In a recent interview with GQ, GuardiansoftheGalaxyVol3 director JamesGunn revealed his top 5 comicbookmovies. Is he right? DT investigates.
James Gunn has been a busy man lately. Between making the final installment of his Guardians MCU trilogy, the financially successful Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, and gearing up to make his first DC Studios project, Superman: Legacy, the popular director certainly has every right to not indulge in such unimportant pastimes such as eating or breathing.
Gunn, of course, is absolutely right; there’s a reason why Deadpool was a massive hit when it was released in 2016, and why people still love the movie and the character to this day. While the “doesn’t-take-itself-too-seriously” approach has been done to death in the superhero genre, Deadpool never feels stale. That’s due, in large part, to star Ryan Reynolds, who finally found the right role to channel his nervous energy into and become the leading man he always wanted to be.
3. A History of Violence Yes, it’s another “wait, this was a comic book?” movie, but in A History of Violence‘s case, it was published as a graphic novel by Paradox Press and, later, Vertigo Comics, so it qualifies. The story concerns one Tom Stall, a seemingly ordinary Indiana family man who stops a violent robbery at his restaurant by coldly and efficiently killing the robbers.
