If this movie is made, I wonder who else from the Deadpool mythos would make an appearance...

Agent X, maybe? Weasel? Bob, Agent of Hydra? Cable is a no-go, obviously, even though he and Deadpool have been pretty much joined at the hip lately. I'd certainly be down for seeing Taskmaster make an appearance, though.

zombieland writers???...YESSSSSSS..we approve of this...and R. Reynolds is the PERFECT man 4 the role...awesomeness in a can...

 

[Yoshi-Pop]

This is gonna be FUCKING EPIC. Even if Rodriguez passes it up. They've got the guys who wrote Zombieland(one of my all-time favorite movies) doing the script. Barring catastrophe or studio voodoo meddling(like a forcing the movie to be PG-13) this is gonna be a seriously awesome blood soaked romp through fields of awesome.

This just.....guys, I think I'm in love

Please let him take the job. Please please please please please.

Deadpool is awesome, dispite being a rip off.

...What?

Please, please don't say Deadpool is a rip-off of Deathstroke. There's more similarities between Deathstroke and Captain America than Deathstroke and Deadpool.

I say if Rodriguez takes the job and does make this movie, It should be good. I approve. Who do you think would make a good Deadpool? Dane Cook?

I literally laughed out loud.

I think Reynolds did a good job playing the character, its not his fault the script was bad.

I have high hopes for this film.

Deadpool is a parody of deathstroke not a rip off.

Do it do it do it do it do it do it do it DO IT!

Fox can not wreck Deadpool! You furked up Wolverine and the Dark Phoenix Saga, you can not furk up Deadpool! I'm getting far too hyped about this for you guys to furk it up! Ryan Reynolds, Zombieland, Deadpool, and the guy who did the gore of Predators all in one place should be a great combination, so don't you dare furk it up, Fox!

Yeah, Deadpool was a parody of Deathstroke. Marvel was pretty open about that.

hopefully they dont fuck up like in X-Men Origins wolverine (the movie, not the book ,he rocked in that).

 

[Felgy76]

The potential here is astounding, sadly it could go either way. I'm a firm believer in 'Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.'

Parody =/= Ripoff.

Deadpool was created to make fun of the ambiguity of heroes of the 90's. While yes, Deadpool has many attributes that Deathstroke has, Deadpool is more a parody of a generic character cliche than an actual character.
