Reading the things I've posted on this and a couple other things are a little embarrassing, I come off way too hostile, I think I need to calm down a little bit before posting about movies.

Hyperbole plays a lot better in the context of humor. When you state your opinions using Hyperbole you start to sound like a *blech* teenager. And lets everyone be honest with ourselves. If half the shit we *knew* was true when we were young turned out to actually be true, we would be much better people. I actually really like the lyric "What made us think we were wise and we'd compromise", it conveys that especially well in a single line.
All that being said, Im looking forward to seeing this since like, oh say, Robin Hood, there has been more than a few interpretations, and I personally am more concerned about enjoying a movie than I am about it staying close to the source material. Except Deadpool in Wolverine: Orgins, creating a new character named after an old character with no resembling qualities is just plain dumb. Just inventing a new character with a new name would have been much better.

But..I am a *blech* teenager for the next 5 days. I've always had a problem with hyperbole and it's becoming a bigger deal because I need to start getting way past that phase.
And doesn't Deadpool in Wolverine have some of the same characteristics: loudmouth, excellent with guns...I thought the only change they made was that they cast Ryan Reynolds into the movie and we'll not talk about the end because that was horrid. But I thought him in the beginning was a little bit like Deadpool? Mind you I know next to nothing about Marvel.
Chesire Cat:
Wasnt there just one scene, and then he 'died' or was captured or whatever. Deadpool the comic book character had like 4 minutes screentime before he became Deadpool the Captain Planet of all the Xmen combined... only evil.

I just finally watched this movie and thoroughly enjoyed it. I completely regret skipping out on it the last time I went to the movies in favor of Avatar now. Maybe not the most subtle Sherlock Holmes movie that could've been made, but definitely one of the most entertaining. It captured the spirit of the books while keeping it fresh with modern action filmmaking.
Basically:
Fuck da haters.
