What's the fascination with Bob Ross, anyway?

IDGI.

He daubs the canvas with swathes of [insert colour] for the chroma-key compositing. It's not like he's actually painting the picture.

Loved the trailer bits, though. Unlike every other superhero movie, it makes me want to watch the movie.

Err, whut? I mean, it's not the most intricate and advanced technique in the world, but he seems like he's doing something very much like painting to me. Canvas, paints, using paints to depict things - painting.

All of the videos I'd been linked to were the chroma-key "magic painting appears" segments.

I had to dig to find the actual painting stuff. Oh, an oil painter. So the techniques and stuff gamers are only just getting around to now with weathering ... old stuff that wasn't particularly groundbreaking even in the 90s.

We didn't get PBS stuff where I lived (not being in the USA and all) and I've never regarded watching an artist paint as being "entertaining" (the very definition of watching paint dry) so I've never been exposed to him.

That and I don't get the obsession with "retro" (I lived through the 70s-90s once, I don't need to do it again. Best part about the 70s was that I spent the first 6 years of it deaf).

Regarding his technique - it was a public TV show intended to demonstrate to total amateurs that anybody can paint with minimal effort, the value in it was in all the folk over the years who got their start "painting along" with him and went on to learn other stuff, or who just found a bit of joy making easy, reasonably nice looking landscapes.

And the thing about watching him now is less about retro and more about the whole run of his show going up on Twitch - people started watching it because the man is almost insufferably nice and his wee catch-phrases are funny(sometimes in a slightly sinister way - talking about "beating the devil out of it" in that sing-song nice old man cult leader voice when he cleans his brush... ), and kept watching it because it's almost hypnotically relaxing(stoners and insomniacs are particular fans ).

"Fascination" is really to strong of a word to describe it but he is fondly remembered by many because he was a nice guy and the show was light hearted fun. As Yodhrin pointed out the show wasn't aimed at advanced students nor professionals. In fact most people that did watch the show never painted but liked Bob and his calm, dulcet tone.

Bob Ross is a national treasure. He taught millions of people how to paint while entertaining them with his gentle voice.

Much like Deadpool in that trailer! Pretty excited.

He may be a "national treasure" but I don't belong to your nation - and I'm happy to keep it that way.

His voice put me to sleep.
The insufferably nice sounding voice makes me turn it off. It's so saccharine sweet that I'm liable to die from diabetic shock if I listen for too long.

Also, in a bit of related news, Ryan Reynolds has just been announced to be the voice of Pikachu in the Detective Pikachu movie. While I personally was a fan of the idea of casting Danny Devito in the role, this could be awesome. Particularly if any unofficial blooper reels manage to leak out.

Wow... And I don't mean in just a yay Deadpool way, I mean, like actually... wow.

I didn't know how they were going to do Cable really but it genuinely looks like they're playing him pretty straightly.

Which is, well, wow. It kinda means my fever dreams of Cable being the 'connective tissue' between the X-Men franchises could actually be a thing. Ok, sure, not likely exactly but still...

Like, I really do want Cable to walk up to Logan's Laura and say, "do you want to save your father? Do you want to fix this?" Then take her back to McAvoy's Academy.

If nothing else, the first money made feth tons of money. Disney likes money. They will let it go until it ceases to make so much money.

Yeah, Disney isn't going to mess with Deadpool at this point. And as much as I love him because of who he is he won't make a jump over to their primary timeline like ever so they'll leave him alone and let Ryan Renolds and friends rake in cash for them while having the time of their lives.

It’s also a cathartic way to skewer the genre. All the time Deadpool has things to take the piss out of, writers have something to bounce off to help avoid tropes.

At least, in theory!

Also, while it's not likely Deadpool will make the jump to the MCU, this will allow them to skewer the MCU with direct references if they wanted to and not be limited to poking fun specifically at the X Men movies or making vague references.

Let's be silly and assume they spent $116m on Marketing (they didn't but we're being silly). Still a metric ton of profit.

Generally Marketing is the budget over again.

But Ryan Reynolds had a producer role and a cut of the profits and he was pretty much the only person involved in the vast majority of the marketing. So while there was a lot of marketing in all those little videos they produced I would be really shocked if the marketing was actually more than the $58M and wouldn't be surprised if it was less. They wouldn't have had to pay RR to make all those little videos. They wouldn't have had to do any make up. The eyes were not CGIed to move on the mask in any of them. It's mostly just RR sitting in a single room for a single shot talking at people. Those vidoes could be done VERY cheaply inside of actual rooms instead of constructed sets.

But even if it was the 58M. So the movie cost 116M and made 783. Justice league cost almost 200 and barely made 300.

