- I don't understand what the studio is waiting for. This movie needs to get made.

- If what you say is true, it makes me wonder how movies like The Crow, Hellboy, R.I.PD., and Cowboys and Aliens got made.

- I would argue with the assumption that Deadpool doesnt appeal to non deadpool folks... i wasnt necessarily a deadpool person until this latest run, but his comic, I would argue, is one of the best ones at this moment.

- In my opinion, if they are going to make a Deadpool movie it needs to be true Deadpool. Hard R, lots of 4th wall breaking, tons of violence. I stayed away from the game just because I didn't need another time sink but I would gladly watch a movie. RR as DP in the Wolverine Origins movie was pretty much my favorite part until they screwed it up in the end. He is the only actor I could see in the role as his spastic attitude just fits (thinking like Hannibal King from Blade Trinity).
Look, the people you are after are the people you depend on: we set up your computers, we deliver your email, we connect your calls, we backup your files, we guard your networks while you sleep. Do not %@&# with us. - paraphrased from Fight Club

- PRawlins,
You say that Deadpool doesn't make money and his comics do not sell well. Surely he is more marketable than the franchises I mentioned in my earlier post. And surely he sells more comics than R.I.P.D., Cowboys and Aliens and even Hellboy. You can visit your local Wal-Mart's t-shirt aisle and find Deadpool t- now along with Spider-Man, Batman, TMNT, etc. I feel that you may be underestimating his popularity. Making Iron Man with RDJ was a gamble and it paid off. Making Green Lantern with RR was a gamble and it flopped. I believe making a Deadpool film is worth the risk if the screenplay is excellent, the casting is spot on, and the director understands what the fans want.
