Deadpool (February 12, 2016)

[6souls]

They greenlit Deadpool because people fucking demanded it after the test footage "leaked."

I guess it was leaked by someone close to Tim Miller. The source of the leak said that if Tim was the one who leaked it, he would have the balls to say that it was him.

[Krandor]

Ryan Reynolds has repeatedly made overt hints that he did it, though consistently denies it when asked straight up.

So I'm seeing Deadpool's actual US opening weekend was $150 mil? Original projections were $70 mil xD

Edit: oh nvm that includes the extra monday

132 mil still damn good.

Man, now I want a Wolverine cameo in Deadpool sequel. Fuck!

[kuronosan]

I really badly want a Wolverine cameo.

Saw it, loved it.

You know you don't have to rehost right? You can literally put in the s

I love that R ratings finally mean something again.

That makes things so much easier. Thanks!

I love that R ratings finally mean something again.

Did they ever not? Hollywood mostly goes nuts to avoid that rating because of box office figures. Any R rated movie either means they want people to know it's adult oriented, or they suck at dancing around the edge of getting it.

I meant that hopefully the R market will expand and people will actually have to consider it when going to see a movie, instead of every option being PG-13.

As much as I'd love that, I doubt it. PG-13 is still safe and bankable, Deadpool only exists because that test video resonated with the built in fanbase and R-isms aside, Deadpools still a superhero movie which casts a wide net.

The shoestring budget --> massive returns only worries me into thinking that we'll be trying to catch Paranormal Activity in a bottle again with endless garbage being released to cash in on the R. I have far more faith in worthy R material in the realm of streaming.

[Kyreth]

It's not a hellicarrier according to Miller. Just something that looks like one.

Oh, being a Florida native I did get a nice laugh out of the references to Jacksonville haha

Bob gets used in much the same way- they didn't have permission to use Bob, but as long as you don't -say- these things, it's close enough.

They really did play walking along that line nicely in Deadpool, too.

Apparently Wolverine is getting the R as well.

Better.

You just have Hugh Jackman casually walk by in the middle of a scene. Nothing else.

Deadpool: What, you expected Wolverine? He's done with that.

Deadpool cameo, gimme.

Jackman in a sports car driving through a scene, DP lands on his hood, looks in. "How's retirement?", Jackman floors and DP falls off the back.

[Kyreth]

Better still, backs up (DP falls off), guns it (running over Deadpool).

"Still an asshole."

[Zetanio]

Hahahaha. Fuck yeah.
