Vengeance and ire continue to flood Hollywood in the wake of the leaked WOLVERINE workprint. Fox has called in the FBI to help investigate the case; meanwhile, Australian effects house Rising Sun denies they are the leak source, although their name appears a few minutes into the print. Meanwhile, director Gavin Hood has been on a PR tour downplaying his own on set rows with studio head Tom Rothman.

Really, though, if they’re concerned about piracy sinking the movie’s opening weekend, they shouldn’t be — anyone with eyes can tell you that the leaked version is unfinished, with missing scenes, placeholder music, and tons of hilarious half-rendered special effects.

I’m sure it will look better but that’s not going to fix the problems with the script, the complete lack of chemistry between the actors etc etc etc..
So the Wolverine leak wasn’t an April Fool’s joke but the Casanova webcomic was?
Weird world.
The unfinished special effects are actually really cool… and not why the movie is terrible. Still, I’ll pay to go see it, just to be fair.
