Title: Deadpool
Post by: vincegun on September 30, 2009, 03:49:49 PM
A while ago I started reading comics more and more and I eventually stumbled across a ton of Deadpool comics, which included Cable & Deadpool, Deadpool: Suicide Kings and random comic appearances. DP quickly became my favorite character EVER (screw Wolvie!!! j/k) and as such I'd like to confirm, as a few of you have probably heard, that a Deadpool movie very well may happen! To those who didn't know.... well, now you know and in this case... knowing is 3/4 the battle. The other quarter is paying for the movie ticket.

I found a few things today which pretty much all but confirm that it's going to happen. After his pre-comic look in Wolverine: Origins, the fans started to demand the Merc with a Mouth show up on the big screen as his penchant for humor AND action is 2nd-to-none.

- On the 23rd, Deadpool creator Rob Liefeld posted several updates on his twitter about a Deadpool movie development meeting he was attending. Here are a few lines from the deadpoolbugle.com webpage.

Walking into Deadpool movie meeting!!! Yowza!

Great Deadpool movie meeting! Lauren Schuler Donner and her team are headed in the right direction!

Deadpool movie checklist- DP in costume-check! Breaking 4th wall-check! Loads of killing-double check!  :10:

Deadpool movie- YES! Ryan Reynolds is on board!!!  :10:

Clarification, Cable definitely NOT in Deadpool movie, but possible role in future X-films....not First Class.   :headscratch:

Donner Company is on top of making the Deadpool movie that fans want. They get it. He's funny, tortured, clever, a bastard and mucho action! :10:

- and here are a few lines from marvelsuperstars.wordpress.com that I found

    * Deadpool will be wearing his costume in the movie.  :10:
    * Deadpool will be speaking directly to the audience, :10: :10: :10: maintaining his comic book mastery of the fourth wall.
    * Cable may appear in a future X-Men film.


I, for one, am TOTALLY psyched for this.  :2thumbsup:  I love Deadpool... just not love-love, because that would be creepy.

*edit - just found that DP movie should be a reboot of Deadpool and not tied into Wolvie:Origins.

OMFG, really?  :blue:

The guy at the end of wolverine (i think).
Although Decepticon is technically correct, its like saying Bumble-Bee is a camero.  (just trying to make a comparison).

Deadpool is like the greatest wise cracking "super villain"... EVER.  I personally consider him more of a mercenary, kind of like a slightly less sane version punisher who can give Spider Man a run for his money with come backs and cut downs(which wasn't quite in the Spider-Man movie).

Back to the point I was trying to make:

Great check list Vince!  :2thumbsup:

Never read any comic books. I'm just aware that they exist.

Yeah, I really never heard of deadpool until the wolverine movie.  Sorry my comparison was not up to par. I was not a X-Men comics kind of guy.  More into Punisher, Aliens Colonial Marines, Spawn and Pitt.
