My Geekdom Won't Allow Me To See the Wolverine Movie

On May 1st X-Men Origins: Wolverine opened in theaters everywhere. When I had first heard this movie was coming out, I was extremely excited. A wolverine movie should be awesome, right? Not when some hollywood jerkoffs who have no idea what they're doing get a hand oo it. Sure the special effects look really good. The film will be an action packed sensation. I just can't justify spending ten dollars on seeing this joke on the big screen. My problem is that I have been reading X-men and Wolverine comics since I was knee high. There are a few discrepancies that I have a problem with. And Gambit being in the movie is not enough for me. They only threw him in there because people have been crying about it since X-Men 1 came out.

I have decided to boycott this film for several reasons:

* I still don't like Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. Wolverine isn't six foot two and a pretty boy. Wolverine should be a short, hairy, bruiser type. Hugh Jackman's interpretation of the character just screams pussy.
* Cyclops and Wolverine first met (according to the movie timeline) back in Canada during the first movie. Why is he in Origins? NO continuity is a big pet peeve of mine.
* Wolverine has a wrestling match with the Blob. Another fuck up with continuity. In the first X-men movie, Blob is one of the students at the school.
* Why is Emma Frost in the movie? Emma Frost aka "the White Queen" was never part of the weapon x program nor did she have any dealings with Wolverine at that time. Also Emma's mutant power is telepathy. She gained her diamond shell mutation later in the comic books. In
the movie, they have it all wrong. I think they put her in as filler.
* Ryan Reynold's Deadpool. Completely unnecessary. I understand why they put him in the film, but he doesn't even have the costume. Another pretty boy fuck up.

So my point is that the production team for the Wolverine have decided to go for shine instead of content. This is usually what's wrong with comic book movies. Everyone wants to rush and cram a bunch of cool characters and flashy special effects into a movie. They never learn that you could be accurate and flashy. So I am waiting the three months when Wolverine will be out on cable.
