re: The movie Deadpool, few questions:

Not at all. I have literally no idea how the comics are outside of what I have seen people talk about (on a very limit basis) on here. I'm saying that as a general moviegoer, who has no real knowledge of the comics or the character, that the movie was just okay. It tried too hard to be funny instead of just being funny, if that makes sense. And I get that that's almost exactly how the comic character is, it failed a bit for me. And that's not to say that I hated it or anything. It was pretty good, and funny at times. I just don't agree with the overwhelming adoration it gets (again, that's coming from someone completely unfamiliar with the comics). Does that make sense?

Makes sense, his books aren't liked for the same reason amongst comic fans as well. They did a good job of translating the book character to the movie and it naturally won't be a home run for the average movie goer because of that.
