Wade "Van Wilder" Wilson


If you haven't already seen a leaked version of "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" or actually paid to see it in the theaters [like I did], it's undeniable that every comic geek was excited to see Deadpool, aka Wade Wilson, played by Ryan Reynolds. I'm not a Deadpool fan, but I can see the appeal as he's ultimately a ninja with mutant powers, a formula you really can't go wrong with. Well, it sounds like the "Merc With A Mouth" may spin-off into his own movie. I'm sure Ryan Reynolds' sex appeal, much like Hugh Jackman's, helped drive this thought to fruition. If they can turn Deadpool into the next "Blade" I'm all for it (by that I mean making a relatively lesser known character awesome). If they're looking to repeat the same campy tongue-in-cheek dialogue... I'll be saving my theater money for something else. You can read the full article here.
