Amph Deadpool, the (Golden Globe-nominated) Movies!

Honestly a PG-13 rating could work better for the comedy. Imagine Deadpool decapitates someone and he pauses the movie to explain the ratings and resumes the movie only for everyone to bleed unicorn rainbows or something

 

LOL, I am not really a fan of the character but Reynolds is spot on perfect, I'm looking forward to seeing this.

 

Yeah, that needs to happen. The flipside is that, even if bits like that are pulled to perfection, they may fall flat on general audiences that don't know the character and won't appreciate that kind of humour. Verily, making this movie well be challenging. It will be either fantastically awesome...or the kind of disaster that may be inevitably dumped on the late winter wasteland release window.

BAM!

 

She's Vanessa Carlyle/Copycat, then? Good choice!

 

It doesn't say, but that's a good guess.

Is there any chance they'd make her Domino? Because I'd plotz...

 

Well, if it's based on the old script (and things like Colossus being cast seem to point that way) then yes, Vanessa Carlyle is the main female character.

 

*Does the Morena Baccarin in anything makes me happy dance*

Haven't seen the V remake but I'm seriously considering watching the whole thing because she's in it.

 

Uh, yeah... let's not get crazy there or anything... that show, yeah, wasn't... wasn't good...

 

Oh, and...

From a certain point of view, Vanessa is the original Domino. So, kind of.

 

From what I heard from multiple sources, yes. But it has space aliens and Morena Baccarin in it, it'd be hard for me to 100% detest the experience. Only 2 seasons, maybe sometime in the summer.

I remember the promos for the show where her face would pop up and she's promise to tell humanity various secrets, the only reason that sticks out to me was I was at a Canadian Football League game and during an ad break her face popped up on the screen at the stadium and she said in her seductively Morena Baccarin way "We will teach you the secrets of winning the Grey Cup", which is downright odd because they had her cut a promo specifically for CFL games (V aired on Canadian TV same place where CFL Grey cup was broadcast so probably some marketing synergy there.) Admittedly, I was more than a few beers into the game by that point but that is a fourth-wall shattering promo Baccarin thingie that happened!

One other odd thing is she has been scheduled for the Toronto Comic Con this year, and she had been scheduled, no exaggeration, like practically every one for the past 3 years. Always cancelled. Even saw her apologize for it on twitter once, just scheduling getting in the way for something. Once again, she's supposed to be at it for 2015.

In March.

..... and the Hollywood Reporter article reveals that Deadpool starts shooting in March....

Sigh. Probably 4th cancellation coming. Gal's busy workin, though, can't fault her for that! I even like her in Homeland and the character was kinda awkwardly written and she's even good in Gotham and the character is barely written, but she's good enough to add some flair to anything.

 

You know what I mean!!!

No, don't read into anything. TV shoots should finish in ... April-ish and the Deadpool shot will be going for at least a couple of months. There's no reason it can't be worked out, considering she's not a regular on Gotham. I can also personally vouch that there's a wonderful Cathay Pacific non-stop JFK/YVR every day too.

 

Morena Baccarin follow up. She had to cancel Toronto comic con, yet again. 4th time, I believe.

flat-out has an apology this time too. "She did her absolute best to work around her Deadpool filming schedule. She understands that she’s missed the last few shows and is very sorry she won’t be here to meet you all. We wish her the best and look forward to seeing her on the big screen (and hopefully soon at Fan Expo)!"

Well, at least she's in Deadpool (and I was working that weekend anyway). Popular lady!

 

Well she missed it because she's apparently playing Copycat!

Gotta admit to a fairly null knowledge of this character but if it lets her be a bunch of different types of roles it could be a blast to watch. That would make a good foil for Wade if his companion keeps turning into different people and stealing their powers.

 

Already done by Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

 

Ahahahahahahahha...

No bears were harmed in the making of this photo. Though many bears likely turned on.

 

I just saw that a few minutes ago and nearly fell out of my work chair laughing. If the actual movie is half as funny as the test footage and this image, a complete win. Although I hope it's twice as funny. (Yeah, maths...)

 

That is a fantastic costume.

 

Just for your own eye bleach, did you see the Burt Reynolds pic he based that off of?

 

Of course.

 

I noticed Deadpool's eye is "squinting" in the photo (or winking), which is actually a huge aspect of how the character conveys emotions behind the mask (big white eyes = surprise, squint = intensity). These are examples I could find online. Googled "Deadpool quizzical". Kinda gets the point across.





It's kind of like how in Spider-Man comics the "eyes" of the suit change depending on the emotion of the particular panel. Now, we've seen Spider-Man with the same type of eyes in movies but they haven't moved.

However, Deadpool is a character whose emotions play on the surface, which is quite hard to do since he's behind a mask and all. But it's a HUGE aspect of the character. does that mean his eyes will be emotive (ala the "squint") in that photo throughout the film? How the hell do they pull that off? Is it a practical FX or will there be CGI trickery to make him emote? Or is the "wink" just some digital manipulation they pulled off for that photo? Or will one of deadpool's eyes be squinting the whole time?
