X-Men Spinoff ‘Deadpool’ to Hit Theaters Feb. 12, 2016

Sounds good to me. I think Reynolds will be fine. As bad as Green Lantern was it was still better than Man of Steel.

I think Ryan R is perfect for Deadpool. I'm stoked, but cautious.

Reynolds is perfect for deadpool. He has been privately pushing this movie for a WHILE.

So before you bash him, remember he is the reason this movie is being made.

The role is rock solid tailored for Ryan Reynolds. I hope he gets it and is not tabbed for any Green Lantern sequel ever again.

I know you you liked Man of Steel but I think it was one of the worst movies I have ever seen in any genre.

...state the number of critics and filmgoers who agree with you are solidly in the minority. Just saying.

Green Lantern was an abomination...... no redeemable qualities...and the tongue in cheek aspect was terrible...
At least Superman visually looked solid, and gave us the first 20 minutes on Krypton, which too me was the best part of the film.
The rest of the film was average, I'll give you that.

 

[DallasEast]

Okay. I'm out.

Obviously some people may have liked M of S but it is the ONLY movie I have EVER been to where people actually stood up and booed at the end of the movie (and no I did not start the booing but I did join in). That could of happened in Green Lantern also but I wouldn't know because I did not see it in a theater. I have a feeling a lot of the people who scored the movie high were testosterone filled teenage boys who enjoyed the mind numbing action/fight scenes that destroyed almost everything.

Here's Claude and Steven's MetaCritic scores for Green Lantern:

60 - Stephanie Zacharek | "Takes forever to get going and then goes nowhere."
38 - Claudia Puig | "For a movie that touts the importance of humanity, Green Lantern is a strangely lifeless spectacle."

Those boys. LMAO!

I think Kym was attending his bar mitzvah at the time and missed GL. He's a grown man now.

Okay, Man of Steel got a 55 on Metacritic. A good comic flick like Gaurdians of the Galaxy got a 76. I understand you liked it, I just can't see why and never will.

 

[thewireman]

I would love a deathstroke vs deadpool movie

Understood. We all like what we like.

That would be a good crossover.

I would rip MOS but there were some great parts. They just didn't get it right.
Too dark, too epic. Have to find a happy medium. CA2 was ok but they take it down "too serious road too long"... It's a friggin superhero/comic.
