Film School Rejects: Discuss: Should Storm be in Wolverine’s Origin?

  • TJL · 9 months ago
    I think the X Men franchise needs a reboot, so starting fresh with Wolverine seems like a good start.
    Let Halle get her own damn movie!
  • ANGRYBROOMSTICK · 9 months ago
    Halle Berry f--king ruined Storm, and I'm an avid X-Men reader. STORM DESERVES HER OWN MOVIE, BUT NO BLOODY HALLE BERRY!!!!!!!!!!!
  • Nevernude · 9 months ago
    no no no no no...under no circumstances should Halle get her own movie as Storm.
    Let Storm get her own damn movie! yes.
  • PaulSileo · 9 months ago
    Fine with me. Leave her out, I say.

    Yeah, she was one of the least palatable elements of the X-Men movies. I don't know if it was Halle or the way the character was written or a bit of both-- I haven't seen her in much else-- but I think working Gambit and Deadpool into a Wolvy "origin" tale is already stretching it a bit, unless he ends up in Kenya or Cairo at some point.

    X-men reboot will be good as well, but putting in Halle Berry as Storm in X-men Origin: Wolverine movie (Cole), is going to make it confusing. Although on the glimpse in the trailer we've seen a young Ororo (Storm) was shown. I think it was a perfect way to show the original orifins of all X-men character come together. Storm will be a good movie to make but her script will have to be strong if fan will love to see her in the big screen. Halle Berry or not I will still pay to see her on her own screen.

    only problem with showing the X-Men character's coming together is that Wolverine meets them FOR THE FIRST TIME in the first X-Men, are we just supposed to assume he already knew who she was and just didnt bother to bring it up?
  • JMoney · 9 months ago
    i didnt even read the article yet, but HELL NO she shouldn't be in Wolverine
  • DMuff · 9 months ago
    I like the fact this movie is starting fresh with a whole new cast a mutants and I'm happy they finally put Gambit in this, about damn time I say.

    wow she's so hot
  • Liam · 9 months ago
    Halle Berry wasn't in the trailer.
  • Cole_Abaius · 9 months ago
    Neither was I.

    This is an outrage.
  • CaptainReg0981 · 9 months ago
    You should point that out to Gavin Hood. Or are you should you weren't the one in the Fat suit? OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! J/K

    She doesn't need to be there. Just because she's an important X-Man doesn't mean she needs to be important to Wolverine. Let's focus on people who we know actually have a connection to him and stop throwing people in just for the hell of it.

    Ha hahah LMAO!
  • CaptainReg0981 · 9 months ago
    Professor X wiped it clean for everyone. LOL! But putting Emma Frost (the telepath with diamond body) on the trailer kinda made it confusing since she was a bad girl then turned good after Jean Grey is gone. I was hoping that if they make X-men 4 I would love to see Emma Frost become in the team replacing Jean Grey and maybe add Havok a long the way to replace Scott Summers (AKA Cyclops). But hey it's just a comic fantasy to continue the legacy.

