Weekly Ketchup: Wolverine in Japan, Family Guy movie planned

by Greg Dean Schmitz | May 08, 2009

Summary

This week's Ketchup features five new projects for Hugh Jackman following the success of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, two new movies each for Ben Stiller and Ray Stevenson, and new movies for Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson, Samuel L. Jackson, Keanu Reeves and even... Peter Griffin??? After X-Men Origins: Wolverine opened last weekend to $85 million, it's not surprising that 20th Century Fox is already developing a sequel. On half of the prints in theaters there is a scene after the credits that shows Wolverine drowning his sorrows in a Japanese bar. That scene is indeed intended to be a teaser for Wolverine 2, which will see Logan heading to Japan, a popular and long-running setting for his adventures in the comics. Back to Article

Hopefully Wolverine: In Tokyo! is better then X-men Origins Wolverine, which shouldn't be too hard if they get a good writer and director. Same goes for Deadpool. I don't hate Reeves, but that idea sounds kind of bad, don't let him use a british accent like Dracula! Ugh, I stopped watching Family Guy a long time ago so I don't care.

I just realized there was nothing overly exciting here. I guess Deadpool and all is kinda cool, if done right (doubtful). I want to see the Rock in Rundown 2 before anything else. Christina in a movie? Maybe if she's nude as often as EB was in Showgirls. Nothing really sounds good. I guess all the studios are busy promoting their summer movies to release anything exciting this week.

Right on, Jokerboy. I completely agree with you on Family Guy. Really, it's unwatchable now.

Also, I think the most interesting news is Keanu Reeves planning to play two different characters. Funny, I didn't know he could play one, let alone two. Should be entertaining in a Bill and Ted kinda way.

And again, I'm happy that Vin is really putting himself out there for his next role. He's really showing his range. How could someone of his talents fall so far?

Seriously, I'm excited for the IMAX NASA thing. It reminds me of the Discovery Channel's When We Left Earth. Space is just fascinating.

Well...as bad as the movie is likely to be...Christina playing a stripper has to at least place Burlesque above anything with either Keanu or Vin...

I'm excited to hear about the Family Guy movie, although it looks like it could be a while before we get it. Deadpool could be good, I'm wondering how they're going to pare down all the powers they gave Deadpool in Wolverine though. I think they need to find new writers and a new director for the next Wolverine movie too.

I know what they could do for Family Guy!

Stewie could try to kill Lois! What? Done a hundred times? Oh.
How about, Peter could goof around with the Grim Reaper! Oh. That's dead, too, LOL.
What about Brian getting drunk and becoming a great singer! Oh, that's all he ever does? Shame.
Maybe Meg could become popular for a short time? Or Chris could find some hidden talent? Really? That's all they do too, huh?

Well, s%$#, I guess this movie won't have an orignal plotline at all. Shame.

Wolverine 2? Probably will suck just like the first because it's in the hands of Fox, and if anyone can name a really good adaptation movie they've done in the past 3-5 years, I'd like to know what it is. My list of crappy Fox genre movies:

X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009) Dragonball Evolution (2009) Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li (2009) The Day the Earth Stood Still (2008) Max Payne (2008) Babylon A.D. (2008) The X Files: I Want to Believe (2008) Space Chimps (2008) Meet Dave (2008) Jumper (2008) AVPR: Aliens vs Predator - Requiem (2007) Fantastic Four Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007) The Seeker: The Dark Is Rising (2007) Pathfinder (2007) Eragon (2006) My Super Ex-Girlfriend (2006) The Omen (2006) X-Men: The Last Stand (2006) Fantastic Four (2005) Hide and Seek (2005) Elektra (2005) AVP: Alien vs. Predator (2004)

Yeah, I don't think Wolverine 2 is gonna be a good movie, not when it's made by a studio that hasn't produced a good adaptation in years. Similarly, given how much they messed up Deadpool in Wolverine, I'm at a loss for words about what they can possibly do with that. Add to it that Ryan Reynolds would probably never agree to have his face scarred up and covered in a mask for the entire movie and I really think that the character is gonna suffer.

Family Guy lost its steam several seasons ago, especially when they changed the Stewie character so much from his roots. Can't say I'm all that excited about a feature film.

The stills for TRIBES OF OCTOBER looked interesting, but I think the news item that gets me the most excited is HUBBLE 3D.

I liked "Wolverine", but a sequel could certainly improve on some issues. (CGI/ Too many characters). I'm pumped for Deadpool!

"Family Guy" sucks. "The Simpsons" and "Family Guy" were once funny, but now they're unwatchable.

