The Many Thumbs of Hugh Jackman

Through re-shoots, a high-profile Internet leak, a deadly swine-flu pandemic, and unfavorable reviews, Hugh Jackman’s X-Men Origins: Wolverine has had more bad luck than seemingly any would-be blockbuster in history — not that you’d ever know it from the wildly affirmative hand gestures he’s been flashing at all stage-managed publicity events this past month.
