What Could Go Wrong In The Deadpool Movie

Hmm..This could be a pretty hard movie.
I've been thinking lately, and the upcoming deadpool movie isn't going to go well (Not like i had faith in fox on doing justice for Deadpool).

I made a list of what could go wrong in the Deadpool movie :

1) Breaking The Fourth Wall
I really think it will be hard for Deadpool to "Break the 4th wall" without the movie being a spoof movie. I mean like, if Deadpool kind of, know that his in a movie, and starts jumping scenes to scenes, or ripping apart the screen, it would end up just like Disaster Movie.

2) The Dialogue
I know Reynolds is awesome, and i know he can deliver great lines..
But the people who wrote X-men Origins : Wolverine just made cheesy lines after cheesy lines, and it really bothers me. Deadpool always cracks me up in the comics..So if the movie just keep shoving $hitty lines in to my @$$hole, i could just (frick)ing throw up.

3) The Origins
Oh man..Oh man...
If they messed up the origins..oh man !! And it's a simple origin at that.
Ryan Reyno...i meant, Wade Wilson, went to military, came back as a mercenary took someone's identity (which is Wade Wilson), got cancer, go to weapon x, they experimented on him, becomes Deadpool. FIN !!!

4) The Continuity
X-men Origins : Wolverine seriously ruined it for me, i mean..Sabretooth (frick)ing killed him. He was supposed to have been mutated with a healing factor, i mean, SERIOUSLY ! I don't want him being near the universe of X-MO Wolverine.

So yeah, that's what i think. It's really hard to think these things out y'know...so comment and thoughts are appreciated.

I've been saying for it awhile now, this movie should not be made right now.

Two MAJOR REASONS:

1) Marvel needs the rights to the character to be able to bring in the right cameos that Fox doesn't own.

2) Fabien Nicieza or Mike Benson should write the script. They have the most modern interpretations on the character that fans love.

My prediction for this Fox disaster:

- Hammy, campy dialogue
- Wrong supporting characters placed into the movie because the studio has the rights to them
- NEW origin because the old one isn't flashy enough
- DP gets turned into a hero

EPIC FAIL

Oh, and I'm sure they'll throw a 'magic bullet' in there somewhere

there's a lot of thing could go wrong and your wrong in one thing he didn't die at the end of wolverine he has the healing factor at the end so he still alive and has the mess up face.

Flydude - 10/24/2009, 8:46 PM
well alot of things like making him a zombie like in the wolverine movie and spoiling his suit and do i need to go on ?
legionbecks - 10/24/2009, 9:34 PM
and + he might be wolverine's other brother ;p.

Deadpool is one of the best characters in my opinion. His abilities, technologies, look, personality, weapons and overall interactions with other characters makes him a very likeable villian(if that). If you were to make a Deadpool movie it would also be a great chance to bring in some unseen characters AKA CABLE!!!. Time traveling would be a great way to unravel and rebuild peoples exsisting knowledge of the world they have built so far. However, its not like most of the movie makers really give a crap about fluidity of the story lines between films.

they should have him wanting to be in the xmen, i think it the easiest funniest way to go and could totally lead into a new xmen. have his original origins, say he's been in africa doing mercenary work and sees on tv about the xmen and decides he wants in. deadpool doing a really bad job at trying to become an xmen just makes me smile. don't know why

I'm going to toss my two cents in and see how it fares.
1. Breaking the fourth wall can be done fluidly and without being completely pathetic. Occasionally in the comics Deadpool gives this long winded origin story that combines those of so many other characters. That could be in the opening of the movie followed by him correcting himself and giving the brief story that actually his.
It could also be done by him saying something was five minutes ago, and it actually being so in the length of the movie but the scene referenced in story was days ago and just dropping the subject. If they don't overuse it and don't make the cheap fourth wall jokes it should be fine.
2. No actual argument, it would be great if they got the comic writers to do the screen play or at least handle all the major stuff.
3. Again no argument, but if they go to the original for his own movie I've got no complaints. The comics aren't even regularly consistent.
4. Yes Deadpool's head was cut off, but that's happened before, and he's still here.
So yeah, it's really only the first thing on that list I argue with.
For staying this long with my comment, go have a cookie, you've earned it.
Now to comment on the comments. (I'm an angry little troll aren't I)
For MultiPurposePoni's comment, more accurately his predictions, I can unfortunately see that happening too. The only part of it I'll mention is Deadpool being turned into a hero. He's sometimes trying to be a hero in the comics, so I can see that being in his character for the length of a movie, but he's never been a nice guy. So turning him into the nice hero would really get me irked.
I like the other comments with the exception of lvlheaded's.
In the comics he's really only trying to get into the X-men when he's having a psychotic episode (Yeah I know, common for him, be he is occasionally lucid), the rest of the time he just says he's one of the X-men, regardless of the couple times they put him in the group (For no reason I could ever actually see, other than a bet between Wolverine and Beast as to whether he would actually feel like he was part of the team, or throw up. . . He threw up. Just a little.) His feeling for the X-men group are always fluctuating so it would make for a fractured story line. Though it's only his personality that keeps him from being considered for the X-men. But I agree it was really funny to see him make a mess of being an X-man. (Now if I can only get the image of him in Marvel Girl's outfit out of my head.)
Thanks again for reading this, even more so if you read the whole thing. I don't mean to offend anyone I'm just putting my two cents in, but if I did, I'm sorry.

check this out, this is how deadpool's origin should be made (mike did a pretty good job explaining it, even tho it is very convoluted)

Did none of you stay after the credits on X-Men Origins? Deadpool didn't die. He is seen alive at the end of the credits. Yeah is head was cut off but he was still alive. And is it just me or was that not deadpool at all. Yeah Deadpool has the super healing factor but Laser Vision and Baraka Claws? C'mon that's another character all together and his name is Mimic.
SolidSnake007 - 11/4/2009, 11:00 AM
origins had a shitty deadpool...new deadpool better rock
Anil Rickly - 11/5/2009, 1:17 PM
Well actually I got the wolverine sitting in the bar after credit clip, so I never saw that. But I've seen Deadpool's head get cut off in the comics and he's come back from that. He's even come back from being nothing but a hand and a couple piles of goo, so I was confident that such a little thing couldn't stop him.
Nimbus - 11/8/2009, 9:33 PM
just hope he breaks the 4th wall
KillerOfSaints - 11/13/2009, 8:38 PM
sorry reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaly lazy today and could not be arsed reading all comments...but "deadpool" was not killed at the end of Wolvy origins....seek out the alternate ending involving the head and the "shhh" breaking the forth wall bit
number10 - 11/17/2009, 4:37 PM
I don't really get the Dudepeel hate.

If they have a coherent way of explaining how he got from point A (plain Wade) to point B (Barakapool) to point C (Deadpool), than what's the problem? It makes sense within the context of the story, so it's just as much of a legitimate origin story as the source material.