I don't think they spent much on Marketing. A lot of it just seemed to be Ryan Reynolds in the costume making jokes. They had a pretty tight budget for the movie. Tighter than that costume, for sure.

I am not so sure. Deadpool would be the most likely to hop in to the MCU. RR is pretty much the only person I can picture as Deadpool now so I doubt they would recast or reboot him. With the contracts for some of the major players ending soon, they may need to come up with a new comedy relief. Deadpool would fit right in.

I mostly just want a good Uncanny X-Force movie. I mean, we have Deadpool here, who is no stranger to jumping from universe to universe. Now we are getting Cable, his best buddy time traveling partner, also original X-Force member. These two could easily slip in to the MCU for a new arc, maybe Messiah Complex? X-23 has been on screen now, I am sure people liked her enough to want more. I can live with Disney retconning Logans death to bring him back with Hugh Jackman. Just give it to me!

The Deadpool film was such a labor of love on Reynold's part (he'd been trying to get that project green lit since Origins Wolverine) that I don't know I'd ever be willing to accept anyone else as the character. Even if they were good you just can't mimic the passion RR has when he plays Wade because its real and unlike Vin Diesel (who also manages to carry that kind of passion into his roles) Reynolds seems to have a real eye for what he's doing and how he's doing it.

Which are words I may well be eating. Who knows. Plenty of movies have looked great in trailer and then been bad, but its hard for me to be cynical about this movie. Confidence is just high here.

Not quite!

JL cost $300M (plus a LOT in marketing) and made $656M.

I doubt Deadpool's marketing costs were more than the original budget, so yes, by any measure it was an unqualified success.

I suspect Deadpool 2 will do just as well, if not better.

I hope Deadpool 2 has a better villain than the first. I don't know anything about the comics other than they're a part of the X men, but the first film mostly got by on charisma and 'rule of cool' and I really thought the main bad guy was by far the weakest part of the film (the same actor was also horrific in Game of Thrones so maybe it's just him?).

Or is Cable the bad guy? I only know him from the 90s X men cartoon so I'm not sure what his relationship to Deadpool is.

https://www.bleedingcool.com/2018/02/10/colossus-actor-talks-deadpool-2-and-confirms-shatterstar/


We got a second trailer for Deadpool 2 aka The Untitled Deadpool Sequel and there were a couple of moments that made fans sat up and took notice. While in the US trailer we couldn’t see him in the trailer Stefan Kapičić as Colossus does appear in a very brief scene. We see the two of them hugging and Deadpool copping a feel of Colosses’ butt because of course. Kapičić did an interview with Inverse and talked about the trailer and Colossus’ place in the story.

“I was surprised they put that in the trailer,” Kapičić says, laughing. “That’s the relationship between Deadpool and Colossus. Colossus is trying to make him a better person, to stop being childish. Stop doing crazy things. This scene we see in the trailer, that’s the picture of their relationship.”

Which is very true. Colossus made for an excellent “straight man” to Deadpool’s style of comedy. It made for some of the funniest moments in the movie and fans will be happy to hear that that dynamic hasn’t changed much.

“Deadpool is hard to change. Colossus is an old school superhero. He’s trying to make [Deadpool] a better man, an X-Man. But the thing is, Deadpool is doing his own thing.” Kapičić says this makes Colossus “nervous” in the sequel.



Fans were surprised by one scene in particular where Deadpool was surrounded by a bunch of people. They recognized Domino, played by Zazie Beetz, but there were other faces including what looked like Terry Crews as an unknown character and someone behind him that some thought looked like Shatterstar. In a move that Kapičić probably wasn’t supposed to reveal he says that we are seeing Terry Crews and the person behind him is indeed Shatterstar.

“That’s not CGI of Terry Crews, that is Terry Crews,” Kapičić says. “You can see it clearly.” Kapičić then follows up with a surprise: “You can see behind him, Shatterstar, a really cool thing for people to geek out.”

Did we get a look at the roster for that X-Force movie Fox is making? Crews could be playing the character G.W. Bridge who made his first appearence in X-Force (Vol. 1) #1 in 1991 and he’s a creation of Fabian Nicieza and Rob Liefeld. Shatterstar is also a Nicieza and Liefeld creation and has been on the X-Force team in the past. As for who is behind Domino we can’t tell

At the moment the reason we haven’t seen a lot of Colossus is that they’re still working on his special effects.

“Two days ago I was working for like, seven, eight hours a day with Ryan. We are still in the process of making it [as] perfect we can,” he says.

According to Kapičić, Colossus, who played a pretty minor role in the first film, will play a much larger role in the second film.

“Colossus is one of the most important characters, besides Deadpool and Cable, and you will see why,” Kapičić teases. “ Colossus is important for this story. People who love Colossus are going to be crazy. All these new characters, so many surprises in this trailer. This is just the beginning.”

