There's a reason why this is being released in February.

I would be completely on board with them making the entire advertising campaign out to seem like it's a romantic comedy just to frick with people. That would be classic Deadpool, a great troll and in keeping with the spirit of Deadpool.

This kind of text is going to be common the next few weeks for couples making V-Day plans.

Yeah, because there is a dead period for the box office anymore.

The top 5 Valentine's Day Weekends:
1.Fifty Shades of Grey-85 mil
2.Hannibal-58 mil
3.Valentine's Day-56 mil
4.Ghost Rider-45 mil
5.Hitch-43 mil

Top 5 Non Love Valentines Day Weekends
1.Hannibal-59 mil
2.Ghost Rider-45 mil
3.Friday The 13th-40 mil
4.Daredevil-40 mil
5.Safe House-40 mil
6.Kingsman-36 mil(last year, made 128 mil domestic, and 400 world wide).


Its been reported that the budget for Deadpool is extraordinarily low(50ish mil). Even with marketing costs, it should be no less than around $100 million, and that should be beaten by the domestic total, and the world wide total should make it a nice profit.

an R rated comic movie featuring a character many aren't too familiar would have had tough sledding going up against summer blockbusters. This was the smarter move and not because its a terrible movie they're trying to hide.
