[[caption-width-right:350:''Curve'' the tropes.]]

->''"This is the role Creator/AngelinaJolie was born to play. She emerged from the womb already covered in tattoos and eyeliner for the express purpose of playing this character, who immediately entered my pantheon of Chicks I Want to Be Like When I Grow Up. Fox is the reason Angelina Jolie was put on this earth."''
-->-- '''Creator/CleolindaJones''', ''[[http://community.livejournal.com/m15m/18784.html Wanted in 15 Minutes]]''

''Wanted'' is a 2008 action thriller directed by Timur Bekmambetov. It is very loosely based on, or [[InNameOnly at least named after]], a [[ComicBook/{{Wanted}} comic-book miniseries]] by Creator/MarkMillar, with very different characters, themes, and setting.

Meet Wesley Gibson (Creator/JamesMcAvoy). His father abandoned him when he was a week old, and things have gone steadily downhill since. He works for a disgusting boss at a job he hates before going home to a girlfriend who's sleeping with his best friend Barry (Creator/ChrisPratt). But suddenly, Wesley is tapped by Fox (Creator/AngelinaJolie) to join The Fraternity, a league of elite international assassins. He is trained specifically to kill Cross (the rogue Fraternity member who killed his father), mostly by [[TrainingFromHell getting the shit kicked out of him]] by the rest of the team.

Wes [[TrainingMontage learns]] many plot-relevant skills, including the pretty sweet ability to ''[[RuleOfCool bend bullets]]''. No, they don't really explain how, and no, [[MST3KMantra they don't really need to]]. He uses these abilities to take down several nefarious do-badders, until it's finally time to confront Cross. Cue the giant showdown on a moving train... and on a crashing train... and on a falling train. But hey, at least Wesley finally gets his man -- [[YourPrincessIsInAnotherCastle or does he]]?

Of course he doesn't. He just runs headlong into TheReveal, which sets up the ''real'' finale. A sequel for the movie is currently in DevelopmentHell.

There is a game, ''[[VideoGame/WantedWeaponsOfFate Weapons of Fate]],'' that draws plot elements from both the comic book and the film (most notably, Wesley in his original costume and the Russian assassin that serves as a PlotPoint in the movie). The game starts shortly after the movie ends, and is notable both for being a sequel instead of a recreation, and for taking a year after the movie's release for development with the explicit goal of ''not'' falling into the "rushed product to match the movie's release date and hype" trap. Naturally, [[BrokenBase opinions vary on the success]].
----
!!The ''Wanted'' movie and game provides examples of the following tropes:

* AbnormalAmmo: Wesley kills [[spoiler:The Butcher]] by shooting a butcher's steel that jammed into his gun [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice into him.]]
* ActionSurvivor: Wesley at first, before he TookALevelInBadass.
* AdaptationalHeroism: The Fraternity in the film adaptation are much ''less'' villainous than the Fraternity in the original comic book. They weren't merely corrupt assassins, they were ''supervillains'' who engaged in murder and rape on a regular basis (Fox, for example, introduces herself to Wesley by killing a room full of innocent bystanders). Even Wesley himself didn't shy away from engaging in these atrocities either.
* ArchaicWeaponForAnAdvancedAge: The film is set in the late 2000s, but some of the weapons used by the Fraternity members are heavily modified flintlocks, wheellocks, muskets, or [[https://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Wanted#Remington_Rolling_Block_1871_Cavalry_.28mock-up.29 breech-loading pistols]].
* AdrenalineMakeover: A rare male, delayed action case in Wesley. He meets Fox, then goes back to his own mundane life. But one snarky remark too many from his boss sets the makeover in motion.
* ArtificialIntelligence: Inverted. The equivalent of [[spoiler:The Machine in ''Person of Interest'']] is an ancient loom.
* ArtisticLicencePhysics:
** The main principle behind Curved Bullets is an assassin using SuperSenses to fire while flinging the arm so fast, it produces a Curveball effect even in closed space. Assuming this works by Magnus Effect and Spin Drift, which does cause long-range sniper shots deviate from the path, slightly, for close-range it would either require great wind on its path or a force in the pistol to produce a spin so strong it would evaporate any known material.
