Has anyone mentioned that he was the best thing about the Wolverine movie?

Don't blame Reynolds for the movie producers turning Deadpool into Baraka.

 
SphericalTime [TotalFark] 2009-07-11 02:03:21 PM  
Spatially_Challenged: Er.. For the 3 minutes of screen time that he actually had, he was the best part of that movie. Unless I saw a different movie.
FTFM


Agreed.

strahdd: Has anyone mentioned that he was the best thing about the Wolverine movie?

Nope. Go to it.

I don't think RR is the potential problem....

JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE would be a thousand times more gawdawful in that (or any) role, forcing me to admit I wouldn't go to see it in that case.

Justin Timberlake is unbelievable as anything but the role of untalented musical hack who got incredibly lucky due to America's conservative backlash against innovation and depth.

Ryan Reynolds is married to Scar Jo?! When did this happen?!?!

Guy Gardner is much better like this:

I could see Reynolds doing an ok job with Hal Jordan, but why the hell is he the focus of the headline? Justin Timberlake as any Green Lantern would be terrible.

Except Leezle Pon. Someone cast Justin Timberlake as Leezle Pon.

 
Kaybeck 2009-07-11 03:35:31 PM  
Ryan Reynolds has just been confirmed as Green Lantern. So glad Timberlake didn't get the part.

Abstruse: Ryan Reynolds is a cool guy and very geeky. He wants to do a Deadpool movie and he won't have anything to do with it unless it has no connection to the Wolverine movie and is done right.

I really like the guy and I hope he makes it. We need a good action hero again, and he could very well be this generation's Bruce Willis if he plays his cards right.


i'll probably get jumped and beat up but i'd compare him more to bruce campbell

He's got the bravado of Cmpbell and the hotwife like Willis once had. I'd say the bet of both worlds right there. Now if only we can cut off his hand nd attach a chainsaw.

You had to have read that comic to know why beetle busted out laughing and screaming "One punch AGAIN!" when Hal came back to Earth and wanted his title back. Good times.

So, wish list for other cast members:

Kyle Rayner? Needs a ridiculous pretty boy.
Sinestro? I vote Hugh Laurie
Ganthet? Anthony Hopkins
Guy Gardener? A hybrid Joe Pesci California surfer. Ideas escape me
Kilowog? Gotta be CGI. Give him Kevin Michael Richardson's voice
Despero? I would say Keith David's voice or Tony Todd's.
Gnort? I hope to fark they don't decide to go the Jar-Jar route and insert this lamebrain into it. Worked ok for the overexposure in the Batman-Brave and the Bold cartoon, but please producers, stay your hand on this one

Magruda: JosephFinn: And yeah, I know I'm probably never getting a Kyle movie, but that's the GL I want to see.

That's only because the people in charge now are the ones that grew up with Hal. Give it another generation and Hal will go the way of Alan Scott and Jay Garrick. Then the kids will complain that the new guy is not getting the movie.


Yeah, unfortunately, the guy running DC Editorial decided Hal Jordan and Barry Allen needed to come back to life, and the modern DC Universe had to be a lame-ass, decompressed rehash of the Silver Age, with none of the fun and 1000 times the angst and rape.

I can't wait until a new crop of writers gets around to killing off Barry Allen again in about a decade.

 
mongbiohazard 2009-07-12 02:49:56 AM  
Subby you feeling OK? Ryan Reynolds was probably the best part of the Wolverine movie. In fact I'd go so far as to say almost all of the actors in the Wolverine movie were fantastic - even for the characters no one ever gave a shiat about before (like Blob). Ryan Reynolds is actually the #1 perfect actor for playing Deadpool.

The SCRIPT was the problem with Wolverine.

 
DOW 2009-07-12 04:39:56 AM  
Reynolds was farking awesome in Wolverine. Headline FAIL.

 
brokenheadstuff 2009-07-12 06:40:33 AM  
yyrkoon: rynthetyn: Is it just me, or do Ryan Reynold's front teeth when he talks kind of make him look a little bit like a rodent? Don't get me wrong, it's an attractive rodent, but still, once I noticed it, that's all I see now.

If your guy your jealous, if your you a girl, you could never had, either way I would to see you ugly ass nappy picture. Btw what have you ever done with your life? please share...


---One thing rynthetyn did NOT do with his/her life was copy off of you in English class. An ocean of WD-40 & miles of duct-tape couldn't fix that first sentence of yours. FUBAR.

Shia LeBeouf. Kyle is a young goofy artist that is (well, was) thrown into a impossible situation beyond his understanding. Basically just take his character from Transformers and put it in there.

mooseyfate 2009-07-12 11:54:17 AM  
No, no, subby. We didn't think Ryan Reynolds was terrible in Wolverine. We thought Wolverine was terrible. Schrieber, Jackman, and Reynolds did what they could.

Ummm, subby, Ryan was probably the best part. They Farked Deadpool up at the end. You cannot blame that on Ryan.

That's actually a brilliant bit of casting.

I really don't care who gets the lead, I'm more curious about the script.

I'd worry more that they're getting a white guy rather than a black guy - that means they're doing Hal Jordan instead of Jon Stewart. Which means they're playing it oldschool.

Now, a certain measure of oldschool is fine, but if they go back before the '80s and ignore all the fun Green Lantern Corps stuff, then Hal Jordan will be just another dumb superhero. The cool part of Green Lantern is that he's part of an interstellar police force - the focus is on space travel, aliens, other planets, etc. I don't want to see Hal Jordan busting bank heists - I've already seen that movie.

I want Oa and Sinestro and Mogo and other Lanterns as characters, playing them like Old Republic Jedi.

So, I take it you're not a Geoff Johns fan?

Him, Bendis and Kirkman are the most reliably entertaining writers out there now IMHO.
