X-Men Origins - Wolverine

Apart from the entire SDCC 09 event being almost entirely devoted to Watchmen and Star Wars: Clone Wars one of the biggest things that happened (that I missed) seems to have been Hugh Jackman making an impromptu appearance during the FOX talk and presenting a never-before-seen trailer for the new highly anticipated X-Men Origins - Wolverine movie for 2009. As you might hear from the "increasingly rare" cam footage below the fans went nuts for it, especially when they they saw Gambit and Deadpool to name but a few characters from the film. I'll hold my judgement on this one for now as it could potentially all go wrong with some of the casting decisions (Liev Schreiber as Sabertooth?) and action sequences (exploding, crashing humvee throws Wolverine 40 feet onto an airborne helicopter?) but then again this could all go very right and we could all finally forget Brett Ratner's appauling X-men 3: Last Stand ruining the whole franchise. We'll see. Below is the cast and the two parts of the cam footage from SDCC 08. (Oh and by the way, Cyclops, or at least a young Scott Summers appears in this movie somewhere... I found that strange...)
