About time! The test footage looked great; if they toned the CGI down juuussst a little I think it has the potential to be something great.
I'm really hoping it takes place in the X-Men universe. Maybe it could take place between The Wolverine and Days of Future Past.

Is this the same Deadpool from the Wolverine movie?
Yes and no X-Men Origins: Wolverine has been retconed Days of Future Past clearly gets rid of it as well as some of the stupid aspects of the fox franchise. So Ryan Reynolds probably be back he clearly hasn't signed anything but he has been campaigning this movie for years and I'm sure he will sign on. The leaked script didn't really even mention it. In the leaked script he wore the classic red and black costume from the comics had swords and scarred face oh and most importantly had a mouth. So outside of a 4th wall joke don't expect any references to that abomination.
Now the question is any one bummed that some marvel characters don't get to be used in future films. Tell the truth I'm not in fact I'm happy they will be more inclined to use more characters that important to Deadpool like T-Ray, Blind Al, Weasel, Shiklah, Outlaw, Black Swan, Ajax, Killbrew, Agent X, Sandi, Patch and the Hellhouse mercs. Dammit he's got a really good list of characters and no writer ever uses them. So it would be good to see him do something then team up with other characters and fight there villains. There is one I will be pissed if there not allowed to use and that's Death but can Marvel studios really put a copyright on Death? Hell Fox managed Quicksilver and Viper into the movies so I guess anything is possible.

Fox will, without a doubt, screw the pooch on this.
Chances are if you go into it expecting, or even hoping for, Kelly, Way, or Posehn Deadpool, you're likely going to be disappointed.
Wouldn't surprise me one bit if they did something like Agent X. Simone is damn good, but even she couldn't polish the turd she was given.

It was for the test footage the directer used to be a member of Blur studios the guys who did those really fancy looking CGI cinematics of World of Warcraft and the 2nd X-Men Legends games. They did it as a favor to him. It was always a live action movie.
This costume looks like there pulling a Green Lantern but doing it competently. My guess they want to make it so comic accurate they want the white eyes and cartoony expressions seen on the masks in the comics. If so cool idea love to see it in motion.

Clearly, you don't know a lot about Deadpool. The spirit of what we saw in the test demo can only be captured through an 'R'-rated film. Deadpool isn't meant for easily offended folk.
Man, I hope this film does really well at the box office. Then maybe it'll convince the Hollywood bigwigs that "R" films can be successful, and not assign every film that damn "PG-13" tag.

Ratings don't mean much these days. If you say "f*ck" once, you're PG13. More than once, R.
Use a resource like "imdb.com" to better know what content is in a movie and has led to the rating. This will help you determine whether or not a movie meets your standards.

Yes they are ignoring it completely, and technically they can because of the last X-Men movie. God that was such an awful thing to see for a Deadpool fan....It started out so promising with Wade Wilson in the beginning too... He'll have scarring on his face because the character has scarring, but since it's Reynolds I'm sure it won't be so much you can't see his face.

Ok? But the dude has been in bomb after bomb. I'm not talking about his ability to play the character.
Most of the movies he does, aren't big blockbusters, so "bomb" is an exaggeration. The big movies he's starred in:
R.I.P.D. - $130m budget - $12m Opening weekend
Green Lantern - $200m budget - $53m opening weekend, but only grossed $116m
Safe House - $85m budget - $40m opening weekend - made it's money back in 2 weeks
The Proposal - $40m budget - Made $33m opening weekend - made it's money back in 2 weeks
The Change Up - $52m budget - Made $13m opening weekend - $75m worldwide
Just Friends - Unkown budget - Grossed over $50m for a small comedy
Amityville Horror - $19m budget - Opening weekend $23m
Waiting - $3m budget - $6m opening weekend, grossed $16m (He was barely in this movie, but it was sold as a Ryan Reynolds movie)
I wouldn't say he's had a string of bombs. He does a lot of indie or low budget movies, and his last 2 big budget movies were not successful, even though Green Lantern did have a good opening weekend.
I would also say they bomb because they're bad movies, not because of him. R.I.P.D. is awful, and it's not his fault.

