Just got back from the movie, was somehow funnier and better than I expected. VERY good movie, oh, and that post credits scene!
Boxoffice.com is predicting $93M over the 4-day weekend, which would probably mean a Fri-Sun in the high 70s-low 80s if they are in the right ballpark.
The 60-65M tracking seems to be on the conservative side.
With $12M on a Wednesday, this weekend will also be big overseas.

Much better than I expected.
Once you settle in and accept what the movie is its a lot of fun.
Excited for the sequel based on what we know.

I don't have any money to see this anyway, but I'm curious.
How would someone who finds Deadpool in other stuff unfunny? I haven't read any of his comics, but I've seen him from various comic scans that you people post, various fan films, X-Men Origins, Hulk vs Wolverine, and scenes from the game, but I found him the most unfunny motherfucker and wonder why he became so mainstream popular before this shit even came out.

edit: Okay I guess everyone is posting spoilers now... time to bail out.
edit #2:
Okay, I trust you. Still bailing out though because I'm about to hit the sack and I won't see the movie this weekend. Glad to see the positive reactions though.

I really think they undershot estimates lines were full for every showing my theater had.
Also, soooo many little kids.

Way better than I expected! One question,
the movie I said mentioned Jacksonville. Which is where I live. Is that in everyone's version or did they shoot a different scene for every city? I've never heard Jacksonville in a movie before haha.

I cannot recall a time that I've laughed harder in a movie theater. The place was packed and people were loosing it.
I think the implication was that Marvel Studios doesn't need to be at the helm in order to get their characters right.
Correct.

Enjoyed this a lot more than I expected to. I thought the trailers were trying a bit too hard, and occasionally the movie does go *there* but overall, the character is so fresh and is nailed so perfectly in the writing and performance, that it's perfect.
It even has a nice little romance subplot going on--a believable one, even if it is maybe diminished in the last third.
I think I'll see it again in theatres.

I posted in the wrong thread.
Go see this shit ASAP, GAF. Best Marvel movie to date and it's not really even close.

Movie was utterly dope. Unbelievable. I literally cried from laughter. They actually did Deadpool's character total justice and pulled off a great origin story and love story to boot. I need to see this again, immediately. Chris Stuckmann's (spoiler-free) review was totally on the money.

Well that was a fun-ass movie. Got out of this with my brother. Theater was 70% full but it was an energetic crowd and the movie was getting huge laughs and people clapped at the end. The self-referential stuff was my favorite. The post credits stingers were fun as well. Looking forward to owning this on Blu-Ray.

Just got back, loved it. Congrats to Ryan Reynolds, finally knocked one out of the park, it will make bank.
Same in my cinema. The part when
Deadpool kept breaking his limbs had the entire theater in histerics. Holy shit.
And yes, I haven't laughed this hard watching a movie in a long time. You know if Disney had the rights to Deadpool and the X-Men they wouldn't had made a movie as raunchy and profane as this, so yeah Fox you can keep the rights to the X-Men, well played.

Even though I'm not a Deadpool guy, I have no problem acknowledging that this is probably one of the best superhero films made
It FUCKING NAILS it
It's weird, because it's not an amazing film but it's a perfect comic film in almost everyway

Marvel has creative control on their films. Certain standards have to met with the Marvel movies. There are required tie-ins with other films and they can't be standalone, for one example. Deadpool feels like a response to those mandates.
Just got home from seeing it, easily in my top 3 superhero films. My girlfriend loved it as well and she hates comic book movies and didn't understand a lot of the references. Excited for Deadpool 2 with a bigger budget. Saw it in Battery Park at 950 and it was packed, crowd was really into it as well 👍👍👍

Brilliant film, they maybe showed too much in the trailers...but it was still great.
That 1st leaked trailer really spooked me with how lame it seemed, but the movie avoided that and hit a home run.
Loves the end credits scene too, it was 100% what I was expecting a Deadpool stinger to be.
Also, I saw it in Thailand and only a few of the pop culture references missed the mark with the packed theatre. So that's damn good writing when you can hit a foreign audience with those kind of jokes.
Also to note, my gf downloaded a Wham! album last night. :/

It's not the best superhero or Marvel film, but it's a damn solid movie. I recommend it easily.

just came back from watching this with a co-worker, and omg such a great movie! the whole theatre was laughing and same goes for me. definitely will see it again if I can.
for the poster who was asking about the Jacksonville thing; nope, I watched it in LA and it also said Jacksonville.

Given the money this one is projecting to make at this point, I'd be shocked if the "Deadpool is separate from the X-Men" thing keeps up.
