Deadpool The Ryan Reynolds/ "Deadpool" Thread part 2

[night0205]

he's obviously in deep emotional turmoil...i mean they shaved his eyebrows! and turned him into the first apple computer...what do you expect?

 

[MrShifty]

I don't understand why he'd have to be in make up if Scott Adkins played Weapon XI

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Reynolds was Weapon XI as well. Scott Adkins did all the flipping about and all that. But you can clearly see that it is Reynolds under the make up in the close up shots.

it breaks my heart what they've done to the character of bara...i mean deadpool in this film.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Yea it is pretty crappy. But Reynolds himself has said he isn't Deadpool yet. This...barakapool is just the in between stage of Wade Wilson and Deadpool. I hope Reynolds gets his wishes and is able to portray the proper Deadpool in his own movie very soon.

Oh, and welcome to the hype.

 

[annie.j88]

cool, and thanks!t:

I think that was just wishful thinking on his part....I remember when he did Blade 3....there was talk about doing a spin-off with him as well...but nothing happened

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Maybe.

But Hannibal King isn't Deadpool. Hannibal King wasn't lined up for half a decade to have his own film. And pretty much everyone in the know has said a Deadpool film is guaranteed as long as Wolverine doesn't completely bomb.

I do think it's still wistful thinking, and no guarantee for a spinoff. They were talking about a Silver Surfer movie after FF2 as well, but nothing came out of it. It's likely that the only big-screen rendition of Deadpool is the Barakapool we got in Wolverine, and imo that just sucks.

That's a good point. I remember all that talk about the Surfer, so spinoff talk doesn't mean anything. The Surfer was one of the better parts of his film and the ending clearly set up for a continuation of his story. That's the opposite case with Deadpool.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

What talk about the Surfer? That was all fan talk wasn't it? The Surfer wasn't mentioned in solo films before he was in FF 2 was he?

The fact is a Deadpool movie has been doing the rounds in hollywood since before Blade Trinity. And if they do make a Deadpool film, it won't be Weapon XI, it will be Deadpool. The end of the film puts paid to that. Weapon XI is dead, Deadpool hasn't even been born yet.

Deadpool is now a certified A-Lister in the M.U. The guy is now getting 2 ongoing series, he is involved in multiple cross-overs. It makes financial sense to make a film with him featuring a star like Ryan Reynolds.

And if it's wishful thinking by me, it's wishful thinking by a lot of people who work in Hollywood as well.

Exactly. If Fox makes a Deadpool movie it wont be on the barakapool interpretation. That can NOT carry a film. How obvious is that.

right now ANYTHING we get from a Spin off Deadpool movie will be 10 times better then your "barakapool" stuff, even if its not as close to the comic. They would at least make it as accurate as the wolverine character has been to his comic, because he can become just as popular...

But as of right now, i can REALIZE this, and be OKAY with whats done i wolverine because its an interpretation of his origin. It pisses me off, alot does, especially no added in scenes.. but life goes on... more movies get made

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Yea I mean even Fox ain't stupid enough to think a mute can carry a film. The main reason Deadpool would make a great film is his mouth, bad assness and interaction with the audience and him taking the piss out of other movies.

 

[Deaths Head II]

I distinctly remember people from Fox wanting a Surfer film. I could be crazy, but I'm fairly sure it wasn't just fan talk. And Silver Surfer was doing rounds in Hollywood for years as well before he finally showed up in the Fantastic Four. I read a magazine article from back when all we had were the X-Men and Spider-Man films (forgot the year) that the rights were circling around along with several other comic properties. Somehow he ended up in Fantastic Four 2 instead of his own film. It actually brilliantly parallels Deadpool. He was supposed to have a solo film and now they're sticking him in a franchise he's closely associated with instead. And possibly in hopes of a spin off.

I'm not saying that Deadpool will experience the same fate, but I'm not believing ANY of the rumors until I hear it gets officially announced.

I'm not 100% believing anything either. But all things point to him getting a spin off. And I'll remain positive until some one in the know says otherwise.

I like your optimism, but until I actually see Deadpool being greenlighted and Ryan Reynolds signed on the dotted line, I won't be convinced that he's getting his solo movie. Besides, I have great hesitation regarding Fox's ability to make a good spinoff movie, since the last time they did it (Elektra), it bombed, and Fox can't even make a good non-spinoff movie since they made X2 when Singer was still part of the franchise. Just about everything else came after X2 (Fantastic Four, X-Men 3, FF2) have been disappointments.

I agree with this. If they made a Deadpool film I am more likely to think it would be just a generic and mediocre mercenary film with Ryan Reynolds cracking wise.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Well that's what gives me hope. If Elektra can get a movie and she was in a pretty crap film (the DC was pretty good IMO though) and the walking Hollywood cliche that is Frank Castle can get 3 films, a really unique and fresh character like Deadpool should get a film.

