    You know, after seeing his face on the "P.S.: I love you" poster, and knowing what he's capable of after watching Attila, I could see that. Really.

    Siure can't be any worse than what Tyler Mane pulled off!

    Great actor, not Sabertooth.
    Taylor Mayne did fine, because he's very large. These are the ONLY requirements for this character: Big dude, little dialogue, hair extensions. Bet thier gonna try to make him all deep and layered. Emo Sabertooth.
    It's not your fault, it's mine, because I forgot you are stupid.

    yeah umh isn't sabertooth supposed to tower over lil wolverine, with the dude from 300 they'll be almost the same height. and in real life Jackman is just a wee taller than Butler (1/2in to be exact). lol

    so since Jackman is 6'2" 1/2 Sabertooth needs to be at least 7feet, so bring in that giant dude Dalip Singh from The Longest Yard.

    From that one wrestler to this guy? I just don't see it. I think hes a competent actor but its just not working. Plus wasn't Professor X blown up into dust? I guess this takes place before X-Men 3.

    Wolverine: Creeeed! Why are you in the professor's private bathroom? What are the hell are you doing, cutting yourself with your own claws?
    Sabretooth: Shuttup man, life hasn't been easy for me. It takes the pain away ok.
    Wolverine:Cutting your arms takes the pain away?
    Sabretooth: Yeah okay? My dad hated me, and my mom never hugged me. It hurts.
    Wolverine: Rigggght.
    Sabretooth: Just leave me alone man! Jeezus can't a guy just listen to My Chemical Romance in the bathroom in peace, and heal some pain man?
    Wolverine: Suuure whatever you just said.
    Sabretooth: Are you mocking my pain! I'll kill you!
    Wolverine: Uhhhh riiight I'm gonna go now. Good luck with all that.

    Man, you're out of it, haha. Yes, the Wolverine movie is called X-Men Origins: Wolverine, it takes place before X-Men 1. Oh, and Xavier ain't dead, someone didn't watch the secret ending after the credits in X3.

    Actually I did watch the secret ending with Professor X but it doesn't mean its going to look like Patrick Stewart. He is the Professor X in my mind. So this story takes place before everything then? Thats cool but its not going to make sense to me since it seems Logan and Professor X meet for the first time in X-Men 1. And Sabertooth gains like 100 more pounds of muscle
