No, this is not an April Fool joke - even I thought so for about two minutes until I saw proof.

Early Tuesday US time a near DVD-quality workprint of "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" found its way onto the peer-to-peer torrenting networks - a full month before the film's release.

A film leaking online is nothing new, poor quality camcorded versions and/or only marginally better Telecine/Telesync transfers of most films usually hit the torrent networks within days of their US general release.

Proper DVD rips and screeners for festival titles and/or Oscar contenders have also been leaking with more and more vigor of late.

Yet outright workprint leaks are rare as they take place before public release of a film and so are often much easier to trace the source. Ang Lee's 2003 effort "Hulk", Eli Roth's "Hostel Part II" and Rob Zombie's "Halloween" reboot notably saw working prints of their films leaked a week or two before their theatrical releases.

The leak of "Wolverine" though, a full month before its cinematic release, has understandably sent shockwaves around Hollywood and the online community.

Even worse for the studio is the good quality of the transfer - what's shown is essentially complete and in near-DVD quality with only a few unfinished effects shots pointing to its 'work copy' status according to comments left by those who've seen it.

That's going to sting.. just a little.

So I've "overheard"..

Well i have to agree that A:9 and V:9 but the lack of special effects and after editing makes this a joke to look at. Yes it is a very early release and we are all greatful but it spoils the whole movie that you see an animated 3D figure rumble over the truck when wolverine gets hit by it or when zero does a backflip you can see the cords that he is attached to. Many thx to the poster and the release grp but wait until a later release or see it on the big screen

Please note that this release is a workprint, meaning obviously they are still twitting some bits here and there. You will see some unfinished work with effects or the scenery. They will be different from scenes from the original movie! Also this release is 14 minutes shorter! View at your risk

Awful for some.

Awesome for me.

Not bad.....and thats based entirely on everything but the FX.

It's between X2 and X3 in terms of how good it is. I can't see how 15 minutes is going to add anything to the story line, if only to flesh some of the mutants' stories out a bit more. Bit of a crappy ending as well, it's in need of a bigger build up and explanation (might be in the extra footage, but thats needed in other areas too)....they just expect you to go 'Oh yeah, that makes sense', when it obviously doesn't.

I've seen a few gifs of the released verson. lol

It is missing some computer animation here and there, and the editing is not complete. I can tell you the final shots though before the credits start rolling.

No spoilers here like that, but avert your eyes:

I don't care what anyone says. After Hugh Jackman's performance at the Oscars, I'm fucking pumped for this.

Public Enemies + Wolverine + Terminator: Salvation + Star Trek = Bliss.

Do you guys remember when The Phantom Menace was released? There was a leak before the theatrical release also. Everything was near DVD quality, the only thing was there was a small counter in the corner. It was an especially big deal because that was the first return of the series. Then we saw Jar Jar and wanted to kill Lucas.

I'm excited for it; if not for anything other than the fact I saw parts of it being filmed at my university (UBC).

Seeing the arts buildings pimped out into a base with tanks, APCs, barbed wire, walls, sandbags, and even a ghetto is pretty darned cool.

That was not a leak dude, that was a professional cam job.

No it was not.. it was before it came out... it had the same "had to be an inside job" stench. It was also a workprint.

Really ? from what i can remember, all the sFX were intact and had no watermarks. The timer was the only thing visible in order to sync it properly.

I think.

FBI called in over Wolverine leak
Wolverine
The film is not due to be released in the UK until 29 April

New tactics in film piracy battle

The FBI are investigating the online leak of an almost finished copy of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, a month before the film's cinema release.

The Hugh Jackman film was downloaded an estimated several 100,000 times from file sharing websites on Tuesday.

I bet somebody at Fox is shatting bricks.

Oh man that .gif of Wolverine as a kid cuts out the best part. When the kids rushing across the room, it looks like a "Puppet Master" take..

I watched a bit of it last night, cause I don't have 30 bucks to spend on a night at hte movies. I can tell you my girl isn't going to pay if I drag her to that. But it seemed real cheesy, like the old captian america/ first punisher movie

The FBI? What the fuck, I hate taht shit.. Listen it's a big deal this day and age because if movies get leaked people will know how big of a piece of shit they are, before they drop there 10 dollars... Hey Hollywood, if you made a decent movie people would watch the leak and really want to see the finished product.
