    How about because the movie looks like it might be fun?

      To each their own. I like the idea of a super hero that’s in on the joke.

    You forget...people aren’t going to this film to see Ryan Reynolds. They’re going because GODDAMN DEADPOOL MOVIE. And they’re hoping it makes up for how Deadpool was mishandled in the 2009 Wolverine flick.

      For the record, everything was mishandled in Origins, and Last Stand, and some parts of X2.

      That’s why we got Days of Future Past, if you don’t like history send someone back in time to re-write it.*

      *except Star Trek, 1) it was unnessecary and 2) now because of JJ Abrams Jean Luc Picard may never become captain! Did ya think about that JJ? Did you think about Picard? Fucking Tasha Yar could be captain now!

      I’m sure Spock made sure to give his younger self a post-it saying something like:

      ‘Look up this clever French kid in 80 years - just make sure his heart gets ripped to sheds in a bar fight, or he’ll grow up to be a complete douche. Love, Me.’

    You forgot to mention that his previous marriage, to a woman who can act very well and is not boring, went up in flames like the Hindenburg.

      I totally forgot he was married to ScarJo! Went up in flames? How? Is there a gossip article I can read somewhere?

      Eh, that’s a matter of personal opinion. ScarJo’s pretty, but she’s a bland actress who’s lucky enough to be put in good movies. She’s also known for not being a very nice person in real life, so I’m sure they had their own dichotomy going on.

    My favorite movie by him is the one where he is buried in a coffin by terrorists who kidnapped him. It's just him in a box with a cell phone. It's actually tense and harrowing. It took a day or so to decompress after seeing it.

      Buried.

      I watched it at 4am after a really bad break up, stayed in bed for 48 hours and then was like “Ok, I’m good.”

      Yes! It’s called Buried, actually. I stumbled on that movie a few years back. Total nightmare fuel.

    For the majority of us who have been anticipating this film forever, we do not root for Ryan Reynolds, per se. We root for Deadpool, and accept Reynolds as a great choice for the character we know. And the movie looks VERY good, from a fan perspective.

    Sometimes it’s not about the lead at all.

    I don’t give a shit about Ryan Reynolds BUT I WILL WATCH (almost) ANY SUPERHERO MOVIE THEY THROW AT ME. I don’t even care if they are dumb. I don’t even care if the acting is sub-par. I wanna see some good guys fight some bad guys, preferably with a lot of flying-through-the-air acrobatic fight scenes. Bonus points for space-ships and/ or time travel.

    I will also watch a period drama just for the clothes. I am shallow like that.

      He was really funny on that show. Every Ryan Reynolds movie I’ve seen is because of that show. It’ll still take me through Deadpool, too.

    Unpopular opinion: I liked RIPD. I thought it was funny. It may not have been the best movie ever! but it was entertaining. I might be easy to please when it comes to moves though.

      I am not even ashamed of liking it. It’s basically Men In Black but with dead people instead of aliens and no obnoxious sequels.

      Samies. Also I think the reason why people are “rooting”for him is that he and the writers were working or trying to get this movie done for what 10 years.. and only after leaked footage did they really get the green light from the studio.

      I mean ~80% on Rotten Tomatoes, so pretty close to the other superhero movies in terms of critic ratings. Fans are gonna turn out in droves, too.