We’ve probably just scratched the service of what The Untitled Deadpool Sequel has to offer. The movie comes out in May so we can expect the marketing to kick into overdrive any day now and we’ll no doubt see more footage before the release date.

Summary?: After surviving a near fatal bovine attack, a disfigured cafeteria chef (Wade Wilson) struggles to fulfill his dream of becoming Mayberry’s hottest bartender while also learning to cope with his lost sense of taste. Searching to regain his spice for life, as well as a flux capacitor, Wade must battle ninjas, the yakuza, and a pack of sexually aggressive canines, as he journeys around the world to discover the importance of family, friendship, and flavor – finding a new taste for adventure and earning the coveted coffee mug title of World’s Best Lover.

I am more leaning towards him being a "misunderstood and mysterious terrorist" who, once his motives are found out, is actually the good guy.

As far as his relationship to Deadpool goes:

Spoiler:
It has been awhile since I read them, so I may miss a few things. But basically Cable has a teleporting technology, as does Deadpool. Somehow they got messed up and Deadpool got liquified and his DNA was mixed in with Cables. Cable of course has the techno-organic virus from the future. So with Deadpool's DNA imprinted on the virus now, every time Cable uses his teleporter, it pulls Deadpool along with it. No matter where he is. Deadpool grows attached to Cable, even does some timey wimey lifey savey stuff to save an infant Cable. Something about Mr. Sinister. Then also some run ins with each other when Deadpool was running around in the future with Uncanny X-Force.

Entirely serious. It was bad dick jokes, gore effects and the constant drone of a really boring monologue. Though 'trying too hard' is pretty on point as well.
It clearly was written as a spoof of a character drama, but came off as the actor just reading lines in a bad suit, and a couple cardboard cut-out extras.

How did you get "profoundly bored" out of his performance? He was...invested in the character. I could see "unfunny" or "annoying" (though I disagree), but "profoundly bored" is a total non sequitur that makes it sound like you're talking about a different movie..or maybe smelling toast. I was just confused.

Yeah, it's hard to be objectively wrong when discussing entertainment preferences, but saying the guy who spent years trying to get a film made and did most of the marketing for said movie himself because he's so invested in the character and has so much fun playing him was "profoundly bored" is as close as you'll get.

Well, it was pretty spot on from the source. The bad suit was on point for the Deadpool suit and it is kind of Deadpool's thing to monologue constantly, especially during a fight sequence. Because you know, he is one of those special characters in Marvel that is allowed to break the fourth wall.

Knowing the source material would probably help. The only thing it was missing really were the yellow and white text boxes arguing with each other constantly. Which I am happy they ditched. Not because I hated them, but because it would be so difficult to implement in to a movie it would be easy to ruin it.

Edit: So, maybe some spoilers here for the next season of Daredevil. But is anybody else kinda sad.....

Spoiler:
that Deadpool is jumping straight to his Cable arcs and not staying with his solo stuff? Don't get me wrong. I love the Cable & Deadpool series. But after I saw the announcement that Typhoid Mary would be in the next season of Daredevil, I was sad that we would never get to see her arc in the original Deadpool run. It was certainly interesting how it played out and in the end, it was a very very sad arc. Also, needs more Taskmaster, but that is a different issue.

Huh. Thanks, Voss. Today I learned that it is possible to have a wrong opinion on the internet! Everything you just said is completely untrue, Reynolds worked with the creators of Deadpool to make sure the character was top notch, he invested years into this project, and busted his ass to make sure we got the Deadpool film series we deserve. If you don’t like the character, then all power to you. But it was a VERY good adaptation of the source material. Were there minor changes? Yeah. Bob should be in HYDRA, Ajax should be working for Dr. Killbrew (not being in charge himself), and Weasel should be the weapons guy, not the bartender (Patch). And leaving out the Hellhouse crew in exchange for no-names wasn’t necessary. But those are nitpicks. Minor things that might even over complicate the movie for casual moviegoers. This film? This film was alexcellent. And the second will be too. Because they are projects of love by the people working on them.

Did you not know anything about Deadpool before seeing this one? Because that is pretty much Deadpool's schtick- he frequently mocks himself/the genre/the writers/etc. I can see how if this was your first exposure to DP, you wouldn't like it (DP is not for everyone!), but it was very true to the source and definitely a labor of love for Reynolds.

Just a guy it seems. Deadpool has a revolving door of normie sidekicks like Weasel, Bob, and Blind Al. Probably just a new one for his Norm's Gallery?

Left me totally cold.
And was pretty much the first time I've not found RR funny as DP.

Guess I hate the song, care nothing for the singer and thought the DP angle was straining the otherwise kind of acceptable DP level of trying too hard ...


