We’re just two weeks away from the start of the summer movie season and the release of the film that’s kicking it off: X-Men Origins: Wolverine.

With the movie’s release rapidly approaching, we’re entering the final stages of marketing and so we have a few new images for you including an international poster and a pretty cool milk advertisement.

Check them out and see what you think:

Liev Schreiber as Sabretooth

Sabretooth and Wolverine in X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Hugh Jackman as Wolverine

Without any text, all of these images would make for great posters. Notice how they keep emphasizing Cyclops’ inclusion in the film – strange as he’s such a minor character.  They’re really trying to show off the popular Marvel characters to tie this into the original X-Trilogy for the non-comic readers or those who only saw/still watch the old or new cartoon series’.

While the actual movie promo shot of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine looks awesome, it just seems so ordinary now. It seems like we’ve seen so many images of Wolverine standing with his blades out over the years that it has become so non-special and uninteresting. This for me, makes the Got Milk ad the best image out of the group.

We can chalk that up to over-exposure of the character in the comics for far too long and now in the movies too. Let’s hope he’s as bad-ass as Jackman proclaims he is in this movie.

What do you think of the images?

  1. Wow, he has muscles on his muscles that are on his shoulders!!!!!! I wanna be like him :(

  2. I think the “got milk?” ad is a very bad idea.

  3. I kinda digg the Got Milk ad.

    It’s cool advertising for both sides and if that ad came out when I was watching the animated series in the 90s as a kid, I’d be drinking all the milk I could find, lol.

  4. LOL that was hilarious

  5. I’m still in awe at how bad-ass Liev Schrieber looks.

  6. You have to admit, Jackman looks like a stud in this film. See kids, drink milk and get muscles like Jackman.

    But then, when you grow up you have to do what Arnold says: “I don’t drink milk, milk is for babies. When you grow up, you drink beer.”

  7. SK-47, dont you mean “BIIIAA” instead of beer?

  8. @Oscar

    It’s doable – just takes a LOT of hard work and self discipline.

    He does look amazing in that pic, gotta say…

    Vic

  9. Oh, thats why its not working :) lol

  10. One thing about Jackman I admire, he always stays in good shape. From the movies I have seen him in: X-Men, Swordfish, The Prestige, X-2, Last Stand, Australia and now this, he stays fit.

    Oscar, yes, it should be “BIIIAA”

  11. Is it just me, or does Sabretooth/Liev Schrieber look a little chubbier in those pics than the other ones?

  12. Cool…I love Jackman …and I love Milk…so… may be…
    …I m hungry!!!

  13. This doesn’t amuse me.

    Jackman, have you no shame,,,

  14. I am crazy on wolverine. I saw every part of X-Men film and the raise of the wolverine too , I think the up comming flim would give me more satisfaction .

  15. HEY 790… HUGH IS A GREAT GUY AND IS DOING THAT AD FOR A GOOD CAUSE SO GIVE HIM A BREAK
