And yet you could bring yourself to overlook those things in X2?

It was completely different in X2. First of all, Singer was brilliant at making the most out of small character moments. Whether from a glance of one character at another, or a single line of dialogue, you could just take so much. My personal favourite moment in that whole film is when you just see Pyro looking at Bobby's family photos and you suddenly know SO much about him and where he's come from and what he wants, from like a 5 second shot. It's just a shame they ruined his story in X3.

Similarly with Collossus, he was just a student, not a main part of X2 by any means, but his one line with Wolverine where he says "I can help you!" and Wolverine says "Help them!" Informs more about his character than anything ever did in X3, and there he was promoted to X-Men status. In X3 we had no idea who he was, we only heard his name Pete once, there was no personality shown to him. He only existed in that movie so Wolvie could do the fastball special, which is ridiculous.

Also, Cyclops played a decent enough role in X2. For an ensemble film, not everyone is going to get a majority of the screen time, and Bryan Singer was definitely setting things up for all the movies. I know one of the complaints you hear alot is that the movies just focus on Wolverine, but I think while X2 was intended to fully delve into Wolverine's past, Singer was setting up X3 to be about Scott and Jean. It's such a bloody shame that Singer had to walk (freakin' Fox!) because I don't care what anyone says about his movies, he put character first, and thats what's important to me with X-Men, the characters. I don't need a million cameos, I just want the characters to feel like the characters!
 
^ But I feel like Singer's ego has been getting the better of him since. He's just not the same director he was when was during X-men films or before that.
 
Yeah, I agree. It's a shame, I really think X-Men was just a perfect fit for him, he seemed to really understand how to portray the characters and (What I really loved and I thought just didn't work in X3) society's attitude towards mutants. He was stupid for walking, if he had done a third film to complete the trilogy he potentially then could have done anything he wanted. Instead he burnt himself with Fox and then made a flop of a sucky film.
 
I still blame Fox moreso than Singer for him walking. Singer wanted to do a movie between sequels and Fox wouldnt let him (essentially)
 
Ok, so i read the script and one word. ok two

AWESOME
and

Francis
 
Yeah, Fox is to blame... and then there was the whole Halle Berri thing too.
 
Deadpool ambushes a convey taking a recently released prisioner back from jail in a freeway. He fights and kills several henchmen with his weapons and swords, and finally corners his target, a man called Francis, at a bridge, after a motorcycle chase. As Deadpool is about to kill Francis, he is interrupted by Colossus, who was send by Professor Charles Xavier to arrest Deadpool for the destruction caused on the freeway. Francis uses the distraction to escape, what angers Deadpool. He tries to fight Colossus, but fails and escapes back to the house he shares with a elderly blind woman called Blind Al.

As Deadpool recovers from his wounds thanks to his extraordinary healing factor, we learn that he is Wade Wilson, a former mercenary who used to spend most of his time hanging out with his friend Weasel at a bar owned by former mercenary Patch and having sex with a prostitute named Vanessa Carslyle, whom Wade eventually fell in love with.

One day, Wade found out that he had terminal Cancer and decided to leave Vanessa, promising only to return after he had found a cure. After several unsuccesful attempts, Wade went back home, fully prepared to die, when he was approached by a mysterious man who identified himself as a representative of the United States government. The man offered Wade a chance of be healed and become a super-hero, which he accepted.

Wade was taken to the a mysterious place called the Workshop, where he is introduced to a man named Ajax and his henchmen Garrison Kane, Wyre and Sluggo. Ajax doesn't feel pain. Kane has robotic limps. Sluggo is super-strong and Wyre can grow metalic wires from his fingers.

It becomes clear that Wade was tricked into becoming a guinea pig for illegal experiments with humans. After months of unspeakable torture, Wade finally develops a healing factor, but at a high cost: His body is horribly desfigured and his sanity is taken away.

One day, Wade was finally able to escape and destroy the Workshop. For it's illegal experiments on unwilling humans, Ajax was arrested. He was the one Wade tried to kill on the freeway, but failed. Ajax finally reunites with Kane, Wyre and Sluggo and prepares to finally take revenge on Deadpool.

After escaping the Workshop, Wade tries to commit suicide, but finds out he can't due to his new powers. After several attempts to harm himself in order to find out just how indestructible he really is, he returns to Patch's bar, where Weasel encourages him to use this powers to go back to being a mercenary.

Taking inspiration from a Death Pool on Patch's bar and a Spider-Man mask turned from the inside out, Wade Wilson becomes Deadpool.

Back to modern times. Ajax, Wyre, Sluggo and Kane enter Patch's bar and use their powers to kill everyone in it, including Patch. All of Wade's friends, except for Weasel, are killed. Ajax and his men then proceed to take over the mercenary scene in the city, taking down everyone who stands on their way.

Weasel tells Deadpool what happened. Deadpool, who believes that Ajax can cure him, tracks Wyre down to a local Strip Bar, where they fight. Wyre is defeated and killed by Deadpool, who also finds out Vanessa is working as a Stripper at the bar. He tries to talk to her, but bails out.