You've gotta be kidding me about Family Guy...guys. The latest season was fantastic. Sputnik you are over exaggerating. Stewie attempting to kill Lois really only happened one episode, it's normally just used a quick meaningless joke. Grim Reaper been in a few times but he was pretty funny. Haha when ppl just drop dead when they touch him (but not Peter somehow?) Brian became a singer once i remember, meg was popular idk twice and i don't think Chris has ever had a hidden talent haha. Yeah it's not the most original show ALL THE TIME but no show is, and it is still funny the majority of the time.

Wolverine: Tokyo Drift. Let's hope for a not ****ty script this time.

Deadpool movie- there's about a 90% chance it will be an awful script and FOX will screw it up. And why do you all think there has to be continuity with his ****ty version in the Wolverine movie? Come on...not everything needs continuity especially when the previous movie ****ed something up bad. Plus it is his own movie, give him a fresh start with no continuity with the Wolverine movie, please.

Vin- wow, couple of horrible writers and bad idea for a movie. I wish Vin Diesel would try to go for some good scripts.

All of these sound like bad ideas and obvious money grabs. Shame on Hollywood.

At one time, McFarlene said he wanted to make Family Guy the Movie a musical, and do things that he wouldn't be able to do on television. So my guess is a R-rated sing a long in the vein of South Park Movie. If done like that, could be fantastic. Family Guy really needs something to make it good again. I personally loved The Simpsons Movie, so I have hopes for Family, cause I use to love that show to death.

Thank yous to everyone for not pointing out that I left out the "Louis" in Robert Louis Stevenson. :P

@Phillip M: This was actually a particularly news-filled week, as there were several movies I had to leave out when compiling a top 10/11. Here's a brief rundown of what almost made the list:

* James McAvoy, Elizabeth Banks, Anna Friel and Laura Linney will star in "The Details," a black comedy about people dealing with raccoons in their backyard.
* Will Ferrell is in talks to star in "Neighborhood Watch," a comedy from the director of "Wedding Crashers" and "Fred Claus."
* "Billy Smoke," based on an upcoming comic, starring Matthew Fox (LOST) as an assassin out to rid the world of assassins, from the director of "Traitor."
* "A Very Harold and Kumar Christmas" got its title and obvious theme, as well as a 11/5/10 release date.
* McG talked up the premise for "Terminator 5" this week, saying he wants to send John Connor back in time to before Judgement Day to rally the troops.
* Rachel Weisz to star in "The Whistleblower," about a Nebraska cop who becomes a U.N. peacekeeper in post-war Bosnia, who reveals a sex-trade ring.
* Katie Holmes will star in the remake of "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark."
* Brett Ratner is out as director of "Conan."
* Robert Rodriguez's remake of "Barbarella" is dead.

In a less news-filled week, any of those could have easily made the top ten, so I figured I might as well give you a special little #12-#20 recap !

Hugh Jackman is a turd. My gf and I went to see Australia because she wanted to see it and I was bored. I almost died, seriously. Go see Crocodile Dundee instead. I hate reading articles saying he made the Wolverine character. Wolverine was around a lot longer and more bada$$ than Jackman could ever dream to make him. Vin Diesel is a turd. If he was as good an actor as everybody tries to make him, wouldnt you think he'd take a role in a movie other than Faster and Furiouser (aka The Wheelman)? Keanu Reeves is a turd. He hasnt made a decent movie since Bill and Ted. "I know Kung Fu!" One of the worst lines in movie history. The Rock is a turd. In every movie he's made, you can smell what he's cooking: sh*t. Captain Nemo is a sea captain, he needs to be old and grizzled, not frickin WILL SMITH. WHAT ARE PEOPLE THINKING?!? Sometimes I just wanna dig my eyes out with a spork when I read casting choices. Just hurry up and get The Road in the theaters so we can actually see well done, thought out movie making.

since Iron Man? Good thing you don't write reviews... The movie was FUN, not GOOD. The story or should say the lack of story... is what makes it bad. The only visible story in the film was between Wolverine and Sabertooth. The rest was just filler story. The action cwas decent, but all the slow motion shots of wolverine made it average. I don't need to see slow motion wolverine with flames behind him etc... More Gambit, less slow mo. They got Gambit pretty good, the power of him is visible in nearly every scene. Gambit get knocked out in an ally by Wolverine, Wolverine fights Sabertooth in the ally, then Gambit comes running from roof tops to fly in from above... did he really get up, climb up to the roofs, then fly down? Theres too many flaws in the film to consider it good, its just a FUN film, but fails on quality. Back to the comment... In order of release.... Iron Man, Hulk, Dark Knight, Wolverine... You said Wolverine was the best since Iron Man... You fail at life.

I agree with the majority here: family guy movie is not needed and I won't go see it. The show was funny at one time but now it sucks big time (oddly enough I think American Dad has really picked up steam). Brian is now a major liberal pain in the @$$ and Stewie, who used to be funny, is now just a gay baby (where did you go Seth MacFarlane? Did you and George Lucas have your once talented brains stolen by aliens? Sometimes I think that.....). On another note I enjoyed the Wolverine movie so the second one could be interesting.

