Shocking, we know.
Liefeld, in a new interview, suggested that the film will change the way comic book movies are made and viewed, and said that he can’t comprehend how a chunk of the audience could NOT fall in love with it.
“When I read the script in 2010, my mouth was on the floor, it was the R-rated spectacle you’re going to see in February.” Liefeld told USA Today. “And for it to go this long without them screwing with the script is a miracle. It’s a credit to [screen writers] Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick’s genius.”
He added, “The movie is a powerhouse. It’s raw … I don’t know how you come out of the theater as someone between the age of 18-30 without this being your favorite movie.”
We’ll find out of the moviegoing public shares his enthusiasm soon: Deadpool is due in theaters in February.