Meanwhile, Ajax kidnapps Vanessa and sends Deadpool a SMS telling him where to find him for them to settle their score.

After being outfitted with guns by Weasel, Deadpool heads to Ajax's penthouse when he is approached by Colossus, who offers him help as a apology for accidentaly allowing Ajax to escape earlier. Deadpool agrees.

Together, they arrive at Ajax's lair, where Sluggo await. Colossus and Sluggo fight. Meanwhile, Deadpool enters Ajax's lair and kills all of his guards. Kane is send to bring him down. Deadpool fights and defeats Kane.

He heads to Ajax's office, where the two of them fight, all while Vanessa, strapped to a torture machine called the Punch Bowl, watches helplessly. Colossus finally manages to bring Sluggo down, but the entire building collapses.

Colossus emerges from the debris and rescues Vanessa. Meanwhile, Deadpool retreives Ajax's badly injured body from the debris. Colossus tries to talk Deadpool out of killing him, but Deadpool refuses and sends a bullet straight to Ajax's head. Killing him.

Deadpool and Colossus settle their score. Deadpool promises to be on the lookout. Then, he and Vanessa make up and become a couple once again.

Meanwhile, the man who recruited Wade to the Workshop prepares to leave the country by plane. He tells a aisle that he has been assigned to a new project. His name is finally revealed: Dr. Killbrew.

As the credits roll, Deadpool and Blind All finally manage to assemble a IKEA furniture piece (who quickly collapses); and Amy Winehouse (Wade's beat on the Death Pool) is ran over by a bus.

THE END.

I hate to say it,but the summary for the script sounds really generic and crappy for a Deadpool movie. It's also like one of those half decent action movies,I blame the script actually,and not you.
 
Did you read the actual script? It's the dialogue and stuff that makes it great, and it's not a straight from point A to B film, it switches between time periods so it starts in the present, and then goes back and forth between various events (some of them with no relevance at all, just for humour sake eg Amy Winehouse getting hit by a bus) with Deadpool narrating. It would all be in the style and way the story is told that would make it funny.

Look at a movie like Kick Ass. Very simple plot when you think about it, but it sure as hell doesn't feel like that when you're watching it.

Any movie that has Deadpool throwing himself into a polar bear cage to let himself get torn apart get a big tick in my book.
 
If they dont cast Cloris Leachman as Blind Al, I will be upset.

I wish they got T-Ray in there. I also feel like they should use someone else besides Collossus to cut all ties to the X-Men films

No, I like the Collossus thing. Hopefully between his appearance in this, and the First Class film they can make people forget all about the recent X-Crap considering it's different iterations of the characters. Might make it easier to reboot X-Men, which it desperately needs.
 
No. I might have worded that weirdly. I meant between the X-Men reference in Deadpool and then the First Class film, that have no clear and direct links to the previous X-Men franchises.

Sure they've said First Class is in the same universe but it's all different actors, and no Cyke or any early X-Men, for all intents and purposes it's a reboot, or a chance to get away from the Fox stigma.

Ugh, keep T-Ray as far away from the character as possible, IMO.

It's already going to be an uphill battle getting him to be taken seriously, and you wanna toss in a WWF looking guy with albino skin, a band-aid and magic powers?

Here is the thing,I wasn't a fan of the Kick-*** source material before seeing the movie,as for Deadpool,I'm already a fan of his source material and therefor had high expectations for his movie. I haven't read the script, and lastly I am more concerned with the story element than I am with the dialog element when it comes to movies. Wrong for me at least,I think nothing of the simplistic plot from it. If this movie wasn't based on a source material then I most likely wouldn't care too much about the story,if it was a remake of a movie that I was never a fan of at all,or alot.

TBH, you should read the script before making an opinion such as that. As far as you know, a bunch of highlights from a member might be a bit skewed.

Looking at his list I was also a bit unimpressed but then I read it and I loved what they did with the script. It's so much more than what was posted here.
 
Have you actually read it? He works quite well. It's not like the gratuitous cameos from Wolverine, he actually plays an important moral compass in a story that is otherwise essentially completely without morals and just pure bloodshed and fun.
Why Colossus of all people to do that? Colossus has very little connection with Deadpool at all. And how does this even work with the previous X-men films with Colossus in there if this is NOT the Deadpool from the Wolverine movie?

As far as I understand it, it's only the Wolverine movie which is made to seem like it's not in the same world.

The X-Men are mentioned, though Colossus is now an adult rather than a young student and he ends up accidentally involved with a Deadpool mission. Why he is there is another matter. I rather suspect it's to provide a more familiar character (for the mainstream) and to give that character the development he deserves (which he didn't get in X2 and X3).
 
Wouldn't it be fun, when Deadpool has a conversation with Colossus, he suddenly goes "Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Dude, did you just honestly speak more than two lines? I didn't know you were allowed to."
 
Wade does make indirect mention to the X-Men and the School too

How is it that possible when the Wolverine movie is set in the same world as all the other X-men movies?
 
Simple, Origins was a ****ty movie. So no one really cares.
 
Just like they aren't really acknowledging Origins when Deadpool gets made.
