No, we won’t review Wolverine.
By now, you all know that the upcoming action monster, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, has been leaked online in a DVD-quality workprint. We have received quite a few emails asking us to review the film. But this has to stop.
At this juncture, the only way to review the film is to download it illegally, and this is not what we stand for. We will ahppily review the film when we can watch it like everyone else in the theater, but refuse, outright, to be a part of the problem.
While online distribution is the way of the future, without a doubt, seeing this movie now, as Dark Horizons puts it is ” an act that cruelly robs thousands of people of not just months of hard effort, but their potential livelihood as well.” All the crew who took their time and effort to make the film only to have the movie posted early, pre-Chroma keying and special effects, is damaging the workforce we all want to be in.
Now, this wouldn’t be JunkFilm without our hatred boiled to a rolling steam… so fuck FOX. They are cock smokers. But this still doesn’t excuse the fact that this situation sucks. So, please, no more emails requesting us to review the movie, no one on our staff will review the film until we can see it in theaters… with all that added DeadPool loving.
