Ryan Reynolds "actively" working on Deadpool spinoff

[cerealkiller182]

I was gonna mention the exact same thing, but then it slipped my mind

Wanted was a bit too stylized and fancy. Deadpool should be more visceral and natural looking I think. More gritty and grimey rather than shiney and polished.

I agree

No Elfman for score, I hate him now because he didn't include the Terminator theme in Salvation.

I believe Cameron owns the rights to the classic theme we are used to, in fact I believe he wrote it, it wasn't used in Rise of the Machines either.

 

[Minus Shock]

The final battle was seriously gritty in Wanted.

I'm pretty sure we didn't see anybody die on screen in the train sequence, so it is left to your imagination. No worse than the Shangai citizens in TF2, or the Vulcans in Star Trek or the Tatooiners in Star Wars really.

And no Americans got killed, and that's all that matters usually (they're may have been a backpacking American student on the train in all likelihood).

What happened on Tatooine? I mean Jabbas cruise ship blew up but other than that I can't think of what catastrophic event happened on Tattooine.

It was used during the end credits.

I'm pretty sure Brad Fiedel wrote the Terminator Theme.

As long as Fox is in control of the film, it's near guaranteed to suck. That studio has screwed up more characters than every other film studio combined. F*** Fox.

Oops, did I mean Alderaan? Whatever one got blown up in Ep4.

Well X-1 and X-2 didn't suck. And I thought Daredevil was ok, the DC brilliant.

So the only misses Fox has had when it comes to comic book movies is the FFs and X-3. Maybe throw Wolverine into the mix too.

Elektra doesn't count because that just shouldn't of happened anyway.

then again, they still have Dragon Ball, Street Fighter, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Hitman, Max Payne, and the countless of Rom Comcs they produce. And sorry, Wolverine was a movie that I thought was terrible. It might be entertaining to a degree but it's awful.

Seriously, they haven't had a seriously good movie in their body of work. I'm not talking about Fox Searchlight..Fox is filled with quick cash-in movies, it's not even funny. Not even an Oscar bait film. The closest would be Baz Lurrmann's Australia.

It's quite sad honestly. I dream of a day when Marvel Studios does 100% of their films...

What about Kingdom of Heaven? That's brilliant.

Yea well **** Dragonball and Streetfighter. No other studio would even touch them anyway. So the fans of those franchises don't really have much to complain about I don't think. Sure those films were crap, but if it wasn't for Fox there would never of been films based on them in the first place.

It's not Fox, it's Rothman. 20th Century Fox used to make brilliant films until Rothman became the boss. And now apparently he isn't the top dog of 20th Century. He's in charge of Fox TV and Searchlight.

Sir, I agree with you 100%. Wolverine was IMO one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Borederline ******ed plot, barely passable acting (only Reynolds was good IMO), special effects from a Sci-Fi channel made-for-tv movie, butchering of characters and plots, and blatant animosity towards fans of the source-material.

I've said it before and I'll say it forever ... F*** Fox!

 

[E-Man]

I didn't know that Fox was behind Dragonball:Evolution and Street Fighter. I'm not really surprised though. I really hope they don't turn Deadpool into something like AVP:Requiem. I want to actually be able to see the action this time.

 

[Sarg92]

Anyone read a similar article about Reynolds saying he can play both Deadpool and the Green Lantern?

[cerealkiller182]

yes I think it was posted in the Green Lantern forums

How was it a ******ed plot?

And you thought Liev Shcriebers performance was "barely passable"?

And I guess you are talking about the "butchering" of Deadpool?

Well Deadpool was never intended to be in that film in the first place. Weapon XI was always gonna be in it. Fox got the writers to re-write Wilson into the film for the sole purpose of getting the door open for his own film.

And anyway, as a massive Deadpool fan I admit that using him as the experiment makes sense to the story.

My good sir, that film's plot had more holes than a battlefield after a bombing run. It was short, pointless action scenes strung together by long boring pointless segments with no purpose other than to move the almost non-existent plot onto the next action scene. This is not the thread to discuss the many, many problems with the film. I wanted to like Origins. I thought the initial trailer looked great. What we got however, was anything but.

Liev was passable IMO. He wasn't intimidating in the least and didn't really pull off that evil vibe too well. The "musician" who played Wraith was dead-awful, and Jackman brought no new depth to the character.

Things butchered in the film: Wolverine's memory loss (WTF was that about? A gunshot to the head? That's the magic fix-all?) Deadpool, Emma Frost, Weapon XII (I know Fox created him, but like Wolverine doesn't have enough villians to choose from) random insertion of Gambit, ZERO understanding of the character or his history... virtually all of it.

I respect your opinion, my good man, but please: Your expectations/taste are far, far higher than this.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Well I like all kinds of films yea. One day I could watch Schindlers List. The next day Wolverine.

It could of, SHOULD of been so much better. But I disagree with a lot of the things you say there.

Sure there was SOME plot holes, but not to the degree you suggest.

And I think you are in a very small minority when you say Liev was "passable". Pretty much everyone else thought he was immense in it.

Pointless cameo's? Blame the fans for that. Fox and the writers made the mistake to cater to the fans with those cameos.

And I'm a massive Deadpool fan, obviously. But I accepted Weapon XI because it made sense to the story. I'm not gonna be blinded by my fanboyism.

Would I of loved proper Deadpool in the movie? Of course? Was it ever gonna happen? No, seeing as Deadpool was never officially Deadpool until after he got killed and came back to life.

 

[Docker2.0]

I agree Ace. It wasn't a Oscar winning movie but it wasn't as bad as people said. Believe me, if it was as bad as fanboys said, it would have made Watcmen money.




































Low blow I know but still....................

 

[Ace of Knaves]

I actually like Watchmen more than Wolverine to be honest.

But I remember saying back in January. Watchmen would be the better film, Wolverine would make more money.

I was right. Well, the first part comes down to opinion. But IMO I was right

But I do still like Wolverine, don't care what anyone says. It was better than the lame sex gag show that was TF2.

 

[StreetWarrior]

But I do still like Wolverine... It was better than the lame sex gag show that was TF2.

Yeah... no.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Errr yea, it's called opinion.

My opinion is that TF 2 is one of the worst movies I've seen in years.

And before someone says that "Well you expected too much" crap. I LIKED the first one. But the second one? It was like a 8 year old ADHD sufferers wet dream.

I'm done because this is borderline trolling and I'm NOT looking for a fight. You are entitled to your opinion. But in my opinion, Transformers 2, while not great, was the "Citizen Kane" of science fiction in comparison to Wolverine.

While I will be the first to say Watchmen was very flawed and wasn't great, the fact it made less money than Wolverine doesn't mean it was a worse movie. The BO measure of a film's quality vs another film's argument is not valid. BO doesn't work that way. Many factors could have contributed to it not performing well. Watchmen was not an established property on film, while Wolverine was. Wolverine was not R-rated. Etc. Quality has nothing to do with it. If it did, Titanic would be considered the best film ever.

For the record, I think Watchmen was better than Wolverine, but I am no Watchmen defender or anything. It was very flawed. But Wolverine was more flawed.

Trolling? Who me?

I'm giving my opinion. You are the one who disregarded my opinion with "Yea...no"

I didn't say you couldn't like TF 2. I'm just saying what I thought of it.
