Christensen isn’t a bad actor (he was great working with Hank Azaria in Shattered Glass). Nobody could have saved that direction and dialogue.
I think the dialogue and direction perfectly captured a shut-in teenage monk trying to flirt with the most attractive woman in the galaxy.
there was a lot cut. the cut parts make it make sense and remove some of the cringe. its not a story that the Jedi would tell
When did he flirt with Asajj Ventress?
Every time that they fought. She had eyes for Kenobi though
Same! I never understood the criticism. Yeah, all of his dialogues are awkward. But they perfectly fit his character.
Check out Life as a House if you haven’t seen it. The kid can actually act. Also, that movie may just fuck up your day, so have the tissues prepped.
that was the first thing i saw him in before Ep. II. Then i saw that and was like, “wtf happened?!”
George happened
Fun fact: When watching the german versions of the prequels, the acting isn’t a problem anymore, as professional voice actors bring their own take to the characters and make some of it much more tolerable. Hayden was screwed by bad directing. And script of course.
Yeah, not the same look.
But I’ll let you have intensity.
That’s from the first X-Men. He was definitely more shredded in X-2 or either Wolverine movies.

I think what they’re saying is that no one mentioned the 1st movie. X2 came out in 2003, more than 20 years ago.

Trebolone is literally a magic potion, but it’s so very bad for you.
Oh I know, toblerones go straight to my hips!
And trebolone will melt that fat right off. But it’s absolute poison.
Logan was 2017, so hardly 20+ years.
Well, reprising the original role, if you will.
Fuck, what do you mean it’s been 24 years since 2000?
That can’t be right, it’s clearly only been about 10, right?
Logan was in 2917, not 20 years ago
2917
i think you’re off by a bit there…
Im calling the time police
Hello, yeah. Time police.
We’ll send someone round last Tuesday.
We’ll have sent someone round last Tuesday.
Man, Patrick really doesn’t age.
I saw D&W yesterday and I was blown away by the acting Hugh Jackman brought to it. I’ve always been a little skeptical of him as Wolvie because I’m a comic fan and Wolverine is supposed to be small and nasty - not tall and pretty and kind and into musicals. Like Hugh Jackman is. When Hugh Jackman hosted the Oscars it hurt my brain to see him pirouetting and tap dancing and singing.
But after yesterday: fucking respect man. He made Wolverine his. The comic Wolverine is still there and always will be but Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine is now legit in its own right in my mind, forever.
The whole film helped honestly the way they costumed him and choreographed his claws-out squats. But he for sure brought every acting chop there is to the close ups. No one will ever take heartfelt acting seriously in a gonzo film like this, but I did. Tear to my eye.
Thank you Mr. Jackman. All the respect.
I don’t understand… He already accomplished that earlier this century.
It took me until now to be sold. Thats just me.
In one of the original XMen trilogy BTS he acknowledged that he was playing against type. He said he would start his day shooting in the Canadian winter with a cold shower, because it set him on edge and gave him the intensity and low-level anger he needed to play the part. Definitely worth checking out those movies if you liked him here.
I want a Wolverine musical, dammit!
They actually made one from when he was living in France in the early 1800s. It was before his mutant power’s had fully manifested to the point they are in the comics. It’s called the Les Miserables.

I loved how they showed how dumb tiny wolverine would have looked.
Thought wesley snipes didn’t do a bad job either. and mother fuckers tryin’ ice skate uphill was goddamn excellent
I’d watch an Anakin/Wolverine show. First half, anakin gets sent to Northern Alberta with nothing but his wits. He meets up with Logan, after a few episodes as rivels they work together and become friends. Second half, they figure out how to get Anakin back and the who the villains who sent him there are. Logan comes with, brcause they are basically be(a)sties now. Logan gets lightsaber claws. Anakin gets even.
lightsaber claws
That sells it.
2 word elevator pitch.
Adamantium vs lightsaber - who wins?
Why choose? How about a lightsaber with an adamantium hilt?
I think adamantium, will probably behave like Beskar without heating.
Hugh Jackavan.
