Deadpool Deadpool Spin-off Confirmed - Part 2

[def28]

Exactly, X-Men is their only lucrative Marvel franchise. Which is why they need to break out. Ya got all these other characters. I want to be confident they now what they are doing with who they own. Likewise with WB and all theirs. I have as many issues with them.

Fox waited till the wire on F4 and lost Daredevil. So, it's just tough to tell what's going on with Fox. As a fan yeah that sucks. But even as a business they could be rolling in some serious dough if they played their cards right with new properties. But first they have to take that step.

 

[Mrs. Sawyer]

That's the part I also disagree with because they could be making money on other characters. Instead of focusing on only fixing other ones. It doesn't really make sense to me.

It doesn't? They're not Marvel Studios. They have properties more than X-Men and Fantastic Four. Once again, I can understand your frustration, but you keep acting like they need to make Deadpool when he's necessary to the X-Men universe or even keeping it going.

It's not just Deadpool, it's all their possible properties.

Deadpool isn't required to keep the X-Men universe going. He is his own property. The reason they should make Deadpool is that it's a good movie, And he's a character (just like any Marvel one) that people want to see.

When a company has a character I see as being profitable and not doing anything with it, then ya that doesn't make sense to me. That's both as a fan and as someone who thinks a studio is just potentially wasting a new franchise. They could be making money and establishing a fan base. I would assume Fox wants more franchises.

 

[Mrs. Sawyer]

Fox saw properties that were more popular, and had more potential to make more money than Deadpool. It's not that hard to see that Planet of the Apes prequel, a First Class/X3 prequel/sequel had more big money potential than Deadpool. They see differently. It's that simple. You don't like it, but it does make sense why they were hesitant to make a Rated R superhero movie when past Rated R superhero movies flopped, especially when pairing with actors who's had many flops. It makes sense why they were hesitant.

You may not like it, but it does make sense and it's not hard to understand.

 

[def28]

We just see it differently man. I have alot of faith in this project and character, so I disagree with Fox not green lighting it sooner along with plenty other mistakes I've seen the studio make.

I don't think it's a studio or group of film makers that really undertsand the tue potential of what they own. Just my two cents. Would love to be proven wrong at some point.

 

[Mrs. Sawyer]

I think disagreeing with it is fine, but it's not hard at all to see why it hasn't happened yet.

Before you branch out, you have to fix your main series first, regardless of a spinoff has anything to do with it.

 

[def28]

I think disagreeing with it is fine, but it's not hard at all to see why it hasn't happened yet.

At the beggening sure. But after all these years of excuses and holding on to the project they had time to work things out and stop being scared. Or they should have canned it, solid it back and did something by now. It just screams "we don't know what to do". Which isnt good.

It's been an interesting project, still has the same crew attached despite being on hold for so long.

 

[Mrs. Sawyer]

Actually, it's easier to see why they haven't seeing as Ryan Reynols Box Office status got lower and lower with each year. Sure it could be his comeback project, but there's still a stigma Rated R superhero movies along with Ryan Reynolds' movies bombing along with other franchises that more guaranteed money makers. I'm not saying I agree with Fox, but Deadpool's not a necessary franchise at all. It's like you said, it's not like they rejected it. It's just not on their minds because there are simply other movies Fox has more faith it. Nothing about Fox's thinking on a Deadpool movie is outside the realm of possibility. Their hesitance makes complete sense.

 

[def28]

Yeah, but that's your opinion on Deadpool. You don't see it as a required franchise, I do. Sitting on a popular character like that is just dumb imo.

The footage shot was confrimed to be pitching a pg-13 film in mind two years ago. So who knows whats up. Not enough info here and only assumptions/opinions.

[def28]

Not for the X-Men universe, but for Deadpool himself. He needs his own property. Not just cameos. That won't do the character justice.

 

[Mrs. Sawyer]

He's a part of the package of X-Men franchise. X-Men is the main, money making franchise for them. He doesn't need to be a franchise. I can say the same thing about Gambit and other characters and teams, but at the end of the day, X-Men is the main franchise and the franchise that Fox cares about. Everything else X-Men is just complementary. People aren't breaking down doors, starting petitions, or losing sleep for the lack of a Deadpool property.

 

[def28]

Deadpool barely shows up in the X-Men. It's X-Force (who he wasn't a member of til the past 5 years) and Wolverine that he sometimes is a part of. Everything else was either solo's or Cable Deadpool. No matter what deal they got, Deadpool is a long running solo character above all.

People aren't breaking down doors, starting petitions, or losing sleep for the lack of a Deadpool property.

People have been pretty pissed for awhile and that film was in talks when he was at New Line. So I don't know what your talking about. There are tons of geek new sites just now up talking about how this is the on comic property fans have been asking for the most. AMC, Machinima, Nertdist etc It's not hard to find the interest being discussed.

Fans have been very vocal. Especially when the script got leaked, Orgins came out, and now with this footage.

It's clear we don't agree on Deadpool's place in this franchise or in Foxs handling general. Lets just move on...

 

[JP]

Fox is wasting all their potential. I won't be satisfied until they get off their asses and make a that Doop movie.

 

[def28]

I'll be there.

 

[JP]

I look at this and you know what I see?

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

 

[def28]

Someone will use him one of these days. And they will all love the heck out of him.

 

[JP]

Rocket's got nothing on Doop.



DOOP 2016

Maaaan Poop the DOOP.

 

[CyclopsWasRight]

The Hollaback Girl song that was featured in the footage has an official youtube vid. In the comments there is a comment saying "who else is here because of Deadpool" it has something like 300 likes.

 

[HIA]

you can tell when a fan is passionate about certain characters and when someone is not

Im with def28, the franchise needs diversity and Fox is wasting too much material, they are continuing the franchise, yes, but it started 14 years ago, thats more than enough to diversify, but they havent done it, so even if some fans are fine with it, thats wasting material in a very long period of time.

I agree with you. Though Fox is a big company and in my opinion, they have to take chances just like how they took a risk in making films that didnt even do well at the box office. This is Deadpool anyway, they were able to release solo films for Daredevil and Elektra back when most cb films arent that big yet. Why not today when Marvel properties are bigger in demand and the international market is bigger than ever.

I don't agree they've kept the franchise quite fresh. They attempted to branch off with Origins. After that they delved into a period piece. Then a foreign set movie (almost unheard of in CBMs) then a Sci-Fi movie. Next they'll continue with the Sci-Fi and add some disaster movie to it.

Plenty diversified

That being said they could do with mixing up the characters

 

[GuestStar2004]

DOFP had everything Fox built in it for X-Men advertised. If that didn't hit, they would have had no choice but to reboot X-Men.

First Class was more a risk imo. There really has never been a film with X-Men in the title that flopped. They feel pretty safe with it. Which is why I think they won't budge outside that title.

First class was probably the biggest risk they have ever taken for this x-men universe for many reasons and For the most part it paid off

 

[GuestStar2004]

I am fully prepared to hear we will get a PG13 deadpool movie, and after watching that footage I don't think it will lose much for it, give us a film like that and I'll see it
