Just thought I'd pay homage to a favourite

I have spent hours at a time watching that scene. That is my film school right there.

No audio track? A 'u' in 'favorite'? Tisk tisk, Fisch.

Just finished RocknRolla. Wasn't a fan.

News to piss APS off!

Someone who worked on the Wolverine movie sayssssssss

SPOILERS FOR WOLVERINE ORIGINS REGARDING DEADPOOL

• Ryan Reynolds shows up for 10 minutes in the beginning of the film. He's part of Stryker's team, and his mutant ability is mostly being a badass with swords, cutting bullets and the like. He is called Wade Wilson during this period.
• Stryker's big plan (or one of 'em) is to make Weapon XI, a mutant with a ****-ton of mutant powers.
• Stryker uses Wilson's body as the mutant power receptacle, and because of the scarring (I'm not sure whether that's from a previous fight, or as a result of all the mutant powers getting packed into him), Weapon XI is played by Scott Adkins. Weapon XI appears for about ten minutes near the film's end, and has the claws seen above (a la Wolverine), Cyclops' optic blast, Wraith's teleportation ability, and Wolverine's healing factor, too. Also, his mouth is indeed sewn shut.
• Just like Weapon X is given the name "Wolverine," Weapon XI is given the name "Deadpool."

So really, the only inaccuracies with the toys is that Hasbro is calling the Wade Wilson figure Deadpool too, although I can see why they'd rather put "Deadpool" on the packaging rather than "Wade." So, guys... you can freak out and boycott Fox if you want, but please, stop pretending these are two separate characters. Now, it's possible my source is inaccurate, but he's given me ample evidence to believe him (you'll have to trust me on this). So in summary: Wade Wilson is Weapon XI is Deadpool, even if he's played by two different actors. The movie's Deadpool has two big, silly claws, at least by the end. I'm sorry. But that's the way it appears to be.

Now a spoiler on what they made him look like.

Thats what they did to Deadpool.

That. Is what they did, to Deadpool.

:(

I am praying with every fibre that this is someone purposefully leaking wrong info. If it isnt, Im going to burn down Fox Studios. Thats right. Burn the ************ down. If they **** up Deadpool that badly, Im going to ******* lose it. My all time favorite comic character, they find the perfect actor to play him, and then what...they retconn his story into some stupid ******** *** ass movie plot? **** Fox. Give Marvel its character rights back. **** Fox.

Let's stop with the personal attacks on Ben Foster please. This board is a place of peace, not somewhere people come to be dicks :(

I have had faith for awhile now that Origins will be good because the director Gavin Hood was outstanding with the movie Tsotsi. If they let him do his thing I have no doubt he can make an entertaining action movie.

If you read the spoilers above and still think it will be a good movie, you are more naive then Gonzo, who thinks Ben Foster is a good actor.

Ryan Reynolds the perfect actor for Deadpool? Hahahahahaha.

[comahan]

He really is, actually.

I mean, hes not the greatest actor on the planet, but for what Deadpool is, I think Reynolds is pretty much the perfect fit for him.