    Halle Berry is a hack. She cant act her way out of a paper bag and the fact that she has an oscar proves once again that they dont mean anything. She is overratted, just like Storm is as a character. The character playing a small part as a cameo is cool, i guess, but her being anything more is a waste of screen time for more of....anything else.
  • _Christopher_M · 9 months ago
    was it actually Halle? I thought it was just an African child with white hair who appeared in the trailer...that's what started the whole Storm origin talk...I think there are better actresses that could play Storm..and Halle's career has slowly become lackluster her name can't carry a comicbook movie just look at Catwoman...I'd say Zoe Saldana (Avatar, Star Trek) or some other young actress should be given the role if they try to make a Storm movie...
  • Cole_Abaius · 9 months ago
    It was a really young Halle Berry created to look like a small African child through Button-style CGI.
  • babbalicious · 9 months ago
    I don't think it would be bad but I agree that Halle Berry shouldn't play Storm. I love the character but I think she is a terrible actress. I think it could have been very cool to see young storm with...um...younger Wolverine interact but aside from the novelty of seeing it in that form I don't think that it would make a beneficial impact on the movie.
  • xxstormore · 9 months ago
    Of course....she's amazing... the second popular character after wolverine. THe camoe can make the story more interesting. wolverine is good..but without the others cameos..the movie would be boring.
  • Aleric · 9 months ago
    NO
  • cheese · 9 months ago
    her character isn't old enough to exist during the time period in which 'wolverine' takes place.
  • MaleStrom · 8 months ago
    Then why is Gambit in it. He and Storm is the same age....But you are right, the movie will only confuse people from the timeline point of view.
  • MaleStrom · 8 months ago
    I love Halle, but she just wasn't/isn't Ororo material. Storm is strong, tough, intellegent, bold, sexy, beautiful, a leader with a vicious voice and she stands at 5'11''. Halle has majority of these traits with the exception of the tone in her voice and the correct hight. I want a Storm Movie more than anything, but I believe Roshumba Williams should play Ororo, whom is perfect in all expects of a Storm character, with Mary J Blige on the soundtrack of the movie.
  • ASDFGHJKL · 6 months ago
    All u guys dont no wat ur talkin about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Halle is a great acrtress and she is the perfect storm!!!!!!!!!!!
    Yall just jealous!!!!!!!!!!!
    No on else fits as her!!
    maby if they made more lines for her im the movies she could be more of the leader!
    and for the person who sed that storm is a leadrer, halle didnt get a chance to lead the team yet bcuz proffesser x just died!
    AND WHO CARES ABOUT WOLVERINE!!!!!! ALL HE DOSE IS HAVE KNIVES IN HIS FREAKING HANDS!!!!!! WHILE STORM CAN ELECTROCUTE U AND CONTROL ALL TYPES OF WEATHER!!!! NOW WAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • MaleStrom · 6 months ago
    I agree with you. I love Halle more than any other actress, and in the X-Men series she was great even though they held back on her true potential. For Storm the movie (I hope there is one soon) Halle wouldn't do it any justice. Watch Mortal Kombat Conqest and see Quali who is the black female ninja close friend of Kitana.. She has more Storm charactristics for a solo Movie than Halle Berry does. The only reason I'm a fan of X-Men is because i love Storm as well as Gambit, Psylocke, Rouge, Angel and Iceman. X-Treme X-Men was my favorite comic series ever, I would be hurt if they just up and throw a Storm movie together without putting their all into it. Storm is powerful, wise, independent, strong-willed, tough, strategic and capable of handling herself in hand to hand combact, with a loving heart as well. This is what I want to see in a Storm movie with gambit in it and powerful enemies. If it's thrown together just cause they want to satisfy Storm fan it's not worth making one, don't you agree?

    Man I'm sick of people calling Halle a hack. Maybe your a hack lol. Ya know I think Storm could have been better in the movies but I don't blame that on Halle. I blame that on the writers and directors. Storm and Cyclops were raped in these movies. Much because of the focus that was spent on Wolverine.
    Storm and Cyclops are the true leaders of the X-Men and have been for over 25 years and yet if you watch the movies you would think it was Wolverine. He got all of the good story and pretty much Storm and Cyclops were left with his table scraps and that made me sick. I really liked the X-Men movie however they shouldn't have been called X-Men they should have been called Wolverine and the X-Men.
    Now back to Storm. I would love to see Halle get to do a Storm origins movie as long as she had great writers and a director who cared about making Storm the Storm we all know and love. A strong leader, full of compassion and presence.
    Speaking about the Gambit movie Lauren Shuler Donner said that they might bring Storm into that movie. In the comics Storm and Gambit met first and spent alot of time together before she brought him into the X-Men. So they had always had a very special relationship.
    I for one love that idea.
    I say bring on Gambit movie, Storm movie, X-Men Fist Class, and last but certainly most of all X-MEN 4.
