Two Quick Set Snapshots From The WOLVERINE Reshoot!!
Merrick here...
There's been a lot of talk about the WOLVERINE reshoots going on in Vancouver (including THIS e-mail to AICN from Hugh Jackman).
A reader called Ashoholic found one of the sets from said reshoot, and grabbed a few shots of it for us. Here's the message that came with the images:
Heard about the Wolverine re-shoot in Vancouver, some of which is taking place at the University of BC (UBC).
Snapped a few with the Iphone and thought I'd share them with you. Pretty ugly set...hope they clean it up in post-production.

Here are the pics:
Looks a little like that place Bond fucked up in the beginning of DIE ANOTHER DAY, or am I not remembering that film correctly?

you call it a reshoot while linking to an email from the star of the movie that says it isn't a reshoot. Sweet.
-
And less like the stuff they put near the line for a rollercoaster...
-
This movie's gonna rule!
-
Because 5 signs within 10 feet of each other just doesn't get the point across.
-
an awesome paint ball course
-
This will OBVIOUSLY SUCK. The only way Wolverine would be cool is if a pre-Benjamin Butt David Fincher directed it and had two hours of blood spurting from necks all the time! That's what the REAL comic is about! DEATH!!! DEAAAATHH!!!! --Fanboy69 1981-2009
-
Never forget. Make Rothman and company pay like the dogs they are.
-
I've wiped it from my memory.
-
left overs from the set of the cancelled "Jericho"?
-
Good luck rallying the troops, there, Patton.
-
I know it's just a phone-camera shot, but it still has that Six Flags look to me.
-
please write and tell us what kind of romantic evenings you like the most.
-
That was a long time ago. And Hugh Jackman is a nice guy. But this movie? Too generic.
-
Actually, it looks like a set quickly put together in order to quickly re-shoot scenes in an attempt to save a shitty movie that will bomb out the asshole if it was released today. Will this be the final nail in the coffin of both the X-Men franchise and Hugh Jackman's career? Who gives a fuck when Avatar will be fucking our eyeballs in 2009 in 3-fucking-D!!!
-
and put more stop signs in the film. I was going to boycott this film but no longer. I'll be really impressed if the stop sign is Mystique in disguise.
-
... was from the fox.com domain, so it's an email from the Fox PR department. The closest it got to Jachman was when one of his PR people signed off on it.
-
That's actually cute.
-
That looks like every other corner. Could've saved millions in props.
-
You know the rest!!!!!
-
I like scrubs, that is all!
-
You must credit me, or be blacklisted from the internet.
-
Fox stole some cheddar and is using it to amp up Wolverines flava!
-
come second. The coloration is astounding. Seriously, this was set up to keep the background from using the actors terlets and crafty.

With production values like this, WOLVERINE will be huge

of an old The A-Team episode for some reason.
-
I think I'm going to the nearest intersection, taking a snapshot of the signs, and sending it in as footage from the GI Joe set. Watch out Snake Eyes, deer are crossing!
-
"I said HALT, MUTHAFUCKA!"
-
Cause, that's what it looks like.
-
Seriously, AICN, get your facts straight. From everything I've heard, these are PICKUPS. Very different thing.
-
lame
-
this is my school...this is the place where i beat up, i mean where i got beat up by those kids.
-
so dont hate on stargate
-
With those claws, OUCH!
-
...where the big blowjob scene takes place? --G
-
AWESOME! Watch as Wolverine leaps from his Lincoln Logs house!
-
...and with a lot of fog, and from a distance, and out of focus.
-
... painted on that wall?
-
If a million bucks looked like a lego set made of turds
-
with his cock
-
I got nothin'.
-
Yeah, why the hell did they have to go and cast a good actor, when there are so many talented ex-wrestlers available who could have stood there squinting instead? SINO!!!
-
Getting a thespian doesn't help when the character calls for huge, muscular and animalistic killer. I suppose you'd hire Kevin Spacey to play Conan the Barbarian as well?They should've gone with Triple H again. The guy looks the part, played the character already in the X-Men film and would at least make the character credible when he's supposedly trying to kill Wolverine in this new film. Hiring flabby and crew-cut Liev Schrieber to go toe-to-toe with a bulked-up and larger Hugh Jackman is simply a bad joke. >:(

