Dominic Monaghan to Play Blackwing in Wolverine

Source:  JustJared
Movie PictureOne more mutant is posed to join the cast of Fox's X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Blogger JustJared has learned that Dominic Monaghan (Lost) has been cast as Barnell Bohusk, also known as the mutant Blackwing.

In the comics, Blackwing was originally a mutant known as Beak who had the ability to transform into a humanoid bird, with a beaked face, bulbous eyes, wing-like arms, double-jointed knees and talons on his hands. In his transformed state, he also possessed heightened senses and enhanced agility.

Monaghan joins a cast that includes Hugh Jackman (Wolverine), Liev Schreiber (Sabretooth), Ryan Reynolds (Deadpool), Taylor Kitsch (Gambit), will.i.am (Wraith), Danny Huston (William Stryker), and Lynn Collins (Silver Fox). X-Men Origins: Wolverine slashes its way into theaters on May 1, 2009.

Holy smurf, Joker...I'm pissin my pants, Dammit! Speaking in the language of Golum, it's HOBBITSES.

But the truth is, Perry opposed the Maui Wowy, and forced the others into the Paul Rubens theater. At that time, Gandalf rescued them and brought them all to the end of Return of the King, which was the most fruity scene I've ever seen (Froto in bed, with all the Hobbitses jumping on him).

All in all, Froto and Gandalf realize that "a friend with weed is a friend indeed" and leave the shire on the ship, toward the journey of the magic carpet ride. After hitting Taco Bell and Suzie's (Chicago), they encounter Logan, who is buying cheesy fries.

Oh my God! I almost spat out a mouthful of my lunch (it's lunch time in the land of Oz), Joker.
Your a funny guy, hence your name. Also I took the day of work today, sick. You cheered me up dude thanks.
Now that I want to see in the film, no and's, if's or but's about it.

The casting of "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" spells disaster!!!

....then suddenly, to the hobbits' surprise, Bilbo bursts through the front door holding a big sac of hobbit-weed specially grown by the elves in Rivendell! Logan slices the sac open with one swipe & helps break up the hobbit-weed with his adamantium claws.... and they all smoke happily ever after.

February 21st, 2008 4:24pm
hey, that was me actually, lol.... bout' the SP3 villain overload....geez I should have never brought up hobbits, lol.

February 21st, 2008 4:04pm
This whole thread is hilarious...

But back to business: I really hope they concentrate more on Logan's origin than on trying to fit as many hobbitses, I mean, mutants, on the screen as possible.

I know someone else mentioned this elsewhere, but I agree; Spiderman III is a perfect example of how too many villains can ruin a good story.

That said; as AndrewRyan mentioned below, if they introduce them in a good way, and they don't throw them at you in a desperate manner (such as when Logan visits the Shire and they're all in Bilbo's abandoned home playing Texas Hold'em) we may be OK.

Just my humble opinion.

Cheers

As much as I like Dominic, this is just adding to the clusterfuck of wasted potential that will be the Wolverine movie.