Waiting WAS a Ryan Reynolds movie he had one of the starring roles in it. The one he was "barely in" was Still Waiting. Also, you forgot to add Van Wilder, which was (IIRC) his first starring role. Not sure about the budget for that film or how much it made, but it was a minor hit.
Leo656
04-02-2015, 03:15 PM
Also Also, in contemporary terms, any movie that doesn't make back its budget, plus at least 2/3s, is considered "a bomb", at least amongst insiders. And even that is being generous. It's really supposed to be at least twice the budget, minimum.
Sometimes, it's even a really thin razor. "Superman Returns" made a lot of money, especially on DVD. But, in the end, it fell about $10 million or so short of the imaginary "Success" line WB had set for it, so they scrapped the franchise, even though, objectively, the movie was still successful. It's a really shaky gray area.
Anyways, I actually like Reynolds... think I'm in the minority on that... but yeah, his movies do not do well.
MsMarvelDuckie

Those aren't really my kinda movies, but I will say I like what I have seen him in and I don't find anything particularly wrong with the guy, so I'unno where the hate comes from. I assume it comes mostly from guys, who are insecure that their chick is fawning over some other guy with pretty eyes and a 6-pack. Seriously all I can think of, because otherwise I find him not really any better or worse than anybody else these days.
Like, I liked his Amityville much better than the original one. Mostly because I thought the original was ridiculously overrated. But he was good in it. And I liked him in Green Lantern; that movie had problems but I don't really count him among them.

R.I.P.D. - $130m budget - $12m Opening weekend
Green Lantern - $200m budget - $53m opening weekend, but only grossed $116m
Safe House - $85m budget - $40m opening weekend - made it's money back in 2 weeks
The Proposal - $40m budget - Made $33m opening weekend - made it's money back in 2 weeks
The Change Up - $52m budget - Made $13m opening weekend - $75m worldwide
Just Friends - Unkown budget - Grossed over $50m for a small comedy
Amityville Horror - $19m budget - Opening weekend $23m
Waiting - $3m budget - $6m opening weekend, grossed $16m (He was barely in this movie, but it was sold as a Ryan Reynolds movie)
I wouldn't say he's had a string of bombs. He does a lot of indie or low budget movies, and his last 2 big budget movies were not successful, even though Green Lantern did have a good opening weekend.
I would also say they bomb because they're bad movies, not because of him. R.I.P.D. is awful, and it's not his fault.
Also, box office is not an indication of quality.
Get educated.
Couldn't have put it better myself.

Sounds like you're not really a fan of Deadpool, the character, more like a fan of "Deadpool, the image of the character they use to sell posters."
I'm curious as to what "nudity at someone's expense" means. I think I know, I just wanna know I know.
so now I can't be a fan of Deadpool without loving all the swearing and blood? :ohwell:
nudity at someone's expense.
Someone's expense: When someone is a victim to a joke or used for the benefit of someone else.

He still has his quirky attitude of course. That's the part I like.
I liked him in Ultimate Spiderman (and I don't even like Ultimate Spiderman)
and he couldn't slice a single person in that episode and he was still fun to watch.
Maybe people like different parts of his character, I like his personality the best.

He was super annoying in Ultimate Spider-Man though. I hated the way he was portrayed. That was no doubt what a PG-13 movie would have looked like.

Well, to me it's like those things are what makes the character stand out, it's all part of how "over-the-top" he is. I mean, I'm nowhere near as deeply invested into the character as most, but I know a little bit, and it seems like taking away the "edgier" stuff does a lot to neuter the character and make him kind of generic. I mean, yeah, sass-mouth, but that's lots of characters, especially Marvel characters. Seems like they're always crackin' wise. He doesn't seem overly unique in that respect.
I'unno. It's kinda like someone saying, "I'm a huge fan of Jenna Jameson, but not her porn work." Well, then... what's left, exactly? :lol:

I do know that some things only "work" under certain circumstances. Like, you couldn't do "Kick-Ass" as anything but an R-rated movie, because it completely erases the entire point. And from what I do know of Deadpool, it sounds quite the same. "You have to do it this way, otherwise, just do a completely different story/character entirely."

hmm never felt that way....I've seen lots of cool things in just a PG-13 movie....and still feel that Deadpool would be fine with that rating.
but hey, if everyone wants an R-rated Deadpool then they should enjoy their R-rated Deadpool XD

I kinda just try and see every comic book movie regardless. But if they "keep it real" and "by the book", so to speak? Hey, all for it. Never a fan of watering things down to sell a few more tickets to people who wouldn't "get it" anyway. Then you get "Constantine". Brrrrrr.

