This sucks, Deadpool got banned in China so that is a big box office hit for them.

It's especially bad as this is a pretty big risk for them and already gave them a low budget so they can do what they want and make the film R-rated.

Movie looks like garbage so no big loss.

 

[El Argentino]

Have to say I agree. The more that's come out promoting it, the more try-hard it feels.

 

[RFX45]

That's not the point, this will discourage the studios to green lighting any r-rated cbms.

They had a surprise screening tonight in NY and LA and twitter response seems good but that doesn't really tell us much.

Holy chimichanga! Deadpool was phenomenal!!! Such a great job, well done guys!! #Deadpool #DeadpoolMovie @ROBLIEFELD

Gregg Katzman @GreggKatzman

This #deadpool fan's happy. Really fun movie. Overall plot's standard, but consistently strong comedy, fan service & action overshadow that.

Rachel Howard @racheljhoward

And like all marvel movies, make sure you wait for the tag at the end of the credits! Self aware and referential, perfect Deadpool.

[Jr Mouse]

Well if @RyanReynoldsTv liked it then you know it has to be good.

 

[RFX45]

Like I said that doesn't tell us much especially when some chick says it's the best movie she's ever seen.

 

[Jr Mouse]

Regarding R rated cbm, I see where you are trying to come from but it's not going to make a big difference either way. Hollywood is to scared of possible low tickets sales to invest in many mainstream R movies these days. Let alone comic book based ones. I'd love to get more, but I don't see supporting slop like this as the key to make that happen.

 

[RFX45]

But again you are judging base on trailers (like usual even though majority of people and cb fans love) but the film has a good chance to be good (no interference from producers) and fun (its Deadpool) and if this r-rated film succeeds then that'll give confidence for studios to take risks and we may get more Kick-Ass instead of pg rated Wolverine films.

This kind of "slop" is exactly the key that could open that door if it succeeds. Low budget and r-rated without limitation. Everyone should wish this becomes a huge success just for the chance alone of seeing other r-rated cbms.

As you know, writer and director Kevin Smith will be hosting The CW event DC Films Present: Dawn of the Justice League alongside DC Comics' CCO, Geoff Johns. On the latest episode of Kevin Smith's popular podcast, Fat Man on Batman, Smith talked about what exactly we'll be seeing this Tuesday night. "They show footage, new footage of Batman v Superman," said Smith. "They show footage from the Wonder Woman movie that they're shooting right now, which includes shots of Wonder Woman in action doing some **** you've never seen before. Then the whole f**king thing wraps up with the debut of the Suicide Squad trailer."

Kevin Smith is one of the very few people to have seen the new Suicide Squad trailer and during the episode he gave his thoughts on how David Ayer's new Suicide Squad film might surprise us. "I think this is their Guardians of the Galaxy. It's going to be a sneak f**king stealth hit."

I'll admit, I thought Guardians of the Galaxy looked like it would suck hard, (Vin Diesel as a CGI tree!) but it turned out to be pleasantly watchable. If Suicide Squad can pull off a similar feat, despite the utter awfulness of what we've seen so far of Jared Leto's Joker, I'll be happy.


And I still think Deadpool could be decent...

 

[Suntory]

Take a break from the nerd talk, you deserve it.

 

[RFX45]

First look at Cyborg and Flash concepts

WB has also confirmed the artwork

GoTG had me sold from trailer 1. The humor and general tone of what they presented was near perfect. I wish Deadpool was giving me the same vibe, but unfortunately it's been a dud so far other then some good viral marketing they put out.

Interesting no GL in that JL pic.

Interesting no GL in that JL pic.

I noticed that too. It's strange enough seeing Cyborg everywhere instead of Martian Manhunter, but leaving out GL is just odd.
