It has surprised me no end that the Deadpool film with Ryan Reynolds is getting pretty darn good reviews. Chock full of language and images you don't ordinarily see in comic book adaptations, this has been a long time coming, spurred on by leaked CGI footage a year or two ago. Fans went nuts for it, and 20th Century Fox took a gamble.
So far it's paying off. Not so much for the Fantastic Four, though.
