Wolverine vs. The Pigs: Swine Flu Claims Another Victim!

Filed under: Film Flickers > Hugh Jackman

wenn2323125swine.jpg

The swine flu has to go and ruin everything, now doesn't it???

Wednesday's Mexico City premiere of X-Men Origins: Wolverine has been postponed due to the deadly virus!

"We were not only concerned about Hugh's welfare - and we would never send anyone into harm's way - but we also have an enormous office filled with people we care about. There was no point in proceeding under the current conditions," said studio reps for Twentieth Century Fox.

Mexican government officials have instructed the population to remain indoors and not to venture out into public venues, including movie theaters.

There are talks of rescheduling the premiere once the virus subsides because of Hugh Jackman's large fan base in Mexico, but nothing has been set in stone.

Bummer!

    Porkez, I know that Mexico has a swine flu problem, but to doodle pigface on Hugh Jackman is a sacrilege!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Down here in Texas, it's spreading like wildfire…I know in San Antonio they closed all the schools and told parents not to let their kids mingle……supposedly it's spreading really fast through children…..

    Well, with 90 people reported dead in Mexico of swine flu, it's not a very good idea for hundreds of people to be crammed into crowded movie theater sitting next to each other and sneezing and breathing on each other. Swine flu is AIRBORNE.
    And Perez, I love Hugh Jackman, and that pig head on gorgeous Hugh is not funny.

    its just so stupid that u believe that we dont have ANYTHING.for your information… we have al kind of stuff over here!! and we dont ride cows or whatever. its insulting when ppl ask stuff like that. yes, we have cars, tvs, ipods, laptops, BATHTOOMS!! (yeah someone really stupid asked me once if we had bathrooms here in mexico….), please inform yourself about the situation before saying shit about mexico.
    everyone who hears mexico and thinks about tacos and tequila is so wronggggggg. there is much more than that.!

    It only seems to be a deadly virus in Mexico. In the states, it's a mild flu. Swine flu is nothing new, it was around in the mid 70's. There is a vaccination for it.



  31. 31

    Oh my god. That's the scariest shit I've ever seen. Wolverine with a pig face and tail. I lol'd.



  32. 32

    Scary stuff…why not close the border?



  33. 33

    Re: Ultraworld – well actually, its not deadly here in mexico, its totally curable, you just need to go to the doctor and take specific medicine, government has a lot of that medicine, so its supposed to be under control. clases have been cancelled just to avoid passing it on.



  34. 34

    Re: Ultraworld – oh yeah, and there's no vaccine for it, since its a new virus, its a mutation of 3 different virus: human, swine and avian, so vaccines for normal influenza dont work for this kind of virus

    Re: silly billie – the world hates you

    Re: drew4love – ur so right, im with u, how wouldnt i of im in the middle of everything haha



  37. 37

    Re: Jimmy Choo – actually it isnt, its transmited by direct contact, but they are doing all this so people dont have any direct contact, you know how us mexicans kiss on the cheek and hug all the time, so its only precautionary measures



  38. 38

    Re: SMELLS LIKE FISH – food has nothing to do with this, you can actually eat pork, its a virus that is transmited by direct contact, human to human