I think it would look better if they tone down the bright colour
by rowanm
-
...and dress up wrestlers in the ring as X-Men, and let them fight? Logan is supposed to be a hairy, ugly little runt, too... but I'd take Jackman over, say, Danzig, because he made the character work without being a ridiculous Liefeldian caricature. I think Schrieber could be a great counter to Jackman's Wolverine. And, honestly, Schwarzenegger as Conan wasn't true to the character, either. But at least he wasn't some chode named Triple fucking H.
-
or was that a typo?
-
...I got nothin'.
-
...if you call this article news. I know, I know. I'm posting about it. Just hoping Merrick stops wasting time with this kind of crap. Tell/show us something interesting. This item he posted is a joke.
-
he's supposed to be like 5ft nothing
-
Yawn.
Anyway, you guys think that Harry and Hugh Jackman are Twitter and Facebook friends, texting each other back and forth like twelve year old girls? "Shoot is bldy kilur here omg!! sooo boooring cheers love Hugh" -
Excelsior!

whose backyard paintball field is this?

The yellow one that appears to be warning us of shadow puppets.

All the Weapon X peeps break out into a huge choreographed dance sequence Bollywood style. Actually "scratch" that (heh? get it?), Bollywood would do a better job with the license than goddamn "fucks up everything, pisses in our mouths and tells us its Kool-Aid" FOX. Fuck this noise.

Those photos have nailed it!

FUCK YOUUUUUUUUU

HULK SMASH AND TURN INTO PINK PASTE!

this will be in Black and White i bet.

..for making me spit my drink all over my keyboard. All I can hear now is Al Gores effeminate voice screaming excelsior as he flies around in his super man cape. Im super cereal thanks.
-
Both this and the Watchmen looked like fantastic projects. Now we have nothing, will we ever learn from "Won't get fooled again.."
-
I can barely contain my precum.
-
nothing else matters
-
of those top down console games where you can break the outer layer of the walls with the character's powers, but not the wall.
-
...hiding in the background. Hey Rothman - how about reshooting this as 'Wolverine Goes To Narnia'? You know, combine TWO franchises? That'll pack 'em in like sardines, right?
-
that was just an excuse to put little flags in the title.....THIS LOOKS SO SHITTY
-
It was Tyler Mane, the guy who now plays Michael Meyers. He actually slimmed down for that role so he wouldn't look quite the same. I think Tyler Mane is cool and would've liked to see him attempt a meatier part, but Schrieber looks good in the pictures. Didn't know he was so tall. I think there is room in this world for both ex-wrestlers AND actors. It would be a shitty world if we could only choose one or the other.
Also, ebonic plague, what is your stance on kickboxers? The great Scott UNDISPUTED II Adkins is apparently in this one both as a villain and as Ryan Reynolds's stunt double. -
Nice reshoots. The test audience really wanted more of these.
-
this movie will suck.
-
That's the entrance to the movie theater showing Wolverine.
-
Jesus Christ you even link to hugh jackmans email sent to your site,explaining the situation.
That they are normal shoots,which couldnt have been during the principal photography because of the cast's obligations to other works.
of course that doesnt mean that what mr Jackman says its true..right? right? right... -
it consistently astounds me how you continue to work for AICN. Your chat is painful.
-
Please say it aint so...
-
You build...CONSTRUCTS...
-
Fortress of the Crazies!!!
-
Spidey 3 was shooting in town here. Like the geek I am, I hung out on the set and took photos. I sent in a dozen shots of stunt-spidey fighting sandman on the bank truck. They didn't get used here. But AiCN will post this exciting shot of a WATCHTOWER and a GATE.
-
Teach the infidels the meaning of Pencil Jihad. Class is in session.
-
How totally underwhelming (much like the film itself). I still can't get interested in this movie.
-
Camp Krusty ...AFTER Bart took over. Good Times!!!
-
A paintball field?--Oh (LOL!) I see everyone else made the same observation I did, and subsequently came to the same conclusion. Well, a consensus has been reached. Meeting adjourned.
-
I SUPPOSE this is what post-Apocalyptic Canada could look like.
-
Tom Rothman ordered that all FOX sets be used for several shows. I think "24" is also filming there too.
-
I didn't steal your joke. You think I read other people's posts? I just scan for my own name.
-
Blood. Violence. Deadpool. Everything we wanted. Hulk Vs. Thor...not so much. I wanted Brian Blessed to be Volstagg, but, no dice.
-
The seal at the front gate looks a lot like the flag of Mozambique.

