DEADPOOL is proof that when you LISTEN TO THE FANS, it works.


Deadpool made more than ALL X-men movies at the box office despite the R rating, no release in China, no 3D, small budget for marketing, a character that is not as popular as ex. batman, Superman, Cap, Spiderman...

Ghostbusters 2016 is a failure and an insult to all the fans.

I hope you guys all boycott!!

'Deadpool' accumulated fans' love for years before it was even announced. It is not exactly a good example.

Nope, when it was rumored to be PG13, EVERYONE wanted to boycott and bashed the film, i was on that board the whole time.

Deadpool: This is confusing. Is it sexist to hit you? Is it more sexist to not hit you? I mean, the line gets real... blurry! [cocks gun]

reply

No, it's because it's a really well made, and incredibly well marketed movie. The fact that it's a comedy appealed to everyone also.

reply

wow none of the above applies to this remake, even the "comedy" part is debatable 

The film was rumored to be PG13 and fans were pissed, they changed it back to R rating and fans supported the film with their money!!

Deadpool was juvenile, crass... not a good film, did not show great film making. It did not show great story telling.. the story was brain dead, the dialogue was obscene... and the characters were demented and unrealistic, unrelateable. It was a gore fest for those who wanted to be simple... simple minded, and watch some soft porno, and listen to trailer trash dialogue...

The movie was crap... over rated crap appealing to the lowest common denominator with the emotional, intellectual maturity of a 15 year old who would go and relentlessly hate a ghost busters trailer and attack the actresses involved personally to the point where they had to go public about the amount of hate mail they received...

Deadpool was garbage...

The buthurt is strong with this one.

In other words, it shows fans like being pandered to like Mommy's special snowflake. That's the state of fandoms and geek culture today.

reply

Isn't that what Feig and Pascal were doing with this misandrist SJW movie?

REAL ghosbusters fans would not see this disgrace of a cash grab. it's a mockery to call this GARBAGE ghostbusters. propaganda to satisfy the pure cancer called swjs and feminazis

reply

You know, the whole point of the original movie is that the guys used ghost busting as a cash grab. Why is it OK there and suddenly so offensive here?

reply

it is offensive of how TRASH they are treating the name ghostbusters with it's BAD LOUD SLAPSTICK 'Humor", PISS POOR cgi and many more problems. they are making this seem like a snl skit. they made leslie jones character the stereotypical black woman. like who thinks that is ok or funny? i know the greedy dumbass idiots of hollywood who can't come up with something original so they have to ruin a movie name with a reboot/remake.

reply

You mean like they have been doing for 30-40 years now?

The hate for this movie is still surreal...

reply

Not sure what that has to do with what I said. And btw, Winston, the black, guy, was the religious one. That's stereotypical too. Stereotypical isn't always some evil thing. It's just shorthand. And the original had some slapstick moments, and the reboot doesn't have as many as people assumed. Chill.

reply

Err... no it's not. Winston was the most grounded character out of all the Ghostbuters. Saying that he's stereotypical because he's religious is dumb, because every race has people that are religious. Also Winston lived in a world where ghosts and god-like creatures exist, so denying God but accepting the supernatural is a contradiction. Winston seems to be the only character with actual common sense in these movies. That's not stereotypical at all.

reply

The original had bad loud slapstick humor also. It didn't have bad CGI because there wasn't really any CGI to speak of, but it did have some bad puppetry and rotoscoping. Ernie Hudson was as much of a stereotypical black man as Jones is the black woman.

Oh, and there haven't been too many original ideas in Hollywood for decades. It didn't just start yesterday. Do you know how many Invasions of the Body Snatchers there have been? Or Islands of Dr. Moreau? Or Alices in Wonderland? Or Tarzans? Or variations of anything Shakespeare wrote? There are no original ideas. There are universal stories that are retold in different ways over and over again. Why? Because universality=success.

Don't try and hide your hate behind poor reasons, when it's clear exactly why you're so upset.

Well said, old chap! Well said!

How many of the people that went to see it in cinema's do you think actually read the comics though?
It's not that popular of a character. It clearly appealed to people that don't know about the character cause of how good it looked, and is. People would've just went to see it cause that was the super popular movie at the time. The heroes of that movie were the writers, and the marketing department.

reply

Deadpool was pretty popular even before the movie. Well, popular in the sense that Deadpool is more popular than Iron Man and The Avengers were before any of those characters even got a movie. Even years before the film Deadpool was even greenlit, a lot of people in my neighborhood worn Deadpool T-shirts more than any other superhero, and my nephew even saw a bunch of Deadpool merchandising at Universal Studios in Orlando. Not to mention, you had viral videos like these that helped with Deadpool's popularity... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzhJixCzOc4

When Deadpool was rumored to be PG13, the fans were pissed though and wanted to boycott. Then they confirmed the R and the fans did a 180°, so did i.