** Even if Fox's modified Safari Arms Matchmaster 1911 and bullets are MadeOfIndestructium, bullets for the most of the film bend their trajectory, but don't rotate. To be able to perform a circular movement like in the climax, a bullet would require something constantly pushing it horizontally, midair.
* AncientTradition: The Fraternity, an ancient order of assassins that Sloan says was started nearly 2,000 years ago.
* AntiHero: Wesley is mostly a VillainProtagonist, and doesn't really benefit from SympatheticPOV. He does, however, qualify for NominalHero.
* AlternativeForeignThemeSong: The Japanese version uses the song "DAIGO" by Breakerz as its [[http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6qs41_breakerz-yy_music ending theme]].
** The Russian release had [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7lLGQp8Hsc a part-Russian, part-English version]] of "The Little Things". It also included a song called "Opasen, no svoboden" by the band Delta, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrXAh524zFU with music video]] based on the film's viral marketing campaign.
* ApologizesALot: Wesley. {{Lampshaded}}, and later {{Subverted}}.
-->'''Fox:''' ''You apologize too much.''\\
'''Wesley:''' ''I'm sorry about that too.''
* BecauseDestinySaysSo: Played straight, subverted, then [[DoubleSubversion played straight]]. [[spoiler: The Loom of Fate does really have names within it that belong to people that are supposed to die, but Wesley finds out that Sloan has been making fake kill orders to benefit himself and that he had been hiding kill orders for himself and other members of the Fraternity. After Sloan reveals his corruption near the end of the movie, Fox fulfills all those kill orders (saved for Sloan), including the one for herself]].
* BetterLivingThroughEvil: Wesley does this even though he is unaware that the guy he is working for is evil.
* BigDamnKiss: Fox kisses Wesley dramatically in Wesley's old apartment when [[spoiler:he goes to retrieve his father's pistol]]. Bonus points for showing up his former girlfriend in the process.
* BigShutUp: When Wesley snaps at Janice after pushing him over the edge: '''"SHUT THE FUCK UP!"'''
* BittersweetEnding: Sure, [[spoiler: Sloan and everyone else who manipulated Wesley is dead, but he killed his own father, lost the love interest, and is wanted, unemployable, and once again broke. Though, he seems to have inherited his father’s contacts and resources, so there’s that.]]
* BizarreAndImprobableBallistics: If the phrase "bullet curving" doesn't say it all, what would? (The TV series ''Series/{{Mythbusters}}'' attempted to replicate it and concluded it was impossible.)
* BloodFromTheMouth: [[spoiler:The Russian bombmaker]] when he is dying. Fox also gets blood in her mouth after trying to give him CPR.
* BookEnds: [[spoiler:Using a decoy to get the target onto an "X" marked on the floor and [[BoomHeadshot sniping]] them from an incredibly long distance. The sniper even shoots from the same building.]]
* BreakingTheFourthWall: [[spoiler: The very end of the movie has Wesley asking the audience, "What the fuck have you done lately?"]]
* BulletTime: Used frequently, especially when showing bullet curving.
* TheBully: Wesley's boss is loud, overbearing, condescending, cusses at Wesley and verbally abuses him, and snaps her stapler in his ear. During Wesley's TheReasonYouSuckSpeech, he reveals that she is this way to her entire staff.
* TheButcher: One of the Fraternity agents has this as his codename (Pussy, pussy!).
* CarChaseShootOut: Proceeding Cross attacking Wesley and Fox (who was sent to protect Wesley) in a grocery store, Fox escorts Wesley away using a sports car while Cross steals a delivery truck culminating in a car chase. It doesn't become a shoot out until halfway through when Cross starts using his pistol, to which Fox takes out her own pistol and a shotgun to return fire.
* CarFu:
** Fox [[spoiler:boards a moving train]] from the side via car.
** Wesley is assisted by Fox [[spoiler:in flipping of his car to somersault over that of an open-topped limousine that was bulletproof on the sides in order to shoot through the open sunroof]].
* ChekhovsGun
** [[spoiler:The exploding rats. Possibly a ShoutOut to ''Anime/NinjaScroll'', considering the same trick is used to down a villain in that movie.]]
** [[spoiler:The sniper rifle]] from the beginning of the movie.
** The El train.
%%* ClickHello
%%* ClusterFBomb
* ConservationOfNinjutsu
** Even more obvious in ''Weapons of Fate,'' where the enemies, ostensibly members of the French Fraternity, don't seem to know how to curve bullets unless it's one or two EliteMooks in a quicktime event. It's more glaring than in the movie, as the player will be doing it themselves for the entire game.