Just because Deadpool is going to be R-rated, I doubt they are going to the extreme, it's just the level above PG-13, it's not like they are going for NC-17.
I doubt there will be any actual nudity or sex scenes, it's going to be violence heavy where Deadpool can be riddled with bullets, loose an arm and make a funny remark about it as he dishes out pain the only way Deadpool knows best.

Exactly. I've only read Daniel Way's Deadpool comics so far and I haven't seen any graphic nudity or sex in them. An NC-17 rating would be too much. The R rating is perfect. Deadpool without blood & swearing would be like giving Dare Devil his sight back.

Waiting WAS a Ryan Reynolds movie he had one of the starring roles in it. The one he was "barely in" was Still Waiting. Also, you forgot to add Van Wilder, which was (IIRC) his first starring role. Not sure about the budget for that film or how much it made, but it was a minor hit.
He was the biggest star in Waiting at the time, so he's front and center on the posters, the dvd's top billing, but he's BARELY in the movie. He's a side story. The main character is Justin Long's character. Reynolds is not even in Still Waiting. Waiting grossed like 7 times the budget.
PG-13 Deadpool can work when he's part of other movies in the X-Men universe, but I think an 90 minute or longer movie with limited adult content would get so much hatred from fans. The crazy thing is, they probably could have done a lot with blood and gore but would have to tone down the cursing, and sexual imagery and or sex talk.
I think there were options if it was pg-13 like bleeping the curses and having Deadpool address the audience about it being pg-13 etc...but it's much better off having an adult themed comic be an adult themed movie. If you can't handle gratuitous gore, cursing, crass humor, and nudity I'd avoid this at all cost.

Plus, some of his most memorable (to me, anyway) scenes have involved things like Wolvie cutting off his head and then putting it back on again, or assassin monkeys with guns shooting the crap outta him. You couldn't have stuff like that in aPG-13 movie.

Um, beg to differ. Reynolds' character was the one showing the new guy around for HALF the movie! The only other one with as big a role was the guy being offered the promotion, and he ended up quitting. And it was Ryan's character who invited the new kid to the party,and hosted it. The other characters were the ones with the side stoies. If that's "barely in it" you may need to watch it again, cause he was in over half the scenes.
Also, haven't watched Still Waiting in some time, but it wasn't really about him, and I'm pretty sure he was at least mentioned.

I own the movie on Bluray, and coincidentally watched it 2 weeks ago. He is a supporting character to Justin Long's character who is the one struggling with the decision to take a manager position or not. The movie has a lot of characters and a gag throughout the movie is Reynolds training the new guy, and never letting him talk. There is not story arc to Reynold's character other than he's accepted his path in life and likes underage girls. Justin Long's character and Mitch, the trainee are the only two with story arcs.
Still Waiting is about a competitive store opening up next door and the guy who couldn't piss, is now the manager.

Yeah, I KNOW what it's abut- I own BOTH movies, and have watched the first one numerous times myself. My POINT was that he is in the majority of the film, whether he has a story arc or not. He is training the new guy throughout the movie, and that training even intrudes on the story arcs of Justin and everyone else! That's hardly "barely there" by ANY standard.

If you guys haven't seen "The Voices" with Ryan Reynolds, you must. It's literally my favorite movie of the past 10 years. It's as much hysterical as it is tragically sad... and it's this perfect balance.

I'm not in the Lee never did anything camp but yeah the only reason he gets cameos is because he's the face of Marvel not because he created any one character or he wouldn't be getting any cameos. I mean Deadpool IS a mutant which is something Stan helped create in one way or another no matter how you feel about it so yeah this cameo is as deserved as it can get.

The reason is because he's been with Marvel almost since the company was created. He HAS been involved with almost every character they have, at one time or another. THAT'S why he's the "face" of Marvel- he MADE them what they are today!
Ugh...I'm so over these Stan Lee cameos especially in movies for characters he didn't create. Why would Fox want him in this movie?

Not true. Iron-Man, Hulk, Fantastic Four (which Fox also has rights to, incidentally) and the Avengers, to name a few. Between him, Ditko, Kirby, and Claremont, there's not a Marvel character created that he hasn't had some kind of involvement with.
What? Hulk, Iron Man, Daredevil, Fantastic Four....all created by Stan.

