LOS ANGELES — "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" isn't due in theaters until next month, but the prequel has already hacked its way online. A high-quality, full-length work print of the 20th Century Fox film, which is set for release May 1, appeared online Tuesday. The film focuses on the beginnings of Hugh Jackman's clawed Marvel superhero Wolverine. Fox said in a statement Wednesday the version of the film posted online was not complete and vowed that the source would be prosecuted. It said the FBI is investigating. CNN LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- Someone stole an "incomplete and early version" of the next installment in the blockbuster "X-Men" movie series and posted it on the Internet this week, according to the studio that owns the billion-dollar film franchise. Twentieth Century Fox said the FBI was investigating who leaked "X-Men Origins: Wolverine," which is set for release in U.S. theaters May 1. The digital file quickly spread across the Internet and was available for free, but illegal, downloading from hundreds of easily found Web sites. "The source of the initial leak and any subsequent postings will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law; the courts have handed down significant criminal sentences for such acts in the past," the studio's statement said. Removing the pirated files from the Internet may prove an impossible challenge, an industry source said. This source did not want to be Source http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,512114,00.html http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/Movi...2/xmen.piracy/ Well i was waiting for the movie and if the movie fails there will be no sequel of it (x-men origins magneto) so i am bit disappointed. I don't usually watch movies in theater but i think i'll watch this when its out. |

I've seen it though, coz I couldn't resist...but I'll watch it again because the CG work's are incomplete and there are ropes all over the action scenes which really takes away the charm of watching the film...

I saw the movie.........Some of the animations suck(yet to be completed , i beleive). But the starting part of the film with sabertooth and wolverine is awesome.
I loved Leiv Schreiber(sabertooth) attack style.

I just saw the movie. Here is something from someone who has worked in Movie production (at least in India)....
DON'T WATCH THE LEAKED VERSION The movie lacks 90% of the special effects. Considering that this movie is releasing in May, I deduce that this is a work print which was under production in December atleast. This leak of movie kills all the joy of movie watching. No special effect, no voice editing, no loudness correction, no nothing..... Well, I am going to watch this movie first day first show I hope.

The movie is awesome... First ever an X Men movie comes close to the original novel. The Sabertooth charecter is for the first time is given real notice.
i was disappointed after X Men 1 than strong charecters like Sabertooth hasnt given enuf notice or even they dun have a real character but in real it shud be the opposite.

I read that the leaked version still has actors with the cables attached to them. So if you're a budding special fx man or director watch it

^ not just a budding director or fx guy.... even the regular movie buffs should watch it..a lot of curious questions regarding how movies are made may get answered and not to mention the pain the fx guys go through to get this rough out of the box movie clip into a neat polished product...
