But the film almost didn’t happen, because after Jackman had completed 2006’s X-Men: The Last Stand he considered stepping down from the role amid concerns over his character’s development.
He says, “One thing I never felt we got with Wolverine that I really wanted to get is that berserker rage which is talked about in the comic books.
“It felt like Wolverine had got a little soft by X-Men 3 and I wanted to take it back to that bad a** quality. He’s tough, he’s gruff, he’s not politically correct – he doesn’t say the right things.
“There has to be complexity to this character. He’s very tough but there’s a lot of pain, history to his life that you find out about. It’s not pretty. He’s a flawed character. That’s what I like about it, that’s why I’m doing it for the fourth time or else I wouldn’t.”
I am liking the random Hugh Jackman stories that have been appearing over the past few days. This must have been very strange and freaky for him !!!
Hugh Jackman was once surprised by a superfan waiter in a restaurant – who stripped off to reveal a tattoo of his X-men character Wolverine.
The Australian actor was enjoying a meal at an upmarket eaterie in New York when a server approached his table.
But instead of taking the star’s order, he shocked the star by whipping off his shirt to reveal a tattoo on his back depicting the superhero.
Jackman says, “He took his shirt off in the middle of the restaurant and I saw the guy’s back was covered with a tattoo of my character, Wolverine.
“I run into Wolverine groupies all over the place from convention-goers to custom officials.”
