Deadpool Rocks, but... THEY KILLED HIM AT THE END

Go watch it again and this time, stay through the credits so you know what you're talking about.

I didn't stay for the very end of the credits.
Mind telling me what happened?

I could......but that ruins my fun in making you go find out

Spoiler: fine i'm not that cold hearted

deadpool gets his head cut off yes. but after the credits it shows his hand and arm reaching out from under the rubble and he grabs his head, his head opens its eyes and is able to talk and says shh

I am, and I take pride in it!!!!!

I am sure you do.

Being uncool is just about the coolest thing you can do...and because of this, I win

No, because you still used one or more exclamation points, which is an instant loss.

well it wouldn't be me if i didn't.

just like you wouldn't be you if you weren't a pretentious ass

but i still love you max

moreso because you are a pretentious ass.

Didn't ruin the movie for me. But then I'm one of those filthy heathens who doesn't appreciate Deadpool's comic status as I have never read a single Marvel comic in my life (How dare I?).

Not meant as an attack on you or anything. Just sayin', haven't read the comics so really wouldn't know/care.

And yet most of the comic films that sht on the comics wind up being bad films.... all but for the zombies who only watch and pal1ly for the eye candy and nothing else....

"pal1ly"? ...Your whole sentence kinda fell apart there. I have no idea what that means.

Anyhow. I thought it was a pretty good movie, the special effects weren't all that impressive. I was kinda disappointed that a cool character like Wade just up and got killed by Victor and that it is further only alluded to in a couple lines. Then he gets brought back as computer-controlled supermutant guy, I was kinda... "What."

Overall, whether they "took artistic license" or "sht on the comics", I thought it was a pretty good movie. Really, you should be glad more people are taking an interest in the franchise, even if it is through movies that bend the canon a bit. They could find all the comics and take an interest and learn how the story initially (not truly, work of fiction people) went. Or would you rather have no movies at all and the entire franchise just stagnates where it is now? I'm sure a ton of movies are based on older works and bend the stories a bit, but most people don't mind that. I suppose it is because comics are much younger and used to be very popular with a generation that is still alive that people are so vocal about this.

But enough ranting about comics and movies inspired by them. Safe to say fancy special effects don't impress me, and I liked the movie, because it gave me a more complete image of Wolverine as portrayed by Hugh Jackman, who frankly, is pretty badass.

pal1ly=play
My spell checker/brain is broken

You can have a reasonably good movie without screwing over the fiction or the plot or its characters using persudo realism and weak generic hollwoodized envisioned crap that tends to become regurgitated martini minus the alcohol.

Although its not the worst marvel has done(Spiderman 3,Blade 1-3,80's Punisher,Hulk,08 Punisher,Fantastic four 1-2) its close to the low end(Spider man 2,Xmen 2-3,Ghost rider) as far as I am concerned.

Funny thing about not raping the franchise while adapting it, it will do as good regardless and I don't know if that's truly sad or not.

Hopefully this will be the worst of the writers strike as far as comic films go......

 

[Baby Tea]

Alright Baby Tea there is no nice way to say this, your a moron.

Thanks for calling me a moron, jerk-off. And it's you're, not your. Dumbass.

Firstly if you say you should not expect true greatness out of any comic book movie, you should go back and see The Watchmen, The Dark Knight, Iron Man,the Incredible Hulk, Hellboy 2, Sin City, 300, SpiderMan 1-2 and X-men 2....Granted these are opinions but those movies were exactly what I wanted.

You're right, they are opinions. You know, using opinion to debunk another opinion isn't a very good way to make a good point. Unless you're an idiot. Besides, if you read what I said, you'd see that I basically said if you don't expect greatness, then you won't be hugely disappointed, and you could even be surprised! I even used The Watchmen as an example. I enjoyed all of those movies, of those I saw, too! But even the Dark knight didn't follow the comics! Why aren't you whining like a little school girl about that? The Spiderman movies didn't follow the comics exactly either, so put that on your 'cry about this' list too, right?

No. Because they were fun movies. Who cares?

You don't read them. You telling me to get over them butchering deadpool to the point of no return is like someone making a movie about the 2008 Superbowl and having the other team win...Fans of the team that won are going to be pissed! So no. the whole "get over it" attitude does not work when you like something your told its going to be in a movie, you see the movie and that something *this can be literally anything* was done THAT wrong...Its not going to settle well.