* ContractOnTheHitman: At first it's [[spoiler:Fox's]] assignment to kill [[spoiler:Wesley]]. It's then revealed that [[spoiler:everyone in the Fraternity had a order against them, including Sloan]].
* CorruptPolitician: At least one target.
* ConcealmentEqualsCover: During the grocery store shootout, Fox and Wesley hide behind a grocery store shelf full of cereal while Fox trades gunfire with Cross. [[spoiler: Of course, In this case, Concealment was more than enough, as Cross did not want to risk shooting his own son.]]
%%* DarkActionGirl: Fox.
%%* DareToBeBadass: Pretty much the message of the movie.
* DeadpanSnarker: Wesley does this a lot in ''Weapons of Fate,'' and it's often CasualDangerDialogue as well.
%%* DisSimile
* DontThinkFeel: When Sloan teaches Wesley how to curve bullets.
-->'''Sloan''': If no one told you that bullets flew straight, and I gave you a gun and told you to hit the target, what would you do? Let your instincts guide you.
* EmasculatedCuckold: The beginning has the protagonist Wesley in a relationship with a girlfriend who is blatantly cheating on him with his best friend, and him being powerless to do anything about it. [[SympatheticAdulterer He]] later makes out in front of her with his ''new'' girlfriend.
* ExpectingSomeoneTaller: Sloan to Wesley when they first meet.
* {{Fanservice}}:
** Fox is woken up by the Exterminator exploding a rat and [[SexySurfacingShot gets out of the bath]] nude and [[ToplessnessFromTheBack topless from the back]], her tattoos on display.
** The sex scenes where the protagonist's "girlfriend" is cheating on him with his "best friend".
** Wesley appears shirtless, dripping wet, and wearing a leather jacket at one point.
* FailedASpotCheck: Note to self: check the floor for big X's.
* GoodAllAlong: [[spoiler: Cross. Turns out that his killing of other Fraternity members was to get rid of Sloan's corruption and his attempts to capture Wesley was to try to prevent his son from becoming Sloan's pawn.]]
* GoodIsNotSoft: Fox's general attitude. She believes that killing people is a necessary evil to protect others, that the death of one may save many more.
* GunKata: And Knife Kata. To give you an idea of the impossible feats performed in the movie...Wesley is first asked to ''[[ImpossibleTask shoot the wings off a couple of flies]]''. [[spoiler: And does]].
* HealingFactor: [[InvokedTrope Induced by]] the recovery pools that seal you in with candle wax.
* HitmanWithAHeart: Wesley Gibson tries to be a good guy. He is reluctant to kill someone just because a machine printing out a piece of cloth says so. He wants to be sure they are really bad people before offing them, but Fox convinces him to stay the course by saying that her father was murdered because a Fraternity member failed to kill the man. Subverted in [[ComicBook/{{Wanted}} the original comic]]: Wesley is a Supervillain who happily rapes and slaughters because as a Supervillain he has the authority to get away with anything he does.
* InNameOnly: The movie takes out almost all of the [[ComicBook/{{Wanted}} the original comic's]] story and background, dropping the source material's costumed supervillain trappings in favour of a more grounded (although still ''heavily'' stylised) approach. The premise in its most broad strokes stays the same: the main character is a cuckolded loser who is brought into a WorldOfBadass by a love interest due to his long-lost and supposedly deceased father. Beyond that, the story and setting are completely different.
* IronicEcho:
** "I'm sorry!"
** "I'm the man!"/"He's the man"
* ImprobableAimingSkills: Played straight with the crazy sniping and bullet curving nonsense. The film's BookEnds [[spoiler:involve Cross (at the start) and Wesley (at the end) making a successful head shot with a sniper rifle from what is implied to be an insane distance, even by long-ranger sniper standards]].
* ItsASmallNetAfterAll: apparently no pages on the in-film Internet contain either the words "Wesley" or "Gibson". It's possible this is one of Wesley's self-deprecating daydreams, like when he imagines the ATM is telling him he's a loser. Also, if you do a search for the name "Wesley Gibson" the only pages that show are those related to the movie or appeared after its release.