What a ludicrous claim. He created a lot more than just Spider-Man, y'know.
Actually, he is. He's also a fan of the X-Men, and his cameos go back all the way to the 90's Spider-Man TAS series- he had one in the last episode of the series, during the Spider-Carnage arc. It was animated, but they used his ACTUAL voice!
Ditko, Kirby. etc. It's a well known fact Stan took a lot more credit than owed for things. I'm not in the Lee never did anything camp but yeah the only reason he gets cameos is because he's the face of Marvel not because he created any one character or he wouldn't be getting any cameos.

Has Stan continued making cameos in all the Marvel movies? There's so many I don't think even a young man would be able to keep up.
Deadpool is not a MUTANT, he's part of a Weapon X program experiment, which used test subjects to recreate mutant abilities in normal humans. He was the only survivor of the experiment, hence his name. And his powers came from Wolverine's blood.
Also, he's had one in every movie except DoFP, unless he had one in it that I missed- and I was watching the Rogue Cut!
Deadpool isn't a mutant.
No, but he DOES have mutant-derived powers. Wolverine's, in fact. It's a technicality.
Stan didn't create him. He shouldn't be in the movie just because it's a Marvel character. His cameos suck anyway.
Many Marvel fans would disagree. So would Marvel, I'm guessing.
He's a mutate. ;)
Not quite. Marvel doesn't classify him in with the Mutates, because those were created by Mr. Sinister in the Savage Land. Deadpool was a Weapon X test subject, using Wolverine's healing factor to halt his cancer, and giving him a permanent healing ability. He was the only survivor of the group who was in the experiment. Hence his name. They had a betting pool on who would survive the longest- a "dead pool". Obviously, he won....

You're right, he's not part of The Savage Land Mutates. But he is a mutate and Marvel definitely classifies him as one. Even Deadpool himself classifies himself as one.
Mutates acquire their powers through unnatural, external stimuli. That stimuli in this case being the Weapon X Program. The same goes for Spider-Man, The Hulk, etc.
Note that he's a mutate, with a lower-case M. Not an upper-case M, meaning he's not part of the group known as The Savage Land Mutates. The definition and the group are two separate things.
I managed to see the trailer during the few minutes it was up last month. (Mr. Snail Mail here.)
This is just me, but a few of the jokes felt a little forced like the Green Lantern movie jab or the back-and-forth jokes about Wade's scars. Everything else seems decent. I'm loving the costumes for sure.

Note that he's a mutate, with a lower-case M. Not an upper-case M, meaning he's not part of the group known as The Savage Land Mutates. The definition and the group are two separate things.
When has he ever been called a mutate? Not in any of the comics I own- which is MOST of his series from 2002-2007 as well as a number of his guest appearances in Spidey and Avengers books, among others. Also, his origin and history changes more often than Mystique's disguises. Seriously. Even HE can't keep his own backstory straight, and the definition of Mutates I'm familiar with includes only those who have been directly and INTENTIONALLY altered using a mutant genome which MIGHT include DP (kind of iffy, since he keeps changing his own backstory), but NOT Spidey or Hulk, or anyone else who gained powers from accidents or other sources. They are merely considered "powered humans".

Play the Deadpool game, he says it himself. Although he does include the word "technically". I guess it all depends on who you ask since his backstory does change from time to time. But I can't find anything about it having to be intentional, as long as it was caused by an external source. That's how Marvel classifies it anyway:
""Mutate" is a term used to refer to superhumans who acquired their superpowers by exposure to some mutagenic compound or energy (either accidentally or deliberately). Unlike Marvel's Mutants, Mutates require external stimuli to acquire their powers (i.e. they weren't born with the potential to manifest powers)."
"Deadpool fits into this category as he gained his healing factor from genetic alteration from the Weapon-X program (derived from Wolverine's)."
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutate_(comics)
Deadpool is also listed on these lists of mutates - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Marvel_Comics_mutates, http://marvel.wikia.com/Category:Mutates, and is categorised as a "Human Mutate" on his official Wiki page - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadpool. The same goes for Spider-Man and The Hulk who is a Human Gamma Mutate.
A quick Google search also brings up several places where people ask if Deadpool is a mutant or a mutate and the answer they get is mutate.
I do hope the movie won't have a complicated backstory for him as well. :P
I'm not denying that Stan Lee has made a great contributions to comic book industry. But why give him a cameo in the movie of a character he didn't create?
It's just a silly tradition, don't take it so seriously.

