Deadpool Deadpool News and Discussion - Part 2

[antovolk]

Just to clarify - the full second (green and red band) trailer I'm told is not coming till later. It's not playing with SW. What is playing with SW, exclusively in IMAX, is a 30s teaser that's on Alberta. Should be fun....hopefully taking the piss out of SW

Well, they just said that the new trailer is coming on Christmas.

Christmas Day during the NBA games is a perfect way to get more people aware of this. Also I'm totally buying those pops.

 

[psylockolussus]

The trailer will probably be attached to The Revenant which gets a wide release a week after Christmas.

Genius! I love this marketing campaign.

P.S.: Is it just me or is the Deadpool forum kinda quiet and slow? I would've expected a little more hype on here, after all the waiting around and lenghty threads during the film's development (hell).

Bwahahaha

Yeah, the marketing has been dead on and never disappointed.

I agree JKR, expected there to be more talk especially with all the hits and social media popularity this has been getting. But then again, regardless of his major popularity boost this decade Deadpool has never been that popular with alot of SHH members. Modern comics in general don't seem to get too much love here. Unless there is a trailer hitting I don't think there will be much activity. Pretty much been us same Deadpool fans posting since the film was announced 5 years ago.

What's really crazy is that Deadpool #1 was the third top selling comic of Nov. Beating Star Wars, Avengers #1 and the Extrodanary X-Men #1 which is the new flagship X title. His like/dislike ratio on the trailer also looks to be killing Apocalypse. The red band has 480k likes and 11k dislikes. While Apocalypse has 170k likes and 9k dislikes. That's a pretty impressive youtube reaction.

Maybe. But I remember there being a bit more enthusiasm for a possible Deadpool movie. Now much of the talk has been how better Colossus and the X-Men suit looks VS the other X-Men movies, which is kinda annoying when you're actually looking forward to seeing this movie and would like to chat about it.

Anyway, you think the movie will still be set around Christmas, like the original script was?

 

[def28]

I think it might, there looks to be Christmas lights in the trailer when he has Nessa against the wall. But...[BLACKOUT]that could also just be part of that sex montage when time passes. [/BLACKOUT]

 

[-JKR-]

Looking forward to that part!

By the way, I'm thinking about abstaining from watching the trailer. I've read the script about five years ago, thinking that the movie would never get made. And the recent Batman V Superman kinda discouraged me from seeing multiple trailers for a single movie. I wouldn't want them to show the best scenes and moneyshots in the upcoming trailer. Even though I've read the script (don't remember too many details from it, though), seeing stuff is very different.

 

[def28]

Yeah, that's what I've been doing with Star Wars. I don't think I'll have the will power with Deadpool though haha. But much respect if your able to, In this day and age it's not an easy task. It no doubt adds to the first viewing experience.

 

[Tanin]

The campaign is entertaining and the movie sounds interesting. Not much really I can say about the character other than that.

 

[Retroman]

Brilliant poster!

I love that they've resisted the urge of showing the lead actor unmasked in the poster campaign. I suppose Ryan Reynolds' string of box office disappointments may have had something to do with that.

 

[Sleiek]

Omg, that poster.

They never run out of brilliant ideas. Deadpool's got to be hell of a lot of fun.

 

[BlackFox]

If nothing else this film will give us a great marketing campaign and one of the best costumes so already a win in my book.

Xmas day is going to be even sweeter for a new trailer, hope it can give us more of the first in terms of Deadpoolness.

 

[FrozenBanana00]

Love this poster!

 

[Superhero 101]

Love the poster, love the batman reference, love the marketing

The poster tagline should have been "Ready to unload…"

 

[JP]

Magical.

 

[venom892]

This has been my favorite marketing campaign in a while. Love the new poster and I'm exciting for the new reveals.

 

[GREEN =w= DAY]

i want that new poster

so awesome!

People.com needs to move. I wanna know what today's exclusive is.

Nothing really new, but Ryan Reynolds fooling around with the Christmas standee.

 

[McSqueeb]

I won't be surprised if the marketing for this film ends with Ryan Reynolds in a van throwing free Mexican food at pedestrians.

In all seriousness, he does seem to be the driving force behind the marketing and that's awesome. It's like the Survivorman of marketing campaigns, just Reynolds with a camera.
