Deadpool.

[Reefer Shark]

Waitaminute...... Is that really supposed to be Deadpool????

What the hell is going on here?

 

[CelticPredator]

Yes. That is really Deadpool. He has swords in his arms, a stitched mouth, and laser eyes.

Spoiler

Oh and he dies.

So good job making a spin off film after that.

Spoiler

Because they would never bring people back from the dead in the X-Movies.

The bigger question over whether they could bring him back from a spin-off would be, why the hell would anyone ever pay money to see a movie about. . .that?

You have to say, though, this Deadpool really would make Liefeld proud, and sometimes. . .that's enough.

Dude...........why!?!

 

[Kibishii]

Dude...........why!?!

Wow...I am simply stunned for words...it is amazing how they can take an awsome character, with tons of potential, and completely rape it of it's comicness. It looks like they took Barraca, Cyclops, and God of War, threw them into a blender, and came out with that. And the stiched mouth? WTH, so much for the 'merc with the mouth.'

BTW, if anyone hasn't read Deadpool #8, which came out today, it is hilarious. Gotta love a sociopath who is more interested in having a discussion (with the voices in his head )about Norman Osborn's hair than surviving.

I don't know who Deadpool is but that guy in the stills looks pretty stupid.

Oh and for not using their costumes, Wolverine looks 1 billion times better in a wife beater and blue jeans than in that silly yellow outfit.

 

[lerath666]

1/2 the time that IS his costume EF.

And for the record, based SOLEY upon your posts, Deadpool's YOU as a "Super-hero"

Ok, I'm convinced now after seeing the movie stills, that that is NOT deadpool. Optic blasts? Big arm blades?

No, it's Gotta be the Mimic.

 

[EVILFACE]

Interesting. . i'll have to look him up lol.

QFT

 

[creature4000]

This is exactly why I won't see Wolverine in the theatre... the movie looks like CACA!

They should all be harmed for ruining a good character.

Man, wtf??? That's what he is known for that mouth....Freakin movie producers...

From Topless Robot:
"If you can't read that text (besides the big label reading "Deadpool"), it says ""With the ultimate mutant, Deadpool, on the loose, Logan and Victor Creed are forced to team up- or be destroyed." Tipster Kris emailed me to let me know that text is actually a sticker. Want to know what's under it? Text which reads:

"The Weapon 11 program has created the ultimate mutant-DEADPOOL! As the mutant menace rampages across Three Mile Island, Logan and Victor Creed are forced to team up--or be destroyed."

In summary: Weapon XI is scarred Deadpool played by Scott Adkins. With claws. Enjoy."

Hurm.........

There is so much wrong with this piece of text. Nothing says exotic locales like a climactic battle near Harrisburg, PA.

*head explodes*

 

[Memnoch]

Not surprised and would explain why Cyclops is in the movie as a young kid.

One more nail....

The Deadpool Debacle Ended (Probably)

I have good news and bad news, people. The good news is that Topless Robot seems to have its first, real, honest-to-goodness Hollywood inside tipster! He worked on the Wolverine movie, and emailed me to clear up the Deadpool situation and... well, that's the bad news, especially for all you folks still deep in denial. Now, these are very much spoilers, because there's some very specific info being revealed here -- consider this your SPOILER WARNING. Now here's what my guy (I have a guy! I'm so excited!) says:

• 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.

On a slightly happier note, I've got a much more pleasant spoiler for you after the jump. It's not at all Deadpool related, so I figured some of you would want to avoid it.

Apparently, there's a cameo by a certain Professor at the end of the movie. When Stryker's compound is falling apart and Wolverine is leading young Emma Frost and Cyclops out of the building, Cyclops suddenly knows the way out. When they get to the door, standing there -- oh yes, standing -- is Charles Xavier, controlling wee Cyclops' mind like he'll be doing several billion more times in the future. He's apparently not played by Patrick Stewart, by the way. Weird.

Also: Despite what the trailer would have you believe, most of the other mutants are only cameos as well. Gambit only has about 10 minutes of screentime, for instance. Just like the Marvel Universe, it's Wolverine's show.

Finally, my tipster says the film isn't quite as good as X-Men Uno or Dos, but it's a hell of a lot better that X-3. That's pretty much what I was expecting. But I'm guessing a lot of you Deadpool fans might be more aghast at the Deadpool Debacle than you were by X-3's rampant stupidity.

Take this for what you will.

 

[CelticPredator]

Everyone thought that dude saying he had arm swords, and laser eyes was totally making ^^^^ up.

 

[lerath666]

why does fox think ^^^^ing things up is a good idea?
With ^^^^ this dumb, and x-3: Massive fail being what it was, I'm starting to think that Fox studios FORCED George lucas to include Jar Jar, and Midichlorians in the phantom menace.

In fact, I'm bloody well sure of it now.

 

[Jaycepticon]

Besides Sabretooth, I figured everybody else would just be a cameo. I wouldn't be surprised if Gambit's screentime is only the scene from the trailer extended to about 5-10 minutes

 

[Silent December]

I hope this movie bombs ala Punisher, fox lets go of the rights and Marvel reboots this whole frakken franchise ala Hulk. Or something along those lines.
