re: Deadpool to host SNL petition

The ironic thing about the marketing was that it was only effective on those who knew about Deadpool already and got the joke. The most important part of marketing is getting a brand or product known to those who otherwise wouldn't know about it and in that sense I think the marketing with the fake romantic billboards were a big failure.

Obviously the movie has been a phenomenal success but only because there has been a huge desire to see it made into a movie for many years and even Ryan Reynolds tried for 8 years to get it made. Not necessarily because of a marketing campaign that was really just inside jokes for fan boys and girls already in the know.

Not a single thing you've said here is even remotely a little bit correct other than Reynolds trying to get the movie made for 8 years. Seriously.
