Here's your trailer.
Apr 22 2009 Final 'Wolverine' Trailer: Your Last Chance to Debate Bone Claws
The plan to advertise Wolverine by attaching the superhero to a massive, cheese-smothered pizza isn't doing so well in promoting the film (though I assume it's doing great in promoting artery clogging), so Fox has released one last trailer to give the film a final push before its May 1 release. Seems a bit excessive after that two-hour trailer a couple weeks back, but here you go:

Mar 27 2009 'Taking Woodstock' Trailer with Demetri Martin
Imagine you agree to have a quiet little concert party behind your parents' motel. But then that little concert party quickly snowballs into a really big, awesome concert party! And the name of that concert party is WOODSTOCK! ORIGINAL WOODSTOCK, not those bullshit '90s Woodstocks. Now quiet your eager imagination, because this concept is already a movie directed by Ang Lee, and here is the trailer:

Mar 5 2009 Everything Happens in New 'Wolverine' Trailer
I lost track of the times in this trailer I thought, "That's going to happen too?" Wolverine fights in every war, meets half the mutants in the Marvel universe, jumps onto a moving helicopter--he's basically a feral Forrest Gump. Either this movie is going to be four hours long or half the story will be told in a montage set to CCR's "Fortunate Son".

Feb 18 2009 'Wolverine' Television Spot Number Three
Yahoo! Movies has posted the third and final X-Men Origins: Wolverine TV spot. This is the one that reminds you that Wolverine's origin somehow involves a maskless Deadpool, young Cyclops, Emma Frost turning into diamond, and the presence of Will.i.am. Enjoy.
(Oh, and thanks to Carter.)
Feb 17 2009 'Wolverine' on the Television, Part 2
Last night, Fox ran the second in its three-part series of Wolverine clips, and now a few hundred-thousand households are even more confused about 'That X-Man with the Claws.' "So he was born with bone claws, is brothers with the guy from Scream, and was in every U.S. battle since the Civil War? Which one was Professor X then?"
Feb 16 2009 'Wolverine' TV Spot Addresses Key Bone Claw Issues
The last Wolverine trailer sparked a huge controversy among people questioning if Wolverine originally had bone claws, those who answered he definitely did have bone claws, others who facetiously questioned if he had bone claws, and the angry people who didn't understand the sarcasm in the prior group's comments and felt they had to reassert that Wolverine did have bone claws. This new TV spot is either going to clear all that up or make the comments page go like this.

Jan 19 2009 A Somber Moment with the Cast of 'Wolverine'
I'll accept that someone has seen fit to simplify every superhero/villain costume in this universe down to either a sleeveless shirt or trenchcoat, but what is with this forced mournfulness? The best way to show a movie has the dark, brooding quality of The Dark Knight isn't necessarily to take a photo of the actors doing some kind of stilted group-brood.
Dec 15 2008 'Wolverine' Trailer: See Wolvering & Friends Do Everything Imaginable
Here's the trailer for the movie about that Wolverine character. Watching it has done nothing to lessen my reservations about this being something I'd watch more than once, but there's something I like about its unabashed fan pandering I find almost endearing.
Every comic fan of the '90s has wanted to see classically cool characters Gambit and Deadpool in live-action form, so it makes sense to shoehorn those guys into the plot, but the makers of Wolverine have gone so above and beyond that in terms of fulfilling every strange fan wish they could think of. Wolverine in a boxing match against The Blob, the padded gloves covering his primary weapons? Of course that happens. That was always the nucleus of the script. Wolverine launching off a motorcycle onto the back of a moving helicopter? That has been a fan request for so long, they just had to include it. And so much more:

Dec 2 2008 'Wolverine' Shall Have a Vast Toy Line
20th Century Fox (best Fox century) has released four new production photos from Wolverine. There aren't any new looks at Gambit, Blob, or Deadpool, who are all in the movie for some reason, but there are some new shots of Wolverine and Sabretooth that reveal that the film is going to produce so many action figures. What kid isn't going to want their mom to buy them a Normandy Wolvie with Post-Traumatic Flashback Projector (above)! Or...
Oct 10 2008 'Defiance' Trailer Defies You To Watch It! Or Whatever
Here's the new trailer for Defiance, where a Frankenstein-like James Bond, Liev Schreiber, and Billy Elliott save a group of Eastern European Jews by recreating the Battle of Endor:

Jul 28 2008 'Wolverine' Trailer from Comic Convention
While it lasts, here's a cell phone's interpretation of the Wolverine trailer. I haven't heard this many people screaming and cheering at mutton chops since Chester A. Arthur took the oath of office with his shirt off. Which I also have cell phone footage of.
(Thanks, Joshua.)

Mar 4 2008 Schreiber 'Nails' His Role as Sabretooth in 'Wolverine'
Seeing these first shots of Liev Schreiber as Sabretooth in Wolverine, I was at an utter and complete loss as to how I could possibly work an effective pun into the headline. Fortunately, Page Six was kind enough to supply the headline "Liev Nails His Role," cleverly drawing attention to the artificial nails he's wearing for the role while also highlighting his acting ability. I probably would have gone with something like "Get Ready For Your Next Shot, Liev--Looks Like You Already Took a Few!" or "Schreiber Shows His Acting Chops--Muttonchops, That Is!" and I would have sounded really stupid.

Jan 18 2008 'Defiance' Trailer, Starring James Bond
It's like Jakob the Liar, only without the hilarious antics of Robin Williams, and still with Liev Schreiber for some reason. Also, the construction of a primitive forest society may tempt you compare aspects to Return of the Jedi's forest moon of Endor, but you'll regret that once you realize how bad you feel having marginalized the Holocaust's victims to the same level as Ewoks.
