Isn’t a little weird he looked younger in year 2000 and fucking old in the '70s? They could have chosen someone who looked more like 2000’s Wolverine, at least…
its called suspension of disbelief. it didnt bother me one bit.
This makes no sense.
As Maxx said: Wolverines looked the same for like 80 years.
So, Marvel got Sony to let Spider-man join the Avengers in future movies. Would be cool if they get FOX to let the use the X-Men and FF for Infinity War.
For anybody wondering when Fox could lose the X-Men rights
The above link is the most detail you are going to get on the 1993 agreement that is publicly available. This is from when Fox sued Marvel over mutant X. The courts discuss the 1993 agreement in ruling on that lawsuit and the implication here is that the rights are indefinite. If there was a time limit on the rights then it would likely have been referenced but the only reference to the rights returning to Marvel is in the event Fox does not produce a film within a set time period.
In October 1993, Fox and Marvel entered into an agreement (the “1993 Agreement” or “Agreement”) pursuant to which Marvel licensed to Fox the exclusive right to create, produce, distribute and market theatrical motion pictures based on the “X-Men Property” (or “Property”), which refers to the “X-Men comic book series.” (1993 Agreement ¶ 6.) The scope of the grant of rights was broad, although the media within which they could be exploited (i.e. theatrical motion pictures) was narrow. Paragraph 6 of the Agreement, entitled “Granted Rights,” states that Property to which Fox obtained rights included (i) certain characters specified in Exhibit A to the Agreement, (ii) the so-called “origin stories” of those characters appearing in the story or screenplay of the film, (iii) all individual storylines from individual comic books other than the origin stories, and, in a catch-all provision, (iv) “all other elements relating to the Property and the Characters.” (Id.) (emphasis added). This paragraph also specifies that the rights “include the right to use the title (or subtitle or portion of the title) of the Property or any component of the Property as the title of any Picture or related exploitation.” (Id.)** In addition to the $1.6 million purchase price, (Declaration of Thomas Rothman dated June 26, 2001 (“Rothman Decl.”) ¶ 10)2, and a percentage of gross proceeds**, (1993 Agreement ¶¶ 4, 5), Marvel was able to reserve, in Paragraph 7 of the Agreement, certain rights for itself in connection with the films to be developed by Fox.3 Other ancillary rights, which define the scope of Fox’s granted rights as applied to other media, are treated in Paragraph 8, the content of which is at the center of the parties’ contractual dispute in this case. Paragraph 8, entitled “Other Rights,” reads in pertinent part:
Marvel reserves all television rights [based on the Property] (other than television rights with respect to the Pictures produced hereunder). However, prior to the reversion (if any) of the Rights … Marvel shall not, without Fox’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Fox’s sole discretion, produce, distribute or exploit or authorize the production, distribution or exploitation of any live-action motion picture for free television exhibition, pay television exhibition, non-theatrical exhibition, or home video exhibition (on cassettes or discs) or any feature-length animated motion picture for non-theatrical exhibition or home video exhibition (on cassettes or discs).4
(1993 Agreement ¶ 8.) The possible reversion of rights to Marvel is addressed in Paragraph 9. In effect, this paragraph sets control dates by which Fox must create sequels by requiring reversion where “Subsequent Pictures” are not made within [155 F.Supp.2d 8] a certain time. (Id. ¶ 9.) The reversion dates set forth in this Paragraph were extended by an amendment to the Agreement signed by the parties on or about October 10, 2000.5 (See “X-Men II” Amendment/Extension ¶ 2(d).)
How Marvel went into Disney
Marvel went into bankruptcy in 1996 and emerged from Bankruptcy in September 1998.
so according to that graph Stan Lee owns nothing 'cept Stan Lee.
this explains why most artists are angry bitter people.
Singer released some production art on his instagram.
Speculation: It may be someone standing inside the sentient “Ship”,the ship owned by the Celestial race which altered Apocalypse into his more recognizable form.
It served as Apocalypse’s base in early X-factor issues.
After defeating him, x-factor lived in it for a while.
i feel like their are more shared characters.
Hey mr dangerous j, sir how old are you. If you are in your thirties good god find the lazerous pit quick
There are. Keep in mind that graph leaves out stuff like Galactus, Skulls, etc.
The Simpsons perfectly portrayed Stan Lee:

Yup singer getting all twinks
I have a feeling this Oscar Isaac guy is secretly gay… He was recruited too soon.
I thought only Hugh Jackman would be a decent Wolverine, then I saw Joaquin Phoenix as some kind of hippie with sideburns and I realized that lots of folk could give a decent Wolverine performance.
Look at that motherfucker:
He looks ugly as fuck, wouldn’t be profitable.
Would creampie new storm #barcelonastrokes
He’s supposed to play kind of a bum in that movie. I just made an example of someone who could, if he’s made-up properly, play Wolverine.
There’s not just Hugh Jackman.
You could find actors better suited for Wolverine but I doubt you’d find one as dedicated to the role as he’s been for 7-8 movies and 15 years. If they cg’d Jackman to look 5 feet tall he’d be perfect.
As long as Singer keeps giving the X-Men franchise scenes as epic as Nightcrawler and Quicksilver, and that plane scene in Superman Returns, give that man all the (legal) boy pussy he wants.
Damn he kinda looks perfect for the role, plus hes like 5’8 so its a hella lot easier to make him look canon.
Emma Frost meybeeeeee…
