    Opinions can be wrong if they're based entirely on bias. Yours is based on bias and your blind love for the idiotic MCU, which is far from being respectful to the source material and is nothing but generic popcorn flicks.
    Because of this, your opinion is wrong.

      Because they embraces the stuff that Fox is ashamed of (costumes, aliens, monsters, characters who have flaws and act like people)?

        When did I post that the entire movie didn't meet expectations??
        I said "to be blunt this looks like a pile of 5hit"
        Go back and read the OP. You're making 5hit up as you go along pal.
        Your assertion that some opinions are wrong is utterly devoid of perspective.
        What one person believes to be right or wrong can be the polar opposite of someone else's. This is dependent on many factors; upbringing, religious beliefs, intellect or taste - just to name a few.
        The fact that you think your opinion is more accurate and "right" than someone else's probably just says a lot about you.

              You mean like with Deadpool? Nope they didn't wuss out there.. This is already rated R and done filming.. No wussing out at this point..

                They didn't want to make Deadpool, and they did all they could to bury the film before release. Any success that film had, it didn't come from FOX.
                Logan will wuss out, as FOX is actually part of the production.

                      They put it in February, which is traditionally when studios dump films they knew would suck beforehand. And the Marketing Campaign was minimal and got the exposure it did thanks to Ryan Reynolds himself doing it.

                        1. March was a dump month too
                          Then along came hunger games
                          Hollywood is slowly abandoning the concept of movie "seasons " bit by bit
                        2. R rated movies and blockbusters don't mix
                          Case and point the nice guys

                          1. Not as much as Jan and Feb are. Those are the dead zones.
                          2. Says who? Just because Nice Guys didn't make a ton of cash doesn't mean anything.
                            District 9 was a Summer blockbuster rated R and it was a massive hit.

                            The trailer gave me expectations I never knew I had.
                            This is the first comic "superhero" movie I have ever looked forward to.
                            I have a low tolerance for all the family-friendly
                            /Disney-safe comedy/drama of the typical noisy CGI-fest superhero movie. I saw Ant-Man the other day and I could swear I was watching a combined sequel to A Bug's Life and Honey I Shrunk The Kids.

                              I have read many reactions elsewhere on social media to the effect that many grew up (physically) with the tale of Wolverine and his co-XMen over the years. Now that many have reached adulthood, isn't it even more likely that their entertainment choices would tend to be have a more dose of realism?
                              This trailer has given many hints as to how this new movie fare may be hewing to that changing taste in films for its original audiences.
                              Many are looking forward to this movie because of that promise!

                                Are you kidding me? This is one of the most competently made trailers I have ever seen. I've watched it multiple times and I usually never do that with trailers. They knew not to reveal too much about the plot in it; it was more of a 2-minute long teaser than a regular trailer. But that's great because I don't want to know any spoilers anyway (usually I avoid trailers because of them). But it has already convinced me to see the film (if it doesn't get panned) by just giving me a
                                feel
                                for what it will be like

                                    But very emotional and heart-tugging!
                                    The tone of the trailer led to the numerous times that the trailer has been watched a human story for a superhuman hero!

                                      As a Wolverine fan, I've been VERY disappointed in most of the X Men movies and ALL of his solo movies. And I'm not crying out for some R rated violent movie for him (although that is certainly his nature). The fact of the matter is he NEVER THINKS in these movies. While Logan is certainly a fighter and a brutal one at that who heavily counts on his healing factor, he still is a cunning, calculated fighter with animal stealth and smell and hearing and when they just have him barrel in and get taken down by 100 fighters he takes on all at once it TICKS ME OFF. The other thing that bothers me is yes, he has a temper and you should never ever get on the wrong side of it, but for the most part he has a deep seated personal belief to live and let live. He isn't a killing machine. It's part of what he fought against in the attempts to make him such.
                                      I keep my expectations low then I can be pleasantly surprised.

                                        The Wolverine featured a lot more than him just charging headfirst into combat, and went out of its way to portray him trying to avoid any kind of fighting, until he was forced.

                                          First, I am trying to make two points. One, that with exception to X1 and X2, for the most part, Wolverine has been poorly represented in the movies as being generally stupid and in plotless or lousy movies. My second point is I am afraid, in this new movie, that they're just going to make him brainlessly overkill violent due to the R rating.
                                          I will prove my first point (which Wolverine falls under) with just one sentence: Wolverine just walks up the MIDDLE OF THE TOWN to get shot with 50 arrows.
                                          I think your signature is hilarious 🙂
                                          I keep my expectations low then I can be pleasantly surprised.
