The Run Time Length Thread

[Deaths Head II]

*Everyone that's seen the leak who's opinion I value is telling me Deadpool's final "form" is both fierce and horrific.

Well he is horrific, though not in the way you imagine....

To be honest though, I thought Deadpool looked goofy. Reynolds does not look good in a bald cap. And those blades are way too big for his arms to be able to bend.

Not to mention there is a VERY hilarious aspect of him that I can't mention because its spoilers.

Sorta, except it doesn't in the slightist bit resemble the character of Deadpool; in character, powers, or appearence. Maybe that's why the fans are pissed off....

 

[JaD]

No, I'm standing by it because whether its 90 minutes or 107 - I still haven't seen it.

And neither have you.

Trufax methinks.

 

[protocida]

It's a 5/10 movie that could easily be a 10/5.

And that's terrible.

 

[def28]

That alone sounds more appealing to me than the wacky ninja guy who looks like Spider Man and NOBODY except comic fans know about.

I hear the opposite. That the opening scene with Wade works much better and is much more true to his comic version. But I will judge it fair when its released.

Deadpool is very popular with movie and video game fans as well. I know plenty of people who are aware of the character, they just dont know the background or details on him. Which is the case with all the characters in this franchise.

It wasn't Reynolds. It was Scott Adkins.

They both look very similar though

Who cares?

I'll tell you who - Not me, and not the majority of people that will pay to see this movie.

*I saw screencaps from the leak of Weapon XI Deadpool and that man/thing looks 10 times more interesting to me than the foot soldier in red from the comics.

It both of them.

 

[Peter McCabe]

It both of them.

All I know is that Adkins played the Weapon XI part of Deadpool. Reynolds was only on set for 3 days and those are the scenes of him as Wade Wilson.

 

[protocida]

There's someone defending Weapon XI?

 

[Deaths Head II]

It's Reynolds in the close up shots.

I am not wrong about this either, when you will see the film you will see it's unmistakably Reynolds whenever he's staring down Wolverine or whatever. Weapon XI actually looks better in the action sequences because Adkins DOES look good in a bald cap.

True and good for you, but you were complaining earlier that the fans were pissed with Deadpool's portrayal in the movie, and their anger seemed fairly reasonable to me.

And I honestly didn't find the character that interesting/frightening, mainly because he was just another very unfrightening character's pawn.

Reynolds confirmed thats him in an interview. But your right, he was only there for three days. So as for how many shots hes actually in who knows?

 

[danoyse]

Don't encourage them, please.

they've been naggin about every little detail regarding that character.

I'm kinda happy it blew up in their faces.

Well, they have every right to be upset about if they didn't like it. You have no right to tell them they can't be.

 

[Peter McCabe]

never told them they couldn't be upset.

*I personally feel they deserve to be upset. And I mean that in the vindictive way.

They complained, complained and complained and the character ends up...

Yeah it's both, I have a great screencap/comparison to show that too, but then again it's incredibly sloppy how they flip from Adkins to Reynolds during the fight. Eh. I hope it's polished up because it's so blatantly obvious who is who in the end.

 

[chaseter]

I have and the reason you told us not to judge this film is that it isn't in its final form but that has been proven false. The leak was the final film, the ferrari without its paint...but no one buys a ferrari because of the paint job and I am not paying to see a film that I thought was mediocre.

 

[chaseter]

No...it was Scott in the action parts and Reynolds in the slow parts and his head looks big in a bald cap. That is why so many people thought he looked weird because he has that thick layer of hair underneath the bald cap so he sort of looks like he has a huge brain.

Personally, I've given up on fanboys.

I've been here for 2 X-films now (X-Men: The Last Stand, and this one), and I've seen their reactions to nearly every comic film that's come out.

I find the fanboy perspective to be rather arrogant and self absorbed.

There's a few that maintain a level of logic and level headedness, but unfortunately they are outnumbered.

And no, it has nothing to do with liking or disliking certain films. Rather, it has everything to do with the lack of reasoning behind it. They think inside a box, and anything that goes outside of that box is all of a sudden corrupt, horrible, and evil.

*waits for thewheepeople to use this post against me in an unrelated argument in a year*

Ohh I can't wait 'til April 30th, I'm watching the print, no wait. I'll put it on my PSP and watch it when I wait across the street for the movie to start at Borders, then I'll come online and come find you. Pointing out all the differences there are

 

[chaseter]

There isn't 14 or 20 extra minutes worth so your list will be short and sweet A lot of the fx were done in the leak so there isn't much more in that film that will put my butt in the seat. Fox could have done so by actually putting in 20 extra minutes but it was a promise from a group of liars so no one should be shocked that it isn't so.

I'm going to warn you one last time not to be so obnoxious to all of the other fans here.

 

[TheVileOne]

More and more do I believe McCabe somehow worked on this movie or is associated with it.

 

[Peter McCabe]

I'm going to warn you one last time not to be so obnoxious to all of the other fans here.

to call me obnoxious in this forum is like handing out a speeding ticket at the Indy 500

*I don't see the people celebrating the leak's "failure" getting warnings, Danoyse.

McCabe, at first I thought you were a bit more reasonable in your opinions but after this post...your a typical Fox stooge. You'll take whatever they give you. While some of us want a good 'film', your in the group of people who think "It's another comic film, it must be good!".

Honestly, I got over the Deadpool thing before the leak happened. I realized, it is what it is and the movie is supposed to be about Wolverine after all. Just to make things clear, I'm not one of those super fanboys that complains about the littlest of changes either. I like the first two X-men films a lot, despite all their flaws and changes from the comics.

I just think it's a chump move to say that the fans that are still pissed about Deadpool deserve it. Let alone fans like myself that wanted a better quality film that would do the Wolverine comics justice...even with some changes here and there which happen in all comic films.
