You kind of get why so many are rebelling against Hollyweird. The irony is that Wolverine is supposed to be 5'3 in the comic books.

Someone actually, really a team had to come up with this script and scene and get multiple approvals.

Somehow, multiple groups and team leads decided to sign off on this.

A lot of guys are fans of this franchise.

Many guys grow up to be short guys.

Completely humiliating. 

Thanks for sharing. I won't be watching this movie.

Basically Marvel saying we won't ever get a short Wolverine.

It sucks that this is the kind of media programming that molds young minds into believing that shorter guys are some walking punch line.

Just imagine growing up thinking, "If I end up being short when I'm older, I'm someone who won't be taken seriously", "I won't be someone to respect", "I'll never be a hero to someone".

But then they'll tell you, "It's just a movie bro!". Screw Marvel!

You hit this right on the nail.

Imagine a short dad who was a marvel fan as a kid, bringing his elementary school aged son to watch this movie at the theater.

The son leaves thinking his dad is someone who it to be laughed up.

Messed up on so many levels. I know the politically, movies studios have been catching a lot of flack, but something like this makes me not want to watch another installment in this franchise or even think about it ever again.

I shared with someone that this scene was in there and they told me that "Wolverine's height shouldn't matter".

Yet, people who think this way are the first one to laugh at short men. 

Screw Marvel man. I was looking forward to seeing this film. I was a big fan, but not now.
