Fox are at it again and have provided us all with another teaser trailer for next year's Deadpool; this time showcasing the fact that this baby's going to be presented in IMAX. It has a fantastically funny intro, as ever. The more I see of Deadpool, the more I think it's going to be everything fans always say they want from a faithful comic book adaptation - for better or worse. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOHNgnzqQdY That is one hell of a chimichanga. What are your excitement levels like? Do you think Ryan Reynolds and Tim Miller might have gone (dare I say it?) too far with the faithfulness of their adaptation? At this point, I could be concerned that the film feels a little cartoon-y, but I soon quash those worries for myself when I realise that, hey - Deadpool is a little cartoon-y. At the end of the day, Deadpool is going to be a lot of fun. Gory, swear-y, don't-watch-it-with-your-mum fun. What more could we ask for from a Deadpool adaptation? Sure, the inclusion of a random character like Colossus feels a little out of place, but random characters show up in Deadpool comics all the time. Remember that one where Dr. Bong turned up? It was funny as hell. I think that's what we're in store for here. Roll on February.
Deadpool is released 4th February 2016 in the UK and 16th February in the US.
