Homework #5

      I have always loved this poster for the Deadpool movie let alone the entire marketing campaign for it. This poster obviously does not focus on the psycho murdering anti-hero part of Deadpool, but rather the part of the story where he falls in love with the girl of his dreams, even if this is just some backstory for where he was currently in the movie. I also really like how misleading it is since it looks like it would belong to a cheesy hallmark channel romantic comedy, so someone who went into the theater that day was in for a surprise. The release date especially helps out with this since Valentine's day is exactly when you would expect for those kinds of movies to come out. I really enjoy this poster because it focus less on the main story and more on the events leading up to when the plot in Deadpool actually takes place, but I also enjoy how misleading it is since this kind of advertising fits with the character the movie is about so well.
