McQuarrie to write Wolverine sequel
X-Men Origins: Wolverine has got to be one of the biggest disappointments this year. I wanted to slot in Transformers and G.I. Joe but since my expectations for both movies not so high as what I had for Wolverine, they don’t seem to quite cut it as disappointments.
