How Deadpool managed to sneak in a Marvel Studios character

February 18, 2016 by Gary Collinson

Among the many Easter eggs in 20th Century Fox’s Deadpool movie was an appearance from Bob, a buddy of Wade Wilson’s who is better known to comic book fans as Bob, Agent of Hydra. The cameo was interesting, given that the rights to Hydra – and to Hydra Bob – belong to Marvel Studios, and […]

James Gunn says Hollywood will misunderstand Deadpool’s success

February 17, 2016 by Robert Kojder

In  the middle of Deadpool crushing all expectations at the box office, we have Guardians of the Galaxy series director James Gunn taking to his consistently opinionated Facebook page to express concern that Hollywood just won’t realize why Deadpool is such a game-changer. “The film has a self-deprecating tone that’s riotous.
