Logan (New Wolverine movie March 3rd 2017)

Wtf is that? Powder all grown up?

He does look pretty creepy in the first pic (nice nod to his FA IIRC). Artsy pics aside, I hope they're an indicator of the film's cinematography and general feel. I don't want for them to suddenly go with bright colours and a "wide-screen" approach.

Mathieson shot Gladiator, Kingdom of Heaven and Robin Hood (2010). The guy's talented. At the same time, I agree that this should look more toned down. Something like Michael McDonough's work on Winter's Bone or Adam Arkapaw's on True Detective.

I won't lie, after all these Jarmusch-ian teaser pics I'd **** my pants if they went the Down By Law/Stranger Than Paradise route and kept the movie black and white. I would literally **** my pants at such a bold statement from a CBM. I don't see it happening though.

Well there's precedent with black and white comic adaptations with the two Sin City films and certain episodes of The Walking Dead. I agree that it'd be great to see them go that route with Logan.

It'd also allow them to do NC-17 violence in an R-rated film which is why Tarantino dropped the color for that one sequence at the end of the first Kill Bill.

I can't remember, but didn't Caliban die in Apocalypse?

First pic looks like Darkman.

It definately reminded me of Darkman the second I saw it.

If he's alive in this then yes, probably.

He didn't die in XMA.

Too true.

"But why attack The Force Awakens? Isn't Star Wars good again?"

"DiFabio knows that the counterattack will destroy his enemies in the superhero threads. In a panic they try to ban him."

"The threadcrappers fight back."

"Yes."

Oh alright. For some reason I thought Apoc killed him.

Mathieson sure has an impressive track-record, but after all the "what does it mean?!" pics, I reckon the final product should be more reflective of that. Cinematography can help so much if the script is ultimately shallow.

I wouldn't really hold my breath for that. There have been very few B&W films in recent years, the most well-known and wide-spread being The Artist & Goodnight, And Good Luck. While something like that would've been a bold choice, it's evident they're taking a more action-y route, what with X-23 and all.

I would love if when the blu ray is released it comes with a B&W version that would be sick!

First lets see if the movie is even worth having a discussion about the appeal of B&W for a character like Wolverine.

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

Black and white is for old people

 

[jye4ever]

One big circle.

Fury Road B&W being released.
Who is the original Mad Max, Crazy Mel.
Who would make a perfectly grizzled Wolverine, Crazy Mel.
What character are fans asking to be made B&W, Wolverine.

Yeah really

 

[SNIKT1950]

This movie, without even a trailer released yet, already looks better than Doctor Strange.

Lolz. There it is

Didn't Tarantino put the Crazy 88 fight in B&W to avoid problems with the MPAA? Or am I imagining that?

If Wolverine goes full berserker rage it could be that level of bloodshed. Although I honestly didn't think there was that much objectionable gore in the 88 fight. Mostly just spurts of blood and a couple of gory inserts IIRC.