And I don't think it will just be a generic mercenary film with Reynolds cracking wise. The main appeal, the main draw of a Deadpool film would be to make it fresh and interesting. Make it a action packed satire of the comic book movie industry, that is how you fill seats.

There must be a reason why Deadpool is hitting the big time in the comic book world as well. Marvel are making blatant moves to get him out there. It's pretty obvious they are hyping him up, and it isn't just for this film, because most of the new books he is gonna be feature in come out AFTER this film. He's getting ANOTHER ongoing, is heavily featured in Dark Reign, is featuring in Ms Marvel, Marvel Zombies, Messiah War the list goes on and on.

 

[drmick]

Ace, haven't we had this conversation before?

First things first:
Do I want to see a Deadpool flick? Yes.
Do I want to see Reynolds play the part? Yes.
Will a Deadpool flick be relatively simple and inexpensive? For sure.

Will Wolverine even get a sequel? Not sure at this point.
Are superhero movies an endangered species? You bet they are.
Does Joe Public know who Deadpool is? Gawd, no., most Mr Public's didn't even know who Iron Man was.
Is Deadpool an MU A-lister? Indeed he is NOT. Where are the lunchboxes, toys, bedspreads and other general tat?

Thus, a la a qed-esque vis a vis conclusitory apropos decisional verdiction:

NO DEADPOOL FILM

Sorry, man. You are still stuck in denial. Time to move on to:

Anger

Then:

Bargaining

Then:

Depression :facepalm

Then:

Acceptance

Don't worry. I'll be here for you all the way.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Yea we have had this convosation before, and I'll give you the same answer. Weapon XI's fate is NOTHING like Venom's fate. If you think that, you don't have a clue what you are talking about. Tell me, how is a guy who has had his head exploded or cut off many times before and survived similar to a guy who has been literally vaporized? Turned to dust? You don't have a scooby mate. And Topher Grace is not Ryan Reynolds.

And Deadpool is a A-Lister, check the link in my sig and see how many books he is gonna be in this year, there is your proof. Oh and every single book he has been in recently has been selling like hot cakes. I think that means he is a A-Lister.

Sorry to prove you wrong man, try again next time ok

 

[drmick]

Not sure of that proof. Marvel always cashes in on movie tie-ins.

I didn't see any dust in SM3. The same logic applied there says his skeleton was seen as an X-ray effect, and when the screen was all white he upped and webslung away when Peter had his turned away! See?

(And besides Venom too has survived plenty of roastings in the comics too).

That's a bad dose of denial you got there: (Boba died too).
This time next year, you will be well passed it. You may not see it, nor believe me. But you will be able to move on.

I'm pretty sure Fox doesn't view franchises by how unique and fresh they are but by how generic and tame they can make them so they can appeal to more people. Everyone loves an action hero cracking wise and shooting people, but a satire would be risky. If they did go down that route I will admit I have underestimated Fox and that I have some shred of new-found respect for them but I doubt thats going to happen.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Errrr...Venom is dead, he got vaporized. Weapon XI got his head chopped off! Wow!! He has a healing factor!! Wow!!

I'm not in denial, I'm looking at the facts. And I'm being positive, is there something wrong with that?

Why do you think Deadpool has been spoken of in movie circles for nearly 10 years? Just for fun and games? Errr...no.

The whole purpose of throwing him in this movie was to introduce the character to the movie verse. And if you wanna get really technical, Wade Wilson was killed as an experiment, then came back to life as Deadpool. So what happened at the end of this film is not out of character.

And actually saying all that, Venom IS getting a spin off. So again, you don't know what your talking about guv.

 

[drmick]

Wilson's cause of death is irrelevant. My points are valid irrespective of whether he crawls out at the end of the credits or if he gets a Venom-style toasting.

The Holywood financial landscape will not justify a Deadpool flick.

You are only prolonging your agony. Hope is your enemy right now.

How am I prolonging my agony? Who are you to say anything that holds more weight than me? Do you work in Hollywood?

The fact is this. Evidence points towards a Deadpool movie being made. Infact ALL evidence points to a Deadpool movie eventually being made. Can you show me any evidence to prove otherwise? Oh, of course you can't!

You know nothing more than me, and what I know is this.

Ryan Reynolds is a star who can hold his own film.

Deadpool is now EASILY in the top 20 most popular marvel characters. A-List.

A Deadpool film has been talked about for nearly 10 years.

There is buzz going on right this second as we speak that a Deadpool film will be green lit if Wolverine is financially succesful.

All that right there is evidence pointing TOWARDS a Deadpool film. So unless you can show me some evidence that points AGAINST a Deadpool film then what you say means...sweet **** all!

Are you going to put up a good argument? Or are you just gonna keep saying I'm in denial? Face it, you know nothing more than me, and by the sounds of things, you know less than me.
