D.J. Caruso or Len Wiseman for "Wolverine"?

[j over]

Apparently, Fox has lined up helmers D.J. Caruso and Len Wiseman as their top two choices for the "X-Men" spin-off "Wolverine". All I have to say is...those are the only two directors they could attract to the project?

Wiseman would do a fantastic job on a movie like this... I only have one request for this movie...

Give Wolverine his real costume!!!

Underworld was a great concept - poorly executed. But despite that I'd vouch for Wiseman. He knows the genre.

Jackman gonna be doing Wolverine again I assume? He is a good actor and plays the part well, but the one thing that urks me is that he is a foot too tall.

Am I the only one that noticed? If it was a few inches, alright, but Wolverine is like 5'3" or something, Jackman is clearly well over 6' (I think mybe even 6'4").

That's a huge difference. They did fine throughout X-Men movies with the filming so he didn't tower over everyone (since he's not meant to), but come on, an entire foot, lol?

Well, at least Jackman does a good job at acting the part.

Looking forward to seeing what Madripoor looks like on screen. Wonder where they'll shoot this?

Just watch Mel in the original Lethal Weapon, and imagine him with claws. Near perfect.

Bernie Lomax would have been good too.

Yes, I'm a nerd... so what? lol.

Like half you guys aren't also!

Seriously though, I'm a Hugh Jackman fan, but I never thought he was the perfect choice for Wolverine.

I'm a gigantic nerd, I just don't look like one.

Anybody who spends any time reading and posting on any kind of Intenet message board harbors a significant portion of nerd in his/her body.

(I recently read the first year or so of X-Men after the big 1970s reboot for a non-movie-related job, and yeah -- there was a time when every other panel had somebody making a joke about how short Wolverine was. But where are they going to find a 5'3" guy who's in good shape and can carry a movie? Danny Devito doesn't really fit the bill, and Tom Cruise likes to pretend he's at least 5'7".)
