   Man, that accent was rough…

   I swear, at times it was swinging between Irish and South African.

   Aside from that, the marketing for this film has been excellent.

      Our accent is a tough nut to crack. Though I reckon Nicholas Hoult did alright in Fury Road.

      Yeah, not often you find an American with a believable Aussie accent. Still, doesn’t matter much here, not really the point with Deadpool poking fun and all.

      On a side note, worst imitated Aussie accent – the policeman at the end of Point Break when Swayze is paddling out to his doom at Bells Beach.

      In this case I’m not sure it’s meant to be accurate, though I agree that it’s doubtful he’d be able to do a convincing one.

      I actually figured it was like someone putting on a thick fake Indian accent in conversation while being borderline racist, it’s meant to be a poor impression without any thought for the culture behind.

      And unrelated to your point, we started the whole “shrimp on the barbie” thing, we can’t keep blaming Americans for saying it.

      Though again I have the feeling the makers of this knew precisely that we don’t say that 😛

         In 2009 he said he didn’t play video games and insinuated they were a waste of time. That’s his opinion which is fine. I enjoy games and think they are more then that, while also some being fun to waste time, that’s mine. Thought I’d take the high road and not boycott movies, but only anything Ryan Reynolds is in. Which 90% of the time they aren’t movies I’d watch anyway *Romantic Comedies*.

         Last movie would have been X-Men Origins: Wolverine, which was released the same year and already had me pretty dark.

            that’s pretty fun that you’d boycott someone over their opinion of something minor like video games (unless you work in the industry)

            “thought I’d take the high road and not boycott movies”

            … you actually contemplated boycotting movies entirely… because one actor said they didn’t like video games?

            honestly that sounds petty and idiotic. Oh noes someone doesnt enjoy something I like doing with my spare time!

            If it was something along the lines of he thinks the Nazi’s had some great ideas, and that ISIS is the greatest thing to happen to the world since the 1940’s then yea I could understand boycotting him… but over video games?

      For some reason, I believe this movie has incredible potential. I think the script and the direction has a lot to do with how Ryan Renolds performs. I think this is the character he was born to play.

      He isn’t exactly funny, he is hiding pain. He is transforming pain and misery into hope by killing lots of bad guys.

      I love Vin Diesel’s (portrayal of) Riddick , but I don’t much like him in most other characters.

            Yes. I liked it. what’s wrong?
            (I meant Riddick the character, not the 3rd movie, the first 2 movies blew me away) Pitch Black is one of my go to, Die Hard type movies.

         Eh, looking at those situations though, he was the least of the issues in Green Lantern and Wolverine. GL he was just purely miscast, DC shat the bed in EVERY single respect with that film. Not one single thing came together properly there, it was a total clusterf***. And Wolverine… wow. Where to start…

               Yep, Reynolds has nothing good to say about that movie, he ESPECIALLY has nothing good to say about Wesley Snipes, he hated working with him on that.

            The fact he agrees to do those movies tells me that while he means well, he either needs to have a new agent or he doesn’t know a good script from a bad one. And it’s not only comic book movies. Though that buried movie was decent

   I saw a trailer for this movie before the Hateful Eight (which was brilliant).

   It looks like 2 hours of cheesy, try-hard always-on comedy with “edgy” over the top violence. Kinda like Jim Carey playing Mask but set over an entire superhero film.
   I’ve been wrong about trailers before, but it looked f*cking awful.