@Captain of Team Loyalty: I didn't care for MARLEY & ME, but hey, if you consider a marginal, rather mediocre movie a "good adaptation," with a 60% T-meter, go right ahead. Just because YOU think it's great, it doesn't mean it is. Also, if you think that makes up for universally derided garbage like DRAGON BALL: EVOLUTION, STREET FIGHTER: LEGEND OF CHUN LI, BABLYON A.D., etc., go right ahead - it only shows your mental capacity.

@jokerboy1991: At least you can admit that AUSTRALIA wasn't a great movie even if you enjoyed it. Respect.

@Jeremy H: LOL at the turd list. I think Hugh Jackman has some talent as an actor, but it doesn't show in tripe like WOLVERINE, SWORDFISH, and his godawful romantic comedies (KATE & LEOPOLD? Ugh). He was better in THE FOUNTAIN, but he decided to cash in as much as possible and decided to make a crappy WOLVERINE movie so that he could line his pockets. The rest have limited acting chops, but are serviceable.

@RateCinema: I'd agree with your analysis, with the exception being that I didn't even find the movie fun. Just tedious, stupid, and cliched.

You should learn that YOUR OPINION is not FACT, either. I didn't happen to care for MARLEY AND ME (a decision made based on my watching of the movie, not based on what critics say). As it happens, critical opinion is with me on that one, that it is not a GREAT movie. When you're touting a movie as GREAT because it was IN YOUR OPINION great, and you have nothing to back you up, you're just sounding like a tool. It's not like I'm attacking THE GODFATHER, which is universally considered a *GREAT* movie.

But oh yeah, you have poor taste in movies, so I guess that makes sense.

I'm worried about a family guy adaptation. It's all over the place. I LOVE Aqua Teen Hunger Force, but I merely liked the movie, while many hated the movie.

Family Guy seems to be about 25-35% linear an episode with a ton of tangents and even non-tangents thrown in. South Park is mostly linear, and in my opinion, far superior to Family Guy.

Captain of TeamLoyalty: "i like good movies and Marley and Me is one of them and proves that you are wrong"

Ahem. Right there, you are stating that your opinion of MARLEY AND ME is a fact. If your opinion weren't fact, then it wouldn't be proving me wrong, would it? I don't believe that my opinions are facts, but I can at least substantively defend them. All you do is resort to juvenile retorts and namecalling.

Opinions are like @$$holes - everybody's got one. However, some opinions are better informed than others. For example, if you ask a guy who's watched 5 movies his opinion of CORKY ROMANO, and he thinks it's great compared to what movies he's seen, I wouldn't give his opinion much credit at all, especially if he can't articulate what makes a movie good. Do I value the opinions of critics? I don't let them think for me, but sure I value the opinions of people that watch hundreds of movies a year because they have a good basis to compare things to. Their opinions are more informed.

I explained to you why I believe you have poor taste. You elevate movies like WOLVERINE - which even people that enjoyed it admit was deeply flawed - while dismissing THE DARK KNIGHT, which is popular from a critical and fan perspective, as well as from filmmakers who understand the technical aspects of making a movie (the Academy). None of that matters to you though because YOU HAVE AN OPINION (which you treat like fact).

When I say that I think MARLEY AND ME is a piece of sentimental, maudlin crap that doesn't earn the emotional heartstring tuggings that it so desperately tries to, I'm saying that in the context of someone who watches 300 movies a year, including most major US releases, a lot of foreign films, and moves from every decade. You want a movie that earns the emotional impact that it strives for? GRAVE OF THE FIREFLIES. A book about dogs that ears its emotions? WHERE THE RED FERN GROWS. At any rate, I am not certain how anyone can call MARLEY AND ME "great." Even if you liked it, it is not a GREAT movie. It's a forgettable flick that no one will talk about 10 years from now. THE LION IN WINTER is a great movie. You're just an @$$hole with an opinion.

In spite of the fact that not only have numerous people spoken in my defense and repeatedly pointed out how juvenile you are, you still somehow live in your own little fantasy world where you aren't an idiot. In answer to your last question (those are supposed to end with question marks, smart guy), the answer is no, I have no desire to communicate with a juvenile like yourself.

I bet you cant without laughing. what they're gonna do is oh Mc charlies angels G will turn it into a big light show with some pretty colored fish to look at and Will Smith will spout off his one liners and everybody will say "this is so amazing" because we've all been brainwashed into thinking as such. To prove my point: who the hell thought it was a good idea to cast the Twilight guy as Salvidor Dali?

Family Guy, Simpsons and South Park have all had their share of highs and lows and then coming back strong again so I don%u2019t go for the premature knee-jerk reactions. I'm excited about a Griffin family film and hope they can pull it off.

