Wolverine isn't that short, he's between 5' 4"-5' 7". Here's a general rule of thumb when casting for Logan. The actor should playing him should be the shortest one. Though movie magic, you can make a 5' 8", 5' 7" guy appear even shorter:

Now Elijah Wood is 5' 6" and Sean Astin is 5' 6" put in The Lords of Rings, they made them appear even shorter, that's what you would do with actor playing Wolverine, with special effects, you make the necessary height adjustment. -
The trailer they showed at comic con looked pretty good but it looked like it will be too much about wolverine
post the trailer
-
After reading the post credit scene for Wolverine I got a feeling we gone be disappointed with this film too. SMH ? is ruining the X-men for me.

Jackie Earle Haley shoulda been wolverine (rorshach from watchmen)
that might work if he hits the gym and bulks up a little. dye his hare and give him some prosthetic side burns it might work and he is on the short side if i'm not mistaken. -
Also, none of the X-Men films so far really showed just how much mutants are hated and discriminated against. A few bad looks and one or two 'muties', but nothin' major
-
lol @ making a big deal out of jackman being taller than wolverine's supposed to be. You guys act like that's making the movies terrible.
"damn that was a good movie...but wolverine's height was all wrong! 2/10 would not watch again!" -
I woulda probably preferred Mickey Rourke with a Sin City make-up job to play Wolves, he's that old, same height, give him the wild hair look and the badassness that noone's ever seen in a protagonist.
Professor X is an easy character but I would put him in a floating wheelchair and not a real wheelchair.
Number 2:
Get rid of this old ass ? b.
Honestly, you don't even have to show Mag's face with the helmet especially with the CGI, they could of made him more mysterious.
I would have preferred Liam Neeson, George Clooney, Jeff Bridges or Richard Gere.
Magneto's suppose to look like this. Semi-old but not too old.

You gotta remember though, not everything that works in comics and cartoons is gonna be able to work in live action films. There's only so much you can do with cgi and special effects before it turns into Star Wars Episode 1.

I think the reason they casted an elderly man to play that role because in the original 60's comics he was elderly until when chris Claremont came along I thing a sorcerer cast a spell on him and turned him into an infant and when he was restored they put him in his late 20's early thirties and that's why he the current version is younger and more athletic in appearance. doesn't he also have a clone named joseph? as for his age in the movie I think a ? concentration camp survivor would be well into his 80's by now. -

So why wasn't some tall ass 6'2" ? cast to play Spider-Man, but yet why weren't some short ass ? cast to play Superman or The Batman? -

But alot of things didn't add up. They didn't explain how nightcrawler and rogue were brother and sister, how mystique is their mother or how Beast and Wolverine are cousins or how Juggernaut and Professor X are step brothers. Magneto was never 80 in the comics, the reason why they made him younger was to keep him up to date with the story cause ain't no way Stan Lee wanted to have the X-Men fight an 99 year old man. Why is Rogue still the same lame ass character without Ms. Marvel's powers. Everything about X Men sucked ass bruh. -
hopefully at the end of this film the xmen return to thier time to find it taken over by Apocalypse(ala thanos) setting up the a days of future past 2...wich will include cable (played by bruce willis)
-
Yo, Liam Neelson as Magneto would be some awesome ? to see.
-
I wonder will they explain how professor Xavier survived
-
wolverine and beast are cousins? I missed out on a whole lot. there's too many family ties and backstories to make the perfect x-men movie. it's too complicated i'm starting to see sour's point. it's easier to pull of an avengers movie than an x-men movie.
-
That was explained in x men 3I wonder will they explain how professor Xavier survived

i think they get michael fassbender from first class again and make him look older, dude is a great actor mayne and was the goat magneto
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRxwoqrwevc -
part where he was teaching class n talking to Dr. Mctaggert and asking the class if it would be ethical to transfer His memories into a body of a brain dead man....and after the credits rolled they showed the man open his eyes
What I don't understand is how he looks identical to Xavier
But they'll probably get into all that ...they have to -

Exactly, two completely different directors, it's like they try to fix a story and bring back the old director to ? it up again. -

A whole lot of loop holes that cannot be forgiven. For one, Xavier didn't get paralyzed from getting shot in the back, he had a disease. Juggernaut and Xavier didn't even recognize each other but in the comics, mark use to bully him. Cap and Logan fought in the cold war too. -
Now look at the actor choices for Quicksilver between the Avengers and X-Men.
Bryan Singer is using Evan Peters who looks nothing like Quicksilver to play Magneto's son with no Scarlett Witch.
And Director Joss Whedon is using Aaron Johnson from Kickass to play Quicksilver and adding in Scarlett Witch played by Saiorse Ronan. Fox claims that Disney can use Quicksilver but they can't mention that they're related to Magneto.
Also Vin Diesel is playing Vision and it's rumored that Morris Chestnut is playing Black Panther.
Joss Whedon actually does his studying and has the perfect cast while Bryan Singer just ? sucks as a director. I ain't watching that ? b, ? FOX.
-
Yeah Bryan Singer gives zero ? . Only person he got right was Hugh Jackman as Wolverine.
My expectations for this movie are little to none.
Next batman xmen are my favorite and he is ? them up. -

And you really expected them to explain ALL of that in that one movie? C'mon people. Let's be serious. Like someone said, what works in the comics, doesn't mean it's gonna work on screen.
