Me, MEW and Giant Tylenol Man after a 9.30pm screening of Wolverine in Dundas Square.

May 3rd, 2009

The last twenty four hours in ticket stubs.

May 3rd, 2009

Random thought…

For anyone who saw WOLVERINE - did the the post credits scene with Danny Huston walking along the road with his tattered loafers remind you of Jeffrey Jones post credit scene in FERRIS BUELLER’S DAY OFF. I half expected Yello to strike up on the soundtrack…

    Wow 15 bucks a ticket. Thats almost as bad as the prices in NYC. Its 12.50 here. Yea they were three secret ending or w/e. Movie was flat, since when do super hero movies lack heart? Wolverine hurt my feelings. So sad.

    I was at that screening of Best Worst Movie!
    By any chance were you the second person to ask a question of the cast/crew? Definitely sounded like you.

    Looking forward to seeing Troll 2 again on Tuesday. It’s one of those movies that’s made better by seeing it with a crowd that’s so into it.

      I was there, as was Mister Cera and Young Johnny Simmons, but didn’t ask a question.

    now i understand…

    i thought cos it said best worst movie, and at the bottom that the ticket was a ballot, that you had to vote for whether the movie was best/worst youd seen.
    you couldve just said!

    also - sad about dom deluise (cannonball and smoky both great)

    Best line of the whole movie “Back to Back!” - died laughing.

    Crap, now every time I think of that final Stryker scene, the Ferris Bueller music will be playing in my head. Thanks Edgar.

    Speaking of Ferris Bueller’s Day Off…is it just me or does MEW look a little like Mia Sara in this pic?
    Now I want to watch Ferris and Legend.

    So what did you think of Wolverine Edgar? I thought it was the biggest pile of steaming crap since X3.

    For those who didn’t see the post credits scenes, you really haven’t missed much. There’s the one mid-credits with Danny Huston, and I saw one with Logan “drinking to remember” in a bar in Japan. Apparently there was also one with Deadpool/Weapon XI/Whatever the frack its meant to be putting his head back on and (apparently) another of Ryan Reynolds’ Wade/Deadpool showing up and saying “who the frack are you?” to the head, implying its a clone, although that one may not be real.

    I just think it’s incredibly ill-spirited of Fox not only to short-change us on the movie itself, (a topic I’m saving for another board,) but to basically use the whole “multiple easter egg endings” thing as a way of bolstering their numbers through repeat viewings and not giving people anyway of choosing for themselves which ending they get to see. Edgar would never try such a blatantly selfish stunt with any of his movies. *pause for effect*

    Terrible, terrible film.

    On the plus side Edgar, I loved you as Gambit.

  • pieface

    i like that mew’s hair matches your hat.

    what is the stub for the ‘best worst’ film you saw at the bloor? the ballot idea’s good.

    • pieface

      if there’s four of you going to the bloor cinema, dyou walk along singing ‘four to the bloor’ to the tune of ‘four to the floor’ (i keep thinking of that tune when i read you talking about the bloor).

    • Stature

      The ballot idea is pretty good, but it means I can’t keep the ticket stub. It looks like Edgar didn’t vote! Unless he took the pic prior to leaving.

    • wendy

      Whoa ..wait..did you just say nilbog….lol Troll 2 sucks but it had some moments. Thats crazy all of the theaters are shut down..you’d think one would be open to rake in the money. They could hand out masks with the tickets…

    who thought the Deadpool “shh!” part at the very end of the credits was incredible lame???

    • Adamus maximus

      I don’t see how you couldn’t think that.

      Did Sabretooth ever realize what he was saying? (“We can’t let you leave!” but they do. “No one kills you but me” but he doesn’t simply drop him.)

  • wingless

    I think the real question is: if Deadpool has blades as long as he does, how does he bend his arms?

    I went to see Wolverine on friday, It was horrible.

    P.S. The Ramones Song Ramona would make a great end credits song. If anyone cares, here’s the link to the song.

    You are such a geek. But you’re totally right. I love how that works out. Did you guys stay until the very end of the credits? What scene did you have? My theatre got Logan in Japan, “drinking to remember.” And your cameo as Gambit was a pleasant surprise.

    … You saw TROLL 2?! I bet it was awesome.

  • Joe Brogan

    There are multiple post credit scenes

    • http://www.edgarwrighthere.com Edgar Wright

      If there’s one with “Oh Yeah” scoring the Danny Huston scene, then I’ll eat my stub.

      • Josh Frydman

        There’s one where he gets kicked in the balls by Jennifer Grey.

        I don’t even see how it was relevant to the story.

      • Freddy Loayza

        Way ahead of you Edgar.

    • Palmer

      The one with Danny Huston walking was in all of the copies of the films. There was more after that one. Either one involving Wolverine or one with “Deadpool.”