The real question is how the f*** a mediocre talent like Keanu Reeves keeps landing these prime roles? I%u2019m not saying he%u2019s terrible, but isn%u2019t there somebody better?

Have you even bothered to read any of Reynold's interviews on his love for Deadpool? Every time he was asked about a spin-off he would retort with something like "I would love to do a 100% faithful, fourth-wall breaking, wise cracking, costume wearing Deadpool movie". So if it gets f-ed up it won't be because of him. I'm more worried about Fox wanting it to be "kid friendly" which will never work for the character.

It should be rated R, or PG-13, and you have an uncut version.

Hey, Bob S, I always thought it was funny that he never responded to my last comment on the other thread we were on. I love how he also said he's not a homophobe as you uses derogatory terms for homosexuals to describe people. Awesome!

To Jeremy H: I hope McG's Terminator movie blows everyone away so you can eat your words. Charlie's Angels was supposed to have that look, I've never seen it, but I know what he was going for. His Terminator movie looks a lot different and could possibly prove that McG is better than people give him credit for. Remember, Jim Cameron's first movie was Pirahna 2, who would have thought The Terminator and Aliens was in his future?!

Good point, but that was Cameron's only movie before Terminator while McG has done 3 movies to prove himself- Charlie's Angels 1 and 2, and We Are Marshall. We Are Marshall was actually decent. I think he's going to prove himself with T4, I'm sure it will be a good movie, but I bet it's not going to be great. Probably just a fun action movie, as long as it's better then T3 then I'm happy.

T3 was okay. T1 is great. T2 is the best, obviously. T4 should be good.

Hey whitey you need to learn that calling someone a f.ag does not mean that i am scared of gays. Learn the word before you use it.

Yeah, I know the word Captain, and I know it's typically used as a derogatory term for homosexuals by those who hate or are afraid of them (it's actually typically used as a defensive mechanism for those who are unsure of their own sexuality actually). The other definition of ***-got (which I explained in an earlier thread) is a bundle of sticks, and if that's what you mean to call people than you should probably think of something else.

I still think T3 was fun, the problem was that it had some decent ideas, but the ideas were strung together in a script that was a rehash of two better movies in an effort for a quick cash grab. I thought the concept of the Terminator in T3 being the one who killed John Connor was a good concept, but with the film being an overproduced action film it lacked the emotional resonance it could have had. It's sad because I love Nick Stahl (Carnivale was one of the greatest tv shows ever produced on modern television) and I've come to like Claire Danes more in recent years (she was great it Shopgirl and Stardust). I also feel like Mostow didn't really have a voice to say anything that would resonate with the audience the way Cameron did with the first two movies. Kind of like Wolverine, fun movies that really don't amount to much more than that.

I think T4 will be much better though. The talent is on a new level as a whole, and it seems like McG's biggest problems before had to do with casting (McConaughy got a lot of bad reviews for his performance in We Are Marshall), sub-par scripts, and it seems that the Charlie's Angels movies were just supposed to be fun movies that had butt kicking women and weren't worried with critics (I never watched them, not my cup of tea). It seems like he fixed his issues this time out so I think we'll see a much better film, and from reading interviews it appears this one might go back to actually having something to say.

I actually have fun pointing out his ignorance without dropping to his level. I actually got him to admit he was wrong, and I actually got him to shut up on another thread. What's really bad about him is that he causes otherwise intelligent posters to lose their cool, I don't do that, I just have fun pointing out his ignorance even if he won't catch on.

Ignorance? No ignorance is thinking that make fun of fa.gs means you fear them. Plus the reason why Ledawg fa.g is ignoring me is because he is pissed that he can never beat me. He is a *****.

family guy is still funny.. if your really really baked, only because it's such random nonsense. But since I stopped blazing I have found it isn't too great anymore, and I cannot watch the new simpsons.. im sorry the new ones are terrible. Homer's character has changed so much, the writers try way too hard now, and hes become unlikeable. The best ones were when Conan O'brien was working with the show, all around that point in time.

For all of you who enjoy family guy but want a bit of a new slice on things, a show i would suggest is "Tim and Eric Awesome Show! Great Job". A complete mind-f***. Enjoy.

Dear 20th Century Fox:
Thanks for the bucket of vomit you spewed out and called 'Origins.'

PS, instead of spending all that cash on sub-par special FX, use it to hire a writer that knows what dialogue is, and a director that's not in over his head.

Thanks so much

Since it's located in Japan and is likely to include The Hand, I wonder if Psylocke will be in the next Wolverine movie...played by...drumroll....

Kristen Kreuk!

Wolverine was hardly the best superhero movie since Iron Man. In fact, it was the worst one since Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, and the sequel can only be worse.