So Spiderman and Batman fanboys should all just hate those other movies since they did it so wrong? Seriously man, get over it. It's a movie. It's not canon. All your precious comics aren't going to explode and burst into flame with this 'new' Deadpool being the 'right' one. Did they 'ruin' your favourite character? Fine. Go ahead and whine about it. But don't throw out other movies you think are 'good' that also don't follow the source material to the letter and say those are great examples.

You seem to be blinded by your own opinion and think that you thought it was a good action movie so who cares about the source material? Well, I'm sorry but its the source material that got me interested in the movie and the team that made this one forgot about the source....but I'm glad you liked it.

You're not blinded by your opinion? Huh, could have fooled me!
But thanks! I'm glad I liked it too! And apparently I'm not the only one! It's getting pretty decent reviews, and it blew everything else away at the box-office this weekend! Looks like a good sign to me! A sign that not everyone is walking into the theaters clutching their comics ready to rage as soon as their favourite character doesn't look or act exactly like the comic book.
Grow up man. It's a movie about some fictional hero, not your mother.

*SPOILERS*
Yeah from the ending, deadpool isnt exactly dead. You need to watch the bit after the credits.

If you really really really want to know, it shows him getting his head and saying shhhhh to the camera/audience e.g. breaking the 4th wall as Deadpool is so well known for in his comics.

I enjoyed the movie for what it was. When i saw Deadpool i was like wtf too. The way i see it though, with him losing his head and all, they could have a good way of stripping him of some of his powers(the ones he isnt meant to have e.g. cyclops, crazy ass diamond or adamantium sword things), somehow the trauma lost his powers or something. anythings possible in comic book world

Also to note that Stryker was saying they had just added a batch of abilities and the scientists were saying that the procedure wasnt quite finished yet and Stryker told them to activate him anyway. They could just say those extra powers were only temporary because the process hadnt been quite completed. If they did a deadpool movie(which i hope they use Reynolds cos he really is perfect for the role, his sarcasm etc) it could easily be explained somehow im sure.

The weird thing is how Deadpool is accredited as Scott Adkins while Wade Wilson is Ryan Reynolds. The close up of Deadpool's face definitely looks like Reynolds. I can only imagine that this Scott Adkins fella was the stunt guy doing all the fight scenes with wolverine and Sabretooth, hence the accreditation.

 

[cobra_ky]

I hate your poll, and I refuse to vote in it due to the caps lock and exclamation points.
That is all.

this, only i voted anyway since i hated what they did with deadpool a lot more. ryan reynolds actually didn't do that bad a job but then he completely disappears from the goddamn movie. i was also pissed that half the mutants they played up in the ads ended up having five minute cameos or worse.

Deadpool Rocks, but... THEY KILLED HIM AT THE END
oh ya spoiler...

No they didn't, not according to the special Deadpool ending, did anyone else but me actually see it?

for some reason there were two different scenes. i sat through the credits and all i saw was wolverine in japan getting drunk.

 

[Geddes]

If they had just made a movie (or three) out of the opening credits sequence with Wolverine and his brother in the World Wars and the American Civil War would have been bloody fantastic. Instead we got what was, in my opinion, a terrible movie. Not just for the killing of the story, the script was sub-par and the acting could have seen an improvement.

 

[Strong Intelligent]

I don't care as long as it was entertaining to watch.

Just because it didn't give you the nerd stiffy you wanted, Sheesh.

 

[nova18]

I see it as being like a documentary about racoons.
Say that the documentary is 100% correct, but then you see a pig fly through the scene, it ruins credibility.

Now these films should be a fair representation of their source material, so they should at least TRY to remain factually accurate.

Imagine if they had shown Wolverine falling into a vat of liquid adamantium and insisting that this is how he got his powers. People would hate it, but you could also say that they were taking creative liberties with his character. We all know it would be bullshit, but they did the same with Deadpool and everyone seems to back them up.


I'm not actually making a point, I just felt like typing cause my fingers were seizing up.

EDIT: If I were directing the film, I would "accidentally" name the character Deathstroke. The Marvel fanboys would probably throw up.

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

Having never heard of Deadpool before the film, I thought he was a pretty badass villian.
