Yes, because I'm right. it was "at least somewhat true to the original look" because the claws are in his hands, not popping out of his butt. Film makers ADAPT the property. Stuff on the 2D comics page does NOT translate to a 3 dimensional live-action set well. It has to work for ALL AUDIENCES, not just wanker-fanboys. In the comics, batman runs around in a leotard with black underoos on top, punching people... movies he wears kevlar armor. In the Transformers cartoon, several characters turn from 50ft tall robots to handheld objects ... in the movie, there is no mass-displacement.

Anyhoo, 90% of people have no problem with the way hollywood has treated the comics-to-film. 15 to 20 years ago, the best we could get was "Batman & Robin". Those few "hardcore" geeks out there who are still pissy, well, just keep reading your comics, or watch the cartoons. Nothing will honestly satisfy you anyway, so why should Hollywood even bother? Hugh Jackman as Wolverine was PERFECT. Sadly, that perfection came at the expense of developing the other X-Men characters, particularly Cyclops.
