DON'T WATCH AT WORK IT'S DEADPOOL WHAT ARE YOU THINKING YOU'RE GONNA GET FIRED

[PatMan33]

Looks fun! Glad they went for full-R.

Don't like the fake blood too much, but whatever.

[Krakow Sam]

I think it looks sort of lame. Like, dumb in a bad way. :/

[Mr. Wizard]

Not to mention, the thin greasy veneer of NOT DISNEY MARVEL is all over it. However, anything with deadpool will come off as dumb, but dumb good versus dumb bad is harder to say. Ryan Reynolds is perfect for this role, way more appropriate here than as Green Lantern.

Yeah, I can see that. I'm just hoping that's the trailer.

[dndfreak]

I can't see this being good, no matter how much I enjoyed The Mask in the 90's. Honestly, every Mahvel-obsessed fan I've talked to has never even said that the movie looks awesome, just that they hope it doesn't suck. And from what I've seen from Deadpool in other media, that bar has not been set very high.

Back when Lilo And Stitch was still coming to theaters there was a series of ads where Stitch showed up in iconic scenes from the Disney classics and effectively ruined every one of them. L&S was an okay movie, but those commercials were really what endeared me to the character as a kid. I can't help but feel like the best use for Deadpool wouldn't be a movie of his own but as a series of intrusions into the lives of other Marvel properties. Deadpool is meant as a parody but all his best moments seem to be interacting with the subjects he mocks.

Aladdin's is probably my favorite.

[Mr. Wizard]

The deadpool movie is really only trailers released before every marvel movie, constantly marketing itself but never released.

[Krakow Sam]

So you're saying we're closer to Deadpool than we think?

Yup, Deadpool is inside all of us.
You could even say we... ate Deadpool, and he's in our stomachs right now!




Wait, scratch that last one...

Gooooo Captain!

[Inkling]

So has anyone seen Deadpool yet?  How was it?

[eropS]

Yes.

Good. Better than the trailers suggest. Good wit, fast story, and it's not that long kind of movie where you notice its length. In fact it's delightfully quick imo, while still providing ample character exposition and minor development.

One of the best so far from the marvel movies. I mean Ryan nails Wade Wilson, it's very much a role he fits as well as Tony Stark/Robert Downy Jr

[PatMan33]

I am genuinely not sure of Deadpool's status, but am I correct to assume that it is not a part of the cinematic universe?

[eropS]

Oh no it's very much a part of it.

He is a part of the x-men one

[Inkling]

He's an xmen character so the movie was made by whoever owns the rights to them.  Fox, I think?  So not part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe unless they work out a deal like the studio who owns the rights to Spider-man.

I just included those movies in this thread because I felt like it.

[eropS]

Oh what those aren't the same?!

Well my bad.

He is a part of the X-men universe. I guess that's not the Marvel one?

My bad! Quicksilver, should have remembered.