* LikeADuckTakesToWater: Wesley Gibson. Pathetic cubicle rat = badass assassin. His "panic attacks" make him look like an absolute loser - when someone starts bullying him, he ''appears'' to just blow apart at the seams. Turns out that they're actually the the untrained expression of a rare superhuman ability; when stressed, the drastically increased heart rate and adrenaline levels result in BulletTime - bursts of superhuman strength, speed, and reflexes.
* LoserProtagonist: Wesley begins the movie as a man dissastisfied with his life, working a dead-end desk job under a verbally abusive boss and having a cheating girlfriend and "piece-of-shit" bestfriend. After being inducted into the Fraternity, he undergoes an adrenaline makeover into a badass assassin, and regains control over his life.
* ThisLoserIsYou: Essentially the theme of the film.
** "This is me taking back control of my life. What the fuck have you done lately?"
* LostInImitation: The movie more closely resembles ''Film/TheMatrix'' than the source material. Which is unsurprising when you consider how hard it would be to adapt the source material into a movie without it being declared unwatchable.
* LukeIAmYourFather: [[spoiler:Cross to Wesley.]]
* MaddenIntoMisanthropy: Wesley at the beginning of the film goes through life depressed like a zombie, bored and depressed because of a shitty life which consists of: a nagging, cheating live-in girlfriend, a scummy “best friend”, who is fucking his girlfriend and later mooches off of him after he dropped his wallet in Wesley’s apartment, a mean boss who harasses him at work and gives him panic attacks by yelling and snapping her stapler at his head, and being perpetually broke.
%%* TheMovie
* MundaneMadeAwesome: Fox and Wesley kissing, to keep on mundane things.
* OhCrap:
** The ending of the movie. Last words spoken by [[spoiler:Sloan]]: "Oh, fuck." ''* splat* ''
** One of the thugs shooting at Mr. X has a moment after Mr. X completes his jump between the buildings. He knows he's about to get his brains blown out of his face before it even happens.
* OurAncestorsAreSuperheroes: Wesley is unknowingly descended from a secret society of assassins dating back centuries with innate superhuman powers. An example of Type 2.
* OohMeAccentsSlipping: James [=McAvoy=] does an amazing job with his American accent...except in one scene after Wesley first tries (and fails) to catch the shuttle and tries to say ScrewThisImOuttaHere. Sloan tells him that he'll be ready when Fox says he's ready. When Wesley asks who put her in charge, you can hear a bit of James's Scottish accent slip through.
* PointyHairedBoss: Janice abuses, intimidates, and belittles her staff so she feels better about herself.
* PragmaticAdaptation: Put simply, a faithful adaptation of the original comic would need to either be unrated or be bowdlerized within an inch of its life. This version takes what it likes from the comic and leaves the rest.
* PrecisionFStrike:
** [[spoiler: Sloan]] memorably combines it with an OhCrap moment for the linked trope's page quote.
** "Shoot ''this'' motherfucker..." (you'd never expect Morgan Freeman to say this)
** '''"SHUT THE FUCK UP!!"'''
** A ''visual'' one concludes the scene in which Wesley walks out of his job, involving a keyboard and a broken tooth.
* PrettyLittleHeadshots: Particularly in the finale, but averts the "minor bleeding" considering the bullet holes bleed copiously.
* RaceLift:
** In the comic, Fox was modeled upon Halle Berry. In the film, she's portrayed by Angelina Jolie.
** Janice, Wesley's MeanBoss, got the exact same lift. They even changed the narration from "African-American" to "anorexic" to accommodate this...a nice bit of sarcastic irony since she's obese.
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: Angelina Jolie's noted collection of tattoos, particularly on her back, is incorporated into the character of Fox (and adjusted accordingly). To date this is the only movie where her tattoos have been embraced as opposed to being covered up in some way.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Wesley gives an absolutely ''epic'' one to his MeanBoss just before he quits, and to top it off slugs his former best friend in the face with a keyboard on his way out. Made even more awesome by the fact that several keys and one of the guy's teeth break off for a visual PrecisionFStrike. He gives another one to [[spoiler: Sloan, after he reveals that he’s corrupt to the surviving members of his rampage upon the Fraternity]].
* RedemptionEqualsDeath: [[spoiler:Fox follows the code]]. (A variation since [[spoiler:she was just serving an evil man, not evil herself]] -- the same moment contains shades of HeroicSacrifice and DrivenToSuicide.)
