Should Ryan Reynolds play Deadpool or Green Latern in the movies?

Ryan Reynolds has already played Deadpool, therefore would make him an ideal choice for Deadpool in a solo movie. I personally don't know if he would be any good, but he's got the "role experience"Julianking93 said:
I researched Deadpool after the Wolverine movie came out. I haven't read the comic, but based on what I have read the is a good feature movie their. Even a series. HBO or mainstream movies would be fine. Really it boils down to the money willing to be thrown at it. A regular movie is fine. Ryan Reynolds would demand that higher paycheck. I also found his snarky ways to work well and be entertaining. HBO pobably couldn't afford him.djmegamike said:
Thanks for the personal validation on the actor I suggested. He is very good. He was an absolute favorite character in Serenity. Not just because he did a good job. But because it was a well written character. His talent as an actor amplified it. He was the antogonist. But at times his character bent over backwards to find a peacful resolution. When it became obvious that peace was not possible, he went hard core. This takes some range from the actor to make it work. ..."I am unarmed"..."good, BANG"..."just because I am unarmed doesn't mean I'm stupid"...
I think Ryan Reynolds should be limited to roles that make him look like a quick witted twat. He's the Tony Danza of our generation but with a little bit less personality.
That is true. The studios butchered the Deadpool character so much that I think the only thing they can do is call a mulligan and pretend it never happened. In otherwords, just pretend Deadpool in the movie was weapon 11, who the character was more like anyway. While HBO probably couldn't hire on Ryan I still think it would be a better choice due to the content of Deadpool. In the comics he pretty much is a delirious, split personality, dirty, skrewball who isn't good or bad (although now it looks like they are trying to lean him towards good and I like how it's being done) just a killer for hire (he was recently hired to fight and distract Spiderman so bad guys can do something behind his back). In fact, now that I think of it, he's pretty much Spiderman with different powers, a killing streak, and a foul mouth.
I agree, Nathan Fillion absolutely must become The Green Lantern.Asturiel said:
This pretty much proves why everyone, including me, say that Ryan Reynolds needs to right the wrongs done to Deadpool.Geektress656 said:

The only reason I can think of is that the studios might think people will have trouble separating the two very different characters. Can you imagine the same person playing Batman and Superman at the same time in theaters?
If you've read the comics you'll know that's a great deal of what he does. He's known as the Merc with a mouth, breaking the third wall one brick at a time.Spinwhiz said:
