When combined with Hollywood, which alters key facts that others would not imagine changing, the truth behind a certain story becomes extremely convoluted.Seannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1256572561784273920.post-50374095355015258072009-06-01T16:05:37.788-07:002009-06-01T16:05:37.788-07:00I noticed that even in the movie, Bullgrit--the on...I noticed that even in the movie, Bullgrit--the only other pair of siblings I recall being presented were sisters: one had diamond-hard skin and the other could influence people by touching them.Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12371944527312982978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1256572561784273920.post-26642552715676742062009-06-01T15:41:09.317-07:002009-06-01T15:41:09.317-07:00"and being Victor's half brother they have similar..."and being Victor's half brother they have similar genes, and thus similar mutant powers." <br /><br />Interestingly, they may be the only related mutants who have even remotely similar mutant powers.

The diseases and common problems which normally bring people to old age and death are combated by the healing factor thereby allowing them to live for an extremely long period of time.notlifebutmagnificenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03843923381344661183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1256572561784273920.post-53980442612471232202009-06-01T05:38:36.375-07:002009-06-01T05:38:36.375-07:00Yep, here's another one, Sean: What's up with the...Yep, here's another one, Sean: What's up with the mutant aging process?

His claws stemmed from the fact that it was one of his mutant powers, like his ability to heal, and being Victor's half brother they have similar genes, and thus similar mutant powers. Also, Hugh Jackman bulked up a lot for this movie, specifically the naked scene in the tub of water, if you notice he is at his biggest then. And he does look similar in a lot of his other movies, see xmen 3.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1256572561784273920.post-88053248305781668912009-05-31T22:41:13.979-07:002009-05-31T22:41:13.979-07:00Yes, that's all jackman.

As for his "origins", you clearly aren't familiar with the concept of a mutant. He was born with mutant healing and retractable claws (of bone), as well as some feral senses. Because of his advanced healing, he was able to withstand the fusion of Adamantium to his bones, giving him the telltale claws we all know and love.

He was one of them.<br /><br />As for his shoulders/biceps/etc. All of that was either him working out or special effects or something. Regardless, it wasn't implied in the "Origins" part of the title that it would be detailing how Hugh Jackman, the actor who plays Wolverine, got built.<br /><br />Any more questions?notlifebutmagnificenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03843923381344661183noreply@blogger.com