** Although, WhatYouAreInTheDark may trump this. [[spoiler:Since Fox had explained that she serves [[BecauseDestinySaysSo the loom]], her choice was to kill everyone Sloan just said the loom named as a target, ''including'' herself. If you never went evil, you can't be redeemed, and she had the chance. She just didn't take it.]]
* RoadBlock: The Chicago police create one during the car chase between Fox and Cross, which fails because Fox flips the Dodge Viper she’s been driving over the barricade and lands it on a bus. It doesn’t even stop Cross's stolen van, as it had already been abandoned and ended ups rolling then stopping in front of the barricade.
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Basically the last twenty minutes of the film.
* RuleOfCool: Pretty much the whole freaking thing. It basically [[RefugeInAudacity takes refuge in audacity]].
* SayMyName: Wesley shouts Sloan's name not once, not twice, but [[RuleOfThree ''three full times'']] near the climax of the movie.
* ScrewDestiny: If this film has any message, it’s this.
* SelfMadeOrphan: [[spoiler:Wesley unknowingly became one of these, killing his DisappearedDad because the Fraternity used him as an UnwittingPawn -- the one person the rogue assassin who was decimating their ranks would never kill. Naturally, he was told that he was hunting [[YouKilledMyFather the man who killed his father]], instead.]]
* ShirtlessScene: The scene where [[spoiler:Wesley finds out his father's real whereabouts and his saferoom]].
* ShoutOut:
** ''Film/TopGun'' gets one when Wesley asks if Fox is a callsign, like Maverick.
** Of course, the whole thing could practically be a ''Franchise/TheMatrix'' ShoutOut.
** All names that come up for assassinations are encoded on quilts, just like how Madame Defarge from ''Literature/ATaleOfTwoCities'' knitted codes on her quilt for [[LaResistance her fellow revolutionaries]] so they would know which of the French nobility was to be executed.
* ShootTheBullet: Combined with a BulletTime and a close-up of the bullets colliding, it makes up some of the [[RuleOfCool awesome moments]] of both the film and the game.
* ShootTheDog: Actually invoked with Fox almost going to get a puppy when Wesley wouldn't shoot the corpse of an old woman.
* SinkOrSwimMentor: Multiple. More like "Swim or get the dogshit beaten out of you".
** Wesley is this to the ''player'' in ''Weapons of Fate.''
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: The sociopathic female [[ActionGirl killer-for-hire]] Fox (played by Creator/AngelinaJolie) is the ''only'' female member of an ancient fraternity of assassins, and (what else did you expect) the top-ranking member.
* SoulCrushingDeskJob: Wesley's life was a crappy one with this crappy job and a boss who was a total bitch, and whose coworker and best friend is cheating with his girlfriend. That was before his life was turned upside down when he joins an elite international assassins group.
* StormingTheCastle: The film's entire final act is Wesley doing this to [[spoiler:the Fraternity]].
* SwarmOfRats: Weaponized in the final shootout, when [[spoiler:Wesley, using hundreds and hundreds of rats he lured into a dump truck via peanut butter, crashes his vehicle into the Fraternity's headquarters and releasing the rats. And then shooting everyone in the chaos]].
* TakeMyHand: [[spoiler:Wesley's father to Wesley]]... and then [[spoiler:Wesley shoots him, triggering another train collapse.]]
* TakeThisJobAndShoveIt: See TheReasonYouSuckSpeech above.
* TeethFlying: When the main character snaps, quits his job and smacks his backstabbing "best friend" on the way out with his keyboard, we're treated to a BulletTime shot of a series of broken keys spelling out "FUCK YO" with his bloody tooth forming the final "U".
* ThemeMusicPowerUp: The moment you hear the EpicRiff from "[[Music/DannyElfman The Little Things]]", either shit just went down, or it's about to.
* ThisLoserIsYou: "What the fuck have you done lately?"
* ThrowAwayGuns: Wesley, [[spoiler:during his major assault on the mill.]] [[JustifiedTrope Why waste time reloading your gun when you can take the guns from your dead enemies?]]
* TitleDrop: After the shootout in a grocery store and car chase, Wesley and Fox are now suspects. A newspaper shows security camera photos of them with '''WANTED''' as a big bold headline above them.