Deadpool 2  @ 2018/05/07 10:50:57


Post by: Compel


I'm going to agree to disagree.

I feel they did that perfectly. The thing I always worry about when Deadpool comes up, is them diminishing the others around them but this is a great example of them avoiding that. - The song is essentially taking one hundred percent 'real' and seriously, the same as any other song with Celine Dion. And then you add Deadpool, who does Deadpool-ey things but everyone else is still acting pretty legitimately.

Thumbs up.


Deadpool 2  @ 2018/05/07 10:53:55

I can agree with that. It's hard to do the things Dead Pool does while coming off as charming rather than demeaning and Ryan Reynolds gets it even if I can agree his delivery in the video feels a little phoned in.

DP2 is going full troll and going for an Oscar as a superhero movie. They got a famous, Oscar winning artist to sing a beautiful, original song in a movie genre that has historically been snubbed by the Oscars. On top of that, it is for a movie about maybe one of the least classy comic character to ever live.

This whole thing is beautiful genius.

First reactions:

It's.. okay. It's the same tone as the first, and it ratchets up a lot of the humour (and there are some genius comic moments at times - one post-credit sequence drew a cheer from the audience) but I think the plot is a little bit disjointed, although it just about works in the end.

I really enjoyed it. The meta-humour felt a bit less forced than the original, and I liked how the movie was able to switch tone. That's always been the appeal of Deadpool to me--that yes, you've got the goofy jokester, but it'd get old quick if that was all there was to him. There's a tragic and oddly inspiring edge to the character in how he keeps trying to be a hero despite the fact that he's naturally terrible at it, and recognising that stops this from being the superhero equivalent of Scary Movie.

Explicit in the spoiler tags, read at your own risk:

Spoiler:
Not Exactly. Domino survives the film, and at least one other (eventually, remember there's a time travel device in play).

But other than that they all die in the space of about 5 minutes from the parachute jump landing. Bedlam lands directly into the front of an oncoming bus. Shatterstar lands in helicopter rotor blades. The Vanisher hits a power line. Zeitgeist lands feetfirst into a woodchipper. Peter lands successfully but then goes to help Zeitgeist and is melted from his venom spit.

Yes it was Brad Pitt, and the two Rednecks when Cable time travels are Alan Tudyk and Matt Damon.

I enjoyed the movie alot, felt on par with the first one to me, and thats a good thing. Good humor, good action.

Just came back from it. I liked it, but didn't love it. It was a high bar to clear, though.

Spoiler:
Domino was great.

The way the X-Force lineup shook out was terrific.

I thought Juggernaut was perfect and am super happy he was finally done justice. That being said, it kind of looks like he was in a special mutant prison? He's not a mutant. I guess they never show him wearing a collar, though.

Cable was better than expected, but that was a low bar since I think the Cable character is super lame.

I like how they wrapped things up in the last 2 min.

Also, glad to see someone said that was Adam Tudyk - I thought that was him! I didn't recognize Matt Damon, though. I already knew the Brad Pitt story.

Post by: sebster


I saw it last night and I loved it. The jokes were bigger and crazier, and I think the comedy worked better than the first movie because this time Deadpool's madcap energy was imbued throughout the anarchic series of events we saw play out on screen. The first film was really fun, but it was basically Deadpool saying and doing some zany stuff while a fairly run of the mill superhero plot moved from scene to scene. This time Deadpool's anarchy spilled out in to everything around him, and it was glorious.

What's really impressive though, is it didn't result in a film that was just irony, or silly for the sake of silly. Despite all the anarchy it still worked as a superhero movie, better than most superhero movies. The plot moved at a good pace, they never lingered on any joke so long that the story lost momentum. The action scenes were really well done, fast and really brutal. Everyone's character motivations made perfect sense.

I honestly believe this is pretty close to a perfect realisation of the concept. People don't have to like it, of course, but if they don't it is because it isn't the kind of movie for them.

This one comes out of left field.

I'm not sure why this happened, but after I watched the Domino-centric trailer with LL Cool J soundtrack, for some reason my brain has replaced that song with "Insane in the Membrane" from Cypress Hill. Maybe it's Domino's comically poofy afro that somehow got correlated in my mind with the lead rapper of Cypress Hill. I dunno. What is really odd is that it almost fits the trailer just as well as the LL Cool J song.

Saw it yesterday. Liked it, but a little let down. There's not really a shortage of great jokes, but I felt like they didn't really take advantage of the potential to mock Cable and notably Shatterstar. Brolin makes a great Cable but he feels like he's playing him in an X-Men movie more than a Deadpool one. Still, a ton of good and absolutely worth seeing, but it didn't quite soar for me quite like the original.
