He's finally wearin' yellow!

[-] AbyssalChord@feddit.de 7 points 11 months ago

Probably an unpopular opinion but the color‘s too bright for me. Some kind of off-white yellow would be much better imo. Either way, I bet they‘re going to put some post effects over it anyway.

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 54 points 11 months ago

It's in a Deadpool movie. They get to be ridiculous. I'm a bit surprised that there are sleeves.

[-] Duranie@lemmy.film 9 points 11 months ago

Sleeves... for now...

[-] TheAndrewBrown@lemmy.world 27 points 11 months ago

Well it’s meant to look like the original comics, which had a pretty bright yellow. There’s a reason the X-Men haven’t used that costume in a while lol

[-] transmatrix@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

This isn’t a “through lens” shot. It will likely look much darker on screen if they follow current trends.

[-] AbyssalChord@feddit.de 2 points 11 months ago

You‘re probably right, I hadn‘t thought about that. Through lens will be much darker.

I'm really digging the realistic take on the yellow suit. I think it works well.

Also, I hope there's going to be a scene where he rips the sleeves off. Long sleeved Logan feels wrong 😂

[-] TheManIsInsane@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

I was thinking the same exact thing. This looks to be based on John Cassaday's redesign from 2004 and that one leaves his forearms bare.

[-] Ketchup@reddthat.com 29 points 11 months ago

I thought Hugh said he was done. Must have imagined it

[-] winebaths@lemmy.world 57 points 11 months ago

I think the dump truck full of cash convinced him otherwise

[-] Poggervania@kbin.social 31 points 11 months ago

That and maybe not needing to work out and/or dehydrate himself to be buff as hell for shots, if the body-covering yellow suit is anything to go off of.

[-] WaltJRimmer@lemmy.world 32 points 11 months ago

If he doesn't have a topless/nude scene with Reynolds touching his chest for comedic effect, I'll be kind of disappointed. But really, I think he's doing this for a mixture of the tremendous Disney money and because he's friends with Reynolds.

[-] Radicalized@lemmy.one 5 points 11 months ago

He didn’t have to do that in the first place - he just wanted to. Hugh was really small in the first xmen movie and got bigger as they went along.

[-] flashmedallion@lemmy.nz 8 points 11 months ago

That's because standards changed

[-] Zorque@kbin.social 5 points 11 months ago

You must not have seen many 80s action movies.

I guess they had talked about doing this movie awhile back but it wasn't really possible at the time with everything going on with the rights to movies/characters. They never really thought this would have been possible, but once Marvel took control over everything, it became a possibility and Ryan went to Hugh with the idea. He was a little reticent on doing it because he thought Logan was the perfect ending for character, but they said that it wouldn't alter the timeline of what happened in the movie so he agreed to do it.

I guess Reynolds and Jackman are buddies too which probably made the convincing a lot easier.

That and the dump truck full of cash that @winebaths referenced probably didn't hurt.

Yeah he was, but he agreed to reprise just for Ryan. And, well, y’know, money.

[-] ultimate_question@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

My theory is that he's not actually playing Wolverine and him being in this movie is a big gag, like he's actually playing Deadpool's dad or some other character. I don't think any of the official announcements actually said anything other than Hughes Jackman is in it

[-] vinceman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Hugh Jackman has been kidnapped by Deadpool

As a child who grew up watching 80's and 90's cartoons, specifically the X-Men TV Series. This looks fucking amazing, and I'm here for it.

[-] Starburn@kbin.social 20 points 11 months ago

Da na na naa na na, Da na na naa na na

[-] weksa@lemm.ee 7 points 11 months ago

Alright, I'll come clean, I sang that out loud.

[-] cmbabul@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I sang the following notes and rest of the song out loud

[-] SmurfDotSee@sh.itjust.works 6 points 11 months ago

Saturday morning Gambit in a movie(done right) would be sick AF.

[-] ImpossibleRubiksCube@programming.dev 3 points 11 months ago

Fox almost did that back when they were getting senile. They had goddamn Channing Tatum for the role.

[-] AnusBesamus@feddit.de 23 points 11 months ago

I can't imagine any other Wolverine than Hugh. It's crazy for how long and how many different universes he has contributed.

[-] FlashZordon@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago

Oh my god Wolverine's suit exceeds my lofty expectations.

[-] Lordgeoffery@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago

Hugh Jackman will always and forever be Wolverine. Perfection

[-] DmMacniel@feddit.de 10 points 11 months ago

What would Hollywood be without sequels...

[-] sik0fewl@kbin.social 16 points 11 months ago
[-] DmMacniel@feddit.de 7 points 11 months ago

Frick... You got me there :D

[-] Flaky_Fish69@kbin.social 6 points 11 months ago

and remakes.

[-] Zorque@kbin.social 6 points 11 months ago

Probably about the same, just with less money.

[-] Pons_Aelius@kbin.social 2 points 11 months ago

Well before sequels it was 100 westerns, two released every week. Lots of variety and innovation there.

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 10 points 11 months ago

Was that so hard? It looks great.

[-] thefuckinnerds@lemmynsfw.com 9 points 11 months ago

Looking like ketchup and mustard

[-] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Great costume design

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.one 7 points 11 months ago

Even got the claw covers on the gloves!

[-] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 3 points 11 months ago

But why's he got sleeves?

[-] PipedLinkBot@feddit.rocks 12 points 11 months ago

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/gMr2p39-gvE

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.

[-] rockyrikoko@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

That link took me to a loud hot mess express with ads automatically blaring in Korean (I think)

Edit: Hm, I'm getting downvoted. Either my experience was way different than everyone else's or OP is suppressing my comment. Can anyone confirm or deny the experience I had when visiting this site?

[-] samsy@feddit.de 4 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Looks good, but I use adblock. Must be a bot which creates invidious links from YouTube to piped(?).

Maybe there are better invidious instances in the wild but the bot creator choosed this one.

[-] andrewski@waveform.social 6 points 11 months ago

Are we sure that’s Ryan Reynolds and not the T-Mobile CEO? 🤨

[-] pyromaster55@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

I love it. Apparently Jennifer Garner is coming back as Elektra as well.

Pretty excited about this.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 4 points 11 months ago

Fuck yeah, they got Wolverine in the classic yellow shit. :D