* TookALevelInBadass: The entire movie is basically this for Wesley.
* ToplessnessFromTheBack: Fox's back and bare ass is shown as she’s [[SexySurfacingShot coming out of the bath]], covered in elaborate tattoos.
* TrainingFromHell: Wesley goes through this, regularly getting beaten and cut up, tearing his hands up trying to catch a shuttle in an industrial loom, being forced to shoot at actual human corpses, and enduring verbal and emotional abuse.
* TrainingMontage: Used liberally as Wesley tries to make progress, and then begins doing so.
* TruthInTelevision: First off, no, it’s impossible to curve bullets.
** The exterminator says that rats go apeshit with peanut butter, which is true, as in real life, peanut butter is often used as a common rodent bait and it is said to work better than the classic wedge of cheese.
** At the end, Wesley creates rat bombs in order to [[spoiler: bomb and raid the Fraternity mill]], by mixing an explosive with peanut butter, luring rats to eat it, and then strapping detonators on to them. The explosive that he finds in [[spoiler: Cross’ apartment]] and then uses is called [[https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astrolite Astrolite G]]; the film correctly depicts the explosive as a clear, oily liquid, with the only things wrong was the color of the explosive (it's clear in real life) and that it's toxic, so the rats would've most likely died after ingesting the Astrolite/peanut-butter mixture.
* UnknownRelative: Wesley doesn't realize that [[spoiler:Cross is his father]] until after he kills him. This is foreshadowed by the fact that [[spoiler:Cross seems bent on killing everyone ''but'' Wesley]].
* UsedToBeASweetKid: Fox wouldn't be who she was today, had her father not been burned alive in front of her when she was young.
* VerbedTitle: “Want''ed''”.
* VillainsNeverLie: When [[spoiler:Sloan]] tells the Fraternity that [[spoiler:the Loom of Fate chose each of them to die]], they believe him even though [[spoiler:Wesley just told them that Sloan has been manipulating the Loom for his own purposes]]. Justified; the villain is legitimately in the more trustworthy position. Who would you be more likely to believe, [[spoiler:the boss who you've got no actual reason to distrust, or the guy who just shot up half your fortress and killed dozens of your friends, after blowing up the other half?]]
** It's also totally {{Justified|Trope}} in that all of [[spoiler:the members in the room had been doing Sloan's bidding unwittingly...meaning they had been killing innocent people that the loom hadn't chosen. Of course the Loom would pick them out then.]]
* VillainProtagonist: In the comic, Wesley may come across as a funny, snarky everyman that you'd like to grab a beer with, but ''boy'', does ''that'' change fast. In the film, he’s more noble, as he has reservations against hurting innocent people and some of the other fucked up things at the Fraternity does, like using real human corpses as targets, but he’s still a NomialHero in the sense that he’s completely motivated by his own desire for revenge and escape from his boring, unfulfilling life, but fighting against [[spoiler: corrupt, self-righteous assassins who manipulated him into killing his own father, who was trying to stop them and prevent Wesley from going down a dark path]].
* WeaponizedAnimal: The Exterminator makes bombs which he straps to the backs of rats.
* WhamLine: ''This is not me following in my father's footsteps. This is not me saving the world. This is not me... [[spoiler:This is just the mother-fucking decoy!'']]
* WhenYouSnatchThePebble: One of Wesley's training tasks is to snatch the shuttle out of an industrial loom.
* WilliamTelling: Fox and Sloane are trying to get Wesley to "bend bullets," cause a bullet's trajectory to curve around an object to hit something that would normally be hidden. After Wesley fails a couple of times, Fox places herself in-between him and the target since she knows that Wesley likes her. This time, he succeeds, grazing her hair with the bullet.
* WolverinePublicity: Despite receiving first billing, Creator/JamesMcAvoy is considerably smaller than Creator/AngelinaJolie on the poster (see the image at the top of this page) and the standard DVD cover (which used the same picture), but he's treated more fairly on the [[http://images4.static-bluray.com/movies/covers/837_front.jpg Blu-Ray artwork]].
* YouBastard: A lot more subtle than the comic book, but no any less epic. As detailed in BreakingTheFourthWall and ThisLoserIsYou, once Wesley finishes his closing narration, [[spoiler:he takes the opportunity to roast the audience by asking them "What the fuck have you done lately?" as the movie ends.]]