I've sharpened my Laddies.
I'm as stoked to see Wolvie as anyone, but when you see shots like this, you gotta wonder WTF. Why not just wait and combine this short, insubstantive piece with whatever the next Wolvie article happens to be about? In short I guess what I'm saying is, these photos alone don't strike me as big news, nor do they reveal much. Even 2for2true says so -
hate to do this but there is some cool stuff over at rottentomatoes, awesome wannabe concept art for world war z, casting news on neil marshalls new one centurion, thing prequel news (ugh), and ghost rider 2 got the greenlight with nick cage!!! (vomit)
and dancingforver, cry harder about watchmen, pussy. the attention to detail on it is looking insane -
over on RT there is also a new (I think) image of the vietnamese bowing down to Dr. Manhatten, it looks all 70's (the photo quality) pretty cool
-
I'd buy that for a dollar
-
K......I.....D.......S!!
-
It didn't even begin with a "Good day Mates!" What...do they think we're stupid?
-

It's awesome!! -
I am looking forward to this blunder!!! The end of Hugh Jackman's career is near complete!!! First Australia, now this!!! No one ever made career suicide so bad, its good!!!
-
MY GOD man! You even provide the link that proves it! There's even an interview with the producer from like 8 months ago talking about the additional shooting in reference to trying to get a Stan Lee cameo! WAKE UP!
-
I walked passed this set at least 4 times yesterday, and I didn't realize it was a film set. Maybe if I'd noticed the razor wire and gun towers...
A fight (with explosions!) between Wolverine and Magneto was filmed at UBC last weekend. And when I left school late last night, the film crew was shooting, and the set in the pics was filled with lots of smoke (or heavy fog).
-
Magneto's in this?!? Is it McKellen with the age reverse? (one of the very few good things about The Last Stand)
-
That looks very comic book and almost Cold War-like in the design. Very good.
The one thing that would make this movie great is fixing the major faux pas of omitting Maverick. But I digress... -
to get Famke Jansen in this. Nude.
-
They are going to reshoot the wealth of this film!!!
-
Sorry. She is. I concur with Abominable Snowcone.
-
Re: Magneto
I have no idea if he's in it or not. I didn't witness the scene being shot, but it made the front page of this week's UBC newspaper. The picture shows a large explosion, and the caption below the picture says the fight scene that was filmed was between Wolverine and Magneto - which could be shoddy student journalism and thus, inaccurate. :D
(The mentioning of Magneto struck me as odd, too...) -
...Ron Jeremy was on campus last night around the same time the film crew was shooting Wolverine. Coincidence? :D
-
Here's a pic of the explosion. It's more interesting than the pics posted above, imo: http://flickr.com/photos/tyfn/3224963304/in/set-7215761291807359 9/

Got a 4 real good ones including a mushroom cloud explosion on set. Amazing stuff. -
That's right I said it.
-
I wonder how long before Fox makes someone take the pics down.
-
Reminds me of forts I made out of trash back when I was a little kid. Is this Wolverine's tree house?
-
"You dickfucker" I don't mind a wrestler, just get someone who isn't dead wood in the part. No offense to Triple Mane, maybe being fully masked offers him unique ways to emote, but in that first X-Men movie, both he and Darth Toad were completely underwhelming and forgettable henchmen compared to Jackman, who nailed Wolverine. But then again, you are also apparently concerned that Sabretooth isn't blonde, which gives me the impression that you're one of the people that whined about the Joker wearing make-up, in which case I don't have time to get into this kind of argument. I just think Liev Schrieber is a better casting pick for a Sabretooth-esque bad guy foil for Jackman's Wolverine, and even though I probably don't even care enough to buy a ticket to see this movie, I think that would be a good onscreen match up, even though he has played other parts that aren't sociopathic feral men. Also, wasn't Ryan Reynolds one of the usual talkback picks to play Deadpool? Maybe because he basically already played Deadpool in that Blade sequel? And that's not good enough because he won't be wearing Spider Man's mask over Freddy Krueger's face and wink at the camera? Yeah, okay, have fun with that, then, these talkbacks should be interesting. And Vern, I think that if Scott Adkins can act like an actor when the script calls for it, and like a kick-boxer when there is kick-boxing to be done, I'd fully endorse his casting as a villain/stunt double for a minor supporting character in a comic book adaptation sequel spin-off. But he better wear a mask!

Casino Royale was the movie in which Daniel Craig fucks up a third world country's third-rate embassy, though you may be thinking of the North Korean detention camp Pierce Brosnan is exchanged out of in Die Another Day.
-
read like your usual PR pablum.
-
"Okay guys I like the idea of four foot high caltrops, but Im concerned that someone might actually get hurt on them."
"We could paint the tips bright orange."
"great. Lets make that happen." -
X-men died after the second movie
-
Avoid anything that will line the whore's pockets. Including this guaranteed shit fest.