I don't know about the Deadpool game as I've never played it, but I'd take the Wiki info with a grain of salt, since it is unofficial. Marvel's own Marvel Universe wiki is more accurate and IS official. (At least last I checked- I used to be a Mod over there.) None of the Marvel Encyclopedia or MU wiki listings for him have ever mentioned being called a mutate. Nor have Spidey or Hulk been called such in their listings in any of their official profile info. That sounds like fanon classification. Point is, calling any of the powered humans a mutate just confuses them with the Savage Land Mutates, who ARE called that in-universe. No one else has been in the canon. IIRC, it was Sinister himself who first coined the term to begin with!
Edit: Retract what I said about that Marvel page- that is entirely arbitrary and has little to do with mutates as a class. There's really not even any reasoning behind most of the entries on there. By that page, ANY powered human would be a mutate, and that simply is NOT the case. Half those entries should NOT be there. Marvel's site has really gone downhill in quality and accuracy since they did the overhaul in 2007- which is one reason I no longer use the site. (Save for occasionally checking up on the latest issues coming out.)

I was merely showing what's out there. So what is he then? Because he's certainly not a mutant. Deadpool (and Spidey and the Hulk for that matter) matches the criteria for a mutate as stated by Marvel - the external stimuli thing. So what is he? Cos it's really starting to bug me. :P

Not entirely sure WHAT they'd be, though 'powered human" is the best definition I've seen- mutates implies it was done intentionally, a la Sinister and others who like to "play God" (looking at Pym here- that means Vision would count, too). This would include those like Black Cat (went looking for real powers), Spider-Woman and Binary/Ms. Marvel (High Evolutionary or Kree meddling), and Deadpool (Weapon X), Ant-Man, or (possibly) even Captain America, as well as- technically- the Inhumans, (though they are not even human anyway) but not those whose powers came about by pure accident, like Hulk, Spidey, Tigra, or the Fantastic Four. Oddly enough, She-Hulk WOULD qualify, because her powers were a side-effect of a blood transfusion from Bruce, thus "intentional". Iron-Man and others who are simply "augmented" normal humans also don't qualify, for obvious reasons. In fact, they have their own designation.
At one time, it was suggested by Beast that Spidey COULD be considered a mutant because his human DNA had changed enough due to the influx of spider-genes that he had "evolved". This was mentioned in the comics and in the 90's toon, the latter of which was during the infamous "Man-Spider" arc. In the comics, it was mentioned several times, including during the "Other" arc, IIRC. However, it SHOULD be noted that his powers COULD be considered an "act of God"- or at least the "Great Spider" totemic power, according to the arcs involving Ezekiel and Morlun. Several other heroes have similarly "ordained" powers- notably Tigra. These might need their own designation. (Preordained accidents? Destined powers?)

Yeah, he was, so he probably qualifies on a technical level. I just don't like lumping him (or anyone else) in with the Mutates "team/group". Either way, he's a special case to begin with, since his powers are the only thing keeping him alive. In fact, he once tried to kill himself by getting rid of them, since suicide by other means is basically impossible. He ended up changing his mind, and had to get his powers back so he wouldn't die. There was an arc that lasted three or four issues, IIRC.
As for source of powers, it might seem flimsy at first, but it's a pretty big distinction, especially in-universe. Most of those who were GIVEN powers did so voluntarily (or were forced into it), and did so knowing what they were getting into. Those whose powers were accidental (or from a "higher power") didn't, and it affected how they reacted to them, in most cases. And in some cases, they didn't even know they HAD powers until later. Most of those went through at least one stage of wanting to use their powers for personal gains.

At least he didn't have the same problem as some of the mutants who were depowered on M-Day. Blob especially had it bad. He suddenly got super-skinny, (I guess his size/weight was his sole ability?) and then tried to commit suicide by slitting his own throat because all his skin was hanging off in layers- and couldn't. TOO MUCH skin to try to cut through.

Pretty sure they will Fox wants to make an X-Men related tv series for the Fox network to go along with Gotham. But they need Marvel to allow them to do so. The rights would be perfect for negotiations. Would marvel take it don't know. I dont think Marvel even cares about the F4 anymore granted I got a feeling they would kill to get there rights to Galactus and Silver Surfer.
