The humor might be off but the violence is going to be great

That's about as perfect of a replacement as you could hope for in this scenario.

Same writing team along with Ryan having a large part in the movies production. Doubt it'll be any different.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
I'm OK with that.

At least the action will be great.
But dude doesnt really have a lot of experience actually directing so its hard to judge if this will work out good or not.

Nice.
Also I won't accept any X-Force movie unless it's the Remender Uncanny lineup.

So the writing is the same but the action will be better? Somehow Fox might have the second best comic franchise, with only Captain America being better (to me anyway). Considering where we were after X3 and X-Men Origins: Wolverine (and how much of a rotten streak Ryan Reynolds had), that's almost unfathomable.

Upgrade imo. John Wick looked great and had a smaller budget then Deadpool.

Talk about an excellent choice! The action is gonna be sick.
My only concern is if David Leitch will be able to handle the comedy as well as Miller did. Then again, it's the same writing team and Reynolds clearly holds a lot of power in this process, so I'm not too worried about that.

So is he official signed in to direct or just a frontrunner? I'm confused.

yeah, it's the same news from the other thread, he's not hired yet

Good news for the fans. Deadpool's humor got old pretty quickly for me so I'm kinda disappointed. The action will be incredible for sure but I would prefer for this director to be doing something else.

Action scenes will be heavy and brutal. Nice.
Variety jumped the gun.
Would be a good choice, the guy can direct the fuck out of action, the writers and Reynolds are more than apt at bringing the comedy aspects.

lol at everyone jizzing their pants... he co-directed john wick. Chad Stahelski is credited as the director of the movie. Also, that's literally the only thing he has done in terms of directing that we can base judgement on since his new movie isn't even out yet.
