Wolverine Origins leaked!
FBI investigates into Wolverine leak

BEIJING, April. 3 (Xinhuanet) -- The FBI is investigating the online leak of a copy of X-Men Origins: Wolverine-- starring Australian actor Hugh Jackman-- which is due for release on May 1.

Rising Sun Pictures, an Australian visual effects company that worked on "X-Men Origins: Wolverine", appeared in a caption on March 2 a few minutes into the high-quality leaked copy of the 20th Century Fox superhero movie.

The company said Thursday it was not responsible for leaking a full-length work print online."As we worked on individual sequences within the film, neither Rising Sun Pictures or its staff members have ever been in possession of a full-length version, so it would have been impossible for the movie to have been leaked from here," Rising Sun Pictures chairman and co-founder Tony Clark said in a statement posted on the company's Web site Thursday.

20th Century Fox, the studio behind the film, said the print included temporary sound and music and was missing special effects and some scenes, while other scenes were unedited.

Because of forensic marks, the studio said it will be able to determine the source of the leak.

1. Whew I was afraid no one would bring these criminals to justice!
Can we somehow get the army involved? I dont think FBI is serious enough.

6. Meh. This is one of the very few movies that I will probably make
half an effort to actually see. I would rather go to the movies to see it proper.

9. It just won't be the same without Tyler Mane as Sabretooth
Schreiber, though a fine actor, can't hope to capture the dull sluggishness that Mane brought to the screen.

8. I'm betting that Warner Brothers is behind the leak
Getting back at Fox for the whole Watchmen debacle.
