Gina Torres would be a perfect Storm. Hands down. no one better. Nuff Said and all that.

just wondering how lonh it is going to be, before Jackwagon, i mean Jackman is going to get sick of playing Wolverine.

 I don't know what anyone is worrying about. 2 or 3 of the Maniacs on this board have initiated the nefarious "Project: Boycott", so with their money gone from the total worldwide box-office take... I think it's safe to say that the rights will be back with Marvel in a flash...

Anyhoo, on a more serious note... totally stoked. I loved the original "Days of Future Past" storyline when I read it as a kid. Like you guys, I really hope we get giant Sentinels this time. And lots of them!

So many plot holes.  So much inconsistency in continuity.  It is all so messed up and this feels like a very very weak attempt to fix all these issues with the past movies.

@invisioner - Damn, that is the best idea for Storm i have ever read anywhere! 1000 Intrawebs.

Now if the right would only go back to Marvel. :-( Yes, I am a broken record.

Sigh...Oh well...I guess Fox X-men is better than no X-men. I agree Wise, I hope the fucked up continuity is all restructured and fit more closely to the comics as well. So does this mean the "future" is the present day, essentially the future of First Class? Will this fix Scott's much much older brother's age or continuity?

LOL!  I'm still a bit worried.

Kudos to Jackman. A lot of stars don't like being typecast and quit (see Kilmer, Keaton, Affleck, etc...) but this guy loves playing the role and is very passionate about it (unlike say, Edward Norton). This will be his 6th go at Wolverine (7 if you count the cameo in FC). Isn't that a record for an actor portraying a superhero?

As for the rights. As much as we wish, boycott, etc...We have to live with the facts that this won't happen.Fox will milk this cow dry. The only thing we could wish for is a joint partnership between the studios. I'm telling you right now, if WB's JL movie kills Marvel, I could see a Fox/Disney and Sony/Disney  partnership to include Wolverine and Spidey in Phase 3 of Marvel movies.

Way back before the first X-men movie I always thought David Bowie's wife the model Iman was the perfect Storm. She looks just the way she's usually drawn -graceful & goddess-like- and she's even from the same part of Africa.

 They could reboot this easily if they pull this off then the new series of X-Men could be the New X-Men with a new cast and closer adaptation.

 BISHOP, CABEL, FORGE, GAMBIT!!!!!!! SENTINEL ASS KICKING! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GIVE IT TO ME!!!!!!

It's still weird when you consider the whole point of Wolverine is that he is ALWAYS an outsider, a short weird looking hairy dude in a world of tall god like super-heroes...

And now the 'one and only' choice to play him is a 6'4" 'hollywood type' guy that could have played any number of OTHER comic book characters...

That said, he is pretty much set in stone now and anyone who takes over the role will probably look JUST like him.

And let's face it, he is actually pretty good in the role and that one line in First Class pretty much stole the show.
